Chapter 515
“Dad!” Zachary staggered back in disbelief, unable to accept that his father was really going to harm him.
“Which hand of yours touched Arabella?”
Zachary’s voice trembled as he watched his father approaching step by step, “Dad, I won’t do it again.”
“I asked which hand touched Arabella!”
“Dad!” Zachary trembled in fear, tears streaming down his face.
Soon after, a scream echoed from the garden.
Romeo covered Arabella’s eyes, speaking softly, “Don’t look.”
The sight was too bloody.
Arabella moved his hand away, seeing Zachary’s hand bleeding.
Although the tendon was not cut, a long scar was left on his arm. Ordinary doctors probably couldn’t help; he might be scarred for life.
“Mr. McMillian, are you satisfied with this outcome?” Mr. Panter asked after the punishment, not checking his son’s condition first but instead bending over to ask Romeo.
Seeing his humble demeanor, Romeo’s voice remained cold, “You’re asking the wrong person.”
Mr. Panter turned to Arabella quickly, “Ms. Bella, is this acceptable? Can you spare us? I will continue to discipline this unfilial son when we get home!” “Hmm.” Arabella responded indifferently, “You can go now.”
Mr. Panter bowed his head immediately, “Thank you, Ms. Bella, we’ll leave now and won’t bother you again.”
Yolanda pretended to help Zachary up but was pushed away by Mrs. Panter before she could touch him, “You bitch, it’s all your fault!”
Yolanda was taken aback, “Auntie.”
“If it wasn’t for you stirring things up, why would Zachary go after Arabella, trying to stand up for your family?”
Mrs. Panter and her husband helped their son up, clearly despising Yolanda!
Attlee and Olga signaled their daughter not to interfere, but as they were about to leave, they heard Romeo
say, “Wait.”
The Panter family returned in fear, thinking Romeo had changed his mind, “Mr. McMillian.”
Didn’t Arabella agree to let them leave?
“I didn’t say you could leave.”
Realizing Romeo was addressing the Murphy family, the Panthers sighed in relief and quickly left with their son.
Attlee looked at Romeo fearfully, his voice filled with humility and appeasement, “Mr. McMillian, do you have any other instructions?” Instead of answering his question, Romeo turned to Erlinda, “Ms. Archer, can I borrow a few of your men?”
He had only brought Carl with him tonight and was short on manpower.
Erlinda readily agreed, “No problem, use as you wish.”
Romeo spoke coldly, without any unnecessary words, “Take them away, give them a beating.”
Carl stepped forward, grabbing Attlee’s arm first.
Erlinda waved her hand, and several bodyguards stepped forward to grab the others.
“Mr. McMillian, is there a misunderstanding? We have nothing to do with tonight’s incident.”
“It was clearly the Panter boy who touched Arabella, and we didn’t do anything. Please let us go, let us go.”
“Sis, can you say something, sis?”
The sound of Yolanda’s voice annoyed Arabella. Seeing her discomfort, Romeo added, “That woman, while she’s still young, should be taught a lesson.” Arabella was somewhat surprised, not expecting Romeo to pick up on her mood, and even instructed for Yolanda to be beaten more.
The guests were shocked, not expecting to see such dramatic events at tonight’s charity gala.
As the Murphy family was taken away, Erlinda stepped onto the center stage, revealing the charming smile of a mature woman, “I declare, tonight’s charity dinner has come to a perfect end. Thank you all for your participation!”
A perfect end?
