He knew nothing about psychological warfare . Before long , they started to mess with his mind . The moment he accidentally died in the game , a chorus of cheerful voices erupted behind him . " Yay ! Mr. Darrell , what a great help to the enemy team ! " When he misfired and healed an opponent , they gasped in mock awe . " Wow , that's so impressive ! My one - year - old nephew couldn't even manage that ! " Most of the time , they didn't say anything at all . They just giggled . Darrell finally slammed his keyboard and shot up from his chair , pointing a trembling finger at them . " Fuck ! You're here to fucking mess with me , aren't you ?! " But they looked perfectly innocent . " What ? Mr. Darrell , we're here to cheer you on . " Keep at it ! You totally got them . " Utterly exasperated , Darrell slumped back into his chair , a faint , smoky ache burning in his chest . All of a sudden , he felt an overwhelming urge to cry . What did he do to deserve this ? Why was he being tortured like this ? Powerless and enraged , he began to vent . He slammed his keyboard , shoved his monitor off the desk , and let out a raw , wordless shriek . He even slid to the floor , crawling and writhing ... But after the storm of fury passed , he realized it changed nothing . Defeated , he dragged himself back to bed and wrapped the blanket tightly around himself with so much force it seemed he wanted to suffocate himself . The bodyguards remained preternaturally calm . They looked down at him , their gazes even mixed with a trace of gen- uine kindness and affection . " Have a good nap , Mr. Darrell , " they said softly . Hiding under the blanket , Darrell finally surrendered and cried . He didn't really want to cry . 0.0 % 09:34 Chapter 11 But his tears just kept falling against his will . For fifteen years , he had never shed a tear - not when neglected by his parents , not when bullied or beaten. But today , he cried out of anger . Once the dam of his emotions broke , there was no chaining them back . Eventually , he broke down into loud , wailing tears . 1288 ¡ Vouchers Downstairs , Norma was growing increasingly frightened and uneasy . The sounds from above were deeply unsettling . " Mrs. Beasley , did you hear that ? Are you certain those tutors aren't mistreating Mr. Darrell ? " Is he going to be alright ? " Cordelia had called several beauticians over for an in - home facial . While having her nails polished , she answered , her voice muffled by the thick layer of her facial mask . " Of course . I selected those tutors from a premier psychological education school . They're the best in the business . " They don't believe in physical discipline . All of them have top - level teaching qualifications , numerous positive re- views , and are incredibly popular among students with disciplinary issues . " None of those words made sense to Norma . Eventually , she gave up and sighed , deciding to go to the kitchen to make some snacks Darrell loved to cheer him up . Cordelia hummed cheerfully , thoroughly enjoying herself . Suddenly , Declan asked her , " Where did you find these people ? " She looked a bit embarrassed . After pausing to think for a moment, she answered , " On a psychological education website , of course . Hey , there's nothing to worry about . I've already installed cameras in Darry's room . His safety is completely guaranteed . " But it was a lie . In truth , she had no idea who those men were . It had all started yesterday . The moment she opened her phone , a chat window sprang open on her social media app . The person on the other end claimed to be a senior instructor from a psychological education institute . He stated that he had received a service request from Cordelia years ago and would arrive for a session the next day . Of course , Cordelia didn't know what had happened back then . Concerned it might be a scam , she quickly scrolled through the earlier chat history . Then it dawned on her that she had actually hired those " teachers " herself . 34.7 % 09:34 Chapter 11 And they charged a lot - 15 thousand dollars per visit ! But she couldn't tell any of this to Declan . After all , she didn't know what her past self's intentions were in hiring these people . Upstairs , after he was done crying , Darrell made to stand up and leave , only to be blocked again . By this point , his pride mattered very little . He roared in frustration , " I need to pee ! Get out of my way ! " The next second , his eyes widened in utter disbelief . One of the bodyguards actually pulled out a portable toilet from behind him expressionlessly . " Go ahead , Mr. Darrell , " Darrell burst into tears again . 1288 Vouchers At dinner time , Norma approached Cordelia nervously . " Mrs. Beasley , Mr. Darrell is so upset that he's crying . Shouldn't we do something ? " Cordelia chuckled . " I am doing something . I'm trying my best to guide him , aren't I ? " Darry is a teenager . Without proper discipline , if he goes down the wrong path , it will be Declan and me who end up crying . " 80.2 %
