Chapter 466
The hatred in Erica's eyes grew increasingly denser. Michael was now immersed in pain and did not notice it at all.
At this point, Shelly, who was lying on the bed, moved. Michael's heart skipped a beat. He strode to the bedside and stared at her nervously.
Shelly's eyelashes fluttered, then she opened her eyes.
"Shelly..." Michael called out carefully. Shelly stared blankly at the ceiling without any reaction.
"Shelly! Michael raised his voice slightly.
Still, Shelly did not respond.
"Shelly, Shelly! It's Mom, Shelly..."
Erica pounced on the bed and began shaking Shelly's shoulders. However, Shelly was still staring at the ceiling in a daze, with obvious blood streaks in her eyes.
Erica's eyes widened. She exerted more strength on her arms, causing Shelly’s body to shake violently.
Seeing that, Michael pulled Erica away and shouted, "Erica, you'll hurt her if you continue to do this!"
Erica's eyes were wide open and filled with fear. She burst into tears and said, "What's wrong with Shelly? Why isn't she saying anything?
Shelly..."
Michael comforted her, "Erica, Shelly will be fine. Let's avenge her and let that bastard pay the price! ’
Erica stopped crying and suddenly calmed down.
The Wheeler family was still counting on Jerico to kill Draxton. How could they take revenge on him now?
No, they couldn't!
Moreover, the Chancely family was in Southeast Aelinne. There was no way they could go there to get even with Jerico.
Thinking that she had calmed down, Michael turned to the bed and called Shelly twice, but Shelly remained motionless.
Despite the twinge in his heart, Michael raised his hand and slapped her hard.
Shelly's already red and swollen face was instantly covered with five fingerprints. Her head tilted with the slap.
Erica asked in shock,' Michael, what are you doing?" However, Michael just ignored her.
At this moment, Shelly finally blinked and came to her senses.
Erica was stunned.
Michael said coldly, "Shelly, you don't have the right to be weak. You have only yourself to blame for what you suffered!
"Why didn't you call me? Didn't I tell you to call me?"
Michael had never been so ruthless to Shelly. However, Shelly could tell his voice was trembling violently when he was speaking to her coldly.
Tears welled up and she started crying loudly.
Michael's eyes turned red as well, tears streaming down his face.
He bent down to pick Shelly up, hugged her tightly, and kept comforting her, 'Cry it out. It's okay. Daddy is here!'
"Boohoo... Dad..."
Shelly hugged Michael tightly, crying her heart out.
Erica who was standing by their side looked at them in a daze.
Shelly kept crying until she could no longer make a sound and blacked out again.
This time, she fainted from exhaustion after letting her grievance out.
Michael put her down gently and covered her with the blanket. After that, he heaved a sigh of relief.
"It's good she's crying like this," he whispered.
"Who the fuck are you?" It sounded very noisy on the other end of the line. Except for the man's impatient voice, Erica also heard men and women flirting.
She gritted her teeth and said, "My surname is Wheeler. We cooperated before."
"Oh, I know. It's Mrs. Flouder, right? Mrs. Flouder, do you have a business for me again?"
"Yes." A ferocious look appeared in Erica's eyes. "It's a big business."
The loud noise going through suddenly quieted down. A moment later, the man's voice sounded again, "Mrs. Flouder, you know who I am. I'll get everything for you in Maestria... as long as you can pay. Haha!"
"One million!" Erica offered.
The man fell silent again before sneering. "One million is not a small business for me, but it's not a big one either."
"It's just the deposit. After it's done, I'll give you another three million," Erica added.
After a short silence, the man asked, his frivolous voice becoming serious, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Erica gritted her teeth and said, "I want you to destroy someone..."
Yvette had been working hard to memorize the acupoints diagrams and the incantation for acupuncture in the past two days.
Though she was a straight-A student, it took her a lot of effort to completely understand what Isabella taught her.
Yvette went out after staying at home for two days.
She had not returned when it was getting dark outside.
At 9:30 p.m., Megan asked. Hector, where's your sister? Why isn't she back yet?"
Hector was playing games. His heart skipped a bit when he realized that his sister had not come back yet at this late hour.
He thought guiltily, "Could it be that Yvette is with her mysterious boyfriend and will spend the night outside?
' Hey, I'm asking you. Why are you in a daze?" Megan was a little anxious. She stepped forward and gave Hector's forehead a push.
