A Vengeful Girl

Chapter 472 Punishment

"How do you know that Charles and Amy were friends from childhood and had grown up together? Did

you watch them growing up? Hmm? And how could you know that Charles's mother had treated Amy

as her daughter-in-law? Do you even know Amy? Has she told you about this?"

"Everyone in SH City knows about it."

"It seems that people have been wrongly informed, spreading false rumours. They shouldn't believe

those absurd gossips."

In fact, Linda knew the truth. There were a lot of fake news that had been going around, such as

matters regarding Amy and Charles. They had met each other when they were young, but Linda didn't

believe that they grew up together as close friends, let alone lovers.

Charles had once told her that the Mu clan had friendly relations with the Qi clan, so the two clans'

members met frequently. However, Charles had always ignored Amy.

If Charles and Amy had really formed a deep friendship since they were children, they would have had

a close relationship with each other. But Linda knew that Amy had a one-sided love with Charles, and

he had disliked Amy. It was quite clear that they were not even close to each other; there were not

even any childhood friendship between them.

Linda didn't believe what Sophia had told her, and she also didn't need to explain the truth to Sophia.

She was the Lady of the Xia clan and the Nalan clan. She and Charles loved each other genuinely.

They got married because they had both mutually consented to do it.

Their marriage had been accepted by the Xia clan and the Mu clan, And they had gotten married with

all their parents' blessings.

Although Linda and Charles signed a marriage agreement at the beginning, they fell in love with each

other in the end. Linda thought that she was very lucky to have gotten together with Charles. Since she

loved and cherished Charles very much, she hoped that others would not meddle in or destroy their

marriage.

It would be great if Linda would be able to persuade Sophia to drop her obsession with Charles, but if

Sophia insisted on chasing him, Linda would be ready to compete with her. Linda was as beautiful as

Sophia. Also, in other aspects, Linda proved far more than a match for Charles than Sophia was.

"Do you want to talk with me just to persuade me to give up on Charles?"

Asked Sophia while smirking at Linda.

"Yes. That's my purpose. You should not waste your time on such a vain attempt. You are young and

attractive, so you should look for the right man for yourself."

Somehow, Sophia suddenly laughed. After she smoothened her hair while looking at Linda, she walked

up to Linda. With two hands pressing against the sofa near Linda, Sophia glanced at Linda again and

said, "What if I say I won't give up? Will you bite me?"

Linda stretched her arms and pushed Sophia away.

"No, I won't. I don't eat shit."

After she finished speaking, Linda left the room with Anna. Since Sophia was so stubborn, Linda knew

it would be useless to say anything else to her.

Linda would never let Sophia take advantage of her or get any sort of chance to do something bad to

her.

Sophia was left stunned, standing still. Linda had just said that she was like shit. Before she realized

what Linda had meant, Linda was gone. Sophia got very angry at the thought of this, so she chased

her.

"Hey! Stop! What did you say just now?"

"Didn't you understand my words? Do you want me to repeat it?"

"Just wait and see! Don't be too proud of what you have now. Remember that he who laughs last,

laughs best. I will surely take Charles away from you, someday. By then, I will let you cry in front of me

and beg me for mercy."

Everyone could say such provocative nonsense, and Linda looked down upon those who said things

like those.

When they got out of the room and reached the corridor, Linda saw Paul waiting for them in front of the

elevator. "My Lady, you are here. Young Master told me to wait for you and take you to your room."

"We won't go back home today?"

"Young Master said that we will not go back today. It is late now, so we can only drive back, but it will

take us a long time to do so. You would get really tired. Young Master is worried that you won't be able

to handle it."

"But we have a helicopter. We can take that to go home. When I took the helicopter to come here

earlier, I really liked how exciting that was."

Although Linda felt sick halfway through the ride.

"I think you shouldn't take the helicopter since you're pregnant now, My Lady. It is dangerous, " said

Paul.

"All right. I will stay here tonight. It's okay with me." Charles had made the right decision. He had to be

more considerate and cautious when caring for Linda who was eight months pregnant.

After she had entered the room, Linda saw Charles sitting on the sofa and intently looking at his laptop

which was on his lap. She guessed that he might be busy dealing with his company's affairs.

Charles was wearing pajamas now, so he must have already taken a shower. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"You're back."

Charles raised his head and took a quick look at Linda the moment he had heard the door open. After

that, he lowered his head again and got absorbed in his work.

"Yes, I'm back."

"It's getting late now. You should take a shower and go to bed."

Linda indeed felt tired, so she nodded and went to fetch her clothes before taking a shower. Then, she

stopped midway and asked, "Oh right. Aren't you interested in the conversation between Sophia and

me?"

Without looking up, Charles replied, "I'm not curious about it. She has nothing to do with me. She is

merely a singer from my entertainment company."

"Apparently, she likes you very much."

"I know. But what can we do about it?"

"She said that it doesn't matter if she can't be together with you. She only wants to be your woman...

You can..."

Upon hearing her, Charles suddenly looked up at Linda.

'Is he mad at me?' thought Linda. She was just joking. She trusted him, of course.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to..."

Charles closed his laptop, put it aside, and stood up from the sofa. He then walked slowly toward

Linda.

He put his arms around Linda's waist after he got near her.

"You didn't mean to? You didn't mean to do what?"

Charles said in a low voice, burying his head in her neck.

His soft breath spread around Linda's neck, making Linda feel sexually aroused.

"Tell me, what didn't you mean to do?" asked Charles gently.

"I shouldn't have joked about you and Sophia. I understand what had happened, and I trust you with all

of my heart. I believe that you don't and will never have any relationship with her."

Charles nodded with satisfaction and said, "I'm glad that you know that. So... do you think that I should

punish you for joking around?"

"How do you want to punish me?"
