Chapter 331: Chapter 331: The Weather Has Turned Cold, Let the Alden Family Go Bankrupt
The scene in the room was so dirty, Adrian Law didn’t want such things to pollute his young wife’s eyes.
The man’s large hand dominantly yet indulgently covered the girl’s lashes.
Cecilia Vaughn’s long lashes slightly trembled, feeling the warmth of Adrian Law’s palm, and her heart warmed, like the abrupt thawing of spring waters in March.
"Alright, I won’t look, but then you can only look at me."
Adrian Law gently curled his lips, his heart sweetened by his wife’s possessiveness.
"Silly Cecilia, even if the door was closed, I could have guessed the scene inside. Why sully your eyes?"
The man softly lowered his head, whispering gently in Cecilia Vaughn’s ear, his deep, elegant, cello-like magnetic voice almost more enticing than the touch of a feather.
Cecilia Vaughn’s cheeks instantly flushed red.
...
Unlike the warm scene between the two of them, the classmates staring at room C011 almost wanted to vomit their dinner!
"Oh my God, does this man have no humanity! I feel that girl is about to be played to death."
"Heavens, my eyes are ruined, ugh—"
Despite so many eyes watching, the greasy old man who could be the father of these youths continued to twist, moaning and gasping as he moved.
"Ah... my... great beauty, you are mine... give me..."
The hotel manager that Chloe Alden and Fiona Vaughn had brought in had swallowed a whole bottle of pills to display his vigor.
This was a new drug from the underground market—how could one be relieved before it was fully released?
And Katherine North, who had been tormented for nearly an hour, was breathing more out than in, her eyes lifeless, blood continuously flowing from her body, unable to even call for help.
...
Clearly, the woman was unwilling, and the boys present were incited into a burst of masculinity, extending their hands to assist.
"Beast, let me beat you to death!"
"Call the police, call for an ambulance!"
Fiona Vaughn and Chloe Alden, the instigators, were rooted to the spot, never imagining that the person they brought would do such a despicable thing to Katherine North.
The shameless old man rapidly became a punching bag, getting beaten into a pig’s head, later tossed in the hallway with a random carpet thrown over him, his features barely recognizable.
Cecilia Vaughn, with her good memory, instantly recalled that he was the man at the hotel entrance who had offered to park her car, claiming to be some hotel manager—a typical fake gentleman.
...
Though this was the outskirts, the entertainment scene was developed, and there was a public hospital nearby, so the ambulance arrived quickly,
Katherine North, who was barely alive, was promptly put on a stretcher.
Her eyes were bloodshot, lacking any previous charm, stared intently at Fiona Vaughn and Chloe Alden in the hallway, finally glancing over Cecilia Vaughn.
"You... you guys..."
Katherine North’s throat was so hoarse she could hardly speak, yet the hatred was bone-deep.
...
"Katherine, don’t be afraid... Quick, doctor! Katherine is seriously injured, you must take her away now!"
Fiona Vaughn, hair standing on end, clung to the wall unable to recall Katherine North’s gaze before leaving.
Having lived alongside Station Director Alden from ASC, she had seen a lot of dirty things in the entertainment industry, not to mention worse than just playing a woman to the point of collapse!
Katherine North herself went out to sell herself for money, now just suffering a bit...
This woman had heaps of debt outside, and Fiona thought she might as well cover the thirty thousand mess, considering it as repayment for today’s suffering.
Fiona thought coldly, but her face was full of fearful tear-tracks, as frail as a water lily swaying in the wind.
"Katherine, sob... You’ll be alright... God bless you..."
She pretended to cry in fear, praying, but her hands clenched tightly, her beautiful eyes covered by long lashes were filled with unwilling coolness.
——Why wasn’t it Cecilia Vaughn in C011; if it were Cecilia Vaughn, her life would be ruined!
Why is Cecilia Vaughn so lucky! Clearly, she should be the one scorned!
...
Unlike Fiona Vaughn’s stronger mental resolve, Chloe Alden, the spoiled miss, although usually arrogant and domineering, was now terrified, shrinking back and wanting to flee!
——She had no choice, Katherine North was brought by her, and the bottle of drugs from the underground market was also handled by her. Seeing Katherine North in this nearly dead state, it was sure to cause a big scandal!
Chloe Alden was ready to sneak away, but Adrian Law suddenly gave her a cold look.
"Eldest Miss Alden, the show isn’t over, and you want to leave?"
Chloe Alden raised her eyes to Adrian Law’s sculpted face, but had no time to admire, her heart jumped with fear.
"Adrian... Eldest Young Master Law, Katherine went to the hospital, I just want to go take care of her..."
Her words trembled, the guilt within unmistakable even to a deaf person.
"Take care? Miss Alden, how ridiculous that sounds, you know better than anyone, right?"
Adrian Law’s cold eyes slightly lifted, the coldness within sent a shiver down Chloe Alden’s spine, nearly trembling.
Chloe Alden wanted desperately to keep defending herself, trying to find an opportunity to slip away.
But soon, she saw Wyatt Law and several uniformed police officers approaching from the elevator.
"Miss Alden, we suspect your involvement in a premeditated rape case, please come with us."
Chloe Alden arrogantly extended her right middle finger towards the officers.
"How dare you arrest me! Do you have an arrest warrant? Don’t you know I’m Victor Alden’s daughter?! I..."
Chloe Alden screamed sharply, kicking wildly, leaving the officers helpless, waiting for her to calm down.
At this moment, Chloe Alden’s phone rang.
Chloe Alden immediately cried out.
"Dad! Come to The Majestic Grand Hotel and save me, Dad, they’re going to arrest me..."
But within less than half a minute, Chloe Alden’s expression changed abruptly to one of horror, she stepped backward in disbelief.
"No, Dad, don’t scare me, what’s wrong with Serene International, dropping wildly? No... impossible, why are the shareholders selling? "
Her tears burst forth instantly.
Suddenly, Chloe Alden looked at Adrian Law in shock, recalling his words.
——The weather is turning cold, let the Alden Family go bankrupt.
...
Yet Adrian Law calmly draped his arm over Cecilia Vaughn’s shoulder.
"Cecilia, the drama’s over, let’s go back to Starfall Bay."
"Okay."
Cecilia Vaughn obediently held his hand, and the two turned gracefully.
Chloe Alden stared at their departing figures, finally waking from a dream, soullessly rushing towards Adrian Law, stumbling to her knees!
"Eldest Young Master Law! Mr. Law! President Law! Please! Please spare our Alden Family—"
