Let me go, Mr. Hill By Shallow South Chapter 2000
Freya said with a frown, “Eliza must be tired from all the drinking yesterday. She usually says whatever comes to mind, but today she looks listless. Oh, I forgot to ask if she has had her hand bandaged too.”
“Hand?” Catherine was puzzled.
“When I told Eliza what Sarah did to Charity yesterday, Eliza was so mad that she crushed the wine glass into pieces.” Freya sighed.
A glint flashed in Catherine’s eyes. “But she doesn’t know Charity. Why was she so mad?”
“Why not? It’s normal for a humane person to be mad when they hear that.”
Catherine went silent. If it were her, would she fly into a fit of fury and crush the wine glass into pieces?
Of course, it was normal to be angry, but she would probably slap the table or smash the glass. In her opinion, people who did this would be those simmering with anger yet had no way to vent it.
“You, too, think that my argument makes sense, right?” Freya said with dissatisfaction, “Sadly, the hot coffee didn’t ruin Sarah’s face yesterday.”
“Drop it.” Catherine looked at her seriously. “ Freya, you’re now a mother. Can you please don’t act so impulsively? It would be fine if you slapped or punched Sarah when you met with her yesterday. But if you destroyed her looks in public, where they would be witnesses and physical evidence, you can g o to jail. Don’t expect that Rodney will hide the truth. After all, Sarah is his weakness.”
Freya’s mouth opened, but her throat felt like it was stuffed with cotton.
After a while, she was overwhelmed with rage and discontent.
