Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 240 A Brutal Lesson

Oscar replied. “When you harmed my wife, did it even cross your mind that I am your brother?”

Stephanie was in so much pain that her whole body was shaking. After a few deep breaths, she spoke. “Oscar, all that I have done was for your own good and for our family. Amelia is not good enough for you. Why can’t you see the truth?”

With a sarcastic laugh, Oscar gave her a tight slap across her face which became swollen immediately.

Blood spurted from Stephanie’s lips and she looked a disgraceful sight.

This time Oscar’s punishment for her was worse than the last time. His punishment was not hitting her face. On the surface, her injuries did not look serious but she was the only one who knew that her whole body was aching. The dense pain was as if tens of thousands of ants had eaten through it.

“She is my woman. Who are you to evaluate her?” Oscar spoke coldly.

“Stephanie, be smart. Go and play the part of an uptown girl. If you know your place, I promise you will lead a good life. If I find you bullying Amelia again, you won’t even have the chance to be a beggar! Oscar glared at her with an icy gaze totally devoid of emotion.

Stephanie shuddered instinctively.

“Guys, brand the word ‘sl*t’ on her body so that she will always remember how annoying her nosy behavior is,” Oscar ordered.

Stephanie’s face turned pale with fear. Branding was such a cruel form of punishment that was used only during medieval times. Never in her worst nightmares would she imagine Oscar using that on her.

Stephanie struggled violently and pleaded desperately. “Oscar, I was wrong! I was really wrong! Please don’t do this to me. I promise I won’t do this in the future. Please! I am your sister, you can’t be so cruel to me.”

Oscar squatted down and gripped her chin, saying coldly. “Are you scared now? When you asked someone to hit Amelia with the car and then took a photo of her with some other man, did you even consider that she would feel scared? As her husband, how am I supposed to feel?”

Stephanie managed to free her hands and grabbed him tightly. Crying, she said, “Oscar, I really know how wrong I am. I’ll never do it again. I’ll stay away from Amelia and never go near her again.”

Oscar got up to his feet and ordered. “Brand her!”

Stephanie’s face turned a deathly grey.

One of the bodyguards went out and came back carrying something that looked like a stoker which was red hot and smoking.

Stephanie crawled backward in shock, waving both hands and yelling in shock, “Don’t come near me! Go away! I don’t want it.”

One bodyguard stepped forward and held her down despite her struggling. Another bodyguard stepped forward. Then the bodyguard holding Stephanie glanced at Oscar who nodded. The bodyguard understood and immediately ripped Stephanie’s blouse.
