Chapter 6 She Doesn't Deserve It
751 Words
Jo, who was forced to kneel beside the bed, was stunned.
What did she want?
Speaking of it, once she saw Nancy wearing a beautiful rare gem necklace. She was very envious. She once mentioned to Shepherd that she also wanted one.
Shepherd agreed.
However, several months had passed, and he should have forgotten it long ago.
Although what Jo longed for was not the thing itself, but the man's attitude and warmth. But she put it forward under this situation.
Jo bowed her head knowingly and didn't speak.
But many times, some embarrassment couldn’t be avoided even if she didn’t want to face.
Next, the man's harsh words were particularly harsh in her ears.
"Don't care about her, Nancy. She doesn't deserve it! I am asking you now, not that bad thing!"
Maybe Jo's existence affected the atmosphere of sibling affection. The next moment, Jo was scolded by the man to get ou so that she wouldn’t be an eyesore.
"Yes, Mr. Shepherd." Jo answered in a daze, and then got up from the ground.
But when she got up, she was blind and didn't know which direction was the door.
Shepherd just kept looking at her coldly and didn't ask anyone to take her away.
So, after a few seconds, Jo realized that this was the small punishment from Shepherd as she had annoyed him.
She tried to find a direction and groped forward step by step.
Because the road ahead was unknown and dark, Jo became increasingly helpless as she walked. But the man never said to help her from beginning to end.
It took seven or eight minutes for Jo to walk several meters. At the end, she tripped over a dustbin at the door. As a result, her arms and legs hurt a lot, and her palm was bleeding. She could not help humming in pain.
Subconsciously, because Jo felt wronged, tears filled her empty eyes. She really wanted Shepherd to come to ask her if it hurt, even if he just helped her up or just let her be careful.
She didn’t want the totally lonely and helpless feeling.
"Shepherd, go and help Jo up. It seems that it hurts a lot." Nancy suddenly said and spoke in a distressed tone.
But she was coldly refused by Sherry, "Don't worry about her. People will always be punished if they do something wrong. She was paying for her evil actions!"
Especially in contrast with Nancy who was understanding, gentle and kind, Shepherd felt that Jo, who was raised by him, should learn more lessons and get her temper honed.
However, he didn't know that his casual words made Jo feel cold as if her heart was covered with ice.
The man always reminded her that he didn’t believe her and she deserved it...
She really looked like a clown!
Jo smiled bitterly. The tears she tried to restrain still shed down uncontrollably.
At the same time, she already got up by herself, groped around carefully and touched the door in front of her.
At this moment, she touched something, and she felt a sense of security.
But she didn't dare to stay here.
Because the next moment, she heard the man's cold voice, "You're so dawdling. Get out quickly!"
"Yes, Mr. Shepherd." Jo was obedient and hurried out of the door in a panic.
At the moment when the door closed, she could clearly hear the man talk to Nancy ina very doting tone.
"Nancy, my parents are coming tonight. My mother just called me to ask if you wanted to eat anything. She will cook it for you herself."
"Wow, the meal made by mom is the best. Then I want to eat my favorite sweet and sour pork ribs and crucian carp soup..."
So warm and loving.
Jo, who was outside the door, was very envious.
However, she also knew that as an adopted servant , she was not qualified to eat at the same table with his family.
Jo understood it so clearly that she felt extremely sorrowful and despairing She squatted down slowly, hugged herself and burst into tears.
After crying for a while, she got up and went on.
But neither did Jo know which ward she lived in nor where she should go or stop.
She just walked forward numbly with tears still on her face.
"What are you doing! Don’t you watch when you walk? "
Suddenly, at the corner, a nurse pushing a cart quickly bumped into Jo.
