Chaplain! - #361 - 361 The Punishment
“All of you, shut up!”
Ma’am Davis’s roar was like a thunderbolt that exploded in the entire hall!
Those who were from the Davis family, who had just been clamouring and acting very impressive, all lowered their heads.
Who would dare to say no?
Ma’am Davis was the head of the family.
She would have the final say.
“Is there anything else?”
Emilia stopped in her tracks, but she didn’t turn around, nor did she say anything else.
In fact, she wanted to leave. The reason why she stayed was entirely for her mother!
She knew what her mother was thinking!
So, when she found out that it was a fake painting, she thought that there was no hope, so she left with grief and indignation!
“Hmph!”
“What do you take me for?” Ma’am Davis said in a deep voice.
“Do I look like a snobbish person?”
Emilia smiled and didn’t say anything!
Ma’am Davis definitely wasn’t snobbish, but it was inevitable that she valued men over women and acted arbitrarily.
Oliver Walker did not refute either. No matter what, he had to leave some room for negotiation.
Before his wife said anything, he didn’t want to make things too awkward!
After all …
His wife was still related to these people here but that doesn’t mean that they could trampled over them!
An equal exchange was already his bottom line.
“Alright!”
Mrs. Davis, with her dragon-headed walking stick, came to Oliver Walker, her eyes shining. “I’ve underestimated you!”
In fact, when Oliver Walker was setting up the trap, she had already noticed that something was wrong!
Therefore…
She didn’t say a word.
Who knew that William Davis, who thought he was smart, would jump into the trap because he thought he was extraordinary, causing Ma’am to be in such a passive position!
“You’re flattering me!”
Oliver Walker smiled politely and said, “Actually, I’ve never changed. You’re the ones who changed!”
Back then, he was only living off a woman?
Hmmm….
They weren’t wrong.
That was because he had a capable wife but it didn’t mean that he was a useless man.
So it couldn’t be said that he had changed!
“Don’t you have a glib tongue?”
“How dare you challenge the Davis’s family rule?” Ma’am Davis said disdainfully.
“Alright then.”
“I’ll offer you a deal. If you dare to agree to the punishment, then I’ll give Emilia an explanation for what happened back then!”
Everyone was stunned by her words!
How did Ma’am Davis decide to make such major decision?!
Davis’s family punishment would kill him!
If Oliver Walker dared to agree to it, then …
Even if he didn’t end up dead, he would be severely injured.
“No!”
Emilia’s expression changed drastically, and she quickly denied, “I don’t want to return to the Davis Group!”
“Hubby, you …”
But at this moment, Oliver Walker replied nonchalantly, “Since the old lady has given me a chance, I can’t just give it up!”
There was a sudden uproar in the hall.
Did this kid agree to it?!
“You …”
Emilia’s beautiful eyes were tightly furrowed, and she suddenly had an emotional breakdown. “Do you know what the punishment is?!”
“Who asked you to agree?”
“If anything happens to you, I… What am I supposed to do?!”
She was mad!
She was furious!
Emilia grew up in the Davis family and she knew that the punishment wasn’t merely used to punish others. Even if Hercules was here, he wouldn’t be able to survive it!
She did not want anything to happen to her husband!
She wouldn’t allow it!
However, Oliver Walker swore to walk through hell for her.
So…
“If it’s what you want, I will do anything to get it for you.”
Oliver Walker steadied his trembling wife and sincerely replied, “Trust me!”
In fact, there was a tacit understanding between them!
Although his wife had never expressed that she wanted to return to the family…
But, with how his wife stopped, he already knew what his wife had in mind.
The Davis’s family punishment?
Could it be worse than what they had in prison?
Could it be more cruel than what happened on the battlefield?
Oliver Walker smiled.
“You …”
Emilia cried and shouted worriedly, “I don’t agree to it and I do not allow you to agree to it!”
“Do you hear me?!”
