Chapter 24 - Terrified Of His Mother

When Luna grab his shirt and pull him away from the man on the bench, he feels a bit irked but to not angering his wife, he obediently follows her.

"Luna! Wait!" Nick went after her to the side road where Mr. Carson park their black Jaguar car there.

Luna's head fills with so many things that she can barely hold anymore. Stop her pace, she turns around and looks at the man who still chasing her from behind.

"Look, Nick, I very appreciate it if you did not say one word about this to anyone. Please?" She looks like she really means it.

Looking at her dismayed face, he slowly nods his head. "I won't."

"Thank you. I am very sorry for what he does to you."

Raymond snapped his head toward Luna. His face clouded and he clenches his jaw secretly.

"Then, I'll see you at school?" He still wants to keep in touch with her, he ready to forget about what happens today if she can keep in contact with him later.

"Yeah. See you at school." She smiles a bit before she opens the car door and let Raymond get in first before she followed after that.

Closed the car door, Mr. Carson drive them back to the mansion. The three of them keep silent all the way long to the mansion.

Raymond clearly in sulking mode judging by his way of sitting, facing the other side of the car window. Not even want to look at her at all. His face still hurt from the punched by that guy, yet, no word from his darling at all. No comforting or whatever it is to soothe his anger.

Once the car entered the mansion's lawn, Mr. Carson faces turn pale as a sheet. "Oh, my dear." He murmuring a bit to which caught Luna's attention.

"What's wrong?" Luna straightens her back and looks at the front. There's two black Maybach Emperor car parked at the front of the mansion entrance pavement.

"Madam Barbara is here." Mr. Carson uttered in nervous. "Please, do not say anything that would anger her, let me do the explanation." He stated and pull over the car behind the black Maybach Emperor.

Once they enter the house, the first thing greeted them is the flying ceramic vase.

Raymond who saw it, immediately pull Luna closer to him and cover her with his body, but Mr. Carson was the first one who gets the hit as he tries to protect them both.

Prang!!!

The vase hit straight at Mr. Carson's head before the shattered glass fall to the floor. The blood then flowing down from his forehead. However hurt he is, he still bows his head to the one who throws that vase.

"Good Evening, Madam Wayne."

Luna was so shocked to see how dangerous the situation is. She might be the one who gets the hit instead of Mr. Carson and the way Raymond instinctively protect her also out of her imagination at all.

"Where did you take my son?!!" Barbara shriek like they were deaf people.

"I'm sorry, Ma'am. We were only taking fresh air at the park." Mr. Carson does the explanation as he stated in the car before.

"You bring my son out of this mansion?!! are you out of your mind?!!"

"I am very sorry ma'am. This will not happen again." He still dare not lift up his head even though he starts to feel a bit dizzy. The blood from his forehead already dripping on the floor like a leaking pipe.

"Huh! You have to be disciplined again, butler Carson." Barbara glare at two of her bodyguard which is two times bigger than Mr. Carson and their bulging body looked like more ruffians than a bodyguard.

"Take him!"

Upon hearing those two words, Mr. Carson shut his eyes in despair. What a bad luck day today. He knew for sure the word 'discipline' means he gonna get a beating from these bodyguard of that wench.

Luna could not stand anymore when two of the bodyguard start to pulling Mr. Carson out of the hall, his condition is way too bad with the bleeding in his head, he can die if get torture.

"W-wait!"

Luna kneels in front of the woman, try to beg her to not hurt Mr. Carson. The idea is originally hers, to begin with. She was the one who allowed Raymond to get out of the house. She doesn't know that her mother-in-law will be this furious.

"M-mother. It was me. It was my idea to bring Raymond out." She looks at her with teary eyes. Looked at how disgusted her face reaction, she knew, her mother-in-law never once like her at all. Nevertheless, she still in the wrong to bring Raymond out of the mansion.

"It was you?" She strides closer to both of them. Raymond at behind her starts fidgeting anxiously. He was terrified of his mother.

Luna nod and from her corner of eyes, she could see Mr. Carson shake his head helplessly. It was like he's saying 'you're done.'

Barbara's stiletto clicking the floor, it sounded like a crackling fire on the hell's ground. She then closely observed her son's face which a bit swelled on the corner of his mouth and there's a trace of blood. Looking at that is enough to burn her with anger.

"Hold her up." Barbara looks at the bodyguard who still at the side of the hall. They stopped dragging Mr. Carson when Luna start kneels in front of their madam earlier. Hearing another instruction from the lady boss, they release Mr. Carson and went to the girl who kneeling on the floor.

"M-Mother..p-p-please, d-d-don't." Raymond tugs his hand to his mother's dress. His word becomes more stuttering than before, it indicates that he is now restless, anxious and afraid.

"Look at what she's done to you. Never in my life, I lay my finger on you. How dare she make you like this! She tries to rotten your mind just like your grandma!"

"M-mother, I-I-its m-my f-fault." He said again, still backing up Luna even though he still sulking.

Barbara ignores her son and went to the girl which is already forced to stand up with both of her hand being held by two bodyguards.

Pap!!

A loud sound can be heard across the spacious hall. Luna's face tilted to the right side, a bit numb and pain start to creep on her face to which she gasps a bit.

Pap!!

Another slap coming again without any warning. She's been brutally slapped by her mother-in-law to which her face swollen two times than Raymond.

Not only that, the torturing part still continues with Raymond start his tantrum, screaming and crying to stop his mother from hitting his darling.
