Chapter 654
It was almost 10 o’clock when Hattie arrived at Malloy’s private apartment. They had an extra scene tonight, which ended late In addition, she was afraid of being followed, so she took a detour and arrived later than expected.
As soon as her car stopped outside the apartment, she heard cars speeding towards them, about five cars with 20 serious–looking people getting out and heading straight into the apartment.
Hattie’s eyes darted around quickly as she retrieved her phone, intending to call Malloy. However, she hesitated with her finger hovering over the screen Eventually, she decided against making the call and immediately blocked Malloy’s number
Inside the apartment,
Malloy grew increasingly impatient waiting for Hattie’s arrival when suddenly Brooks and his men barged in instead

Curling up on the floor, seeing red and in great pain, Malloy could barely speak, “1–I don’t know”
“I’ll enlighten you, Brooks said, glaring at him with deadly intent. “One of them is Mr Lamont’s nephew, and the other is Mr. Lamont’s girlfriend”
Fear widened Malloy’s eyes, and he slowly retreated.
Brooks squatted down in front of him and inquired, “Does Hattie have any involvement in this?”
Terrified, Malloy shook his head, stammering, “N–no!”
Think carefully before you speak Brooks said emotionlessly, holding a syringe in his hand.
Scared to the point of wetting his pants, Malloy cried and stammered, “It was my idea I know I was wrong I won’t do it again, I swear!”
“No more chances for you! With an emotionless tone, Brooks injected the clear liquid into Malloy’s spine
In a matter of moments, Malloy let out a pig–like shriek, rolling around and smashing his body against the wall His face contorted in agony
As Brooks left the room, he called Jonathan, “Mr Lamont, Malloy confessed He said it was his idea
On his way to the Royal Mansion, Jonathan’s voice was cold, Teach him a lesson, then call the police. Tell the Hearn family not to bother saving him, cause I won’t let the whole Hearn family off
“Yes, sir!” Brooks replied
Hattie parked her car in a secluded area, carefully observing the happenings around Malloy’s apartment. After approximately two hours, the police arrived and took Malloy into custody.
She witnessed his bruised and bloodied face as he lay curled up on the stretcher, his screams filled with agony

Terrified and drenched in a cold sweat, Hattie clutched the steering wheel, trembling uncontrollably Only once the police and everyone else had departed did she gather herself, start her car, and drive away.
When Jonathan returned to the Royal Mansion, Estelle had just finished taking a shower. Wearing a loose, white silk pajamas, she was standing in the living room drinking water when he entered. She exclaimed, “You’re back so soon?”
Jonathan held her close, his long fingers running through her soft, damp hair, pressing her against his chest but still feeling uneasy.
Estelle wrapped her arms around him, soothingly saying, ‘Don’t worry, I still have self–protection skills.”
“How can I not worry? Jonathan kissed the top of her head, his voice deep and somber, I was scared to death”
Estelle leaned her head against his shoulder, feeling comforted
Jonathan inspected the bracelet marks on her wrists, her fair and delicate skin made the bruises particularly prominent.
