Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 973 She was Bullied

"You've really grown bolder, daring to lecture me now?" Raymond shouted furiously, hitting Silas's leg with his cane.

Silas lowered his head and remained silent, letting him hit.

But after two strikes, Raymond couldn't continue, panting weakly. "You're forbidden to speak tonight." "Yes."

Micah carefully wiped the blood and dirt off Sadie, then took a shower himself and lay down next to her.

He propped his head up with his elbow, lying on his side and quietly watching her.

She was rarely this quiet, not making a fuss and lying next to him obediently.

He remembered they had made love on this very bed two years ago. He was always infatuated with her, unable to get enough, and she would cling to him with equal passion.

Two years later, they were once again on this bed, but in a different way.

He reached out, gently brushed her hair away from her forehead, and tenderly caressed her beautiful cheek with the back of his hand. Then he leaned in, kissed her forehead, and held her tightly in his arms.

He really wished she could stay like this forever.

But just as this thought flashed through his mind, there was a rapid knock on the door from outside. "Micah, there's an urgent matter to report."

Micah had to get up, put on his robe, and walk over to open the door. "What is it?"

"Amelia has been captured," Andrew said in a low voice. "News from Dahlia says Arya is out of danger and temporarily not in life-threatening condition."

"What about Ms. James?" Annika, along with a few female bodyguards, returned in a hurry. On the way, they learned about Arya being shot. She was anxious and immediately sent two bodyguards to the hospital to check on Arya's condition. At the same time, she brought the remaining two back to find Sadie.

"Keep your voices down," Micah reminded with a frown. "She had just fallen asleep."

"I need to confirm," Annika said, a bit uneasy. "Please let me in to take a look."

Micah stepped aside.

Annika walked in quietly. Through the dim light, she saw Sadie sleeping soundly with no obvious injuries and finally felt relieved. She turned and walked out. "Sorry to disturb you." Annika saluted Micah and then went to Mia's room.

"Keep a close watch on Amelia. Don't let her escape again," Micah instructed Andrew. "Take good care of Arya at the hospital. Make sure nothing happens to her." "Understood," Andrew nodded and said in a low voice. "Rodolfo has already found Dr. Henry, but Dr. Henry said he needs to contact Ms. James before coming to Newark."

"I'll talk to her after dawn." Micah looked at his watch; it was already 3 a.m. "You can leave now."

"Yes." Andrew hurried away to oversee Amelia's supervision.

Meanwhile, Annika went to Mia's room and asked the two female bodyguards who stayed behind, "Is Ms. Mia Clemens alright?"

"She's fine," the bodyguard said in a low voice, "but Ms. James was bullied today."

"What?" Annika was shocked. "What happened?"

The bodyguard immediately recounted the incident between Sadie and Ella to Annika.

"There was a commotion outside earlier, but because this room is well-soundproofed, we couldn't hear clearly. Ms. James repeatedly reminded us to protect Ms. Mia fully and not to leave the room under any circumstances, so we didn't go out. But afterward, we learned from Susan that Ms. James and Arya were attacked outside and then caught in the rain, which triggered her old illness. Mr. Clemens carried Ms. James back. But Ella forcibly pushed Rebecca aside and ran into the room to provoke Ms. James out of jealousy while Mr. Clemens was away. Ms. James fought back in anger and nearly strangled Ella, so Raymond sent a few bodyguards to restrain her and used chains to lock her hands and feet."
