Chapter 330
Those words were said nonchalantly as if they were merely about eating and drinking, and not about brutal torture.
“No, you devil! Let me die!” Arthur Haddock wailed desperately in pain.
Rather than enduring this kind of torture, it would be better for him to die than to live.
“When you sent out my mom into the arms of those perverts, she must’ve been so frightened. She was so weak.
She must be more frightened and more terrified than you now. Dad desperately tried but couldn’t save her!
Grandpa, let this be retribution of the pain that you’ve caused me! In fact, this pain that I’m giving you now is
merely a tiny fraction of what I’ve experienced!”
Having gotten all his frustration off his chest, he did not even take a glance at his frail grandfather lying on the bed
as he turned and left, bringing along with him the hammer - the object of pure terror.
As soon as the door was slammed shut, Arthur felt spent - like a candle in the wind - as he laid there helpless and
weak.
Pain throbbed throughout every cell in his body.
It was so painful that he could not sleep nor stay awake. He drifted in and out of consciousness, and in his confused
state, he started to hallucinate about the events that happened more than ten years ago...

Dixon had just come out of Arthur’s room when he ran into Sienna head-on.
She was wearing a crimson tight-fitting traditional dress that accentuated her exquisite figure.
In her hand, she carried a small bag, and she looked as if she had just returned from a banquet.
A faint fragrance emanated from her.
“Hello aunt.”
Hearing his voice, Sienna’s face turned pale, as she paused to gander at the slender frame of a terrifying man.
“Dixon...”
She remembered everything that had happened in the office during the day...
Her face alternated between pale white and blushing red, yet she felt consistently frightened.
She dared not look at Dixon, fearing something terrible would be done unto her again.
“Come to my study room. I have something to tell you.” Having said that, he headed up to the aforementioned
room on the second floor.
Sienna bit her lips and was left with no choice but to follow him.
Dixon Haddock was a man with unbelievable self-control. Though he had lost restraint during the day and raped
Sienna, he did not regret nor mull over it. All these years, he had always kept himself together. Especially regarding
matters related to women, he had been successfully abstinent.
As to what happened between him and Sienna during the day. Looked like he had to practice restraining himself
more!
Upon entering the study, he handed a few envelopes to Sienna. “Aunt, here are some letters. These must be dealt
with. Deal with them properly.”
“These are...” Sienna glanced at the letters suspiciously. All the letters were addressed from Lake Emerald
Orphanage.
The Lake Emerald Orphanage was a highly reputable welfare institution funded by Haddock Charity for many years.
However, still maintaining contact through letters in these modern times and age seemed oddly peculiar.
“Get rid of them.” Dixon reminded as he continued with his paperwork.
Sienna dared not utter anything as she immediately turned and left.
Upon exiting the room, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he did nothing.
She thought that he would do something cruel to her again.
Upon reaching her own room, she dropped the letters on her desk and went to take a shower.
Having experienced such terrible things during the day, she was so exhausted that when she finished her shower

Early next morning, after she was done with her morning routine, she left the house and went to work at the
Haddock Group headquarters.
She had completely forgotten about the matter related to the letters. Only when she got back from work, she
remembered. However, the letters on her desk were missing.

Ashlyn rested well for the whole day yesterday.
She got up early in the morning, feeling refreshed from having enough sleep. It was sch a comfortable feeling!
There were only two days left before the National Day Gala Night.
For the next two days, she had to maximize her time to train these performers.
On the internet, the National Day Gala Night had become a hot trending topic due to the numerous publicity by the
TV stations. Almost the whole population had been keeping track of the event.
The gala which was jointly hosted by the Lake City TV Station in conjunction with the local municipal government
was the focal point of the day.
There were fans of Ashlyn who had given their 100% trust and 100% support to her - their heroine.
Meanwhile, there were also detractors who constantly laughed, criticized, and distrusted her, all the while saying
that the Gala Night would be a disaster.
