Chapter 7 Shrew

• “Mommy, Stanley hit me! My lips are bleeding, help!” The child ran to the young lady and wailed in distress while pointing at Stanley.
• “Darling, it’s alright. I’ll seek revenge for you,” the young lady consoled her son, glaring at Stanley angrily.
• “B******, you dare hit my son? Do you have a death wish?” she declared.
• Stanley cowered back in fear upon seeing the young lady’s glare.
• Rising to his feet, Alex frowned and gazed at her sharply. “You’re an adult. Why are you reprimanding a kid? Besides, you haven’t asked why my son had hit your son, right?”
• “Oh? I know you. You’re the loser who couldn’t even look after your own wife. Who are you to talk some sense into me?” The young lady immediately recognized Alex, as he was a bodyguard who had worked under her husband.
• Her disdain for him was evident. He could bear to put up with the fact that his wife had become someone else’s mistress!
• A flash of anger rippled through Alex’s eyes. He would have given her a slap if the kids weren’t here.
• B****, you deserve a slap from me!
• “Stop glaring at me! Both of you need to kneel and apologize to my son this instant. If you fail to do so, I won’t let you losers off the hook so easily!” The young lady demanded.
• Alex’s gaze darkened immediately. The young lady stiffened before slapping him across the face. “Don’t you understand? I’d said, kneel and apologize to my son this instant!”
• Alex swiveled, avoiding the young lady’s slap.
• “Hey! How dare you avoid it?” she cried out furiously.
• “You mean that I’ve got to simply allow you to slap me?” Alex’s voice grew icy.
• “Yes, that’s right. Today, besides slapping you, both of you also need to kneel and apologize to my son! If you’re not sincere enough, don’t bother standing up!” the young lady announced arrogantly.
• “What if I refuse to do so?” Alex mocked, utterly livid.
• “Refuse?” The young lady roared in anger, reaching out to slap Alex once again.
• Loser, how dare you talk back to me? You’re asking for this! she thought angrily.
• This time, Alex no longer avoided her. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the young lady’s hand, twisting it slightly. The young lady immediately released an excruciating yell.
• “Let go! Loser, let me go! Hey, the loser is beating me up! He’s going to kill me!”
• “Bad guy! Let my Mommy go. Bad guy, let me beat you up!” The little boy saw what was going on and ran to Alex, raining punches on his thigh.
• Snorting, Alex released his grip on the young lady’s wrist. She promptly rubbed her aching wrist as she flashed a vicious glare at Alex.
• “Benny Langdon! Go away! If you hit my Daddy again, I’ll kill you!” Since young Benny was still hitting Alex’s thigh, Stanley rushed forward, almost attempting to hit him as well.
• “Mommy, he wants to beat me up!” Benny hurriedly went back to the young lady and wailed pitifully.
• The young lady was so infuriated that she leaped towards Alex shrewdly. “Die, both of you!”
• However, before her hands could reach Alex’s face, he had already planted a slap upon her face.
• Slap!
• The young lady was stunned by the slap that was delivered to her.
• “H... How dare you hit me?”
• Alex snorted and replied, “This slap is to teach you a lesson. Don’t be rude to everyone you meet.”
• Before the young lady realized what was going on, another slap landed on her face.
• “This slap is to teach you to how to behave,” Alex announced.
• “You... You!”
• The young lady was utterly enraged after being slapped twice. “Stay right here. Don’t leave!”
• She grabbed hold of her phone and made a phone call. “Your wife and son are going to be beaten up! Where are you? Come to the kindergarten this instant!”
• “D*** it, does that person have a death wish? I’ll be there in a few minutes. Wait for me!” A man’s furious voice rang from the other end before he hung up abruptly.
• The young lady pocketed her phone and threatened Alex arrogantly, “My husband is coming soon. I’ll ensure that the both of you will end up groveling at my feet! Mark my words!”
• She paused before adding, “By the way, since you had just slapped me twice, you’ll get slapped ten times in return. I’ll also ask my husband to fire you, loser!” she announced.
• Ms. Winston, who had witnessed the entire scene sighed and looked at Alex. “Alex, Mrs. Langdon’s husband is a manager in Four Seas Corporation. You shouldn’t offend him. I think that you and Stanley should apologize to her now so that she wouldn’t put you in a tight spot later.”
• “It’s fine. Let’s see if her husband will ask me to apologize later,” Alex responded coldly.
• He had managed to guess the identity of the young lady’s husband based on her words.
• Ms. Winston shook her head and kept silent. I’ve done what I could, so if they get insulted later, they’d deserve it, she thought.
• The young lady seemed smug and continued sneering, “I hope you’ll remain this calm later.”
• Alex proceeded to ignore her and patted Stanley’s head. In a low voice, he uttered, “Let’s wait a bit more. Daddy will bring you home after this.”
• “Daddy, will they beat us up?” Stanley asked nervously.
• Alex shot him a reassuring smile. “Daddy is here. No one will dare to bully us.”
• “Mm, I trust you, Daddy.” Stanley nodded, as the fear in his eyes faded away.
• Five minutes later, a VW arrived at the kindergarten’s entrance. James Langdon alighted the car and rushed into the kindergarten immediately.
• The security failed to stop him.
• “Hey! Who has beaten up my wife and son? Come on out!” James yelled loudly, attracting the attention of everyone present.
• “James Langdon, you’re finally here! I’d nearly got beaten to death!”
• The young lady pointed at Alex and uttered haughtily, “It’s this loser subordinate of yours. Tell him to get on his knees. I’ll slap his face today!”
• “D*** you...”
• James turned in Alex’s direction and was about to curse when he had suddenly spotted Alex. His voice stopped abruptly.
• “Your wife wants me to get on my knees. What do you think?” Alex mocked, his gaze fixated on James.
• Shocked, James immediately fell onto his knees before Alex.
• “M... Mr. Jefferson, I’m sorry! I didn’t know that it was you!” James lowered his head as his body trembled in fear.
