Chapter 82
“I… I…” Carrie’s eyes were full of tears as she choked up.
“You just want to go against us. We don’t like Anna, so you want to help her. Is that so you can show that you’re different and righteous?!”
Bethany’s delicate face was contorted at the moment. “Stop trying so hard! Ryan can’t possibly like a fool like you!”
“Ms. Bethany! What are you doing?” Wilma rushed in and hugged Carrie, who was crying loudly.
The other servants in Tideview Manor had long been accustomed to this kind of scene, and no one dared to stop Bethany.
Wilma was the only one who dared to stand up for Carrie because she had been working for Justin for the longest time and could not stand the way Bethany bullied Carrie.
“Wilma, get out! It’s none of your business!” Bethany was also angry with Wilma.
“I think you should leave!”
While Wilma comforted the trembling Carrie, she shot a warning look at Bethany and said, “If you walk out of this door now, I’ll pretend that I didn’t see a thing. Otherwise, I will tell Young Master Justin exactly how you bullied Ms. Carrie when he comes back!”
Bethany trembled and gritted her teeth unwillingly.
If Justin knew what Bethany was like at home, he would definitely tell his best friend, Ryan. If Justin interfered, it would be more difficult for Bethany to pursue Ryan.
Considering this, Bethany had to stop.
However, she was still upset. Before leaving, she snatched the bear from Carrie’s arms and threw it out the window.
“Ah! My teddy!”
“This ragdoll is such an eyesore!”
Bethany snorted coldly, flipped her wavy hair, and left the room as if nothing had happened.
Carrie did not even bother to put on her shoes before running out of the villa barefoot.
At that time, Justin returned to Tideview Manor and was startled to see Carrie’s anxious face.
“Carrie, what happened?” Justin stepped forward to stop her and frowned in worry.
Although Justin hated Shannon and Bethany, he still pitied Carrie.
Justin was also impressed that this weak little girl stood up to speak for Anna that day.
“My teddy… My teddy is gone…” Carrie was so anxious that tears and snot streamed down her face.
“Don’t worry. I’ll help you find it.”
Justin led Carrie to the backyard.
Finally, they spotted a teddy bear lying in a muddy flower bed.
Justin, who always liked to keep his leather shoes spotless, could not care less about the mud and stepped into the flower bed to retrieve the bear.
The teddy bear was so dirty that it was unrecognizable, but Carrie still held it like a treasure. She hugged it tightly and sobbed as tears fell from her face.
Justin had never been a soft-hearted person, but he could not help but feel sorry for Carrie when he
saw her like this.
“It’s so dirty. Why don’t you throw it away? I’ll buy a new one for you tomorrow.”
“No… I want this one… Annie gave it to me… It’s my favorite toy!”
Justin’s chest trembled. He did not expect Carrie to like Anna so much.
Carrie thought of Anna’s kindness to her in the past. Without him, every day in this huge manor was arduous. Her father neglected her, her mother ignored her, and her sister bullied her.
“Justin!”
The little girl threw herself into Justin’s arms and burst into tears. “Can you ask Annie to come back? I miss her so much… Can you stay together?”
Justin’s thin lips trembled. His throat felt bitter.
