Chapter 65
Evelyn did not halt the conversation due to his anger but continued, I was thinking, if Dahlia’s poolside was also under surveillance, would the truth of that day be as clear as today’s truth.”
“Evelyn!” Charles‘ emotions fluctuated, and the pressure he applied on her back noticeably increased
The brief warmth shared between them vanished in an instant
“Ouch!” Evelyn winced in pain, unable to suppress a muffled groan .
Charles eased his grip, but his annoyance was evident. He stood up, looking down at Evelyn on the sofa, his voice cold. “Evelyn, you didn’t push Sandy today, but it doesn’t mean Charlie didn’t push Sandy that day.
After saying this, Charles turned and left
Evelyn slowly rose from the sofa and put on her clothes with a cold look in her eyes. She had thought that after the same scenario today. Charles might have been swayed even if he didn’t believe her befor
She had underestimated Dahlia and Sandy’s place in Charles‘ heart.
At Carmen’s house, Sena had just been treated for her injunes. Tears filled her eyes as she looked at her bruised knees and the tom skin on her legs. She sat on the sofa with hatred in her eyes, growing angrer by the minute. “That bitch Evelyn! I will never let her off.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a servant from Charles‘ household came in. “Ms. Sena, Mr. Charles has ordered you to the family chapel for disopline
Sena’s pupils shrank, her body resisting. Tm not going.”
Her legs were whipped, and it hurt, and now she was to undergo family discipline. She couldn’t bear it.
“Ms. Sena, my apologies”
The two were following Charles‘ orders, so they ignored Sena’s resistance and dragged her out of the house and into the chapel
By the time Carmen arrived. Sena had already been disciplined. She had been hit for ten times by the ruler and was lying on the ground, weeping with tears and snot all over her face
Seeing Carmen, Sena cried out in pain, her cries heart–wrenching X
Carmen was extremely distressed. She had someone take Sena back to her house to be taken care of, and then she went to the main house with a cold face, confronting Charles sitting on the sofa. “Charles, what is the meaning of this? Where did Sena go wrong to deserve family discipline?
“She’s just a girl and is always afraid of pain. How could she endure ten lashes?”
“Aunt Carmen, Evelyn is the same age as her Charles voice was cold
Carmen immediately got it. Charles was venting for Evelyn
Evelyn was only supposed to kneel in the chapel as a punishment, but Sena, eager to deal with Evelyn, had invoked family discipline on her
Carmen clenched her fists. “Isn’t Dahlia the one you love?!
He wasn’t Supposed to care about Evelyn, so what was this all about??
“Aunt Carmen, you should consider the repercussions of your actions, Charles tone was calm, but his eyes were chilling.
Evelyn stood on the second floor. The slight turbulence in her eyes calmed once again when she heard Charles’s speech.
She walked down the stairs Carmen glared at her fiercely and left.
Evelyn ignored Carmen and headed straight to the kitchen. She planned to cook some of her grandmother’s favorite dishes!
As she passed by Charles, she didn’t look at him.
Charles‘ gaze followed her, and he called out, “Evelyn
Evelyn didn’t want to engage with Charles at the moment and continued walking
Charles spoke from behind her, “Where is Charlie? I’ll pick her up to join grandmother for dinner
