Cyril was overwhelmed with feelings of anger and guilt, yet he couldn't pinpoint the reason.
Gazing from the balcony, he couldn't take it anymore.
"Stop!" Cyril shouted from his balcony.
Everyone raised their faces up to see Cyril staring down at them, but Maryann couldn't raise her face up because she was too weak.
"Your Excellency, it is only twelve, not nearly fifty," David stated.
"Dismiss everyone and loosen her now", Cyril thundered as he looked down at Maryann, and she was bleeding from her mouth and her back was nothing to talk about.
It was seriously bleeding and severe.
"Why did he release her?" Cass asked, annoyed, as she exited with Amy and Jo.
Meanwhile, the staffs and other workers from the cottage also departed, leaving only Sarah, Lisa, and James behind.
Cyril observed from above as everyone departed, and the guards released Maryann without restraint.
James hurried to catch up with Maryann from underneath the pole, but she fell on top of him instead.
He lay underneath Maryann while Maryann lay on top of him unconsciously.
Cyril became angry and slapped himself to snap back to reality, yet he couldn't tear himself away from the scene, feeling a sharp pang of jealousy in his chest.
Sarah and Lisa ran and lifted Maryann from James.
James sat up and found Maryann on his lap, as Sarah and Lisa tried to lift her.
Instead, James held her head and the blood was still oozing from her mouth.
"Mary! Mary! Mary! Wake up!" James screamed as he shook her, but Maryann didn't open her eyes or move.
"Please give me water," James murmured in anticipation, and Lisa hurried to fetch some water.
Sarah began to whimper.
James looked at Maryann's clothes as she lay on his leg, the back of her top was torn according to the lashes of the whip, the hook of her brassiere showed from the back of her dress that was torn almost unhooking when James hooked it back together as she lay unconscious.
Cyril's heart ached as he stood on the balcony, watching James tend to Maryann.
He shook his head, dismissing the notion that he was starting to care about her fate.
He shouldn't care after all, it could damage his reputation, and he didn't even like her.
She was a thief, ungrateful for the life he had saved, and had insulted him outright.
So why should he care? With that, he turned and went inside, giving it no further thought.
Lisa handed the water to James, who then tried to give it to Maryann.
However, the water spilled from the corner of her mouth since she was unconscious and unable to drink.
As James held Maryann's mouth open again, he implored Lisa to pour the water in.
Just then, they noticed Cyril emerging from the White House, accompanied by Bobby and six bodyguards.
Cyril gazed at Maryann in her distressing condition, feeling an impulse to carry her and run to the sickbay in seconds.
