A Relentless Pursuit for Love novel Chapter 200

Chapter 200

Sage iced Leah’s swollen hands on the way to the hospital as she shook her head. “How did you end up getting hurt for beating up someone else? Look at your hands, they’re swollen like a pig’s feet,” said Sage. Hunter felt embarrassed for Leah as Leah smiled wryly. “That was my first time beating someone up, I have no idea either. But hey, that woman’s face was ten times more swelled up than my hands!” Sage looked up at Leah. Although her hands were in bad shape, she was looking more alive and refreshed than ever.

Hunter noticed that too, as though the gloomy clouds above her head finally disappeared, and her traumas were slowly recovering. Sage caressed her sister’s head, “Are you satisfied now?” Leah nodded her head happily. She laid on her sister’s shoulders with ice on her hands as she spoke, “Sage, I hated that woman with all my guts. She caused my mother’s death, took my father away, and bullied me for years. Although violence is not a solution, when I saw her disgusting face, I thought of the times when she held me up in the basement and I.” Leah paused for a moment before continuing, “I lifted my palm, and slapped her across the face again and again. All the humiliation she caused me, slowly disappeared with each slap I gave her. It was exhilarating and freeing! Am I the villain here?” Hunter laughed and said, “You tend to become more naughty the more you go near this woman. It’s normal.” Sage looked up at him and said, “Leave us alone.” Hunter made a gesture of him zipping up his mouth, and Leah laughed at him.

Moments later, Sage said with a muted tone, “How do you define good from the bad? I’d rather be a villain if being good means I have to be bullied.” Sage never said she was perfect. She just wanted to have a clear conscience. Sage arrived at the hospital, and she met Seth.

Seth rushed to the hospital as soon as he received the news about Tilly. That was the junior artist that was almost assaulted by Zane. She got beaten up badly by Gwyneth’s bodyguards.

Tilly was badly injured. Her face was almost recognizable with blood all over. Bruises covered her entire body, and she suffered multiple soft tissue damage. It’s no wonder Ivan threw a huge fit.

“I’m so sorry. It’s our responsibility to protect you, and it’s my fault as the owner of the company.”

Sage apologized profusely to Tilly, and she continued, “The two bodyguards that hit you were also badly beaten up by Ivan and the other security guards. You may consider the solutions that I’m about to offer you here. One, you can sue Zane and Gwyneth and the cost will be fully borne by the company. You may also terminate your contract with Norastar Entertainment anytime you wish.” Tilly looked at Seth, and then asked, “Will I win if I decided to sue them? Will they go to prison?”

Seth explained the possible outcome to her, “Zane didn’t do anything constructive to hurt you, I’m afraid that the cops won’t build a case against him. As for Gwyneth, she could blame it on the bodyguards, and she could accuse you of seducing Zane initially, and she was only trying to teach you a lesson.” Seth looked at her and said again, “This won’t be good for your reputation. You’re not well known yet, and the netizens won’t have a good impression of you. Plus the bodyguards will only be locked up a few days.”
