“No matter what you owe Nicole, you have to pay it back.”

He said that as two bodyguards stepped forward to hold Angela, she hadn’t even reacted yet when Cruz’s assistant walked up to her.

“Cruz, what were you doing!?”

Angela struggled frantically, feeling instinctively that something was wrong, but Cruz said nothing.

The next second, the assistant raised his hand and slapped her directly in the face. With a loud thud, her face was knocked askew, causing her eyes to widen in disbelief.

But before she could ask her question, the assistant’s hand was already slapping her face repeatedly, causing blood to trickle from the corner of her mouth as she screamed in agony.

“Cruz! What are you doing, it hurts so much, Cruz!”

The more she screamed, the harder the assistant’s hands became, and Cruz showed no mercy at all.

“Cruz, is that also your doing? Nicole is not here, you don’t count for anything, yet you dare to threaten her.”

His eyes narrowed, and then Angela understood that Cruz was actually hitting her for Nicole!

Why is this, why is it for Nicole!

Angela was shocked to the point of being unable to react. She had been.

slapped 99 times before the bodyguard finally let her go. By that time, her face was swollen and bruised, blood dripping from the corners of her mouth. But what shocked her even more were the words that Cruz said.

next.

“Just doing this is not enough, what you have done during this time ist much more excessive than this, Angela, you really have a lot of nerve.”

“Now that Nicole has really left, you are of no use to me anymore.”

The man’s deep words fell, making her suddenly understand something.

But it was already too late.

Without a moment of rest, the bodyguard held Angela down, pried open her mouth, and fed her an entire jar of peanut butter. Soon, Angela broke out in a rash all over her body and began to breathe rapidly.

“Cruz, I was allergic…”

She gasped for breath, her whole body itching and aching, but the bodyguard held her tightly, preventing her from escaping. She was forced to eat more peanut butter until she rolled her eyes back and was on the brink of death from the allergic reaction. Only then did Cruz allow his assistant to go get the medicine.

Angela was thrown to the ground, completely lifeless.

“This was your punishment for slandering Nicole and making yourself allergic.”

Cruz’s words echoed like a voice from hell, “And you brought thugs to bully her, too. Hands off.”

Angela didn’t even have a chance to explain before the punches and kicks. rained down on her like drops of rain. The bodyguards were much stronger than the thugs, and each kick landed on her vulnerable body.

With a crack, her rib broke, and she suddenly spat out blood, crying and begging for mercy.

“Cruz, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please forgive me!”

The man remained unmoved.

“Where do you think you are, Angela? You owe more than just this. Before Nicole comes back, you will have to endure the pain she went through.”

He said, turned around and left, but the bodyguard’s actions did not stop, still constantly checking the person curled up on the ground.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Angela felt like her whole body was about to fall apart, and then she passed out.

Upon waking up, I was already at the hospital.

She weakly opened her eyes and saw the tube on her arm, she was actually having blood drawn!

Angela wanted to scream and struggle, but her limbs were tied to the bed and she couldn’t move. She could only watch helplessly as bag after bag of blood filled up. She felt dizzy and began to show signs of being in danger.

“Mr. Yarbrough, if you keep smoking, this young lady will die, the nurse said anxiously.”

“Smoke, keep smoking. This is what she owes Nicole, Cruz said coldly.”

Angela looked up weakly, tears sliding down from the corners of her eyes.

At that moment, she finally understood Cruz, his heart clearly belonged only to Nicole! But then, what about all those ambiguities, all those tenderness? It was obvious that he didn’t reject them himself, and he
