Chapter 806 No Difference.

"Is a hundred slaps enough? She just tried to ruin your face. Why don't I disfigure her face too to make you feel better?" Alex suggested.

He wasn't fond of Clara at all and even found her quite revolting. Moreover, she had even tried to seduce him earlier.

Maggie sized up Clara and said, "With her appearance, I don't think it would make much difference whether her face is disfigured or not. She seems quite ugly either way. Let's just go with a hundred slaps." Alex couldn't help but burst out laughing. He didn't expect Maggie to say something like that. Nevertheless, he agreed with her. Clara's appearance was indeed quite plain in Maggie's eyes. Clara, standing at the corner, grimaced as she cared the most about her appearance. Hence, she had been. holding a grudge ever since Alex called her "Miss" instead of "Gorgeous" on the plane earlier. And now, the two were mocking her looks in front of her, saying how her face would look the same, no matter if it was disfigured or not. That was something Clara couldn't tolerate.

It was as if they were mercilessly poking at her sore spot.

Still, there was nothing she could do, regardless of how resentful she felt. She was alone against two people, and she couldn't fight back or escape. She had no choice but to stay and was left at their mercy. Alex didn't slap Clara himself. Instead, he gave the hotel security guard, who had just arrived, a tip worth ten thousand and instructed the latter to slap Clara precisely a hundred times without showing any mercy.

The security guard was delighted to receive the generous tip. The scantily clad woman must have offended this mysterious patron of mine.

Therefore, he made sure the slaps were loud and clear, hoping to impress Alex and secure a similar opportunity to serve Alex again in the future.

When they returned to their room, Maggie, with tears brimming in her big eyes, clung tightly to Alex and refused to let go no matter what.

He couldn't ignore her after taking in her pitiful demeanor as he couldn't stand to see a woman cry.

"My face was almost marred. Whenever I close my eyes now, all I can see is my face being ruined. I'm so scared." Maggie lowered her eyes, and tears streamed down the corner of her eyes, looking utterly aggrieved.

She had always acted like a delicate woman in Alex's presence, completely stowing her strong-willed.

nature.

Alex understood that for a beautiful woman like Maggie, her countenance was of utmost importance. For that reason, her fear was comprehensible.

He also felt somewhat guilty. If it weren't for him, Clara and Maggie wouldn't have interacted at all, so he was actually partially responsible for what had happened.

"What should I do to make you feel better?" Alex asked warily. In fact, he was a dense guy who didn't know how to console a woman.

Maggie grasped the corner of his shirt and leaned in closer to him while keeping up a casual mien.

"I'm scared to be alone. Can you stay and keep me company? I'm afraid I'll have nightmares and wake up. to see someone slashing my face with a blade. I'm genuinely terrified." Tears welled up in her eyes again as she spoke. Seeing that, Alex agreed without a second thought...

"All right, sure. I'll accompany you. Please don't cry. I can't stand to see a woman in tears," he uttered in resignation.

With that. Maggie got her wish and stayed in Alex's presidential suite.

Initially, he intended to sleep on the couch, but she used the same tactic to persuade him to stay by her side, even insisting that they sleep in the same bed, which Alex found unacceptable.

"Alex, if it weren't for you, none of this would've happened today. Do you know how traumatized I am after experiencing this frightening incident? All I'm asking is for you to keep me company, but you're even reluctant to do that."

Her words left him with no excuse to refuse.
