Chapter 64 -64: Standing Up for Her

This time, Carolline Ruiz didn’t space out. After Bryan Hawkins left, she immediately jumped up, went to the restroom for a simple clean-up, took out clothes from the wardrobe to change into. Then, she stripped the bedsheet and quilt cover.

She cleaned the dirty spot with detergent, waited a few minutes, and started hand washing. Because she dealt with it in time, the stain faded quickly, and she put everything into the washing machine.

Finally, she grabbed her bag and went out.

Bluen Lake Wonderland’s property management fee was high, and the service was top-notch. For residents like Carolline Ruiz who didn’t drive and needed to go out, there were electric cars provided by the property management team to take them out.

Carolline Ruiz happened to catch one when she went out. She took the electric car out of the gate and hailed a taxi to the nearest supermarket, which was the same one she had visited with Bryan Hawkins yesterday.

Once inside, she went straight to the counter she needed, grabbed what she wanted, then went to the restroom in the building to get everything ready. Afterward, she leisurely strolled through the supermarket, picking up some ingredients for lunch.

After shopping, she thought she should call Bryan Hawkins to ask if he wanted to come back for lunch.

The phone rang once, and Bryan Hawkins picked up. His voice was gentle, and he volunteered, “I’ll be back in half an hour.”

“Okay, I bought groceries. I’ll wait for you,” Carolline Ruiz sweetly replied.

At that moment, she felt as if she and Bryan Hawkins were truly husband and wife. Of course, they were indeed a real couple, and at this moment, she felt the exclusive sweetness shared by couples.

This alone satisfied her.

On the other side, after Bryan Hawkins finished visiting the prisoner, he thanked the prison head under Xavier Estrada’s company and then left.

Less than an hour after Bryan Hawkins left, the prisoners had lunch. At that time, a man’s cries, similar to a pig being slaughtered, echoed through the entire prison.

Physical confrontations between prisoners were commonplace, especially since today, the injured prisoner had somehow provoked the ringleader among the inmates, a man named Fourth Master.

None of the prisoners dared to offend Fourth Master, let alone the guards. Whoever dared to provoke Fourth Master deserved this fate, so everyone coldly watched the scene unfold.

The man kept crying for help until half an hour later when the guards hurried over. They were all responsible for patrolling the area while the prisoners ate, so they didn’t immediately respond to his screams for help.

By the time the man was sent to the hospital for treatment, he was effectively castrated.

Bryan Hawkins and Carolline Ruiz had already finished lunch before receiving a call about this incident. He nodded in satisfaction; he had told Xavier Estrada to keep an eye on the man but had no intention of letting him go.

Bryan Hawkins wasn’t helpless; he just disdained to use such despicable methods unless absolutely necessary. But once someone provoked him, he wouldn’t hesitate to show his power.

Regarding George Morris, Bryan Hawkins would let him know how formidable he was. All he needed now was more evidence against George Morris.

He wasn’t a dictator; when he targeted someone, he made sure to have solid evidence to ensure that person submitted willingly.

Right now, he didn’t need evidence to deal with the man who harassed Carolline Ruiz since everyone had seen what happened. Naturally, he wouldn’t just punish the man’s “dirty” hands but would make it impossible for him to harm others for the rest of his life.

Only then could all the women in the city be safe. Bryan Hawkins would not be merciful to such a person.

After hanging up the phone, Carolline Ruiz came out of the kitchen, and Bryan Hawkins looked at her with a smile.

He saw it as standing up for her, and the feeling of satisfaction it brought him was somewhat invigorating. However, it was better not to tell her about the gruesome details.

He figured she wouldn’t want to recall that incident anyway.

“Do you want to go to the cinema this afternoon? I’ll have Xavier Estrada book tickets,” Bryan Hawkins asked Carolline Ruiz for her opinion.

When he came back earlier, he saw the sheets drying in the courtyard and thought about her unusual movements that morning, and he began to understand.

“Do you want to go?” Carolline Ruiz still considered his preferences. She usually watched movies at home and could count the number of times she’d been to a cinema with one hand.

“I’m fine either way. We have a long afternoon ahead. Shouldn’t we find something to do to pass the time?” Bryan Hawkins wasn’t particularly interested in movies, although he had accompanied Matilda Ferguson to a few before.

“Our home is a cinema. Let’s just watch here. I don’t want to go out,” Carolline Ruiz was lazy, especially during her period when she was even less inclined to leave the house.

“Alright,” Bryan Hawkins nodded in agreement, rather pleased with her use of the word “home.”

Carolline Ruiz giggled as she ran towards the window, drawing the curtains to block the sunlight. Then, she turned on the TV. Their TV was connected to the internet and as convenient as a computer. With its visual and audio effects, it was no worse than going to a cinema.

The two chose a recently released romance film to watch, and Carolline Ruiz fell asleep while watching it.

During these few days of each month, she was at her most drowsy. Normally, her sleep quality was quite good, but during this time, she could fall asleep anytime and anywhere.

Of course, work was an exception. She inherited her father Henry Ruiz’s serious attitude towards work. No matter how tired she was, she would be energetic when working.

It was like a driver who could fall asleep in the back seat but stayed focused once gripping the steering wheel, knowing it was both their own and others’ lives in their hands.

Bryan Hawkins only realized that Carolline Ruiz had fallen asleep when he heard her snoring. He picked her up, carried her to the bedroom, and laid her on the bed. As he withdrew his hand, he accidentally brushed against her plump buttocks. Because the weather was not too cold, she wore thin summer pants. When he touched that strange object, he felt rather embarrassed.

Back in middle school, they had been taught about such physiological matters. But for men, these things had always been taboo. This was his first time encountering them, and Bryan Hawkins couldn’t help feeling shy.

After tucking Carolline Ruiz in with a thin blanket, he went to the study to check on some things.
