Robert’s expression visibly stiffened for a moment, but he quickly regainedposure, revealing an awkward smile. “No one can rece your position! Okay, don’t be angry. Charlie is sick, don’t frighten him; you’ll be the one feeling heartbrokenter.”
That’s true.. I restrained my gaze and gently patted Charles, who had fallen asleep in my arms. Soon, he was peacefully lying in bed, covered with a nket. I watched him for a while, feeling a wave of heartache.
Robert put his arm around my shoulder, his tone seemingly yful. “Feeling tired? Go rest for a while. If you want to take care of him, you need to rest well. Right?”
Without looking at him, I got up and returned to my room. I was genuinely exhausted, and I didn’t feel like dealing with him. The images and videos I had seen earlier were still vivid in my mind, making me nauseous.
Robert followed me into the room. I coldly told him, “I’m tired. I want to take a nap. Don’t disturb me.”
After speaking, Iy down with my back to him. “Alright, rest for a while. I’ll call you when it’s time for dinner,” he said, and I heard him leaving, closing the door behind him.
Unable to find that thing, I felt an increased sense of danger, especially with Sherry seeming a bit uncontroble.
Sure enough, during the night, while pretending to be asleep, I faintly heard noises downstairs. I perked up my ears to listen, catching snippets of Robert and Sherry’s voices. However, it didn’t sound like a normal conversation; rather, it seemed like an argument.
I quietly got out of bed and pressed my ear against the door to eavesdrop. The voices were indistinct, so I cautiously opened the door slightly.
Sherry’s voice indicated displeasure, “Why do you say that about me? And you, why did you stop her medication? Are you regretting it now? Couldn’t bear it anymore?”
“Sherry, you need to know who you’re talking to!” Robert was obviously angry. “It’s not your ce to criticize and point fingers at me!”
“If you knew it woulde to this, why did you do it in the first ce? Now you’re feeling sorry for her? Then, don’t do it to her, why bother …”
Before Sherry could finish speaking, I heard a scream, followed by Robert’s furious voice, “Who the hell gave you the courage to talk to me like this? Huh? Do you think I won’t dare to touch you? Do you really think I can’t?”
I tiptoed forward to see what was happening. However, before I could get a clear view, I heard Sherry’s voice hoarsely screaming, “Ah…,” as if she couldn’t make any sound, like someone was strangling her.
“Sherry, do you really think I don’t know what you did to her? Huh? Do you think I’m unaware of you using a needle to prick her? Why do I stop her medication? She noticed the wounds on her head. You fuck up my business and you ask me why?” Robert’s voice sounded exceptionally sinister.
“Ah… Let go…” I cautiously peeked downstairs and quickly withdrew. I saw Sherry being choked by Robert on the sofa, her legs struggling, and her face turning blue.
“Do you think you can ckmail me by taking the child? Believe me, I can make youpletely disappear. ” Robert growled, “Listen carefully, the life and death of Daisy are under my control. If you dare to reveal any ws in front of her, I will make you die before her!”
I shuddered. Although I had already reached a conclusion earlier, hearing it firsthand still shocked me.
Next, I heard a thud, followed by Sherry’s rapid coughing.
Robert continued his low growl, “You better put things away. Stop all actions. Without my orders, you’d better behave and stick to your maid duties.”
He deliberately emphasized the word “maid” with a disdainful tone.N?velDrama.Org content.
Sherry coughed violently, intermittently saying, “Robert… In your eyes, am I always just a maid?”
Suddenly, Robert’s manicughter echoed from downstairs. He then retorted to Sherry, “What do you think? Hahaha. Do you believe you have any qualities surpassing Daisy? Oh… right…”
He paused for a moment, his tone bing malicious. “Your mouth, indeed, is better than hers. I really like that!”
