Despite her late initiation into romantic relationships, Carrie has grown increasingly mature compared
to before.
Blushing deeply, as if she had applied blush to her cheeks, Carrie
shyly sought refuge in her manâs embrace.
âStay still and let me give you a kissâ¦â
Ryanâs eyes were filled with affection as he gently held Carrieâs chin with his fingertips.
Carrie found herself overwhelmed by Ryanâs kisses, her head spinning as she surrendered. Her eyes
squinted in submission, allowing the
man to take her.
As the temperature in the car rose, almost reaching a boiling point, Ryan suddenly heard a crisp âsnapâ
in his earphones, nearly perforating his eardrums. He paused his movements and furrowed
his brows as he removed the earphones.
âR-Ryan, is that my sister?â Carrie clung tightly to the manâs waist, staring at the screen in disbelief as
she witnessed Bethany endure
Yasminâs relentless slaps.
âYeah. Who else could appear so hideous other than your unfortunate sister?â Ryan could not help but
feel repulsed by the sight of Bethany
enduring Yasminâs ruthless beatings.
Carrie watched in horror as Yasmin grabbed Bethany by the hair and
cruelly slapped her..
After a few slaps, Bethanyâs once proud and beautiful face swelled into a pigâs head. There was blood
dripping from her lips and nose, and her eyes were nearly swollen shut.
As Ryanâs bodyguard with a background in martial arts, Yasmin was
known to be brutal.
âIâm sorry⦠Please stop⦠Ah⦠Please stopâ¦â Bethany cried out in pain, her words barely coherent.
The more Bethany pleaded, the more amused Ryan became.
âWhy⦠Why are you hitting Bethany?â
Carrie looked around anxiously, shaking Ryanâs muscular arm forcefully. âYou must make Yasmin stop!â
âWhy should I, darling?â Ryan gently caressed Carrieâs cheek.
Darling?
Hearing this endearment, Carrie blushed and pursed her lips tightly.
âI told you, not only will I defend you, but Iâll also make sure those who bully you face dire
consequences.â
Ryanâs eyes flashed with an icy resolve. âI cannot forgive Bethany for everything she has done to you.
Allowing her to live in comfort for so long has been lenient enough. Whatever harm she has caused
you, Iâll ensure she experiences it ten times and a hundred times over. This is
merely the beginning.â
Carrie felt her chest tighten.
While the man in front of her still showed affection and gentleness,
his gaze had taken on a different tone.
Carrie knew that Ryan only showed this side of himself in front of her. In the presence of others, he
could be as terrifying as a beast.
Sometimes, she could not understand or agree with his actions, but it did not change the fact that she
loved him.
âDarling, just relax and enjoy the show.â
Ryan hooked Carrieâs slender waist, pulling her close. âItâs boring to always stay at home. Stepping out
for some fresh air and excitement can lift your spirits.â
As Carrie watched Bethany endure the merciless beatings, her heart filled more with terror than
anything else. With wide, pleading eyes and beads of cold sweat on her forehead, Carrie begged,
âRyan, please spare my sister! Let her go, please! Sheâs my sister! Mommyâs favorite daughter!â
Carrie kept pleading and shaking Ryanâs arm, feeling overwhelmed
and helpless.
Suddenly, Ryan seemed to realize something was off and swiftly pulled Carrie into a tight embrace,
then commanded Yasmin, âStop!â
âYes, sir.â Yasmin complied, mechanically releasing her grip on Bethanyâs hair.
