The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 499

Attlee, Olga, and Yolanda felt like they were slapped right across the faces.

Who would believe that Louisa had the guts to say that touching Yolanda was dirty and tiresome.

Was Yolanda's face that dirty?

When the entire Collins family was ganging up on them and only Hans hadn't taken a side yet, Attlee, clinging onto the last bit of hope, tentatively called out, "Hans."

"Aren't you going to do something?" Hans looked at him coldly, shattering his last bit of hope. "You want someone else to do your dirty work?"

Everyone hoped that the Murphy family could get their act together and teach their daughter some manners.

Finally, Attlee had no choice but to step forward, gritting his teeth, closing his eyes, and slapping Yolanda hard across the face.

Yolanda had already taken dozens of slaps from Arabella; she was practically deaf in one ear. Her pained expression didn't look like an act.

But a bunch of snooty ladies continued to smirk and sneer.

"That slap was so light, anyone would think you were tickling your daughter."

"You think one slap is gonna make everything alright? Dream on!"

"Insulting Mrs. Collins is an insult to all of us. If you can't do the dirty work, we'll do it for you!"

"If you don't make this girl's face swell today, don't even think about leaving this place!"

Yolanda watched as her parents were bullied, and her tears started to flow uncontrollably. She cried out, "Stop tormenting my parents! It's my fault; I'll take the punishment. The next slap, I'll do it myself!"

As she cried, she began to slap herself. She looked so pitiful, as if she were the most wronged person in the world.

But no one was moved by her performance, especially the high-class ladies who wore disgusted expressions.
