Is He Standing Up for Her?

Viola had been upset over the past few days, and XX didn't come at a good time.
Jane was dragged out, crying.
The room finally quieted down. Viola sat down next to Sherlyn's bed and started peeling an apple carefully.
Sherlyn stared at Viola intently, smiled in relief, and said, "It's been so many years since we last met. You've changed a lot. However, the current you is really bold in doing things, and I like it very much."
"You can actually be bold too."
Sherlyn's eyes darkened. She said, "No, I'm different. I'm different from all the contestants here. They either have a company or a wealthy family behind them, but I only have myself."
Viola put down the apple, held Sherlyn's hand, and said, "You stood out from a hundred contestants on your own and made it to the finals step by step. Don't you think you're amazing?"
"But I only rank the fifteenth. I can't be a star. Jane told me that the entry to debut has already been bought by various big companies. I won't have a chance."
Viola chuckled.
This was her company, and the program was organized by her. She had specially informed her subordinates that they were not allowed to take a bribe and save the spot for anyone. How could there be someone who knew this better than her?
Sherlyn's looks were not bad, and although she was not stunning, she was good-looking.
And she was a cute and innocent girl.
With such looks and talents, Sherlyn could make it far in the entertainment industry.
For her or the company's sake, Viola intended to support Sherlyn!
"Don't worry, my program will never have an inside story. As long as you work hard, there will be a chance. Moreover, even if you fail to debut this time, I will let Angle Group sign you as an S-level artist."
Tears flickered in Sherlyn's eyes.
She bit her lips in disbelief, not letting her tears fall.
Viola rubbed Sherlyn's head and said, "This time, you will go all out against your goal."
"Thank you, Viola ... Although you haven't told me who you are, I know that you are an amazing girl" Sherlyn was so moved that she hugged Viola.
"In the future, if any other contestants bully you, just fight back head-on! The weaker you are, the more insatiable they are. Only when you stand up will they fear you. Don't be afraid, I will be your backer in the future!"
Sherlyn hugged Viola tightly, her heart filled with determination.
Viola left. At night on the same day, Sherlyn had just left the medical room when she was blocked in the bathroom by Monica and her two helpers.
Because it was during a holiday, there were no cameras on the base, and it was even more impossible for a place like a bathroom to have surveillance cameras.
Monica rushed back to the base after learning that Jane had been kicked out of the competition, not knowing why. She intended to teach Sherlyn a lesson so that she would not dare to be a tattletale again.
Sherlyn trembled as she was forced to the corner. What Viola told her during the day suddenly flashed through her mind.
Sherlyn gritted her teeth, raised the dirty mop in the corner, and waved it at the three people.
"Monica, let me tell you. I was the one who gave in to you in the past. From now on, you can forget about bullying me again!"
"Well, alright! Then let's play a game and see if you can win against three people!"
The four girls soon started fighting, and the screams in the bathroom were continuous and chaotic.
Viola found out about this the next morning.
Monica was badly battered and beaten up, threatening to hire a lawyer to sue Sherlyn for personal injury.
Rayna said, "Three of you couldn't beat a single one, yet you still have the nerve to complain first."
Viola also laughed and said, "I'll leave this matter to you. Let Monica hire a lawyer or do anything else. We will do everything we can to support Sherlyn."
"No problem, Ms. Zumthor!"
Viola had been busy with work for a few days, and others were not idle either.
At Bay Villa.
Viola hadn't come back once for three days in a row. Orlando didn't know what was wrong with him, and he just felt very unhappy.
As long as he closed his eyes, the scene of Viola and Russell being together would appear before his eyes...
At the thought of that scene, he felt uncomfortable as if everything was wrong.
Why was it like this?
In the past, Orlando thought that he loved Anaya. But later on, he discovered that he was only taking care of her out of his responsibility as a man and a brother.
However, Viola was different. She was always able to arouse many of his emotions, such as anger, surprise, heartache, and guilt.
Viola seemed to be a special existence to him.
Although Orlando's heart was in a mess, he had not been idle in the past few days.
He pretended to go out and let the bodyguards in the dark come out to stop him. He found the hiding spots of the two bodyguards left behind in the villa and figured out the rules. If Viola did not come back tonight, it would be a good opportunity to meet up with Todd.
Orlando was sitting on the sofa and pondering, and the door to the living room that connected to the garden was suddenly opened.
Thinking that Viola was back, Orlando got up to welcome her.
It was not Viola, but Jimmy.
Behind Jimmy were three similarly tall men. They aggressively walked in and stared at Orlando with unfriendly gazes.
Orlando felt a hint of threat. He looked at Jimmy and asked calmly, "What is this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the three men behind Jimmy suddenly walked toward him in a fierce and ferocious manner.
Two of them walked up to Orlando and locked his shoulders.
The other walked up to Orlando and fiercely raised his palm, ready to swing it at Orlando's cheek which had just recovered two days ago.
Jimmy stopped the man in time and said, "Mr. McGraw said not to hit him in the face! With such a weak body, how many slaps could he take? Don't ruin his face."
Mr. McGraw?
Orlando narrowed his eyes and sneered. "I wonder how I offended Mr. McGraw. Does he want to beat me up?"
Jimmy imitated Russell's cold tone and said, "You didn't offend him, but you injured Ms. Zumthor. Mr. McGraw must punish you!"
Is Russell feeling sorry for Viola and standing up for her?
Orlando felt very strange in his heart.
"So this is only Russell's idea, not Viola's?"
Jimmy was silent for a moment.
"What's the difference? As a servant who signed the agreement with Ms. Zumthor, you should never have any ill intentions against her! But you not only sneaked into her room late at night but also injured her. Shouldn't you be punished?"
Although Orlando didn't mean to hurt Viola in this matter, it was because of him.
He should take responsibility.
Moreover, judging from these men Russell had sent over, it was likely that he must suffer today.
"Ask them to let go of me. How do you want them to punish me? I will accept it."
"Good! you really have guts."
Jimmy winked at the two people who held Orlando, and the two let Orlando go.
"The punishment is very simple. Considering your current physical condition, Mr. McGraw decides to only give you a hundred whips as a warning. How about it? Is it acceptable for you?"
Jimmy pulled out two long vines as thick as an index finger from somewhere and stared at Orlando with a smile.
Jimmy had originally planned to use the horsewhip.
However, being whipped by that thing, even a horse with coarse skin and thick flesh could break its skin, let alone McGraw, who had been injected with special medicine and was extremely fragile. Russell was afraid that if Orlando couldn't take a few hits and died, it would be hard to explain to Viola.
But the rattan was different. Vines wouldn't make people bleed that easily, but they could make people in pain. Especially the next day, the wound would be swollen.
That feeling was very torturous...
Orlando also knew this, and his lips curled into a mocking smile.
"It is indeed simple. Mr. McGraw is really generous and tolerant."
