The bodyguards surrounded her in all directions.
Violet entered the living room at one point and was frightened by this display. She quickly fled back to
Madam Carter’s room.
Every second that passed was full of torment.
Sylvia was pressed against the cold hard tiles of the floor, and her limbs had grown stiff and cold over
time.
She was pinned on the ground on her side and stared vacantly at the threshold leading into the living
room.
After a long time, a tall and stout figure appeared in sight.
He was still wearing the black suit he wore when he carried Tara away the same morning and he wore
a pair of trousers that complemented his long and slender legs. Handsome as always, he fixed a
menacing look on her.
He entered the living room.
The look in Sylvia's eyes wavered. She wanted to call his name but found her voice caught in her

Odell sat down on the sofa and looked at her accusingly. "Is there anything you want to say to me?"
Sylvia pursed her lips.
She wanted to explain herself, but realized that she had done that more than enough times by now.
It was pointless.
Odell grunted. “Have you given up on justifying your actions?”
Sylvia smirked wryly. "I've said everything I need to say. There's nothing left for me to say."
“I see.” He narrowed his eyes and regarded her with a fierce and contemptuous glare.
After a brief moment, he suddenly turned to the bodyguard. “Grab a bat and break her leg."
They seemed to question their ears and were visibly startled by this command. One of them asked
again to be sure, “Master Carter?”
Odell glared at them severely.
One of the bodyguards quickly bolted out of the living room.
Sylvia broke out in a cold sweat. She was trembling with fear by this point.
She shifted her body away from Odell and cast a desperate look at him. "Odell, have you lost your
mind?”
What had she done to deserve such treatment? All she did was scale a wall!
Odell calmly took a sip from the teacup before swiping a glance at her. "This is your punishment for
trying to escape and forcing Tara to have to hurt herself to prove her innocence.”
Sylvia immediately retorted, “She did it to herself. What’s that got to do with me?! ”
Odell took another sip of tea.
Meanwhile, the bodyguard who left the room previously returned with an iron bat and said in a hushed
voice, “Master Carter, this was the only thing lean find.”
"Hmm." Odell glanced at Sylvia's folded legs, pondered for a moment, and decided. “Start with her left
calf.”
The bodyguard answered dutifully, "Yes, sir.”
Then, he walked up to Sylvia and said, "Madam, please stretch your legs out.”
Sylvia clenched her legs tightly together.
She did not want her legs broken!
“Tear her legs out if you have to, ” Odell frowned and ordered impatiently.
Sylvia cried out desperately, "Odell, stop this. I’m begging you. I promise I’ll never try to leave again! ”
She looked at him with a pleading look, filled with fear and agitation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOdell frowned at such a sight.
He seemed to hesitate momentarily, but in the end still insisted to the bodyguard, “Go on."
The two bodyguards next to him promptly stepped forward and pried Sylvia’s legs out from underneath
her.
"Madam, I'm very sorry,” the bodyguard with the iron bat whispered to Sylvia, then he slowly raised the
iron bat in the air and swung it down on her left calf.
There was nowhere for Sylvia to run to.
In an instant, the iron bat smashed into her leg, producing a grating crack the moment it made impact.
Her bones snapped with a brutal crack.
A wave of agonizing pain spread all over the body.
"Ah!!! ” she cried out in pain.
Having completed the gruesome task, the bodyguards recoiled and immediately released her while
shuffling away.
Sylvia grabbed her leg and rolled on the floor, writhing in pain.
Meanwhile, Odell, who remained on the couch the entire time, looked at her tossing and turning like a
madwoman on the ground. He knitted his brows into a tight frown.
After a moment of silence, he got up and went to her side.
She was still twitching weakly on the ground when he squatted and forcefully turned her head to face
him.
Her reddened eyes and streaks of tears flowing down her cheeks were put on full display before him.
