Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Larry knelt there, his shoulders drooping, making his already gaunt body look even thinner.

He heard the door open and lifted his head, his eyes brightening slightly.

He shuffled over to Stella and said in a hoarse voice, "Ms. Hall, please punish me." Stella clenched her hands, her expression somewhat grim.

She didn't immediately help Larry up but said sternly, "Larry, stand up.

Ty Larry didn't move, his shoulders trembling slightly, his voice hoarse, "Ms. Hall, I’ve caused you so much trouble, and yet you still protect me.

I feel so ashamed.

Please punish me; I'll accept anything." Stella closed her eyes briefly and raised her voice, "I said, stand up! Are you kneeling outside my office to make a spectacle of us?" Larry's face turned paler.

"I didn't mean to..." "Then stand up!" Stella had always spoken to Larry gently, considering his age, even defending him downstairs just moments ago.
