Chapter 1165
Rose's hand was shaking as she pointed at Jean angrily.
Jean, on the other hand, was still indignant about Rose's comment.
She thought her outfit today looked absolutely ravishing.
However, much to her disappointment, Rose actually thought that it was an outfit so much of an eyesore it was bad enough to embarrass the Fuller name.
Just like that, her pride and confidence were shattered in that instant.
Rose could already guess what Jean was thinking when she fell quiet.
Massaging her temples to soothe her headache, Rose muttered, "Alright, enough of this. I don't care what you think about this outfit. After you go back, you had better change out of this outfit immediately. You are not allowed to wear it ever again, let alone match your outfit by yourself. Don't bite off more than you can chew if you don't have the skills. How shameless of you! Jean, I am saying it now, but if I find out that you secretly match your own clothes and make a fool out of yourself in public, don't blame me for giving you corporal punishment the Fuller way. Do you hear me?!"
Corporal punishment?
Jean opened her eyes in disbelief.
She could only open her eyes halfway at first, and it was probably because of the fright she had upon hearing Rose's words that her eyes actually opened all the way.
However, it was precisely because they were fully opened that the fat on her face tensed up, making it look as though her facial features had shifted. Pairing her face with her outfit, she was the epitome of an eyesore.
Seeing this, Rose looked away in disgust. "Jean White, did you hear what I said?"
"I-I heard you," Jean stammered as her body trembled.
She knew that Rose was not the kind of person who liked to joke around.
Even though Jean hadn't personally experienced the corporal punishment, she had seen how Homer had been caned in order to marry her. She had also seen how Toby was caned because of Sonia.
Having the skin split open was the lightest injury they had.
She could even lose her life if she wasn't strong enough to put up with it.
With her life on the line, Jean could only listen to Rose as she wasn't brave enough to go against her.
Rose's expression only returned to normal when Jean listened to her. "That is good. Also, go back to Fuller Residence right away after you leave. You are not allowed to wander around. If you dare let anyone see your outfit, just you wait and see what happens."
"I wouldn't dare do that!" Jean immediately blurted out while shaking her head.
"Hmph. That is that, then. Now what is the reason you came here for me? You don't usually come for months. It must be something important for you to come now, huh?"
Upon hearing that, Jean let out an embarrassed giggle before she walked toward Rose and sat down in front of her. "Mother, the thing is, the Lore Family called right after I woke up this morning."
"What did you say?" Rose frowned as she came to a pause in the midst of drinking her tea. "The Logans?"
Failing to notice how Rose's expression gradually became cold, Jean swiftly answered, "Yup. Amelia Lestrange from the Lore Family."
Amelia Lestrange was Lynette's mother's full name.
Rose scoffed when she heard those words. "Did Mrs. Lore call you to have you plead for Toby's mercy on their behalf?"
Jean immediately spotted a surprised look on her face. "How did you know that, Mother?"
