Chapter 53 Stop Pretending to Be Nice

The tablets of the Stewart family’s ancestors were placed in the Reflection Room in the Stewart’s home Kneeling in the Reflection Room was the most serious punishment for the Stewart family.

Braden was silent the whole time. With the whip marks all over his back, he knelt in front of the tablets, while the ground was so cold and hard that it might break his knees.

Howard ordered Aspen with a stern face

Aspen

looked at Braden’s bloody back and was very worried. She mustered up her courage to plead, “Mr. Stewart, he just got whipped, and he is seriously injured. Kneeling for three days without eating or drinking will be too much for anyone, including him!”

“He did something wrong, and he was willing to be punished. He said so himself.”

Howard was merciless and didn’t even glance at Braden.

The atmosphere at the dining table was harmonious.

“Shirley, try the fish. I remember that you like fish the most, right? It’s made by a new chief this time. Go ahead and see if it suits your taste

“Thank you, Howard.”

Shirley obediently took it and chewed mechanically.

“There are many ways to cook fish. You may steam it, braise it, or fry it. And the most challer;

way is steaming…”

Shirley was absent–minded.

She thought, seriously? Howard, Braden is kneeling in the Reflection Room with a blood–stained back, starving and suffering from the cold. And you are here, discussing ways of making fish with me in high spirits?

After dinner, it was time to leave Shirley looked back several times, wanting to say something but hesitating.
