"Cousin?" Raymond suddenly sneered when he heard this.
He looked around the room and saw a few bottles of wine on the wine cabnot far away. Raymond walked over and took a red wine, after which he turned around and planned to hit Harold with the wine.
"Raymond!" Harold was so frightened that he quickly raised his hand to protect his head. With a sound of "bang", the wine bottle broke.
Actually, Raymond didn’t direct the wine bottle at Harold, but at the wall.

Murder is against the law!" Raymond now directed the broken wine bottle at Harold, on which the jagged edge was so sharp that it was like a knife facing Harold.
Harold's face turned pale all of a sudden. He was so terrified that his legs turned to jelly, and then he fell to the ground. "I, I didn't do anything! Don't be impulsive! | was just scaring Scarlett! Ray, Ray, I'm your cousin anyway.
Don't be impulsive. Killingwon't do you any good! You have a bright future. Don’t ruin yourself for a scum like me!" Harold was really scared, as Raymond's expression was so serious that he seemed likely to kill Harold.
Raymond grabbed Harold's collar with one hand and pressed the jagged edge against Harold's neck. "I warned you not to harm Scarlett." "Yes, yes! It's my fault! It's my fault! Ray, | know I'm wrong. I'm wrong! But | didn't do anything! Really! If you don't believe me, ask Scarlett!” Harold probably felt that it was useless to talk to Raymond, so he turned his eyes to Scarlett again. "Scarlett, | apologize to you! I'm sorry! | really didn't touch you! Please let him take the glass away! Murder is against the law!" Scarlett glanced at Harold and then took Raymond's hand. "Throw away the bottle. Don't hurt yourself." Afraid that Scarlett would get injured, Raymond threw the wine bottle away.
Seeing Raymond discard the wine bottle, Harold breathed a sigh of relief. He wanted to seize the opportunity to run out, but Scarlett and Raymond had expected that he would do this.
Therefore, when he turned around to run, she threw a cup at his feet.
Raymond kicked him again, and Harold fell to the ground.
"l, 1 won't bother you anymore." Scarlett looked down at him and sneered." Did | say that you could leave?" Then she picked up the kettle on the table, walked to Harold, and poured the water on him.
The kettle was being heated all the time, and the water inside was definitely very hot.
Scarlett didn't direct the water at Harold's face, but at his shoulders and back. As Harold wore clothes, he wouldn't be scalded seriously, but it was enough to make him uncomfortable.

He wanted to dodge the water, but Raymond prevented him by kicking.
Scarlett poured out the hot water unhurriedly, and Harold was in such a great pain that his tears cout. With the medicine working, his eyes turned a little scary red.
Scarlett put the kettle back on the table and looked down at Harold who curled up in discomfort. "I won't spare you next time.” Then she said to Raymond, "Let's leave." Raymond's expression softened when he looked at her. They two stepped out of the room.
Harold curled up on the ground, watching them leave. He gritted his teeth, but didn't dare do anything.
He really regretted having planned to harm Scarlett, as Scarlett and Raymond were so scary and ruthless.
