Chapter 1663 Too Light A Sentence

In answer to Lorraine’s confused expression, Sonia continued, “Since I was slapped across the face, how about I slap you back, and we’ll call it even?”

Lorraine looked at Sonia in disbelief. That’s it?

“What’s the matter? You don’t like the idea?”

“It’s not that,” Lorraine answered helplessly. “I just think it’s too light a punishment.”

“We’ll make it ten slaps, then,” Sonia said before turning toward Lawrence. “Father, I was slapped a few times. Let her slap herself ten times as her punishment.”

Although Lawrence agreed that a sentence of that nature was too light, he was unwilling to overrule his daughter’s decision.

Upon obtaining Lawrence’s assent, Sonia had Lorraine begin her sentence.

“Do it yourself. You can go easy,” Sonia muttered when she was close enough to Lorraine.

Sonia’s kindness touched Lorraine. Feeling incredibly guilty about the pain she had subjected the former to during the kidnapping, the latter gave herself ten tight slaps.

Sonia frowned at the sight of the red palm prints on Lorraine’s fair skin. Is she stupid? I told her to go easy. Why did she hit herself so hard?

“Enough.” Lawrence looked at her swollen cheeks. “Let’s consider this matter resolved. We won’t pursue it anymore.”

Lorraine sighed in relief. She knew they had only let her go as easily as that out of respect for Arielle. Because of that, she found her appreciation of Arielle rising. I would still be on the run if it were not for her.

Aaron raised his voice and said, “I am thrilled and honored to continue Father’s legacy. I pledge to improve the quality of medical care in Turlen so that our people will no longer fear any diseases again.”

Lawrence initially intended to refute Nancy’s words but decided to remain silent after hearing Aaron’s. It is good for the king to have his own opinions.

Night descended quickly.

Illuminated by the moonlight, Lorraine handed the flash drive in her hand to the contact person before turning around to leave.

Just as the contact person was about to enter the palace, somebody clapped a hand over her mouth from behind.
