Chapter 17 - PUNISHMENT.

AT THE WILLSON FAMILY BASE.

A bucket of cold freezing water poured Deon on Charles face .

Charles who had been asleep all along, couldn't help but shiver and wake up .

He looked around ,only to see three men in the dimly lit room ,one standing and two siting.

Who are you people , and why have you brought me here Charles asked .

Jashwill ,looked at him with killing intent. you don't need to know who we are , let's say that you are here to serve punishment ,and after serving it you are free to go .

Charles looked at them and couldn't figure out who they were ,but he knew that they were very powerful people ,he couldn't even figure out where he was ,all he saw around him was cutting tool, which made his spine shiver.

Are you Marianne's husband , Charles looked at Jashwill and asked .

Jashwill didn't say anything and just pointed at Raymond , who had been quite.

He locked eyes with Raymond ,and couldn't help but remove his eye ,this man cold aria was so obressive , Charles wondered.

Do you think you can hurt my wife and go Scott free, Raymond's cold voice rang out .

Sir I didn't do anything ,it was president Elvis idea ,Charles said pushing all the blame to president Elvis.

Do you know that you a very wicked being ,you have the mind to sell your own father people like you deserves to be killed , Raymond said interrupting Charles.

Sir I did want to sell her , president Elvis asked for her hand in marriage ,I was just making things easy for her ....

Making things easy for her by marrying her to an old man .

Sir it is not like that , the girl has suffered for long I wanted to better her life ,Charles explained anxiously.

Why did you lie to her that you were si k ,only Fe her to come back and see that old man in a hotel room ,to sleep with her .

Charles was shocked as to what he had ,it seems like he can't deny ,this man has already known everything ,Charles wondered to himself.

Sir that was the only was I could get her to come back , my family's company was running out of funds ,so we made a deal, that if he marries Marianne ,he will make my company rise again,Charles said .

Raymond looked at him and felt the urge to kill him ,buy he held back. I am going to ask a few questions ,and if you lie ,you will get a severe punishment.

Dud you plan the kidnap , Raymond asked.

Charles looked at Raymond ,but still lied . Sir ,I don't know anything about Marianne's kidnap.

Raymond didn't say anything and just looked at Stephen .

Stephen who received the signal walked up to Charles and held him down. Soon ,bone crackings were heard accompanied by a miserable scream .

After disabling his right hand Stephen let him go .

Charles fainted due to the pain .

Raymond stood up and gave Stephen instructions ,keep him for a week and torture him every day ,after that send him to the Griffin family's door step , Raymond said before leaving with Jashwill.

... AT THE HOSPITAL.

Sister in-law you are , getting better ,I guess you will be able to walk in about a week , Jackson who was giving Marianne a check up said .

Marianne was overjoyed after hearing what he said ,she had been tired of sitting in one place ,she needed some fresh air .

Jackson shook his head and smiled ,mum you don't have to worry ,the only thing she needs to avoid is anything cold , even if she wants to it is after she recovers but she must take one In two weeks. And she shouldn't eat spicy food because she has a weak immune system .

Soon after Jackson left a knock came from the door .
