Chapter 76
When the staff saw Winona, who had just paid the bill, suddenly bend down and lean against the wall with a pained expression, they asked with concern. “Miss, are you all right
Winona took a deep breath and massaged her slightly protrading belly. The rightness disappeared, as if it were an illusion. She stood up and waved at the staff behind her, replying, “Tm fine. She then resumed her normal state and headed toward the private ward.
When she arrived at the wards door, she could hear Mildred sobbing. His old wound havn’t healed yet, but he got new injuries. What’s been going
Winona approached Mildred and softly stroked her back, comforting, “Mom, don’t cry. We still have no clue about what happened” She then turned to face Huxley and asked, “Tuxley, what’s going on?
“Who put you in this state!” Logan inquired furiously.
Huxley was half–lying on the hospital bed, wearing hospital clothes. Even though his head was wrapped with bandages, blood was still oozing our staining the bandages red. He had some bruises on his delicate face and his hand was still in a cast, giving the impression that he had been in a war and was badly insured
“Xavier,” Huxley’s eyes were filled with hatred as he added, “And Juliet.” They were the ones who severely harmed him, leaving him unable to move and lying on the hospital bed.
“They’re Gordon’s children.” Mildred stopped crying and wiped the tears of her face, saying. “How dare they hit you
“Them again?” Winna walked to the hospital bed and examined Huxley’s injuries.
“Xavier hit me with a boule just because he had trained in the military base and had Juliet backed him up Huxley let out another pained groan.
Mildred felt pain just imagining what Huxley described. She comforted him and looked at Logan, saying, “Logan, we can’t let them go. I can’t believe they’d dare to walk all over us.”
Logan was sullen. “That old geezer Gordon dared to lay a hand on Huxley. I must keep his son and daughter in prison for the rest of their lives” He then beckoned the security personnel who had been standing aside, ordering. “Come here. Contact Mr. Fletcher and tell him that no one can bail out those who hurt Huxley”
Knowing that they were the Salvatore family from Nosa, the security personnel couldn’t afford to offend them and swiftly exited the ward to contact his superior
Observing that the security personnel had gone and there was only her family in the ward, Winona asked bluntly. “Dad, what are you going to do
“I won’t let Gordon’s family go easily, Logan replied angrily.
“You’re right. We can’t allow outsiders to think our family’s easy to bully. And Mikayla and Carlos–how could I have been injured so many times if they hadn’t started it Huxley responded furiously
“Mikayla and her fiance are too audacious. How dare they hurt Huxley Mildred became enraged at the mention of Mikayla’s name. Mikayla not only restrained Hurley at work, but she also dared to steal a man from Winona, Now, she conspired with Carlos to harm Huxley. She had gone overboard
“You’re right. We should give them a hard time.” Huxley couldn’t help but shake his head as he said that. As a result, he agitated his wound and gasped in pain.
“Let’s stop now. You should talk less and rest more. Mildred gave Huxley a worried glance before adding. “Tll ask the housekeeper to make some pumpkin stew for you tomorrow.”
Huxley was unable to use his agile right hand properly, and now, his head was injured. He kept wanting to touch it with his right hand, but that hurt it again, causing him immense discomfort
Noticing Huxley’s painful expression, Mildred rushed to help him. “Are you okay, Huxley?”
Clancing at the two, Winona approached Logan and inquired, Dad, how is Mikayla’s family reacting toward Huxley being injured?”
Logan walked to a chair and sat down. He snorted, saying. “They have two options. One is for Jorge to step down as chairman, or Mikayla and Carlos to apologize in person. I want Carlos‘ hands to be like Hurley’s.”
Winona sat next to Logan and said angrily, “Actually, Uncle Jorge has been in that position for a long time. Huxley’s in his early twenties, but he has been overwhelmed by Uncle Jorge and Mikayla. Plus, he got beaten up by Carlos and the Klein family?”

“What do you can. Winona Logan asked.
“The put it bluntly, they dare to bully us because we have no power or influence and simply sit there waiting for the company’s dividend each year. Dal, instead of sending Juben and Xavier to jail, how about this. Winona leaned forward and whispered into Logan’s car.
Logan’s face gradually softened, revealing a rare smile. “You’re indeed my daughter”
Winona grinned at him, a glint of trickery in her eyes. She mused, Just you wait, Mikayla‘
Meanwhile, only Carlos, Kashton and Elvis stayed inside an SVIP exclusive private room on the top floor of Septem Nightclub free of loud music and gorgeous companions. The room looked more like a conference room rather than a place to relax.
“Didn’t your superior approve your vacation?” Kashton asked, his legs crossed and his shoulder resting on the couch leisurely.
Carlos rested on the chair with his legs crossed, appearing as graceful as a leopard. He looked up slightly and replied. “This is an order directly issued by that side”
“Why did they suddenly give an order!” Kashton leaned forward, and his expression became serious
“You have to go with me this time.” Carlos said, picking up his whiskey glass and swirling the amber liquor. His eyes grew deeper as he gazed at the transparent glaw.
