Sean and Sarah’s expressions immediately shifted the moment they spotted Dana, and they instinctively took a step back.

No one in Bayside City dared to talk business with Dana. She was too much of an abnormality—in fact, she was practically an oddity among Bayside City’s socialites.

Dana’s grubby hands had barely reached out before she drew them back with lightning speed as soon as she spotted Stanley.

Last time, Stanley had broken her nose because she flirted with Sean; half a year ago, she got her leg broken by him because she had groped Sean’s butt. A year ago, she took the advantage of working together and sent Sean a lewd picture to hit on him, but Stanley had hopped onto a plane and flew overnight to break her arm when he caught wind of this. After that, he got onto another overnight flight and continued attending to his business deals. Two years prior, she had wolf-whistled at Sean at a dinner party, causing Stanley to trap her in the washroom before smashing her face into the cover of the toilet bowl. This incident had caused shock to ripple through Bayside City.

The trio had been in the same class in kindergarten. Back then, Stanley and Sean were playing house; Stanley was the father, Sean was the mother, and they gave Dana the role of their daughter. Dana refused and insisted on being the mistress, culminating in an intense beating from Stanley.

During their dance lessons in kindergarten, everyone needed a partner. Naturally, Stanley’s dance partner was Sean, but Dana wanted Sean to be her partner instead. Stanley ended up cornering her in the kindergarten’s mini garden to beat her up.

Talking with Sean? A beating. Giving Sean some flowers or snacks? Another beating. Kissing Sean secretly? Yet another beating.

In the end, Dana ended up studying abroad. It wasn’t until she returned a few years ago to take over her duties at the Winstons that she saw Sean. Yet, she still couldn’t control her grubby hands.

Similarly, Stanley couldn’t stop his own grubby hands when he saw her. One offending hand landed right by Dana’s neck as he grabbed her by the collar and reflexively lifted her up.

Dana’s toes were a few inches above the ground as she stared fearfully into the terrifying eyes of Stanley.

 

“I’ve never hit a woman, Dana. Congratulations on being the first woman I want to beat up!”

Dana was fearful to no end. “My bad, Stan! It’s my bad! I won’t dare to do this ever again!”

 

Stanley flung Dana hard to the ground and stepped over her body. “I’m here to discuss business today, so I won’t hit you. You’d better watch yourself next time!”
