Sweet Wife in Hidden Marriage novel Chapter 50

Joanna's beautiful face suddenly turned pale. She drugged Lilian with a huge dose last night. This cup of wine with a larger dose scared all her anger away.

She begged in fear, "Mr. Hawkins... It's all my fault. I don't know she's your woman. Please have some mercy. I won't do anything to her ever again."

"I said you shouldn't have touched my woman, and now you should pay for what you've done. An eye for an eye. Don't worry, I didn't invite that many men. I have moral consciousness, so I've got just one man for you."

Joanna looked at that man. He was wearing nothing but shorts and a mask. He had muscles as burly as a boxer.

All the expressions on her face disappeared. A vulgar and violent man like that could snap her waist any time, let alone that he would probably press himself on her.

"Archibald! You can't do this to me! Sebastion will get to you for me! You'll pay the price!" She yelled as her eyes turned red out of anger. Then she shook her eyes desperately to resist the drink.

Archibald sat back on the sofa again. He had no expression on his face. He sneered, "I dare you to tell him what had happened today and yesterday." He then gave a hint to the bodyguard with the cup in his hand.

The bodyguard nodded and stepped forward. Then he grabbed Joanna's chin and forced her to open her mouth. Joanna's hands and feet were tied, and had no power to resist.

A full cup of wine was poured into her throat. Some of it dropped off from her mouth because she was resisting.

"No... No!" Tear of fear dropped off her cheeks. As the bodyguard was sure she had drunk all of it, he let go of her. She fell down on the bed and couldn't stop coughing because she was choked.

She needed to catch a breath, but Archibald was whispering to her ear gently and ruthlessly, "Joanna, have you ever thought that you could've already been Mrs. Palmer if you have had his child?"

Joanna covered her chest with one hand and opened her mouth to gasp. She wanted to spit out all the wine. She was shocked when she heard what Archibald said. She raised her head, only to see that Archibald is walking out.

She was still in shock. Archibald stopped by the man with the mask. He said to her without looking back, "One more thing... he's one of the ten most welcomed gigolos here." He said as if he had done her a favor by hiring the most expensive man.

Joanna now thought she would feel better if this was just a random man hire on the street. A gigolo was such a huge humiliation. She would rather die than be raped by a gigolo who had slept with countless women.

Archibald had left, and so had those bodyguards. They walked out and closed the door, leaving drugged Joanna and the burly gigolo behind.

"No! Don't come over, stay away from me!"

The moment the door was closed, Archibald heard a horrifying scream coming out of the room behind. There was no fluctuation of emotions in his eyes. His pursed thin lips looked as cold as always. He wasn't a ruthless man, but he would never spare anyone who dared to touch his woman.

Now that Joanna had been cruel enough to drug Lilian and hire four street ruffians to ruin Lilian's reputation, he would let Joanna feel how would that be like on her own.

He had been as kind as he could, for at least this gigolo would be way better than some street ruffians.

"Sir, your brother is still in the hospital," Kieran said to Archibald in a low voice from behind.

Archibald was not like the gentle and polite man he appeared to be. He looked quite gloomy right now, with no expressions on his face. His clear eyes were squitting.

"Then we should go see him," he said lightly.
