Braelynn and Richard were very surprised when they saw William come in, so Richard asked, “Why are you here?”
“I wanted to see the drama unfold with my own eyes,” William replied with a smile. He looked around the room and said, “What a pity. So much delicious food has been wasted!”
Richard snorted and said, “Is that a problem? How can you pretend to be innocent when you are the one who started it?”
“I’m not playing innocent. I came here today to avenge my wife.” William sat down. “Didn’t Angel plot with Azalea to burn my wife when she just came back? I’m here to return the favour. Well, the soup was boiling hot just now. Hahaha, serves her right!”
“Indeed, but have you thought about what to do today? It’s impossible for the Floyd family not to ask about it when they see Angel.”
“Let them ask about it. This matter is very simple and I already have a way to deal with it.”
William took out his cellphone with a smile and took out a few photos. “Look at this.”
The photo showed that Angel was throwing herself into Richard’s arms. The photographer captured the photo at the perfect angle. Although that did not happen at all, the photo clearly showed that Angel was in Richard’s embrace.
Richard took the phone and looked at the picture clearly while he scoffed, “William, are you using me again? Do you like taking advantage of me that much?”
“I’m not taking advantage of you, am I? Angel did throw herself in your arms at that time. With this photo as proof, it’s reasonable for Braelynn to beat her up because she’ll be labelled as a relationship wrecker.”
Braelynn looked at the photo on her mobile phone and burst into laughter. “William! You’re awesome!”
Richard glared at William and said, “He’s not smart at all. How can he use me like this without batting an eye?”
William knew how upset Richard was right now, so he smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll apologize, okay? I’ve already ordered food in the private room next door. Since none of us has eaten lunch, let’s go somewhere else to eat!”
“Do you even have an appetite? I feel disgusted whenever I think of Angel’s appearance. I can’t eat anymore.”
Braelynn rolled her eyes when he heard Richard’s words. “You can leave if you don’t want to eat. My brother and I will have our meal.”
“I don’t want to leave. I’ve been taken advantage of and I didn’t get anything good out of it. I still have to eat something, right?”
William laughed. “Alright, stop arguing. Let’s go eat and head to the hospital to watch what will happen.”
Meanwhile, Angel was sent to the emergency room while she cried loudly in the hospital. A large part of her body was burned and her clothes were stuck to the open wounds. She would feel a sharp pain whenever she touched her wounds, so she kept shrieking in agony.
The doctor frowned because he had to bear with Angel’s screams and it took him a lot of effort to treat her burns.
Angel had been screaming during the whole process until her voice was hoarse. Deborah rushed to the hospital with a group of people after she received the phone call from Angel. When Angel came out with her whole face covered in bruises, Deborah was so scared that she took a step back, “This… Angel?”
“Grandma! Sob…” Angel began to cry in a hoarse voice.
“It’s really you? How did you become like this? Who beat you?” Angel looked fine when she went out of the house, but her appearance changed too drastically. Deborah couldn’t accept it and she was shaking with anger.
“It’s Braelynn! She beat me up! She’s too vicious! Oh… I was almost beaten to death!”
“Braelynn? Why did she hit you?”
“I don’t know! I don’t know why she rushed in like that and hit me. It hurts so much!” Angel cried in a hoarse voice. It was really painful and she wasn’t pretending at all.
“That’s too much! Where are the bodyguards? Where are they?” Deborah questioned angrily.
Angel did not bring bodyguards when she went out to meet Richard, but nothing would change even if they were around. She was doomed to suffer today.
The bodyguards who followed Deborah immediately answered when they heard Deborah’s question. “Miss didn’t bring bodyguards when she went out!”
“Why didn’t you do that?” Deborah asked. However, she felt that it was useless to ask Angel now since the girl’s face was purple with bruises. She could only comfort Angel, “Braelynn has gone too far. I will definitely seek justice for you.”
Deborah was not joking around and she immediately called Fandrey. “Dear, Angel was beaten by Braelynn!”
“Ah? This… why did that happen?” Fandrey asked in surprise.
“I don’t know the reason, but Braelynn beat her up badly. Her face is bruised and covered with scars while her body was burnt. It was a terrible sight! Braelynn was too vicious! You must seek justice for Angel!”
Fandrey was also very angry when he heard Deborah’s words. “I understand. I’ll come over now to see what’s going on.”
Fandrey hung up the phone and went to Callum’s office next door. “Your mother called and said that Angel was beaten by Braelynn. Her wounds are very serious, so we have to go to the hospital.”
Callum was also shocked when he heard this. “Why did Braelynn suddenly beat Angel up?”
“I don’t know, so let’s go to the hospital and check it out.” Callum got up to go to the hospital with Fandrey when Sammuel came and said, “Sirs, William is here.”
They both found it strange when they heard that William was looking for them. He wouldn’t visit without a reason, right?
William came personally after Braelynn beat Angel. He wouldn’t be here for that matter, right?”
William had already appeared at the door of Callum’s office just as Fandrey thought to himself. “Grandpa! Uncle! Good afternoon!”
“Hello, William! Have a seat!” Fandrey asked William to sit down and asked someone to serve tea. William then waved his hand and stopped him. “I’ll skip the tea. I’ve come to see both of you because I have something to tell you.”
“What is it?” Fandrey asked.
“You should also know about the conflict between Braelynn and Angel, right?”
William went straight to the point, so Fandrey didn’t hide anything, “Your grandmother told me that Angel was disfigured by Braelynn. What is going on? Why is Braelynn so cruel to Angel?”
“It’s because of Richard!” William blurted out.
“Huh? What does this have to do with Richard?” Callum was confused.
“William, just tell me what’s going on!”
