Chapter 232 Mr. Zackary was so cheesy!

Andrew sneered, sleazy and twisted, "Corona, I'm waiting for you, begging me... to hurt you!"

"Bang!"

After Wilton's men unlocked the apartment door, he kicked it open directly. Just as Andrew was about to show off his power on Corona, he felt a pain in his shoulder. His not-so-tall body was thrown harshly onto the ground.

Andrew fell awkwardly, landing directly on a pile of broken vase pieces, the pain was so intense that it made him question his life.

After a few screams, it was a towering rage.

Andrew struggled to get up from the ground, covered in blood, and snarled at Wilton, "Who's this blind little brat! Daring to mess with your grandpa! Watch how I..."

Upon seeing Wilton's face clearly, Andrew's furious voice abruptly stopped.

Even though he was still in so much pain that he was gritting his teeth, even though he wished he could throw Wilton into the sea to feed the fishes, he dared not continue to yell at the renowned Mr. Norton of Sea City.

His voice trembled as he spoke, "Mr. ... Mr. Norton, how did you find the time to honor us with your presence?"

After taking that hit from Wilton, Andrew was initially quite scared. But remembering that he was the close friend of his brother-in-law, he instantly regained a good deal of confidence.

With a sycophantic smile, he began, "Mr. Norton, it seems there was a bit of a misunderstanding between us just now. But it's alright, you're a good friend of my brother-in-law. I won't hold it against you for hitting me."

"By the way, Mr. Norton, this woman, she was given to me by my brother-in-law. She might be a bit ugly, but she's wild. Mr. Norton, would you like to try... tonight?"

"Bang!"

Before Andrew could finish his sentence, Wilton had already landed a heavy punch on his face. He cried out in pain, spitting out a mouthful of blood, along with a tooth.

Just as Andrew was about to say something else, Wilton landed another punch on his face. This time, he targeted his nose, breaking it instantly.

The kung fu skills of Wilton and Zackary were personally taught by Jayden. The ability of these two to beat people up was not a joke.

Andrew was pretty good at fighting, but his tricks were nothing compared to Wilton's.

Andrew was already gasping in pain when his front tooth fell out. Now that his nose had been broken, he was in so much pain that he couldn't even cry.

"Mr. ... Mr. Norton..."

Andrew gasped for a good while before he finally regained his voice.

Even now, he still didn't understand why Mr. Norton, who had such a good relationship with his brother-in-law, had burst in to give him a beating while he was just disciplining an ungrateful woman.

"Mr. Norton, what on earth have I done to offend you? Have you beaten the wrong person?! I am Mr. Burke, the close uncle of your good brother Mr. Burke!" Andrew spoke with a leaky voice, and a heavy sobbing tone, showing a complete lack of backbone.

"Andrew, the woman I loved, I cherished her like a treasure, yet you hurt her to this extent, you, you deserve to die!"

Wilton kicked hard at Andrew's vital spot, his kick was so fierce that it sent him flying directly into a nearby wall.

He clutched himself there, screaming like a slaughtered pig, unable to utter a single coherent sentence.

"Corona!"

Seeing Corona covered in blood, Wilton didn't bother to continue scolding Andrew. He stepped forward, carefully cradling her in his arms.

"Sorry, I was late."

Corona shook her head gently, "It's not late, Mr. Norton, thank you."

Thank you for allowing me to retain my final dignity.

Thank you for making my life more than just an endless, desolate darkness.

"Corona!"

When Penelope and Zackary arrived, this was the scene they saw: Corona was tightly held in Wilton's arms, her back drenched in blood.

Seeing the bloody, fleshly wound on Corona's back, her tears fell with a plop.

"Corona, how are you? Are you in a lot of pain?"

After asking, Penelope truly felt that her question was simply nonsense. How could such a serious injury not hurt!

Corona, however, was smiling and gently shaking her head, "Penelope, don't worry, I'm not in pain, really, I'm not."

Upon hearing Corona's words, Penelope's tears fell even more fiercely. Her Corona, such a big fool, always considered her more important than himself. In order not to worry her, even though he was so badly hurt, he still tried hard to smile.

Seeing Penelope, Andrew was like seeing a lifesaver. He stammered, "Sister Penelope, help! Mr. Norton has gone mad, he wants to kill me!"

At that moment, Penelope noticed Andrew, who was awkwardly slumped in the corner.

Here, was Andrew's apartment, and given his character, Penelope could guess with her toes what he had done to Corona.

The more Penelope thought about it, the angrier she became. She turned around and stormed up to Andrew, brutally kicking him straight in the face.

"Andrew, I told you to bully Corona! I'll kill you!"

"Penelope!" Seeing Penelope about to kick Andrew again, Zackary quickly pulled her aside.

Penelope was already on the verge of exploding, and Zackary's obstruction only made her more furious. Just as she was about to push him away, he stood in front of her, and with one kick, he directly knocked Andrew's head askew.

"Penelope, let me handle the fighting! He's thick-skinned and tough, I'm afraid if you hit him, your foot will hurt!"

Alright...

Zackary stopped her, not because he couldn't bear to part with Andrew.

He was really speechless about this person, Zackary. Not long ago, he was gnashing his teeth at her, wishing he could cut her into a thousand pieces. Now, in front of her, he was spouting all kinds of cheesy love words. Who cares!

However, inexplicably, I wasn't that angry anymore.

But still felt heartbroken.

Seeing the shards of a vase still lodged in Corona's back, Penelope's tears, uncontrollably, began to fall again.

Zackary, at that time, couldn't bear to see Penelope shed a single tear.

After beating Andrew up again, he quickly walked over to Penelope, pleasingly pulling out a small bottle of ointment housed in a delicate white porcelain jar from his pocket.

"Penelope, stop crying! Didn't you want Corona's face to get better? I asked my mom for help, you have to trust my mom, her medicine will definitely make her face better."

Penelope was taken aback. She really hadn't expected Zackary to be so kind as to actually get her ointment from Cornelia.

Seeing her silly and stunned look, Zackary found her incredibly cute and couldn't help but tease her, "Penelope, last night, you even kissed me voluntarily for this ointment, I definitely can't let you down!"

Originally, seeing the ointment in Zackary's hand, Penelope was slightly touched. Now, she just thought he was shameless.

Seeing Penelope's flushed face, Zackary felt a wave of tenderness in his heart. He was afraid that she would become angry out of embarrassment and ignore him, so he decided not to tease her anymore and quickly handed the ointment to her.

Just as Penelope was about to give the ointment to Corona, a sudden kick at the door echoed through the small apartment. The shaky front door was violently swung open, and Devon, radiating a chilling aura, stormed in with a grim expression on his face.
