Chapter4 The next second a tall male employee grabbed my hair and yanked my head back. Evelyn's eyes were rimmed in red; she looked like a woman poised to tear me apart. She lunged, slapping me again and again. "Bitch! How dare you lay hands on me!" she hissed. "You look starving. Strip her and feed her some swill. Get it on camera-this'll be hilarious!" She tossed an ugly look to an accomplice, and he returned with a bucket of rancid, foul smelling slop. They stripped off my outer clothes, forced me down like an animal, and held me so I couldn't move.' The summer heat felt like a blade; everything decent inside me was being chewed away. Evelyn tapped the livestream button on her phone. She grabbed my hair, shoved my face into the bucket, and laughed like a maniac. "Weren't you lecturing me about manners? Now look-you're eating swill even dogs wouldn't touch, and you love it!" She leaned close, her words pure venom. "Could it be... you're lower than animals?" I thrashed and gagged; bile rose hot in my throat. My mother in law crawled toward me to help, but several employees pinned her down. "Old hag, don't worry. You're next," one of them hissed.

"What's there to fear? It's livestreamed. They started this." "Even if something happens, Alpha Victor will crush these ants. One word from him and it's over. I watched my mother in law's life force drain away. If this kept up, she would die. Desperation gave me strength. I tore at the hands holding me and flung myself forward, pushing them aside. I stumbled to my knees beside her, pressed my face to hers, and whispered through my tears, on. Look at me-stay with me." "Mom... hold Rage burned in my eyes as I glared at everyone in the room.

I am the rightful owner of this hotel." Chapter4 40.00% Evelyn slipped into madness, shrieking, "Bitch, you threaten me? Make her shut up!" She kicked me and rained blows down as if to kill. I clutched my belly as searing pain hit and coughed up a mouthful of blood, but I didn't look away. She wrapped her fingers around my throat and shoved me into a corner, prying my mouth open. Workers came in from the kitchen carrying a pot of scalding oil, ready to pour it into my mouth. At the last instant the crowd parted as a bodyguard cut a path through, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Clear the way! Alpha Victor is here!" Chapter 4 40.00%
