A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 311

Charles obviously had doubts about her. She only escaped death because of her face. Charles couldn't kill her since she looked like the love of his life.

But she was afraid that she might not be lucky the next time around because she really was not Linda.

Sitting on the floor, Lisa planned for her future.

She had learned a lot during these past few days. The Lady of the Xia clan, Lisa Xia, was no longer proud and arrogant.

She came to understand that sometimes she needed to bite the bullet when necessary. Her feelings for Charles were useless, especially now that he knew that something was wrong. So her love to him was meaningless.

She realized it the hard way... that Charles didn't love her at all. He only loved Linda.

Lisa sat on the floor for a while until she finally decided to get up and have some water. However, she was stopped at the door.

"My Lady, as per the orders of Young Master, you are not allowed to leave the room."

"Can't I go and get myself a glass of water?" Lisa's eyebrows furrowed as she glared at the servant in disbelief.

"Get out of my way, " Lisa snapped. Since Charles was not there, she had no reason to obey the servants.

She was still the Lady of the Mu clan. Charles valued his reputation too much, so there was no way he would reveal her real identity to the servants.

"My Lady, please don't put us in a tight spot. If you need anything, kindly tell us. We are more than willing to do it for you."

Charles had made it clear that 'Lady Linda' was grounded. The servants were loyal to him. They did not dare defy him. Even if Lisa threw a tantrum right now, they still wouldn't let her out.

Lisa thought for a second and gave in. She knew these servants were awfully loyal to Charles. It would be pointless for her to argue with them. Anyway, she needed to be friendly when dealing with them.

It just occurred to her that they might even help her once she was on good terms with them!

Charles had imprisoned her here in the house. She definitely couldn't get out without others' help. If she wanted to send messages or run away, she needed help from these servants.

"I'm sorry for snapping at you. I just had an argument with Young Master Mu, so I'm not in a good mood. I hope you understand."

Lisa touched her silky hair, rubbed her wet eyes, and apologised to the servant.

"My Lady, there is no need to say sorry. I understand. I will be on my way to get you some water." The servant quickly ran to the kitchen to get her some water. Lisa's words warmed his heart. Even though she was rude at first, she bothered to apologise to him!

Watching his back from a distance, Lisa smirked. These servants were too easy to be manipulated. She could lure them with some good words one by one in no time.

The servant quickly brought her some water. Lisa accepted it with gratitude. Then, she retreated into her room and pulled the curtains down.

Charles left in a hurry and forgot to confiscate her phone. Right now, her phone was silently lying inside her pocket.

Even though Charles had grounded her in the house, she could still find a way out with her phone.

The first thing that came to her mind was Robert.

She had learned a lot about Robert from Adam. Robert was crazily in love with Linda.

He nodded with a smile and said, "I will go wash my hands first."

As soon as he sat down by the table, Adam opened his mouth and said, "Brother, how come you get home so late these days? Are teachers really that busy?"

Robert laughed. He stood up and stroked his brother's head lovingly. With a big grin on his face, he explained to him, "It is hard. I teach senior students, and their schedule is usually packed from morning until evening since they need to prepare themselves well for the university exams."

"Really? How does it feel to be busy? I didn't go through the last year of high school... It would be nice to experience the busy lifestyle."

Adam's lips slightly curled up. For a moment, Robert felt sorry for his younger brother. The plain and innocent smile on his face brought pain to his heart.

Adam didn't finish high school. He dropped out in the last year when the horrible incident happened. He simply couldn't live with it at the time.

Their parents didn't force him to finish his studies. They were quite open-minded, so they allowed him to stay home and recover from the trauma. Fortunately, Adam recuperated fast, making Robert feel relieved.

"Adam, I..."

Robert was about to say something to ease the tension, but Adam shook his head and stopped him. He picked up a piece of meat, put it on his brother's plate, and said, "Don't worry about me. I am doing great now!"

"That's nice to hear. Rest assured that, as your elder brother, I will always stay by your side and keep you company. Don't bother yourself with the past anymore."

Adam nodded. Then, he changed the subject and asked, "Oh yeah, how come you don't bring up Linda anymore?"

Robert's face froze as he heard Linda's name. He lowered his head and said nothing. Linda was like a wound in his heart. Whenever her name was mentioned, the wound would reopen and hurt like hell. Now that she was with Charles, he had no one else to blame but himself for letting her go. He regretted his decision back then. He should have stayed and seized the opportunity, instead of walking away.
