My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Chapter 974: Stanford’s Punishment

Stanford has never been this harsh to someone from the family before, this time he was really cruel.

But thinking of Phoebe’s bloodstained look, Victoria lost any sight of sympathy. From NôvelDrama.Org.

Phoebe was the apple of her son’s eye, she’s also her future daughter-in-law, the future young master’s wife, and the future Mrs. Fraser.

But Helena dared to hurt Phoebe, this is against the rule of the Fraser, she was asking for it.

Not even relatives could hurt her own family.

Victoria's gaze was cold, and her tone was icy.

“Let her wait outside, she cannot hold Helena again, tell her, Helena made a big mistake, there is no mercy, she should behave herself, otherwise she too will be in trouble.”

Upon hearing this the bodyguard was shocked too.

If it was only the young master treated Helena like this, it can be said that he was angry for his girl. But who would have thought that the ever fair and loving Mrs. Fraser would do the same, have little to no regard for Lady Juliette.

This time, Helena was done, completely done.

The bodyguard took the order and went out, told Juliette everything Victoria said.

Juliette was so shocked like she’s been struck by lightning, disbelief painted her face.

She couldn't have imagined Victoria would have no regard for her, that she couldn't even go in.

Anger, shame, rushed through her head.

This is the first time she has been humiliated like this in the Fraser.

“Mom, mom...I’m in pain, help me, help me...”

Helena cried and screamed, her voice hoarse from calling for help.

Juliette could almost feel her pain, but looking at the small building she couldn't even get in.

She gritted her teeth, “When will Stanford be out?”

The bodyguard shook his head, “I don’t know.”

She didn't know when would he be out, so how long is Helena going to kneel here?

How can her frail body take this? Her arm is still bleeding.

Juliette is about to go mad with anger.

And at this time, the sun came out, the burning heat cast down.

Helena is about to die from the sun.

Her whole body was wet, blood mixed with sweat.

Other people were not at ease.

They were all a part of it, we're trapped here by Stanford, they were all here, looking guilty and waiting for Stanford to punish them.

So there they stood, no one dared go into the shade.

All were burnt out by the sun, drenched in sweat, like wilted plants, suffering.

They didn't know how much time had passed.

Juliette was also sweating profusely and felt extremely uncomfortable. When her heart was torn apart and she felt that her daughter was about to die, Stanford finally emerged from the main building, walking out slowly.

Juliette didn't even have the chance to wipe the sweat from her forehead, she dashed towards Stanford.

“Stanny, let your sister go, if this continues, she is going to die.”

“We are families, blood relatives, no need to be this serious.”

“Your sister knew she made a mistake, it won’t happen again, you are her brother, can you forgive her just this once?”

Stanford walked to the door and stopped, looking at Juliette expressionless.

He said coldly, “Aunt, the rumors of Phoebe being the scourge was spread by you, right?”

Upon hearing this, Juliette’s expression changed drastically.

She was stunned for a moment and hurriedly argued.

"Stanny, have you misunderstood? It's not me, how could I do such a thing?"

“We are families, I treated you well when you are young, don’t be so harsh, can you let Helena go first?”

Stanford’s gaze was cold, he looked at Juliette who was still worried about Helena.

He investigated everything, when Phoebe first arrived at the Fraser, there were rumors about her being the scourge, all because Juliette was manipulating people to spread it.

Phoebe’s suffering lately was all caused by Juliette.

The mother and the daughter, one spread rumors, one hurt Phoebe, and they wanted to play the relative card to make him let this go?

Stanford Fraser was never soft-hearted.

Stanford ignored Juliette, he looked at the half-alive Helena with coldness in his eyes.

“You touch my girl, you have to pay the same price. Helena, you hurt Phoebe, there are 23 wounds on her body, she has five broken bones, you will suffer the same.” He said in an icy voice.

As Stanford’s words settled, four large bodyguards immediately came out from behind him, walked towards Helena with a menacing look.

Helena was trembling with fear, she screamed from the top of her lungs.

“Mom, help me, mom, help me, please help me...”

Yes, she had someone beat up Phoebe, but back then Phoebe’s condition was OK, so she still survived.

But now she’s barely surviving, if she suffers this beating, could she even live after that?

This is not the same price! This is so much worse!

Juliette was shocked as well, she didn't expect waiting for so long only for Stanford to further punish Helena.

He is going to kill her!

She rushed to Helena, stretched out her arms to protect her.

She shouted with an urge, “Stanny, don’t be like this, Helena has broken her arm, she is severely hurt right now, she can’t take any more punishment, she could die from this. Let her go, please, I’m begging you. Let her go, let her live.”

Juliette could no longer care about her appearance, with great fear she begged for her nephew’s mercy.

However, Stanford has no sympathy for her.

He orders impatiently, “Pull her away.”

The bodyguard immediately rushed to drag Juliette away.

Next, the other four bodyguards stepped forward, start beating, kicking, punching Helena mercilessly.

The scene was bloody and violent.

"Ah! Ah! Help, help ..."

Helena’s scream was heart-wrenching, but no one could save her or help her,

She could clearly feel the pain coming from all over her body, one punch after another, almost killing her.

“Helena, Helena!”

Juliette was being held and could not go to her, she watched as Helena was being beaten so bad, she is so distressed her eye socket is going to pop out.

She didn't expect Stanford could be so cruel.

Just to avenge Phoebe.

If she had known, she would not have listened to Helena, to pick on and frame Phoebe, just to drive her away from the Fraser.

If she didn't let that get into her head, tried to let Braylee Johnston seduce Stanford, she wouldn't have to suffer this pain.

Helena was already badly injured, could she have survived this beating?

She couldn't even think about it.

At this moment, Braylee squeezed through the crowd and ran to Stanford.
