Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez by Selina Gorges

Chapter 493

Carl waved at Lucas. "Go and make Oliver kneel until I'm finished talking with Ms. Zeller. Find the sunniest spot to give him a good sunburn. He's got shit for brains. How can someone his age still act so thoughtlessly?"

Lucas bent slightly and whispered, "Sir, should we have Oliver carry the rattan on his back? The new rattan was just delivered a few days ago, and he hasn't used it yet."

"Must Oliver be punished with the rattan on his back?" Emmett originally thought Carl would not agree to that.

To everyone's surprise, Carl seriously considered the idea and told Lucas, "That's a good idea. Let Oliver carry the rattan on his back. By the way, have Joe join in as well, but he doesn't need to carry anything on his back"

Lucas nodded and then left. Seeing that Yvette did not seem to re much, Carl finally felt relieved.

If there were people in this world who knew Yvette so well, Joe must be one of them. Carl and Yvette sat down as Emmett stood behind them.

Carl took a sip of coffee and casually glanced at Emmett. He lowered his eyes as he remembered how Yvette always used to be a loner. As Joe had said, she never kept anyone close.
