Benjamin lay sprawled on the floor, gutted and helpless—not even able to land a single blow in return.
Hogan had never liked him. Today just gave him the perfect excuse to finally put Benjamin in his place. But even watching Benjamin’s pathetic state didn’t quench the anger burning in Hogan’s chest.
After all, the person who’d gotten hurt was his own little sister.
For Hogan, this minor pain was nothing.
“Want to go another round?” Hogan’s voice was icy.
“N-no, please… No more…” Benjamin stammered, desperation flooding his voice. “Just let me go, I’m begging you…”

Only then did Hogan let him go, yanking at his tie in irritation. “Get out. And don’t let me see your face again!”
Benjamin scrambled to his feet, humiliated and limping, not daring to look back for fear Hogan might throw another punch. He hurried out as quickly as his battered body allowed.
As soon as he was gone, Marguerite watched the door, her cool gaze flickering with a complicated emotion.

And now, look at them.
