Second Marriage novel Chapter 35

"If you are self-aware, you should get out of the Moore family now. You shall know that the Wilson family can never be compared with the Moore family, so how can you stay in the Moore family? " Seeing that Charlotte did not reply, the servant thought that Charlotte was scared, so she scolded her arrogantly.

Charlotte looked down at her clothes which were wet because of the milk. The milk was dropping from her clothes to the floor, and there were fragments of the cup, egg and milk on the floor.

She looked like a drowned mouse.

"What are you doing?"

Someone asked them in puzzlement.

The maidservant who was arrogant just now became shocked and stepped back when she heard the voice.

Manfred walked towards them with a briefcase in his hand. When he saw that Charlotte sat on the chair and looked down at her clothes which were dirty with milk, he was a bit angry.

"What’s going on, Charlotte?"

The maidservant felt a little panicked, and dared not to say anything.

Why did Mr. Manfred come back home so early? He usually came back home at 7 o’clock.

What should she do?

"Mr. Manfred, Missus did not hold the cup of milk firmly, so the milk was poured out into her clothes." The maidservant was afraid that Mr. Manfred would blame her, so she explained it to him in a hurry.

However, Manfred did not reply to her, he just put down his briefcase quickly and then walked towards Charlotte.

Charlotte did not move and just sat on the chair.

"Stand up."

He intended to help her stand up with his hand. But Charlotte bit her lower lip and pushed him away slightly, "Manfred, I am fine."

Manfred noticed that her clothes on her chest were wet, and she was not willing to stand up, probably because of it. Manfred frowned and took off his suit and put it on her without thinking too much.

"Please go change your clothes."

She felt warm with the suit on her, and she felt a little surprised and looked up at Manfred.

Manfred looked at her gently with care, which made her feel warm and touched. And then she stood up slowly under his help.

"Thank you."

"You are welcome. Go change your clothes first."

"Mr. Manfred, it’s true that she did it careless by herself. It’s none of my business. " The maidservant was trying to explain and cover up what she did just now.

However, Manfred turned back suddenly and looked at her with disappointment, "I saw you bully her last time. And you did it again. I told you before, right? If you don’t want to stay in the Moore family, you can leave now."

The maidservant was shocked after hearing that, "Mr. Manfred, it’s really none of my business. I did not hurt her."

"So you want to tell me that she poured milk on herself?"

The maidservant nodded.

Manfred really felt disappointed, "You are really incorrigible. Go pack your luggage now, and then let the steward settle the salary to you, then you can leave."

"No, Mr. Manfred. " The maidservant walked forward and held his hand quickly, "Please don’t ask me to leave. I admit that I did it. But Mr. Kennedy doesn’t like her at all. So why can she stay in the Moore family?"

Charlotte never thought of blaming the maidservant, but she did not expect that she would admit what she did.

Charlotte knew that she should keep a low profile in the Moore family, so she had to endure everything by herself.

She thought that as long as she was cautious about her own behavior, she could be good here. However, there was something unexpected sometimes.

"You have no right to decide whether she can stay in the Moore family." Manfred was serious, "You are just a servant here. How could you do that? I think you are usually too negligent of discipline, so you think you can bully others casually."

Manfred was always a gentleman, and it was the first time he looked so severe. The maidservant was scared. She looked at Manfred with fear, "Mr. Manfred, she's just..."

"Get out." Manfred suddenly rubbed his eyebrows and said to her with a complex expression.

The maidservant glared at Charlotte and then left.

After the maidservant left, Manfred turned back and looked at Charlotte, "I am sorry to let you suffer from this in the Moore family. They did not behave like that before. This time...... I am so sorry. I will give you an account for this matter."
