Chapter 567: Chapter 567

Shannon thought, ‘Go ahead and beat Justin to death! At least then, I can vent my anger!’

Almost all of Tideview Manor’s employees were gathered in the villa’s first-floor hall and stood in neat rows.

When Bethany heard Justin was going to get a beating, she was so happy that she nearly broke out into a dance and even went to look for the little sister she nearly forgot existed, Carrie Salvador.

“Hey, idiot!”

Bethany kicked the door of Carrie’s room open. Carrie had been drawing and dropped her pencil in shock.

“W-What’s the matter, B-Bethany?”

“Aren’t you going to go downstairs to watch the show? Justin’s ab to get a beating! Hahahahahaha!” Bethany threw her head back in wild laughter.

“Justin?! Why?!” Carrie panicked.

“Why? Because he was too bold and dared to talk back to our esteemed father!”

Bethany smiled gloatingly. “Hmph! He really doesn’t know what’s good for him. Does he think he’s all that just because he’s the president of Salvador Corporation? He should have considered it

carefully. If it weren’t for our eldest brother’s poor health, would Justin even be sitting in that position today? And if it weren’t for Daddy taking pity on Justin for his mother dying young, he would’ve been sent to the overseas branch long ago! He wouldn’t be enjoying his position today. What an unappreciative fool!”

No matter how often Carrie was called an idiot, she was not really one. She could tell that Bethany was looking down on and mocking

Justin.

She felt indignant. Gathering her courage, she retorted timidly, “Justin isn’t like that… You and Mom must have teamed up to bully Justin.”

“You stupid idiot! What did you say?!”

When Carrie saw Bethany lunge at her with wild eyes like a mad dog, she shut her eyes tightly in fear and reflexively covered her head with her arms.

“Ms. Bethany.”

Right then, the female helper who usually cared for Carrie walked in and anxiously said, “Chairman Salvador wants you and Ms. Carrie to go downstairs right now.”

Upon hearing this, Bethany put down the arm she had raised high above her head and said with resentment, “Got it.”

She turned to leave in a huff.

“Ms. Carrie, are you alright?!” The female helper rushed over to Carrie, sweating. She felt so bad for Carrie when she saw how pale she was.

“I’m fine. Thank you, Linny. If you hadn’t made it in time…” Carrie’s clear, doe-like eyes teared up halfway through her sentence, and she

trailed off, not daring to continue.

“Ms. Carrie… Oh, look at you!”

Linny took Carrie’s ice-cold hand, her gaze full of heartache. She pushed up Carrie’s sleeve, only to see bruises covering Carrie’s arms. Her tears were about to fall from her face as she said, “Ms. Bethany has bullied you so badly that there isn’t an unmarked spot on your body! Things can’t go on like this. Please tell Chairman Salvador about this. Even if Madam Shannon doesn’t take it seriously, Chairman Salvador is your father. He won’t just ignore it!”

Carrie hurriedly retracted her hand and hung her head in thought for a few seconds before saying softly, “You should head down first. Dad has called for me, so I’ll head down in a bit.”

Linny sighed helplessly and had no choice but to leave.

Once the door closed, Carrie immediately dug out her phone and pulled up Bella’s phone number in a practiced manner.

After a few seconds of hesitation, she finally mustered up the courage to call Bella.

The call quickly connected, and a gentle voice came through. “Carrie, what made you think of calling me? Do you need help with something?”

When Carrie heard Bella’s familiar voice, she choked up.

Finally, unable to hold back any longer, her crystalline tears welled over her reddened eyes.

“Carrie? Carrie? What happened? Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Bella’s voice was filled with worry.

“Annie… Justin’s being bullied.”

Bella was puzzled by this. Thinking that Carrie was exaggerating, she joked, “Justin Salvador is being bullied? Who in this world can bully him? He could rip off someone’s head and kick it around as a ball!”

“My mother and father are teaming up to bully him. My father is going to discipline him. They’re going to give Justin a beating!” Carrie was panicking as she paced her room in circles.

“Discipline?” Bella was stunned.

“Annie! Please Please save Justin! My father is about to start beating him soon. What if he kills Justin?!”
