The delicate girl squirmed around. She did not want to say anything, but the two bodyguards behind
her suddenly pulled her arms back with force.
Her face turned white from the pain. She immediately opened her mouth.
“Ms. Stanton told Riley about my relationship with Mr. Carter, so Riley came to find trouble with me. I
just couldn’t stand his constant pestering, so I wanted to settle the score with Ms. Stanton!”
Yvette ran down from upstairs witha glum face.
“You have the guts to settle accounts with Nicole, but don’t dare to confront Riley? Are you out of your
mind?”
The delicate girl was shocked and sobbed. “I was just too impulsive. I wouldn’t have done it if I thought
it through.”
Clayton stood aside and listened quietly before he spoke indifferently.
“It’s that simple?”
The delicate girl nodded timidly. Clayton averted his gaze, beckoned to Mr. Litt, and whispered a few
words. Mr. Litt’s face changed slightly. His eyes darkened when he looked at the delicate girl.
However, he was in no position to comment.
He was in trouble as well, so he had to do everything he could to salvage the Stanton family’s
impression of his hotel.
The hotel manager turned around and hurriedly ran to the back.
The delicate girl did not know what he wanted to do and pursed her lips.
“Let me go! I-I can personally apologize to Ms. Stanton!”
Kai sneered. “Stop dreaming. That’s the last time you’ll get to see her. Is someone like you even worthy
of talking to her?”
This girl was not even worthy of holding Nicole’s shoes.
In less than three minutes, Mr. Litt brought a large box with many empty bottles from the back. The
bottles clashed with each other and made a loud and crisp noise.
Another person behind Mr. Litt was carrying another box that looked quite heavy. The bottles in this box
were not empty.
Somehow, the delicate girl’s face suddenly became uglier. A deep fear filled her eyes.
“Wh-What are you guys trying to dof!”
Both Grant and Kai did not speak.
The angriest person in the room was somehow the calmest one. He looked very civilized, gentle, and
very good- tempered.
However, at this moment, she did not feel that way.
Clayton’s thin lips were tightly pursed. There was an indescribable chill when he stared at her.
The most frightening thing was that no one could see through Clayton’s anger.
At that moment, Clayton spoke.
“T’ll give you two choices. You can either smash these empty bottles on your head until they’re all
broken...” The delicate girl shuddered.
Clayton continued to speak.
“Or, you can drink every single drop of liquor from this box.”
Whichever option she chose could take her life.
She simply could not escape.
