Chapter 232 Punishment
Chapter 232 Punishment
All people turned to look at Leo with different expressions.
Suddenly, Leo became the target of all people.
Caroline’s expression also changed slightly with a sense of worry passed over. She knew Ewan was
referring to Marcel, who got seriously injured after Leo beat him to save her.
Actually, it wasn’t Leo who had beaten Marcel. Leo had called Millie at that time. Millie was the eldest
girl in the Henderson family. Naturally, no one dared go against her and allowed her to beat Marcel into
serious injury.
Rebecca suddenly stiffed and her eyes were full of anxiety, saying, “Don’t be mad. Is there any
misunderstanding in this thing?”
“Misunderstanding? What kind of misunderstanding?”
Ewan sneered and remarked, “It’s the Ford family’s rule to take revenge. We have to handle this thing NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
properly.”
William took a step forward and looked at Ewan fearlessly, saying, “Leo won’t beat someone out of no
reason. He took action because your younger son did something terrible.”
“His younger son added drugs in my wine to revenge!”
Caroline stood out bravely at this time and told the public the truth.
However, Benedict sneered and remarked, “Do you think people will believe you? Marcel is my brother.
Why will he try to frame up his sister-in-law?”
“That’s real!” Caroline got so anxious that she couldn’t stop stamping.
When she was about to continue, a hand suddenly stopped her to reveal the truth.
Caroline turned around and found Leo was shaking head towards her with gentle look. Leo remarked,
“There is no need for you to continue. We will find ways to teach them a lesson if they really have done
something wrong.”
Caroline opened her eyes widely and looked at Benedict in astonishment.
Leo could sense that Benedict had a homicidal intent towards him. Benedict simply wanted to use what
happened to Marcel to put them in dilemma.
Benedict must have known what happened that night. The reason why he didn’t show up was because
he wanted to be the man behind the scene.
First, he wanted to teach his brother a lesson. Second, he wanted to take revenge on Leo via this thing.
He tried to achieve two purposes.
Leo also turned around to look at Ewan and asked, “What will you do if I refuse to give you
explanation?”
Ewan’s eyes were cold when he asked, “Do you think I can do nothing to you with a big figure in the
Henderson family to protect you?”
Leo laughed out loudly. It seemed the Hudson family didn’t realize he was the big figure behind the
scene.
“Dear relative, we have no relation with that loser.
You can do anything to deal with him, but don’t be mad at us.”
Rebecca got extremely anxious. She thought for a while, then she crossed the crowd and raised up her
hand to slap Leo.
“You’re such a loser. All you know is to find trouble!”
Slap…
However, before she could hit Leo, Rebecca got slapped first. Half of her cheek slowly swelled up.
Suddenly, all people turned silence, looking at Caroline who took action in astonishment.
Even Leo slightly changed his expression.
Rebecca covered her face. She looked at Caroline, whose face was already covered with tears, the
next moment, she burst out shouting.
“What’s wrong with you? How dare you beat me?”
“Yes, I dare. Have you ever thought that you’re the one who did wrong things?”
Caroline’s rims of eyes became wet as she looked at Rebecca in frustration, saying, “It was Marcel who
added drug in my cup. If it were not Leo, I will be raped by him. Why are you going to hit him instead of
expressing thanks?”
“Besides, you don’t even care about me after I get beaten so hard. How can you marry me to that
vicious family just for our family’s good? Am I still you daughter?”
“I am so jealous that you’re my mother!”
Caroline got more and more excited as she remarked. She almost cried out to say the last sentence.
Her eyelids already got swelled up as tears running down widely on her face.
Leo was also moved. That was why he decided to help Caroline to get out from the wedding with the
Hudson family.
Caroline really had changed to another person.
“I am so jealous that you’re my mother!”
What her words meant was that she would even kill Rebecca if she didn’t give birth to her! And this was
Caroline’s true thought.
Rebecca was startled and couldn’t say anything out.
William pulled her back and scolded, “Don’t mess around here!”
After learning what happened, Rebecca pretended to cry when saying, “I have raised her up, but now
she dares beat me. What have I done wrong? Just let me die…”
However, no one showed her mercy.
Ewan and Benedict showed a more and more dark look, especially Benedict, who frowned extremely
tight.
How could his future wife defend another man? It really embarrassed him.
“Caroline, you used to hate Leo the most and wished him to die! Why do you defend him now?”
Benedict scolded with glare.
“It’s the wrong thing I have done in my life and the thing I regret the most.”
Caroline showed a bitter smile and noted, “Is it too late for me to get sobered?”
She found she was a joke. There were chances for her to win her life.
However, she had pushed away those chances again and again.
If she treated Leo nicely in the past, would things be different now?
“How dare you!”
Benedict carried a gloom face and shouted out, “You’re going to be my wife, but you still go against me
for many times. Do you think that I can do nothing to you?”
“What are you going to do with her?”
With cold voice, Leo slowly walked towards Benedict in sharp eyes.
Suddenly, Benedict changed another expression. Astonishment also passed over Ewan’s eyes as he
stared at this young man in amazement.
Leo’s look was extremely cold at this moment.
Some people could even see the scene of his killing in Leo’s eyes.
“If you’re going to charge me, I will charge you first!”
Leo showed sharp eyes to strike Benedict. He walked towards him and remarked in a cold voice.
“I have reminded you to treat her nicely that day. Have you done things as you promised?”
Hearing Leo’s words, Caroline was touched with tears running down, while Benedict got scared a lot.
Soon, Benedict calmed himself and also showed Leo sharp eyes, saying, “She’s my wife and I can do
anything I want with her. Even the whole Ford family can’t do anything to me, not to mention you.”
Benedict’s words were extremely bold. He completely went against the rules for couples to get along.
Caroline looked pale with her body trembling in feat. Although angry, William didn’t dare say anything.
As for Benedict, his expression turned to sheer sarcasm in the end. His father was by his side and he
didn’t believe Leo could do anything to him.
The Hudson family had already broadened their market in Emerdale. It was easy for them to keep such
situation.
What would happen even if they have offended the big figure behind the Henderson family? The
Hudson family was already in its thrive and couldn’t be shaken easily!
Caroline already became useless. She only deserved to be the servant after getting married to the
Hudson family!
Leo showed deep eyes and didn’t seem to be scared at all. He remarked, “Yes, I can’t do anything with
you, but we will learn a lesson.”
Benedict laughed out loudly and noted, “My father is a member of HY Business Association and the
Hudson family has already entered the Emerdale market. Another family will thrive in Emerdal, and that
will be my family. Besides, we also own power in Sallton and Winham. Who will be disrespectful to us
at that time?”
“Is it really true?”
After Benedict’s speech, the voice of disdainful sneer came outside the Ford family’s courtyard.
Forrest strode forward in suit angrily with a bunch of people.
