What right does she have to slap me?
âWhat a shameless wretch! How dare you seduce my man. Today⦠Iâll let you know the consequences,â Xu Yanxi declared before lunging at Lin Wan, delivering blows.
Lin Wanâs reactions were painfully slow. By the time she responded, Xu Yanxi had already tugged at her hair and commenced hitting herself.
She yearned to retaliate but couldnât find an opportunity.
âLet me make this clear. Chen is mine. He will belong to me for the rest of his life.â
âYou, what right do you have to be here? Get out⦠Iâm the owner of this place.â
âIâm going to teach you a lesson today.â
Xu Yanxi continued to unleash curses while striking Lin Wan.
After spending the previous night with Xiao Yichen, Lin Wan was utterly drained of strength. Although she initially resisted Xu Yanxi, she realized she had no chance. Consequently, Lin Wan gave in, letting Xu Yanxi do as she pleased.
After a prolonged time, Xu Yanxi finished her venting and shoved Lin Wan to the ground.
Lin Wanâs hair was disheveled, her clothing was disarrayed, and she lay on the floor, motionless, gazing vacantly ahead.
âLin Wan, remember this. Chen and 1 grew up together, and we have a close relationship. Youâre the outsider. A shameless wretch,â Xu Yanxi warned Lin Wan. âDistance yourself from Chen as soon as possible. Iâll give you three days. Iâll certainly teach you a lesson if you havenât left this place in three days.â
With that, Xu Yanxi glared at Lin Wan fiercely before angrily storming.
Lin Wan remained on the floor. Despite knowing that Xu Yanxi had left, she tried to stand but lacked the strength to sit up.
Tears began to well up in Lin Wanâs eyes, and she couldnât hold them back.
In the afternoon, around 4.00 pm, when Auntie Li arrived at the villa to prepare dinner for Mr. Xiao and Madam, she saw the villaâs door ajar before entering.
Auntie Li felt puzzled. Why is the door left open when Madam is at home?
Although doubts swirled in her mind, Auntie Li proceeded without hesitation. She reached the entrance and spotted the person lying inside, which made her panic.
âMadam, Madamâ¦â Auntie Li shouted and rushed forward to assist Madam.
Lin Wan had lost all emotion. Her countenance was cold, and she wasnât inclined to speak when she heard Auntie Liâs call.
Auntie Li helped Madam up from the ground, and upon observing the injuries on Madamâs face, neck, and arms, she became even more bewildered. âMadam, thisâ¦â
Someone causes these injuries⦠Could it be that someone has come to the house and⦠harmed Madam?
Lin Wan, her emotions now somewhat restrained. She gazed at Auntie Li and weakly said, âAuntie Li, help me upstairs.â
âOh, alright, alright,â Auntie Li quickly responded, abiding by Madamâs wishes. She assisted her as they headed upstairs.
With Auntie Liâs support, Lin Wan went to the bedroom. After Auntie Li left, Lin Wan entered the bathroom and filled the bathtub with water. She didnât even remove her clothes, simply sinking into the bathtub.
The waterâs warmth enveloped her, but her body and heart remained frigid, locked in an icy numbness.
Downstairs, Auntie Li paced anxiously in the living room, unsure what to do.
Madam is alone upstairs. Can something happen to her? After all, she had witnessed Madamâs turbulent emotions earlier, which were extremely unstable.
After much contemplation, Auntie Li decided to call Mr. Xiao..
