Danielle’s anger simmered beneath the surface. She thought, ‘So this is how it is going to go today, huh? All the
blshifts onto me?’
"You swear?" Danielle's voice was icy, her eyes locking onto Skylar’s with a cold fury that could freeze the room.
"Miss Danielle Darling, | know you're jealous of Miss Audrey’s beauty and talent," Skylar said, a sharp edge in her
tone, "but you can’t just ignore the truth, can you?" She didn’t flinch. She had just taken a few hard slaps from
Danielle, and the sting of them was still fresh.
David's jaw tightened, his eyes darkening as he turned to Nathan. "You know what to do, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Charrington," Nathan responded smoothly.
The bodyguards, positioned silently by the door, shifted as if on cue. The air in the room grew thick, and heavy
with the anticipation of violence. Anyone unfamiliar with David Charrington might have thought the Darling
family was about to be torn apart. Nathan's voice cut through the tension like a knife.
"Teach her a lesson."
Two towering bodyguards stepped toward Skylar, their hands gripping her with terrifying force.
Smack! Smack! Smack!
The slaps rang out, each one sharper and more punishing than the last.

The first slap split Skylar’s lip, blood trickling down her chin as she staggered back. She felt two teeth loosen in
her mouth.
But the beating didn’t stop there. Another slap. Then another. They hit her more than ten times, each blow
landing with brutal force, like the bodyguards were savoring the pain they were inflicting.
The room fell into a stunned silence. The weight of David kicking Audrey across the room still hung in the air, but
now, Skylar was taking the brunt of the punishment. Skylar, who had always been by Audrey’s side. It was like
they were hitting Audrey, too.
The bodyguards stood tall and silent, their presence overwhelming, as if the slightest wrong word would send
them charging again.
Howard, Vivian, and Joseph were frozen, caught off guard by the sudden escalation.
"David, what the hell do you think you're doing?
This is the Darling family!" Howard's voice cracked with anger as he tried to regain control of the situation. "You
can’t just go around hitting people!"
David turned to face him, his eyes hard as ice. "So, you know she spoke out of turn?" he asked, his voice a low
growl.
