A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 31

"Stop it, " said Charles with a cold and deep but magnetic voice.

Violet Xing knew that her son was awake. But she didn't stop because she intended to embarrass Linda in front of Amy Qi.

Amy Qi had always been her top candidate of daughter-in-law. And such a choice could also boost the Mu clan's overseas business in the future.

"Bun, stop her." Noticing Violet Xing's indifference, Charles Mu softly said again.

Bun was awaiting by the door. It was Charles Mu's order to stay at Linda's elbow for her safety and never left her side without his order.

Were it not for that she was only a servant, Bun would have already rushed into the room to stop Her Ladyship from slapping Linda.

Now that she had Charles Mu's order, Bun immediately dashed into the room and stood in front of Linda.

"Bonny Lu, get out of my way."

"Your Ladyship, Young Master want you to stop." Bun didn't back off. She was neither humble nor arrogant, just stood firmly to protect Linda Xia.

Violet Xing's hand up in the air was shaky out of fury, "How dare you. Had the Mu clan not taken you in, you would have starved on the street. And this is how you pay me back?"

Bun's bright eyes went a little gloomy and answered, "His Lordship had given me to Young Master. So I only take orders from Charles Mu. Please forgive me, Your Ladyship."

"Great...This is great!" Violet Xing was furious over the fact that a mere servant should dare contradict her words.

Violet Xing then slapped Bun right on her face, Leaving a clear red mark on Bun's left face. Although her head was in a whirl, Bun still stood in front of Linda Xia.

It's her job to stick to Young Master's orders.

One slap seemed not enough, so Violet Xing raised her hand again with the intention to give Bun another slap on her right face.

Linda couldn't stand it any longer. As the saying goes, look to the owner before you hit a dog. Bun was her maid who took care of her daily life since her arrival, and so she simply couldn't stand aside while other people bullied Bun like that.

Linda pulled Bun back right when Violet was about to strike again, "Lady Mu, whatever it is, you could take it out on me."

Violet Xing gave a cold snort. Her left hand was still shaking in pain because she had slapped Bun way too hard.

"Mother, that's enough, "

Calmly said Charles Mu. He just sat up straight on the bed, looking a bit pale.

Violet Xing turned around to look at her son and then laid down her hand.

It was hard to tell Charles Mu's expressions from his lowering eyes and angular face.

"Charles, you're awake? How do you feel? Is everything OK with you?"

Hearing Charles Mu's voice, Amy Qi hurried back to him and reached out her hand, trying to feel his forehead.

Charles Mu frowned and made a slight move sideways to avoid her hand.

Amy Qi's hand suspended awkwardly in midair. However, she was not angry with him.

She had gotten used to Charles Mu's attitude toward her. In fact, Charles Mu had always turned a cold shoulder to her.

She had a crush on Charles Mu when they first met on her mother's birthday party. She was only nine years old back then. And her feelings had never changed through all these years.

In order to change Charles Mu's view about her, Amy Qi even made her father do everything he could just to pave her way to Cranfield School of Management, the top educational institution in Britain.

All she ever wanted was to be able to help Charles Mu's business as a professional when she finished her study, and preferably brought their relationship forward further down the line.
