Chapter 230 
“Duh. You’ll know if you have a taste of it. Didn’t you see that Master Buckley almost swung his arm around when he hit met Hallet replied and winced when his clothes rubbed against his wound as he walked. 
“This kind of torture is no worse than that in ancient times, he added. 
“But the two of you are already adults. Why is Master Buckley still so strict with you guys” Queena felt that Vincent was strict enough, but unlike Evan, Vincent had never hit her. He was considered to be gentle. 
Her words caused Hallet to recall his childhood. 
At that time, he 
were only about ten years old. They were curious about everything, so they often went out and came home late. 
However, they live 
any time, especially at night. 

wurder, where all kinds of forces were entrenched. As the forces had no regard for people’s lives, danger could happen at 
Once, two forces came to blow. At that time, Hallet and Cynthia almost got involved in it when they snuck out to play. 
Since then, a curfew was set in Serene Sanctuary, and the two of them were forced to learn kickboxing 
Hallet told the whole thing to Queena and concluded. “Master Buckley is this strict with us because he’s worried about us. So I don’t hold a grudge against him no matter how harsh the punishment is.” 
There, he paused and snorted. “But that old man is too blased. The punishment I get is always heavier than Cynthia’s” 
Queena laughed at his behavior and replied. “Perhaps Master Buckley likes girls. I think he has been pretty good to me” 
Hallet turned to look at her bright eyes and smiled as well. 
“I like girls like you, too, he said. 
Haller’s voice was so soft that Queena did not hear him clearly 
“What did you say?” she asked. 
“Nothing. Help me in, quick. If Master Buckley comes out and sees that I’m still standing here, he might punish me again,” Haller urged 
That room was Evan’s pharmacy. There were two cushions in the middle of the room, which usually served as seats. Cynthia and Hallet usually knelt on them as their punishment when they caused trouble. 
Meanwhile, Cynthia helped Llam back to their bedroom 
Then, she took the ointment and planned to unbutton his trousers to check where he had just been spanked. 
Liam was wearing shorts with an elastic waistband today. Cynthia stood behind him and pulled it down, revealing his perky bottom 
Unable to tear her eyes away from it, she complimented, “It’s so round and perky.” 
Liam felt a litle uncomfortable. He smiled in resignation and said. “Don’t drool on my butt.” 
Cynthia withdrew her gaze and patted Liam’s bottom lightly. 
“What a narcissist, she remarked. 
Afterward, Cynthia pulled down Liam’s underpants slightly, revealing a red and swollen mark on his bottom 
Cynthia applied the cool ointment on it and said. “You didn’t have to stand in front of me just now. Master Buckley never hit me hard. It’s just for 
Liam looked ahead firmly and replied in a deep voice, “I can’t stand watching you get beaten, even if it’s just for show. As long as I’m around, I will bear all the punishment. You are my wife now, and it is my duty to protect you” 
Cynthia’s heart warmed. 
She felt very lucky to be able to return to the Larson family. Although she was thoroughly disappointed with her family, Liam gave her a lot of Surprises 
After applying the ointment to Liam’s wound, Cynthia refused to let him accompany her in carrying out the punishment. 
It took her a lot of effort to make him lie in bed, and she then got up to head to the pharmacy. 

When she entered the room, she threw the ointment on Hallet. Take it and apply it to your wound. It’ll heal quicker.” 
With that she walked to the cushion and knelt down directly 
Hallet picked up the ointment and looked at Queena who was staring at him fixedly. 
For some reason, he handed the ointment to her and asked, “Do you want to help me apply it? 
“What?” Queena blinked in confusion. 
Hallet pointed at his bottom. 
Only then did Queena realize what he meant and run away with a flushed face. 
Hallet uncapped the ointment and smeared it all over his bottom. 
Cynthia watched Queena run off, then raised her eyebrows at Haller. “When did you learn to behave like a hooligan?” she asked, leaning toward 
him 
“Huh?” Hallet replied awkwardly and put away the used ointment. 
Cynthia narrowed her eyes at him and revealed her conjecture. “Are you interested in Queena?” 
Hallet, whose thoughts were exposed, was startled, but he soon denied them a moment later. “H–H–How… is that possible?” 
His stutter betrayed his feelings. 
Hallet was disappointed in himself. Seriously, this mouth of mine… he thought as he slapped his mouth 
Even though Cynthia now knew that Haller liked Queena, she did not come up with a plan to help him court Queena. Instead, she looked serious. Hallet, you can like anyone else but not Queena,” she said. 
Hearing that, Hallet straightened his back and questioned, “Why? What’s wrong with me?” 
Cynthia knew Haller had misunderstood her, so she quickly explained, “Hallet, that’s not what I meant. You and Queena belong to two different worlds. She can’t adapt to your lifestyle, and she has a brother who loves her so much that he won’t allow you two to be together” 
At that moment, Hallet’s mind was filled with Queena’s face. 
“That’s not a big deal. I can also adapt to her lifestyle. She doesn’t have to accommodate me. If her brother won’t allow us to be together, then I will pester him till he changes his mind,” he said. 
Cynthia frowned. 
If Vincent knew that someone wanted to date his sister, he would have flown over immediately and brought Queens back with him. 
“You may be determined, but what does Queena think?” Cynthia asked 
A hint of embarrassment Eashed across Hallet’s face, and he smiled awkwardly. “She doesn’t know that I like her.” 
Cynthia was speechless. So it’s an unrequited love; I was worried for nothing. Although Queena is an adult, Vincent protected her well since childhood. She has never been in a relationship before, so she has no experience when it comes to romance. Queena may not have realized that Hallet liked her. If Hallet confesses his love to her recklessly, he might scare off the innocent young woman. Anyway, we’ll be going back in a few days, so they probably will lose contact with each other in the future, she thought and was eventually relieved. 
Both of them continued to kneel inside the room without saying a word. 
Cynthia was hungry at the moment. 
She and Hallet did not eat much for lunch and were made to kneel before they could have dinner. 
Cynthia kept stroking her belly as her stomach was growling loudly. 
Half an hour later, just as she could not stand it anymore, the door of the pharmacy was pushed open. 
A tantalizing fragrance wafted in. 
Smelling the fragrance, Cynthia tilted her head and saw Liam, whom she had onto a walking stick with the other.
