Dear Soldier, Put Your Gun Down novel Chapter 15

Christopher reluctantly taught his daughter a lesson as Matt watched on while chatting lightly with Winona, held in his arms.

He eyed Winona up and down, his eyes shining with appreciation. Bending down, he whispered into her ear, “You’re really beautiful. Makes me want to eat you up right here and now.”

Her cheeks turned red in embarrassment. The audacity of this guy, to be so shameless yet so upstanding in helping her.

She turned on her heels and tiptoed to kiss his cheek. “Consider this an interest.”

Matt returned the kiss. “Alright, I’ll get the rest once we go back.”

Everyone was stunned. Was this the same stone-faced General Snider? Spoiling his woman to such a degree in front of everyone?

All the ladies couldn’t help but want to scream, “Stop!”

This moment, Benjamin made his entrance, walking hesitantly into the room.

He strode to the front of Matt, paused and exchanged glances for a long while. The air seemed filled with animosity.

These two men had handsome features; Benjamin extruded an air of elegance; Matt had more of a commanding aura.

“Give her a break, will you? She’s my wife after all.”

Matt pursed his lips and smiled, “That depends on her.”

At this moment, her face swollen from the beating, Sharon begged for mercy, “Okay, okay, it’s my fault. I hired this woman to frame Winona.”

The crowd was in an uproar. People started to discuss among themselves as they sneaked glances at Winona.

“So the rumor that Miss Sharon stole her fiancé is true. How despicable.”

“That’s right. I actually pitied her at first; now I see she’s quite the scheming bitch.”

“How unfortunate for Mr. Benjamin. To have such a woman as his wife.”

Sharon scowled. How dare they mock her now? Didn’t they just praise her good fortune in marrying Benjamin? The audacity of these people!

Winona too! Who knew she managed to snag herself such a prize, General Snider of all people? She clenched her fists in resentment and vowed to be more careful next time.

However, right now, it was imperative that Benjamin salvage the situation. It wouldn’t do for the Larson family’s reputation to be tarnished any further, especially since she only married into the family a mere three days! Think about her reputation inside the household!

Sharon picked herself up and approached Winona tearfully. Extending her hand apologetically, she asked, “I hope you’ll forgive me. We’re sisters after all, right?”

Winona laughed as she held out her own hand. “Forgive you? Sure, provided you can take a hit.”

Ignoring her sister’s confusion, Winona slapped her with all her might.

“This is for stealing my fiancé.”
