Chapter 65
Edith walked over in fear and stood in front of him, saying cautiously, “Uncle Carlos, do you want to talk to me?”
“Did you see two women walking toward me just now?”
“Yes… I saw it. What’s wrong?” If Edith hadn’t seen it, how could she have walked away? She did it for the sake of Carlos happiness. She was such a thoughtful person and almost got herself into trouble!
Hearing her firm tone, Carlos raised his thick eyebrows in anger, looking quite intimidating.
Edith looked at him. her heart beating fast and legs shaking uncontrollably.
“Stretch out your hand and take your punishment.”
Edith was shocked to hear this and asked with her eyes wide open, “Uncle, I’m not a child. It’s inappropriate for you to do
this, isn’t it?”
Carlos was known as the mysterious and formidable leader of the Lawson family, but his way of punishment was so childish.
Moreover… Edith thought she didn’t do anything wrong and couldn’t understand why she should be punished.
Just as she was about to explain herself, Carlos narrowed his deep eyes which were filled with fierceness. He seemed to be Satan, and no one dared to disobey his order.
Edith was reluctant to do as he said, but she didn’t dare to defy her uncle and stretched out her hand obediently.
She thought Carlos was just joking, but he hit her hand so hard that she frowned in pain.
Finally, Edith couldn’t stand it and withdrew her hand subconsciously. Her eyes were red because of shedding tears just now, and now she failed to hold back her tears again in great pain.
She quickly put her hand behind her back, looked at Carlos nervously, and stammered, “Enough… It hurts so much. I’m just thinking of you, Uncle. If there’s no woman around you, others will be very likely … misunderstand.”
Carlos‘ face grew sullen even more as he heard the words.
He didn’t know what Edith meant by saying that.”
He then asked coldly. “Tell me why they’ll misunderstand.”
“Well… nothing. It’s just that it might be inappropriate for you to punish me like this, Uncle. I’ve graduated as an adult!” Edith hurriedly said.
A trace of smile flashed across Carlos‘ eyes as he heard that.
He knew that Edith was 20 years old. But according to his investigation, she had just graduated from college and hadn’t been aware of how cruel the society was. She was still a girl in bloom, young and innocent.
Actually, this satisfied Carlos the most.
No matter how much the Meyer family wanted, it could still be considered a good deal if they gave him an innocent wife.
At least he could follow his heart with no worries when facing her.
Because she wasn’t calculating and treated him with sincerity.
Along the way, Carlos had seen too many dark aspects of human nature, so he considered Edith’s purity rare and precious. He wanted to protect her so that she could remain a pure person forever.

“All the rules I’ve told you are the rules of the Lawson family. You have to abide by them during your stay in the Lawson’s place. Do you understand?” Carlos said coldly in a firm voice.
Edith swallowed and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. “What a bossy person!
Even if you aren’t gay, no woman could stand you.
You deserve to be single forever!”
