Slap her blind

A cold smile appeared on Austin's face. "What importance do you think you have in this house for you to dare to report your Young Madame? You want me to punish her for you, don't you?" His smile became deadlier and more frightening.

Nina's body shook, and she began to shiver. "I...I..." Her voice became unsteady, and her face paled instantly. "Young Master...am...am...I..." She didn't know how to escape the problem any longer.

Austin's smile turned murderous, and he was about to speak when calm footsteps began to sound as they descended the stairs, drawing everyone's attention.

Austin glanced back and saw the expressionless Jean coming down. Immediately, he stood up and walked toward her.

"Darling," he called, his smile warm and heart-melting, and he moved forward to hug her, only to suddenly pause in his tracks as his brows knitted tightly. "Why are you injured?" He questioned instantly, his voice colder than before. He rushed toward Jean and examined her face, which bore the visible marks of four handprints.

Jean looked at Austin and pulled his hand away before handing him a letter.

Austin regarded Jean before unfolding the letter and reading it.

Inside the letter was written: "I cut her hair and splashed her chest open; I also slapped that little mistress Stella. Do you want to avenge them?"

After reading it, Austin gritted his teeth, his aura turning cold and deadly.

Jean placed one of her hands on her waist, seemingly prepared to receive a punch or something from Austin. But against her expectations, he suddenly lifted her up horizontally.

Jean's gaze remained fixed on him, as if searching for something in his eyes.

Austin carried her to a chair and sat her down. "Darling, tell me, who slapped you, her or Stella?" he asked.

Nina's expression froze as she slowly raised her head to look at Jean. Upon seeing the four fingerprints on her face, her mouth fell open, and she immediately screamed.

"Young Master! Young Master! She's faking it! No one touched her; she was the one who bullied us! Please don't believe her!" Nina cried out in panic.

Austin turned to look at Nina and suddenly slapped her hard out of anger. The slap was so forceful that she fell to the left and vomited blood, with about four teeth visible in the blood.

Wendy was shocked and shivered even more, not daring to raise her head.

Jean, after a long period of years of not showing any expectations, finally raised her brows, indicating her surprise. However, it didn't last long before she returned to her expressionless state.

"Young Master... Young Master!" Nina cried, immediately kneeling despite the pain she was in, trembling as sweat covered her whole body.

"Sunny!" Austin called angrily.

"Boss!" Sunny rushed in from outside at top speed.

"I don't want to see this again!" Austin commanded.

Sunny's mouth hung slightly open as his gaze fell on Jean, who was seated in the chair, looking coldly at Nina.

"What's this? This doll...no... female robot... no... that's not right. Why is she so cold now?" he thought to himself.

Jean suddenly held Austin's hand and stood up.

"Darling," Austin called.

Jean looked at him before walking toward the nearly terrified Wendy, helping her up.

"Young... young... madam... madam," Wendy stammered.

Jean patted her head, calming her down, then turned to Austin, taking his palm and writing something with her finger. What she wrote was:

"Since you want to dismiss her, allow Wendy to vent her anger first."

After writing the statement, she looked up at him.

Austin remained silent for a long time. "You are..."

Jean stared back at him; though there was no expression on her face, but just that one glance was enough to make Austin hesitate to question how she felt.

"Wendy!" Austin called.

"Young... Young Master!" Wendy immediately knelt down, her head lowered as if she wished to melt into the ground.

"You have the chance to avenge yourself," he spoke emotionlessly.

Wendy was stunned, stopping her shivering for a long moment. "Me...me?" she stammered, not daring to dream this moment could be real.

"That's your Young Madame's request," Austin added monotonously.

Wendy's mouth hung open as she looked at Jean, who remained expressionless. "Young Madame wants me to avenge myself? She's so kind!" she thought inwardly, tears welling in her eyes.

"You only have one minute. Within this minute, your task is to ensure she's blind by slapping her. If the minute passes and she is not blind...," Austin's cold gaze fixed on Wendy.

Wendy's blood froze. "Young Madame, save me! You didn't help me; instead, you put me in the worst situation. How can I slap her blind within a minute?" she screamed inwardly.

"Your time starts now," Austin declared.

"Ah!" Wendy quickly got up and positioned herself in front of Nina.

"Young Master, please show mercy! I was manipulated by Miss Stella—please show mercy! Young Madame, please help!" Nina pleaded, but she couldn't complete her appeal when a resounding slap landed across her face.

Her vision became blurry immediately, but she dared not dodge for fear that Austin might order someone to break her hand. Her sight barely cleared when another slap landed on her cheek, causing her to lose her balance and fall.

Wendy, terrified of the worst outcome, immediately grabbed Nina and slapped her again. The process continued until the allotted minute was up.

Wendy promptly returned to her knees, silently praying that Nina was now blind.

Austin stood up and inspected Nina, noticing that she could barely open her eyes. He nodded. "Take her down," he commanded coldly.

Sunny acknowledged the order and seized Nina by the neck, his actions swift and ruthless as he dragged her away, while Nina screamed for mercy.

"You all listen carefully, Nina's punishment is very light. Anyone who dares to disrespect your Young Madame will meet with a far worse fate!" Austin proclaimed coldly.

"Yes, Young Master!" everyone echoed in unison.
