Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 577

Chapter 577

After Jeremy heard what she said, a layer of frost appeared in his eyes. “We have concrete proof and yet you’re still saying that Linnie framed you?”

Yvonne trembled. She did not dare to look into Jeremy’s eyes. “I-I didn’t. I’ve been treating the old master like he’s my grandpa this whole time. How would I…”

Winston was livid. He slammed his hand down on the table loudly. “I didn’t expect it to be you!”

“No, it’s not me. I didn’t! Uncle Winston, you have to believe me—”

“The truth is right in front of our eyes and you’re still lying to us!” Winston was outraged, and his face was turning from red to green.

After Karen got over her shock, she felt nervous.

Before she could get roped into this, she decided to gain the initiative by striking first. Hence, she slapped Yvonne heavily across the face.

“Yvonne, you’re such a disappointment! You’ve ruined the reputation of the Yalemans! I’m so mad!”

Karen pretended to feel resentful toward Yvonne for failing to meet her expectations. Then, she picked up the cane and yelled heatedly.

“Yvonne, how could you hit the old master? Are you insane? As your aunt, I have to punish you right now!”

As she shrieked, she pretended to hit Yvonne with the cane. Yvonne started wailing and bawling cooperatively. “Stop hitting me, Aunty Karen! It’s not me! I didn’t abuse the old master! Madeline is framing me! It’s her…”

Smack!

“Ah!”

Yvonne was still quibbling when a belt struck her violently.

She screamed and jumped up in pain.

When she lifted her head, she noticed that it was Jeremy who whipped her just now.

“J-Jeremy? Did you just whip me?” Yvonne stared at him tearfully while feeling shocked.
