Chapter 171: Shut Up, I Can Hear You
Charles was the Sullivan family's only grandson, so he was used to being spoiled by others.
People around him would do things according to his will.This was the first time that he was humiliated like this.He clenched his teeth and threatened Melody while he endured the pain of her whips.
"Melody, stop right now.Otherwise, Dad and Mom will definitely not let you go.When they hear of this, you will definitely regret it!" Charles shouted.
Melody couldn't help but chuckle at his threats.She wondered if Charles was really stupid.
He already threatened her a few minutes ago.Yet, here he was again.
Did he think that Melody would be frightened? When Melody suddenly stopped, Charles thought that his threats were effective.
After all, he was the flesh and blood of his parents and the only heir of the Sullivan family.
Charles thought that Melody wouldn't dare to touch him.
Just as Charles was about to act arrogantly again, Melody suddenly hurled the branch in her hand to the side and pulled out a thicker and longer one.
The branch was twice as thick as before.
The sight of it made Charles tremble in fear.
He tried to hold himself from screaming as he talked to Melody.
"What are you doing? Didn't you hear what I..."
But before he could even finish his sentence, Melody scratched her ears impatiently and shouted, "Shut up! I heard yout".
She then pulled out her phone from her pocket and threw it on the ground.It landed near Charles's feet.
"I'll give you a chance.Go live and broadcast this," she said as a faint smile appeared on her beautiful face.
The sarcasm is obvious, "Maybe they'll come faster if they see the broadcast," Melody joked sarcastically. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Charles looked at Melody in horror.
Her vicious smile made his heart palpitate.
He couldn't stop shivering.
"You...you! What are you trying to do?" He said as he lifted his trembling finger and pointed at the branch Melody was holding.
Melody sneered at him with a devilish and cynical smile on her face.It seemed as though the whip in her palm was softly swayed in an arc.
Her whip seemed to be expanding in size as she held it.
Every movement was as smooth and beautiful as a ballet.
"My hand can whip 60 times in a minute.That would be 360 whips in an hour.How many lashes do you think will it take before your parents come? Or how many lashes can your body bear?" Melody spoke in a soft and low voice, but Charles clearly heard every word she uttered.
Melody's eyes were fixed on him, and he recognized the intense and uncompromising expression in her gaze.He was confident that Melody would do as she said.
If that happened, Charles would probably be beaten to death even before his parents arrived.
"Ah!" Charles suddenly screamed as the branch touched his skin.
After changing the whip, the pain became much more excruciating than before.
Before Charles could even think, Melody unleashed another whip and used her actions to teach him a lesson.
Charles couldn't help but scream out loud, "Ah, help me! She's going to kill me!"
"So what if I really beat you to death? Did you forget who owns Sullivan's properties right now? I have enough money to get people to work for me.Don't you know this best, Charles?" she responded to him.
This time, Melody wanted to give Charles a taste of his own medicine.She used Charles’ usual argument to let him know her strength.
Charles would always use his status to boss and bully people around him.
For him, money would easily solve any trouble or problem he made.
But now, Melody was the wealthiest person in the Sullivan family.
All of the family's assets were under her name.She even became the chairman of the company.
Even their father looked powerless beside her.
As Charles thought of this, he grew more afraid of her.
When he sensed that Melody had no intentions of compromising, he started to beg for mercy.
"I was wrong.I was wrong, okay? I apologize, Melody.I was wrong..."he pleaded.
Melody's whips became slower.
However, she didn’t stop.
The moment Melody slowed down, Charles was able to bear the pain more.
As if being guided, he gradually understood what Melody wanted.
Because of the change in Melody’s actions, he decided to plead for mercy in order to get out of the situation.
"Sis, I was wrong.I really know I was wrong.Just let me go..."
Charles paused for a moment before he continued, "Sis, you are my sister.Please let me go."
At that moment, the people around them were stunned at the revelation of Melody's identity.
Charles' friends looked at Melody in shock.
So this was the cause of their family's disasters that Charles had been talking about every day.
The other child of the Sullivan family was Melody! When Melody saw that Charles was begging sincerely, she decided to stop whipping him.
Just as Charles was about to let out a sigh of relief, Melody turned her elbow and pointed her long whip at him, pressing it against his forehead.
Charles was stunned for a moment before falling back down again.
He looked at Melody with horror in his eyes, "You..."
"What I mean is, sister, what are you doing?" he hastily altered his words when he sensed something was wrong.
Melody looked at him with satisfaction.It seemed like she wasn't foolish.
She still knew how to teach people a lesson.
For the sake of Grandpa Alistair, she wanted to put in a lot of effort to educate Charles.
"Do you think just apologizing to me is enough?" she said.
Charles was confused for a moment.
Only when his friend hinted at him with his eyes did he understand Melody's intention.
His friend glanced to the side where Andrea was standing.
‘So she wants me to apologize to Andrea?’ Charles thought to himself.
However, he was a little reluctant to do so.He glanced at Melody's face from the corner of his eyes.
Although it looked calm, her expression was actually cold and scary.
It was enough to make him feel scared at a glance.
Charles didn’t dare to object and obediently walked towards Andrea.
Seeing him suddenly approach, Andrea was frightened that she took a step backward, curled her posture, and looked at him in panic.
Charles gritted his teeth and lowered his head to apologize, "I was wrong, sorry!"
Andrea was stunned.
After Charles apologized, he returned to Melody and didn’t say anything.He waited for Melody to give her orders.
Melody ignored him.
Instead, she picked up a bottle of whiskey and placed it in front of Andrea.
"He bullied you and has already apologized to you.Let's forget about that.However, since he also forced you to drink, if you want to, take this bottle of wine and pour it into his throat.Let him feel it too."
Andrea was shocked at Melody's words.Her eyes grew wider as she stared at Melody.
At this moment, Melody looked like the most powerful person in the world.Her aura made her seem like she was shining among the crowd.
After Charles heard this, his face turned pale like a sheet of white paper.He glanced at Andrea in horror.He couldn't tell what she was planning to do.
All he knew was that if Andrea wanted to take revenge on him, Melody would make it possible.
She would definitely get someone to hold him down and pry open his throat to make it easier for Andrea.
The bottle of whiskey was almost half a liter.
If Charles forcefully drank it, he would end up in the hospital afterward.
Andrea's thoughts were in a mess.
She understood that everyone was waiting for her to decide.
Her gaze swept back and forth between the bottle of whiskey and Melody.
Finally, she made up her mind and shook her head.
When she did this, Charles finally let out a sigh of relief.
Melody also didn't insist.She looked at Charles, threw away the whip in her hand, and turned around to leave.
Seeing Melody leaving, Charles was still outraged that he wanted to get back on her.
He tried to grab her, but before he could even take a step forward, a few of his friends stopped him.
They held on to his arms and whispered.
"Charles, don’t be rash.Look up there!"
