Chapter 85
After Flynn helped Quintin get dressed and wheeled him out, Caroline and Mayson were ready to go to the main residence.
for dinner.
Over at the dining room, Caroline walked in first with Mayson. She found that Carmen, Amelia, Romilly, and Savannah were all there.
Savannah was complaining to Carmen about how Caroline had bullied them, exaggerating the details.
When Savannah saw Caroline enter, Savannah reminded Carmen, “Carmen, you have to help me!”
“I got in”
Carmen waited until Caroline walked in and asked, “Caroline, let me ask you. Did you cause trouble for Sav and Melody in Golden Central today? How could you do that?”
Catherine was not at home. Carmen acted like the matriarch of the family as she chastised Caroline.
“What did I do?” Caroline asked.
“Since you’re married to the Ziegler family, you have to abide by the rules of the Ziegler family. You’re in the wrong for flirting with another man and bullying others!”
“It’s not up to you to tell me what to do, right?”
Caroline said coldly as a look of disdain flashed across her eyes.
“Do you think I want to mind your business? Now that Mrs. Ziegler isn’t home, I’m the head of this family. I’m taking you in hand because you did something wrong.
“You have to apologize to Sav and Mrs. Xydias. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being nasty!”
With the imposing manner of a mother–in–law, elder, and matriarch of the family, Carmen oppressed Caroline. Carmen thought that Caroline would meekly apologize.
However, Carmen was wrong. How could Caroline possibly apologize to women like Savannah and Melody?
“So what if I don’t apologize? You’re upholding justice here without discerning the truth. I’d advise you to shut up!”
Caroline’s words made Carmen furious.
“You! Caroline, who gave you the guts? You…”
Just when Carmen was pointing at Caroline and questioning her, a cold voice came from outside. “I gave her the guts. Do you have a problem with that?”
Savannah and Carmen looked outside and saw Flynn wheeling Quintin in.
“Quintin, you came at the right time. You shouldn’t overindulge this woman. Do you know that she has transgressed?”
Carmen kept complaining.
Quintin’s face was as dark as ink. He said unhappily, “How has Caroline transgressed? You said that she was flirting with another man. Where’s the evidence?”
At this moment, Savannah said. “Quintin, didn’t I show those photos to Flynn previously?
“That’s the evidence. Other than that young man, there’s also my brother, Jayden.
“Mr. Jakeman of Sphinx, Mr. Gray of Golden Central, and Chief Queen all have that kind of relationship with her.
“You didn’t even know she cheated on you!”
“That’s right/She’s simply violating the principles of our Ziegler family!” Amelia chimed in.
“We should teach her a lesson!” Romilly also seized the opportunity to speak.
Romilly and Amelia had been punished last time because of Caroline. Until now, they had yet to settle the score with Caroline. Naturally, they hoped that Carmen could uphold justice and teach that Caroline a lesson.
Before Quintin could speak, Carmen said impatiently, “Since Caroline has violated the principles of the Ziegler family, she shall be punished according to the family rules! Come on, mete out the punishment!”
“Wait! Let’s see who dares to punish her!”
Quintin sneered. None of the servants dared to move.
Carmen said, “Quintin, you can’t see and walk freely.
“You’ve been kept in the dark by Caroline. She has deceived you badly.
Chapter 85
Tm upholding justice for you and punishing her for violating the principles of the Ziegler family. You shouldn’t stop me!”
“Shut up! What right do you have to ask for punishment to be meted out? It’s not up to you to punish Caroline for violating the principles of the Ziegler family!”
Quintin retorted bluntly and told Carmen very firmly.
“Caroline is my wife now I won’t intervene in anything she does.
“If I don’t intervene, no one else can intervene
“If anyone causes trouble for her again, don’t blame me for being nasty!”
After saying that. Quintin turned his wheelchair and was about to leave. He did not forget to say to Caroline, “Let’s go! Forget about this meall”
Caroline wanted to leave with Mayson, but at this moment, Mayson suddenly released her hand and ran toward the dining
table.
Mayson pulled the tablecloth with all his might. In the end, the table of dishes was overturned by him.
A shattering sound was heard.
The porcelain plates fell to the ground and shattered, producing an ear–piercing sound.
Carmen and the others screamed. They were scared out of their wits.
“Leo, you brat…”
After Mayson did that, he snorted at Carmen and ran off.
Mayson snorted and thought, “Serves you right for having bullied Mommy. Now, your dinner is ruined!”
“Quintin. look at what your son did…”
Carmen called Quintin to take Mayson in hand. Unfortunately, Quintin did not listen to her at all and had already left.
Caroline held Mayson’s hand and left as well.
The women in the dining room looked at the mess on the ground and were extremely depressed. However, there was nothing they could do.
In short, Carmen had thought that she could exercise her right as the matriarch of the family when Mrs. Ziegler was not home. Dream on!
Everyone returned to Tanglevine Residence. Caroline personally cooked.
It was more comfortable to have dinner all by themselves instead of being at the mercy of anyone.
It did not take long for Caroline to prepare dinner. She asked Quintin and Mayson to come and have dinner together.
Quintin’s face was still grim, and he looked unhappy.
While Caroline was feeding Quintin, she said, “I say, Quintin, why did you suddenly change your attitude and treat me so well? Could it be that you’ve fallen for me?”
Quintin gave Caroline gifts and defended Caroline. Caroline felt that Quintin had changed a lot.
Quintin almost choked because of her words.
Quintin coughed. “Don’t think too highly of yourself. I’m doing this for the sake of the agreement!” Quintin refused to admit it. No one saw a hint of a blush on Quintin’s dark face.
Quintin still did not know that his son had spent a large sum of money to buy things for Caroline!
If he knew, he might vomit blood!
“Well, you’ll be free soon!”
Caroline said nothing else, but Quintin had butterflies in his stomach.
He actually had a strange feeling in his heart when Caroline said that he would be free soon.
What if he did not want to be free?
If she were Macy, he would not let her go that easily!
After dinner, Quintin heard footsteps going out and asked, “Caroline, where are you going?”
“I’m going out for a jog. You keep an eye on your son.”
Caroline had already changed into sportswear and was preparing to go out for a jog in the garden.
Chapter 85 Hey…
Just as Quintin was about to say something to Caroline, the sound of footsteps had already faded.
The wind at night was cooling. There was a relatively flat path in the garden of the Ziegler residence that led straight to the back garden. It was very suitable for jogging.
Caroline unknowingly jogged to the most remote solitary building-
The lights in the small building were on. Caroline passed by the small building and was about to turn back when she suddenly heard a shrill cry coming from the small building.
“Someone, help!”
The voice was not particularly loud and could only be heard clearly from nearby.
Attracted by the cry, Caroline could not help but stop in her tracks.
