The two of them stared at Huo Jinyao in disbelief. Madam Luo summoned the courage to object only after some time. "D-D-Director Huo, you can't do this."

Towering above them, he looked down onto the two ladies with a condescending and emotionless gaze. "Everybody's got to face the consequences of their own actions. You're not children anymore, are you?"
Huge drops of sweat streamed down Madam Luo's forehead. When she thought about the wrath she would incur in her husband when she got home, her eyes rolled up. She passed out.
