Chapter 829

Vania could only hop back like a little rabbit in front of Hanson. "Darling, this was how I hopped around," she said with a sense of accomplishment in her tone.

Walking up to her, Hanson asked indifferently, "How do you feel?"

"I don't feel anything." She was slightly puzzled, but she still patted her leg to show him that she had no problems at all.

"Looks like our daughter's medicine is truly effective," Hanson added suddenly.

"Of course. Isn't our daughter a skilled doctor?" Vania was quite proud of the fact, but she couldn't help but wonder why he suddenly said that.

Seeing that Vania was still playing the fool, Hanson flashed a devilish grin. "But if I remember correctly, it was this leg that you've injured, no?" He pointed at the leg Vania was standing on while giving off an air of chills.

It was to the point where Vania felt it and immediately had her shivering. Uh... Now this is awkward. Swiftly, she switched her legs and flashed an awkward smile. "Hehe. Like I said, our daughter is a skilled doctor. I couldn't even feel it."

Hanson Luke wasn't the kind of man to tolerate this much nonsense. Hence, he closed in on her, forcing her to retreat until she sat down on a chair. "What did I say when we left the house today?" he asked sternly.

"T-That you'll be picking me up from work." She gulped while meeting the man's eyes. Why is my heartbeat rising again? Why are you so against me nowadays to start increasing no matter the situation?

"Not that." He lifted her chin to force her to maintain eye contact.

However, she didn't want to, so her eyes started wandering around the room instead. "Then, which one are you referring to?" As there was a slight quaver in her voice, anyone watching her in this situation would feel slightly sympathetic for her.

Although Hanson felt he was a thug who was in the midst of forcing himself onto another person, his tone remained stern as he said, "Think carefully." What he meant was that if Vania couldn't recall what he said to her, then he would replace ways to make her remember.

She knew that his methods of making her remember wouldn't be ordinary, so she immediately waved the white flag. "That I shouldn't move about." Afraid that he would explode in anger, she immediately put on her best persuasive voice and said, "Darling, please don't be angry. There won't be a next time."

Hanson ignored her pleas. "Don't even consider the possibility of a next time." Since she had disobeyed his words, he would make sure that there weren't any chances for her to go against his words the next time.

In response, she pouted and nodded pitifully. She wanted at least one more chance, but didn't dare voice her request.

Ignoring her pleading actions, he only said, "There should be a punishment." The sentence was so simple that Vania didn't know what he had planned.

"Linda Taylor," Hanson said under Vania's supervision.

At that, Linda immediately entered the room. "P-President Luke..." Looking at the situation, she knew that her boss wouldn't be able to save her, so she held back her urge to cry.

"Tell me about how you think you did in regard to the assignment I left you." Though his tone was indifferent, the choice of words he used was stern.

Immediately, Linda bowed and admitted her mistake. "It wasn't proper at all. I'll receive your punishment, President Luke."

"Darling, that's-"

Just as Vania was planning to bear the blame, Hanson interrupted her. "We'll discuss your punishment later." Then, he turned his eyes back to Linda. "We'll deduct your bonus."
