"It has to be that nasty brat, Zoe, behind this! She has to be brainwashing Bethany, even threatening my daughter to do something like this! "Even if that wasn't the case, it was ultimately the Hoffmans who went and published news of Carrie's condition to the world! Instead of going to our enemies to settle the score, you would turn against your family? Justin, whose side are you on?!" Bethany immediately began to weep again. Just like her late mother, she knew best how to earn sympathy.
"Either way, we're sending her overseas. It's settled! I don't want any more trouble in my family!" Gregory declared stoutly. He was not going to allow any room for objections.

Still, he was not the type to act rashly in the heat of the moment. He realized that if he kept up the stalemate, it was only going to instigate Gregory further and that he was going to be more protective of Bethany.
"Fine, et about having to apologize to Carrie." With that, Justin proceeded to stride toward Bethany. In an unexpected gesture, he put a hand out to help her up.
Bethany was taken aback by the gesture. She stared at him in confusion and stumbled to her feet.
She had just managed to plant her feet when she heard a thunderous ring in her ears.
Smack! Without a word, Justin had flexed every muscle in his arm and swung a ferocious slap across Bethany's face, which was already swollen as is.

Blood trickled from the corners of her mouth, and all she could hear was incessant ringing like a thousand flies were hovering around her ears. Justin was a man of military background. Furthermore, his palms were huge.
et about a woman; even a grown man would hardly be able to withstand a slap from him. His strength was not to be underestimated.
The maids watching outside were terrified and fell speechless.
Justin knew what he was doing. He even made a point to cup Bethany's face before slapping her.
"That one is for Carrie. You would sink low enough to hurt your sister. There is no shred of humanity in you." He had hardly finished his sentence when he delivered yet another slap. This time, the impact threw Bethany to the ground, and she could hardly get up anymore.
After calmly issuing the final warning, Justin proceeded to push Nigel's wheelchair and departed with Matt trailing in the back. Gregory was left rooted to the spot in a state of shock.
"Dad... Dad..." Bethany put a hand over her ears, which had turned red, and cried out hysterically. "I'm deaf... Justin madedeaf! I can't hear anything!" In an instant, Gregory's pupils tightened, and his heart dropped.
