Chapter 20 : Ripping Off Mr.
Newtons Mask Griffin , seemingly unable to control his temper and desires , unbuckled his belt and chased after Mr.
Newton , striking him .
Bastard ! Who told you to run ! Kneel before me and lick my toes ! You dare run ? Ill beat you to death today ! In a moment of carelessness , Mr.
Newton was struck on the back with the whip .
His steps quickened as he stumbled and crawled down the stairs .
Security ! Security ! He screamed as he ran , but unfortunately , the music from the party was too loud , and 1/14 Chapter 20 : Ripping Off Mr.
Newton … +5 Points the security guards didnt hear him .
A few waiters tried to intervene , only to be struck by Griffins belt as well .
No one was willing to risk their lives for a few thousand dollars , so they retreated and became mere onlookers .
The once gossiping noblewomen were now startled by the scene .
However , as Griffin lost his belt , his trousers slipped down as he descended the stairs , revealing his tight white briefs beneath .
That grotesque sight stood erect .
The most horrifying part was that he was chasing after a man a man over fifty years old ! Whispers began to circulate about the relationship between Griffin and Mr.
Newton .

But then heherea embered , Hope would 3/14 Chapter 20 : Ripping Off Mr.

The pain she was enduring today would be nothing compared to what lay ahead .
Thus , he hypocritically said , Hope , wait a moment .
Ill call security right away ! Without even looking back , he ran off .
As Griffins second lash of the belt was about to descend , Hope showed a look of despair and closed her eyes , at the same time , a silver needle shot out .
Afraid of witnessing Hope vomiting blood from another beating , everyone covered their eyes , unwilling to watch .
Thus , no one saw the silver needle fly .
The needle struck Griffin , and he instantly 5/14 Chapter 20 : Ripping Off Mr.
Newton … + 5 Points collapsed , lying on the floor as if he were asleep .
Just then , Mr.
Newton returned with security , and upon seeing Griffin lying motionless , his heart sank .
He rushed over , shouting at Hope , Hope , what did you do to Mr.
Berry ? I didnt do anything .
Hope , her lips still oozing blood , her eyes rimmed red with tears , looked every bit the picture of victim hood .
The onlookers couldnt help but feel sympathy .
One of the noblewomen who had previously gossiped could no longer hold back .

Newton … + 5 Points C Although Hope lacked manners and etiquette , she had been abandoned since childhood , without parents , and it was no surprise that she had not been properly raised .
For the Newton family to have found her and yet not properly nurture or pamper her how could they be so cruel ? Mr.
Newton , this isnt right ! You put your daughter in danger , didnt protect her , and even pushed her out to take the lash for you ! Exactly ! Your daughters hurt , and instead of showing concern , youre asking what she did to Mr.
Berry ! Are you even her real father ? The girl did nothing ! It was Griffin who collapsed on his own .

Newton … + 5 Points Wait , now I feel a little sorry for this girl .
Shes been an orphan for so many years , finally found her family , and yet shes treated like this .
The murmurs grew louder , with some people , thinking themselves above the Newton family , started to lecture .
Others , of lower status , seized the chance to criticize the powerful , reveling in the moment .
The cacophony of voices overwhelmed Mr.
Newton , and he couldnt discern who had said what , but it all pierced his ears like a dagger .
When had he ever been so openly scorned ? 8/14 Chapter 20 : Ripping OffMrMeMewton … + 5 Points All of it was because ofthatatwretched Hope ! Yet , in the moment , he knew Wehledad to maintain his public image.e .

Mr.
Newton froze , and again , the sounds of criticism filled the air .
Shes been beaten to the point of vomiting blood ! Why not go to the hospital first ? Whats the use of going home ? Even if theres a doctor at home , she should get a full checkup at the hospital .
What if theres internal damage ? Seems like she was never really loved .

The doctor treated Hopes injuries , and when it came time to pay , Hope realized he hadnt even covered her medical expenses .
But she could guess his intentions .
Since his plan to send her to Griffin had failed , and he hadnt killed her on the spot , it was already a stroke of luck .
How could he possibly pay for her treatment ? Hope paid the bill and kept the receipt .
All of this would be repaid .
As she had originally planned to take a taxi , she suddenly remembered the message Easton had sent her earlier .
She sent Easton her location .
