Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 357 As long as you write the decree, Tannis can avoid suffering…
Tannis clenched his teeth tightly, stubbornly refusing to let out a single gasp.
Then came more whips, one after another, relentlessly lashing Tannis.
Tannis continued to grit his teeth, refusing to make any sound.
Because only then would Lisa have the opportunity to exploit, and Una’s adoptive parents would not have been brutally murdered.
It was also his negligence that led to the series of events Una experienced afterward.
If he had spoken fewer words back then, perhaps Una’s adoptive parents wouldn’t have died. If he hadn’t lost Una while fleeing, she might still be alive...
Soon, Tannis was beaten until his skin was torn and his flesh gaped open.
Lisa chuckled coldly, "How is it? Seeing your good brother treated like this, what do you feel?"
Muir forced himself not to look.
He couldn’t afford to soften, couldn’t give Lisa what she wanted.
This woman had deceived him for so many years, and was the chief culprit behind Amanda’s suffering; how could he acquiesce to her wishes and hand over the entire Whitehill to such a venomous woman!
He never expected that Lisa had harbored rebellious intentions all along!
However, Lisa still forced him to look.
She approached Muir, tightly gripping his head, making him face Tannis’s direction, "Muir, look, see how miserable Tannis is! As long as you make Ellie’s succession as Crown Prince, not only will he no longer endure such whipping, but you can all leave this filthy prison and return to your former glamorous life..."
Upon hearing Lisa’s words, Tannis suddenly shouted, "Muir, don’t listen to this woman! She’s a snake, if it weren’t for her, you and Amanda wouldn’t have ended up like this! Don’t worry about me, I’m fine!"
He felt he had wronged Una, even more so Muir.
Even if Una were to beat him to death today, he wouldn’t let her use him to threaten Muir.
Lisa’s eyes turned vicious as she gazed at the torturer handling Tannis, "What? Didn’t have your meal today? You don’t even know how to punish disobedient prisoners!"
"Forgive me, Queen!" The person hurriedly admitted fault, guaranteeing thereafter, "Rest assured, I’ll make sure he won’t be able to speak another word!"
With that, the whips struck harder.
Soon, Tannis was beaten unconscious.
Lisa looked at Muir, coldly asking, "So? Have you thought it through? Are you considering changing your mind?"
Muir’s eyes glinted with chill as he faced Lisa, decisively stating, "Lisa, if you think I’ll issue the proclamation, you’re dreaming!"
"Very well!" Lisa replied viciously and coldly, "Wake him up and continue whipping!"
As she said this, a smile spread across her face as she spoke gently to Muir, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, I have all the time to waste with you. There’s no rush for a day or two, after all, Whitehill is already in my hands. But the longer you refuse to issue the proclamation, the more I’ll change up the ’proper’ ways to entertain Tannis until you do."
After saying this, she continued to analyze the current situation, "Actually, whether you issue the proclamation or not, it makes no difference to me; I can still place Ellie on the throne. Now all those standing in court are my people. I just don’t want to do this, I don’t want Ellie’s position to be questioned or to give her an upright and unshakable reason to ascend."
Seeing Tannis suffering and listening to Lisa’s analysis of the situation, Muir ultimately conceded to her demands and issued a decree, appointing Ellie as the Crown Prince...
As the plane touched down in Europe, Adrian awoke from sleep.
Seeing Melody snuggled in his arms, eyes closed without knowing when she fell asleep, now sleeping sweetly, his lips inadvertently curved into an extremely gentle smile.
How wonderful it is to see her first thing upon waking!
He gently rose, carefully carrying her off the plane directly to Tannis’s lab.
However, the door to Tannis’s lab was tightly closed, and no one was there.
Adrian looked at Locke, "Go find where Tannis has gone and bring him back to the Davies castle."
"Yes!" Locke responded and immediately set off to search for Tannis.
Adrian cradled the still-sleeping Melody back to the Davies castle.
After some unknown amount of time, Melody awoke in the master bedroom of the Davies family castle.
She opened her eyes, and her vision was still filled with darkness.
But she wasn’t frightened, because she knew he was right by her side.
Indeed, in the next second after she opened her eyes, a deep, magnetic male voice spoke tenderly beside her, "Awake?"
As he said this, he naturally pulled her into his embrace.
Melody leaned against his warm, broad chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, softly replied, "Mm, I’m awake."
Adrian chuckled fondly, idly running his fingers through Melody’s fringe, "Tannis is not in Europe right now, I’ve already asked Locke to find him. Don’t worry, once we find him, your eyes can definitely be cured."
"Mm." Melody nodded, "I trust you."
Adrian smiled and suddenly said, "Melody, the two little ones miss you. Give them a call."
Ever since he found Melody, he had been solely focused on concerns about her eyes. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Now that he had a moment of leisure, he suddenly remembered the two little ones still in River City.
Melody had also wanted to do this for a long time.
But back in the fishing village, neither she nor Kaleb had any communication tools to contact the outside world.
After leaving the village, Kaleb immediately took her to Dr. Stewart’s place.
Then Adrian found her and brought her to Europe.
Hearing his words, she nodded immediately and asked with concern in her voice, "The little ones must have been so scared and worried during this time, right?"
"Mm." Adrian replied, not mentioning Daniel’s injury, "Their mommy was missing, it’s normal for them to be scared and worried."
"Then hurry and call them," Melody urged.
"Alright, let’s call them now." Adrian smiled indulgently, picking up the phone, he dialed Benjamin Parker’s number.
The dialing tone sounded, and Melody suddenly thought of something, quickly saying, "Adrian, don’t tell the little ones about my situation, at least for now."
She couldn’t let them know about her current condition and worry along with her.
If her eyes healed, she would return to them happily.
If not, she would wait until that time to tell them when she saw them.
Adrian nodded, "I understand."
