You Lighten My Heart novel Chapter 5

"Let go of me! You have no right to treat me like this..." Ava struggled hard.

Karen ignored Ava. She put her hands on her hips, triumphantly, as though she was watching a good show.

Ava struggled, but within a few seconds, she had been pushed to the door of the basement.

"That's enough."

Damien, who was watching everything, finally spoke.

He slowly stood up and walked over to Ava.

"Damien, what are you doing?" Karen said anxiously. "Are you defending this woman? Didn't you see how rude she was to me just now?"

Damien was tall with long legs, and it only took him a few steps to reach Ava. He glanced coldly at the two servants, and they were so frightened that they immediately let go of Ava.

Damien grabbed Ava's hand and pulled her over to him.

He turned to look at Karen, and he appeared

cold and indifferent as usual. "Mum, she's my wife, so I'll deal with her. I'll punish her on your behalf for what she did today."

Karen's expression became a little less dark, but she still said fiercely, "You must not show mercy to her, or her attitude will become worse and worse in the future! This kind of uneducated woman needs to be disciplined!"

Damien gave a faint hum and dragged Ava away.

Because of how tall Damien was, his stride was huge. Ava was a lot shorter than him, and she was also wearing stilettos. Hence, she couldn't catch up with him at all and was staggering.

As they walked on the cobblestone path in the yard, it was no surprise at all that Ava twisted her ankle.

She stumbled and screamed in pain as she fell forward uncontrollably. "Oh, no!" She thought. As she was wearing a short skirt, she would definitely injure her knees after falling on the cobblestone path.

But Damien managed to catch her in time by wrapping his arm around her waist.

"Are you blind? How can you fall down like this?" Damien said in a low voice.

Ava was feeling gloomy and upset to begin with. She only fell because Damien was dragging her and walking so quickly. How could he call her blind?

What an unreasonable man!

"Yes, I'm blind. If I wasn't blind, why would I..."
