Chapter 87
Eric was Sebastian’s friend and seemed to have known Vicky for a long time,
but Vicky did not remember much about him.

go on.”
Mandy’s eyes seemed swollen, and she looked extremely tired as she
reluctantly apologized to Vicky. ’Missus Hart, I was wrong for what I did
yesterday. I’m sorry. Please forgive me.”
Before Vicky could respond, they all heard a voice coming from the stairway. “If
someone chops your hand off and apologizes to you afterward, will you forgive

her, Miss Simmons?”
Eric, Scott, and Mandy all paled in unison.
Dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, Tyler stepped down the stairs
elegantly. His eyes were steady and calm, but his words brought chills to their
spines.
Scott had not expected Tyler to be so angry about the incident.
Sure enough, he was.
Scott received a call from old Master Simmons the night before, who shouted at
him relentlessly and gave him an ultimatum. “If you can’t appease Tyler Hart’s
anger, leave Mandy be and let her suffer the consequences alone! She kept
causing trouble even back when she was overseas and was chased out of the
country after crossing a powerful family over there…
“It’s only been a short while since she came back, and now, she’s crossed Tyler
Hart?! If this sister of yours keeps causing us trouble, I’ll have her denounced!”
Mandy was Scott’s sister, and Scott would always take care of whatever mess
she made.
The two had been living overseas most of their lives until Mandy drove under
intoxication and injured a member of an extremely wealthy family. Scott did not
have the ability to deal with the family and was left with no option but to run
back to Stoneford City with his sister.
Eric, on the other hand, was their cousin.
To resolve the conflict, Scott called Eric along, hoping that he could help to beg
for mercy as he was the only one who knew Vicky in person.
Just then, their expressions darkened at Tyler’s words, sensing that Tyler meant
to demand Mandy’s arm in return for what she did to Vicky.
‘Vicky was just bitten by a dog, and he wants to chop Mandy’s hand off? Isn’t
that too much?!’ Scott thought to himself and cursed inwardly for Tyler’s
ruthlessness. However, he did not dare to cross someone feared by even old
Master Simmons, especially when the fault was with Mandy’s dog to begin with.
He immediately regained his composure and said to Mandy, “Mandy, get on
your knees and apologize!”
Mandy sobbed. “Scott…”
“Kneel!” interjected Scoff gruffly.
He always spoiled Mandy and would resolve whatever problem she caused.
Mandy had never seen her brother in such a state before, and since Tyler
threatened to cut her hand off, she shivered as fear triumphed over her
resentment toward Vicky. Thus, she kneeled before Vicky.
Eric, who had remained quiet the entire time, spoke in a gentle voice,” Mister
Hart, Missus Hart, we’re deeply sorry for what happened yesterday. I know that
no apology would make up for what Missus Hart has suffered…” He paused,
before continuing, “Mandy is still young, and without her arm, her whole life will
be ruined. We could break her arm instead as a punishment to give her a
chance to repent for her mistakes… 1
“Mister Hart, Missus Hart, what do you think?”
If an arm was broken, it could recover in a matter of months. On the other hand,
if her hand was severed, she would be ruined and incomplete for the rest of her
life.
Both Scott and Mandy snapped their heads around and gaped at Eric in
disbelief. They had called him here to beg for mercy and could not understand
why they needed to break Mandy’s arm when she already kneeled and
apologized.
Vicky was stunned as well, but Tyler’s devilish voice rose again.
