Sweet May-December Marriage novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13 Too Fierce

"No," Charlotte said in a low voice.

Nelson held her hand with an unclear expression and looked at her red palm caused by that slap, "Next time, you don't have to do it yourself." He looked indifferently at the servants who bowed their heads and dared not breathe, "Don't get your hands dirty for those who are not worth it."

Charlotte was afraid but also happy because no one had ever said such words to her. She had to bear all things herself. If Jonathan was here, she would be slapped.

But Nelson said, "Don't get your hands dirty."

"Waylon," Nelson said in a calm tone, "Cut off their tongues."

The servants were so frightened that they kneeled on the ground, crying, "Mr. Clark! It's our fault! We dare not again! We dare not again!"

Charlotte was stunned. She didn't dare to look at Nelson's eyes. She said in a low voice, "I'm fine..."

Nelson didn't answer her.

But the servants seemed to have found a savior, and they all started begging Charlotte, "Mrs. Clark...Please! Stop Mr. Clark...I don't want to become dumb!"

"Mrs. Clark, I was wrong...and I didn't say anything..."

The servant who was beaten by Charlotte couldn't bear to beg her, so he just mixed with the crowd, waiting for Charlotte to help them.

Charlotte took a servant's hand away from her skirt slowly but firmly, and said softly, "You didn't treat me like this before."

Waylon looked at Charlotte in surprise. He originally thought that she would beg for the servants. After all, Charlotte looked white and tender, just like glutinous rice with strawberry sandwiches which were so soft. So she must beg for them.

"Mrs. Clark...We are ignorant and never dare again! Please... please save us..."

"I'm only twenty years old and I don't want to be a mute in the future!"

"Mrs. Clark... I am willing to accept any punishment, as long as you don't cut my tongue, I can do anything!"
