An icy chill shot straight to the top of Marianne’s head.
These rich kids… were serious!
They really wanted to cripple her hand?!
Patrick’s face turned deathly pale. He couldn’t believe his wife was foolish enough to still be showing her disgust for Serena at a time like this.
He quickly stepped forward, positioning himself in front of Marianne, and smiled fawningly at Brian, even bowing his back. “Of course not, of course not. How could we possibly be displeased?”
As he spoke, he frowned and shot Marianne a fierce, warning glare.
However, the group of heirs before him remained stone-faced, their expressions cold and unmoved by his groveling.
Patrick steeled himself and suddenly yanked Marianne to his side.
He raised his hand.
*Slap! Slap! Slap!*
Several crisp sounds echoed as he slapped Marianne hard across the face.
The sounds made it clear that he had used immense force, landing several solid blows.
“You idiot! Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Foster! Apologize to all the young masters and ladies!” Patrick yelled, holding onto Marianne.
Then, he turned back to Brian’s group with a fawning smile, which he also directed at Serena. “And most importantly, of course, apologize to Serena!”
Marianne was stunned by the blows, her ears ringing and both sides of her face burning with intense pain.
She stared in disbelief at the man she had shared a bed with for decades.
Just moments ago, when Serena had fractured her wrist, Patrick had been so concerned for her.
But now, because of… Serena, he had hit her?
And he was telling her to apologize to that bitch Serena?!
Patrick was using the most direct and humiliating method possible, sacrificing her to show his loyalty to this group and hopefully resolve the situation.
For her, this was an immense humiliation!
Especially in front of that bitch Serena!
