Chapter 49
Only I Can Bully You Raegan expected an excruciating pain after the stick hit her body.
But to her surprise, she didn't feel anything.
And the strangest thing was she seemed to be covered with a protective shield.
Confused, Raegan immediately raised her head to see the situation.
Then she saw Mitchel covering her.
It turned out that he rushed over and blocked the blow for her.
Perhaps he was afraid of crushing her, so he propped his elbows on the floor.
But as a result, they were scraped, and they were bleeding now.
After making sure that Raegan was not hurt, Mitchel stood up.
His deep-set black eyes were full of terrifying cruelty.
Then, a loud bang sounded.
It was as if something heavy fell to the floor.
It turned out that the maid holding the stick was kicked away and fell heavily to the floor.
Of course, the other two maids wouldn't be spared either.
"ARE In the blink of an eye, the three maids curled up on the floor, screaming in pain.
Their shrill screams sounded so horrible that Tessa and Sariah couldn't help holding their breaths.
They didn't dare to make a sound.
Mitchel walked back to Raegan.
He pulled her up, pulled off the apron from her mouth, and held her in his arms.
He kissed her cheek tenderly, ignoring the pain in the back of his head.
Then, he lowered his head and satirized, "How can you be so useless this time? Can you only be cruel in front of me?” When Raegan was angry at him, she dared to beat him, kick him, and even bite him.
No other person dared to do such things to him.
Only Raegan was brave enough to do it all.
But at this moment, she was like a weak lamb lying on the floor.
Why was she bold enough to hit him? Was it because she was sure he wouldn't do anything to her? Raegan listened to Mitchel’s ridicule without making a fuss.
For some reason, her tense nerves suddenly relaxed in his embrace.
She sobbed aggrievedly.
God knew how desperate she was just now, not for herself, but for her baby.
She thought she would lose her baby without even seeing it.
She had assumed no one would come to save her since nobody knew she was taken away by the maid.
But of all people, it was Mitchel who showed up.
She was utterly surprised.
How could it be him? Why was he here? Didn't she tell herself not to love him anymore? But just now, she knew that she still had feelings for him.
But now, he unexpectedly came and saved her and her baby.
He protected her and her baby, making her owe him a favor.
When Mitchel saw Raegan's tearful face, he felt like his heart was stung by something.
He loosened his grip on her waist, looked at her carefully, and asked anxiously, "Are you hurt somewhere?" But Raegan didn't respond.
She was so shocked that her mind was still blank now.
She couldn't control her emotions at all.
So, she just kept crying until her whole body shook.
When Mitchel saw her crying so hard, his eyes darkened.
"Tell me what's wrong.
Are you hurt?" Raegan couldn't tell exactly where she was hurt.
She seemed to feel pain everywhere.
And she was so agerieved that her heart ached even more.
After her life hung by a thread, all the grievances she had suppressed in the past few days almost exploded.
Mitchel had never believed in whatever she said.
He even accused and criticized her.
But in her most desperate moment, he came to save her.
“Why it's you?" Raegan asked between sobs.
Mitchel's eyes narrowed.
He wanted to ask her why it couldn't be him.
Was she waiting for someone else to save her? Was she waiting for Henley? Mitchel wanted to ask Raegan these questions.
But when he saw that her delicate face was full of tears, he suppressed the urge to do so.
Instead, he just hugged her tighter.
He frowned and said coldly, "Raegan, always remember that only I can bully you.” The way he said this, his tone wasn't good.
But at this time, it sounded particularly heart-warming.
Raegan cried even harder.
She didn’t think about anything anymore.
She threw herself into Mitchel's arms and hugged his waist tightly.
What she did was just a natural reaction of someone who needed comfort after experiencing a near- death situation.
Raegan had no idea that the way she hugged Mitchel shocked him.
His cold heart jolted.
He was moved.
The fights, doubts, and suspicions in the past few days seemed to be atomized by her hug.
Mitchel just let Raegan hug him as she continued to sob.
Then, a thought came to his mind.
As long as Raegan was willing to stay by his side, he might let bygones be bygones and ignore who she liked in the past.
At this moment, Tessa’s voice sounded, bringing Mitchel back to his senses.
"Mitchel, you don’t know this bitch.” Mitchel glared at her coldly.
Tessa immediately changed her tone when she continued, "Raegan broke my grandma's favorite porcelain vase.
She also had a tryst with someone else behind your back.
Look at her dress.
It was torn up.
She is so shameless!” When Raegan heard Tessa's words, she raised her head.
How could she let Tessa continue to slander her? She pointed at the maid on the floor and said, "She tripped me, so I..." Raegan was not able to finish her sentence because Mitchel suddenly held her face.
He looked at her face and examined it carefully.
Her delicate face was bruised, and the red slap marks looked dazzling in his eyes.
The expression on his face immediately changed.
He asked in a cold and cruel tone, "Who did this?" Raegan was caught off guard by the question.
She was speechless for a moment.
And when she raised her eyes, she seemed to see a touch of tenderness in Mitchel's eyes.
Was she suffering from anemia again? It must be because she was being delusional.
Raegan no longer had time to think about anything.
She raised her hand and pointed at Tessa.
Mitchel's eyes turned even colder.
When he fixed his eyes on Tessa, Tessa couldn't help shivering in fear.
She hurriedly explained, "Mitchel, Raegan disrespected my grandma, and she did something shameless in this house.
I only helped you teach her a lesson.” After saying this, she subconsciously leaned closer to Sariah.
She was still trembling.
Mitchel raised his eyebrows and said indifferently, "Oh, you helped me teach her a lesson? I should thank you then." Tessa was relieved to hear this.
She knew Mitchel would never take Raegan seriously.
After all, Raegan was nothing in his eyes.
Besides, Sariah was on her side.
This boosted her confidence.
Suddenly, a creepy smile appeared on Mitchel’s face.
"Okay.
Let's deal with it one by one." Before Tessa could figure out what Mitchel meant, she saw him turn to the maids on the floor.
Then he ordered coldly, "Break their hands." He spoke very calmly, but his tone was enough to make people feel scared.
As soon as the bodyguards on standby outside the door heard this, they immediately came in, grabbed the maids one after another, and broke their hands ruthlessly.
Their faces were expressionless.
And the way they did it, it was as if they were only breaking a piece of firewood.
"ARE" The room was filled with the maids’ painful screams.
The bodyguards' method was so ruthless that even Raegan couldn't help but look away. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
She couldn't afford to watch them.
But she didn't pity them at all.
These wicked people were cunning.
They had been helping Sariah, and she didn't know how many people had suffered at their hands.
They only deserved such retribution.
At this moment, Sariah could no longer suppress her anger.
With a flushed face, she thumped the table with her hand and shouted, "You...
How dare you!" She was so angry that she coughed violently.
She couldn't say anything more.
The bodyguards had already dragged those maids out of the room.
Mitchel ignored Sariah.
He didn't care about her attitude at all.
His focus was on Tessa currently.
He stared at her coldly.
Even the atmosphere in the room seemed to have drastically dropped because of his cold gaze.
Tessa lowered her head.
She couldn't afford to meet Mitchell's gaze.
Finally, she understood what he meant by his words.
Since Mitchel had finished dealing with the maids, she was next.
She thought Mitchel was crazy.
Tessa was so scared that she immediately hid behind Sariah.
She thought Sariah could be her shield because no matter how arrogant Mitchel was, he wouldn't dare to hurt Sariah.
If he dared to beat Sariah, and the news about it spread outside, he would be criticized by the public as an ungrateful person.
At this moment, Sariah stopped coughing.
Her face darkened, and she looked terrible at the moment.
Mitchel dared to disable her maids in front of her.
He even attempted to hurt her granddaughter.
Sariah found Mitchel's arrogance very unacceptable.
Sariah looked at Mitchel and said solemnly, "Mitchel, Tessa is your cousin! Are you going to hurt her because of that woman?" "Yes, I never forget that she is my cousin." Mitchel didn't refute Sariah.
Sariah felt a little relieved.
She opened her mouth and was about to continue her words.
But before she could speak, Mitchel stared at Tessa with piercing eyes and said coldly, "I will give you two options.
First, T will also break your hands.
Second, slap yourself until your face is red and swollen.
Your choice." For Mitchel, he was already kind enough to give Tessa a choice.
Otherwise, Tessa would end up like those wicked maids.
Tessa was too dumbfounded to react for a while.
Then she grabbed Sariah's arm tightly and cried fearfully, "Grandma, please help me.” Sariah was so angry that she almost fainted.
She thought Mitchel was going too far.
She threw a teacup at Mitchel and scolded, "You bastard! How dare you disrespect your elder!"
