Chapter 141: Not Afraid
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Robert kneeled in the hall for more than ten minutes and cursed for more than ten minutes. In the end, it was Joline who felt that he was too embarrassing and asked someone to carry him away.
When Robert saw Joline, he immediately knelt on the ground and cried. “Auntie, that woman Caroline is too much. I only had a small argument with her, and she actually dared to lay her hands on me in public and cripple my legs! How do you expect me to live the rest of my life? Do you dare to let such a vicious woman like her stay by Edwin’s side?”
“You said that Caroline crippled your legs?” Joline didn’t believe that Caroline would be so cruel to Robert just because he said some unpleasant things.
Robert, however, insisted, “I don’t know what she did to my legs. I can’t even feel them, let alone stand up. Doesn’t that mean my legs are crippled?”
After hearing how serious he was, Joline couldn’t turn a blind eye to him since he was her nephew, so she ordered, ‘Go and get the doctor. Also, get Edwin and Caroline.”
Caroline was about to start putting on her makeup, but after hearing Butler Harriman’s words, she took out a sharp eyebrow cutter from her makeup box and followed Harriman out. She met Edwin, who was looking for her.
Edwin had already found out about the conflict between her and Robert from the reports of his subordinates. Even though he didn’t know what Caroline had done to Robert, he would still be able to protect her even if she really crippled Robert’s legs.
Edwin held her hand and whispered in her ear, “Don’t be afraid, leave it to me.”
Caroline also lowered her voice and replied, “I’m not afraid, so you don’t have to worry. ”
The two of them smiled at each other and walked to Joline’s guest room.
The moment Robert saw Caroline, his eyes were filled with killing intent.
Half an hour ago, he was still drooling over Caroline’s beauty. After she gave him a huge blow and humiliation, Robert only wanted to take her down and use all kinds of methods he could think of to torture her. He wanted to make her wish she was dead.
Robert’s murderous intent was so strong that not only did Caroline feel it, but everyone else in the room felt it too.
Edwin’s face darkened as he looked at Robert as if he was a dead body. Joline’s eyes were also filled with obvious displeasure. The doctor had already checked Robert’s legs, but he didn’t find any wounds or scars.
As for why Robert’s legs couldn’t move without any injuries, the doctor said he didn’t know.
When Joline found out about the result, her first reaction was that Robert wanted to use this opportunity to frame Caroline and ruin their engagement.
However, Robert refused to admit it. He insisted that he really couldn’t move his legs and that Caroline really crippled them.
Joline had a headache from his antics, so she had to wait for Caroline to come and explain it to her face-to-face. However, she didn’t expect that Robert would dare to release such a strong killing intent toward Caroline in front of them.
If they weren’t here, would Robert directly deal with Caroline? Realizing this, Joline’s dissatisfaction with Robert deepened.
Today was supposed to be a good day, but in the end, this had to happen before it happened. It was too disappointing. “Tell me, what’s going on today?”
“You’ve already repeated yourself. I don’t want to hear you repeat it again,” Joline rebuked. She gestured for Caroline to speak.
Caroline had a clear conscience, so she briefly explained the conflict between the two of them. Of course, she omitted the part where she secretly attacked Robert. She only said that she couldn’t stand him talking to Edwin like that, so she couldn’t help but kick his knee twice.
Caroline emphasized that she did not kick him very hard, but for some reason, Robert knelt down and said that she had crippled his legs.
She felt that Robert was deliberately extorting her, so she couldn’t be bothered with him and left.
When she heard Robert insult him with the fact that Edwin had been ill for a long time, Joline looked at him with a sharp gaze.. “Did you really say that?”
