Jacqueline was initially in the throes of such great agony that sweat was beading on her forehead, but she froze
entirely upon hearing Shane's remark.
He... He knows that I killed his parents? I always thought that he wanted to capture me because he wanted to
avenge Natalie and their two brats. I didn't expect him to actually know the truth of that incident!
Shane didn't show her any mercy. Instead, he kicked her again.
He didn't hit women, but in his eyes, Jacqueline was no woman. In fact, she wasn't even human but a demon and a
monster.
“My parents' vengeance is only part of this. I'll also settle the score for the debt you owe Natalie and the children.
As such, Jacqueline, brace yourself for hell! Break her legs right this instance!” he ordered sternly.
The bodyguards nodded in acknowledgment. “Understood, Mr. Shane!”
“Wait!”
Just then, a voice rang out from above their heads.
Everyone promptly looked up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt the sight of Natalie on the balcony on the third floor of the villa, Shane frowned. “What's wrong?”
“Shane, I don't care about Jacqueline, but I think there's no need to break the housekeeper's legs. Although she's on
Sean's side, she had also been protecting me during the past few days. If it weren't for her, I would've been picked
on by Jacqueline long ago. Thus, just locking her up is sufficient. Don't break her legs,” Natalie implored with her
gaze trained on Marina.
Marina initially had her head lowered and her eyes closed as though awaiting her fate.
The moment she heard Natalie's words, however, she inexorably opened her eyes and cut her gaze at the latter in
astonishment, seemingly surprised that she would actually speak up for her.
Shane stared at Marina for a long while. In the end, he caved in to Natalie's request. “All right. Tie her up and
electrify the door of the room in which she's kept under lock and key.”
While he wasn't going to break her legs, with the door electrified, she wouldn't be able to make a run for it even if
she managed to break her bonds.
After all, she would pass out from the electric shock or get fried since electricity would be coursing through the
door.
The bodyguards then begun executing their orders.
They first tied Jacqueline and Marina up before taping their mouths.
After binding them, two bodyguards escorted Marina away while leaving Jacqueline there.
One of the bodyguards took out a rod and swung it at Jacqueline's leg ruthlessly while she shook her head in horror.
He didn't aim for her leg bones but her kneecap.
Snap!
The sound of bones shattering instantly filled the air, drifting into the ears of everyone present.
Jacqueline's eyes went as wide as saucers. Her entire face went flush and contorted in pain. Sweat dotted her
forehead, and the veins on her neck popped up. Her whole appearance looked horrifying.
At long last, she could no longer withstand the acute pain. Her eyes rolled back into her head, and she passed out.
Upstairs, Natalie screwed her eyes shut in fright and returned to her room without bothering to watch anymore.
She didn't even dare to hurt someone with a knife, let alone witness such a gory scene.
After beholding it once, she was so horror-stricken that her heart almost pounded out of her chest. For that reason,
she hadn't the guts to watch it for a second time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTherefore, she walked away and merely waited for the results.
While it was rather cruel to break someone's legs, she didn't sympathize with Jacqueline, for it was a punishment
the latter deserved.
At the thought of her parents-in-law, Connor, and Sharon, she felt that Jacqueline brought it upon herself.
Outside, the brutality continued.
The bodyguard broke Jacqueline's left leg earlier, so he then struck at her right leg.
Whoosh!
The rod slammed down once more after cutting through the air. Once again, the sound of bones shattering pierced
the air.
Although Jacqueline had already passed out, she could still sense pain, and her body twitched violently.
The bodyguard crouched and touched her kneecap with a hand. It wasn't until after he had ascertained that
everything was in order that he put the rod away and stood up, reporting to Shane, “It's done, Mr. Shane. She has
comminuted facture for both her kneecaps. Even with timely treatment, they can't possibly be reconnected and
healed fully.”
Shane inclined his head a fraction in acknowledgment. “Good job. Take her to the cruise ship and have the doctor
keep an eye on her at all times. If she develops a fever, render treatment immediately. Don't let her die.”
“Understood!” The bodyguard nodded before transporting her to the cruise ship with the remaining bodyguards.
After everyone had left, Shane started heading toward the villa.
