Chapter 72 Deceitful
When Matida drove home angrily, she found the house empty except for the servant Menka to pick her up. According to Menka, Mr. Arthur was busy at the company, and Oswat stayed in the boarding room at the school for exam preparation.
Matida hummed in response, she sent the servant Menka to her room with a bottle of wine and kept silent not to reveal her use of alcohol to anyone. Menka obeyed and brought the wine to Matida. She took it and took a sip, sitting on an armchair in her room, starting to think about everything. Right now, she still hasn’t recovered and thought that one day Arthur, her beloved husband, could treat her like that. She sobbed and drank a lot of wine, she wanted to be weak for once today, and promised herself this would be the last time. And she asked a thousand questions in her mind why Arthur did it.
While thinking, she remembered the times she gave Arthur medicine, there were quite strange times when Matida discovered the pills in the trash. Matida deliberately ignored it when Arthur said that he had carelessly dropped it on the floor and that it was dirty medicine, which he proved to Matida by taking it directly in front of her.
At that moment, Matida suddenly remembered something, she seemed to wake up in the middle of a drunken state, she ran into Arthur’s room, flipped everything to find the number of drugs that he hid. That was Matida’s prediction and she would try to prove her suspicions right, but in her heart Matida wished it would be wrong because she still foolishly believed that Arthur wasn’t such a bad man. .
And when the servant Menka heard a loud noise coming from Mr. Arthur’s room, she rushed to check it out and saw that Matida was losing her temper with the strong smell of alcohol on her, she was trying to turn over this whole room up to find something. Menka worriedly asked:
“What is the lady looking for? Tell me, I’ll find it.”
Matida heard Menka’s voice and stopped, turned to her servant and asked:
“Menka, can you tell me about the times you gave my husband medicine? Is he acting strangely?”
Menka recalled and replied:
“I have never seen Mr. Arthur taking medicine in front of me at home. He kept saying he was tired and would drink in a little while.”
Matida heard Menka’s words, she was surprised and looked around the room, she continued to rummage through everything in the room. Matida looked for it in the drawers and bottles and jars in the room but still couldn’t find it, she sat helplessly on the side of the bed, thinking about something. Suddenly her hand touched a small part of the pill that was scattered near the bed, Matida immediately looked under the bed and discovered a tile that had been removed earlier. She quickly crawled out of bed and took it out, inside was a pack of drugs that Arthur had hidden.
She looked at them a little stunned, she shook her head and cried as if she couldn’t believe the truth before her eyes. She hugged her chest and sobbed as her heart broke into pieces, what did she do wrong to be treated like this by Mr. Arthur. Matida looked at the pills and other items scattered around the room, took a deep breath, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, thought about something, and ordered the servant Menka:
“Menka, please tidy everything up in this room, don’t tell anyone that I discovered this medicine. If you say a word, I will fire you immediately.”
Menka bowed, politely:
“Yes, madam. I will not reveal this to anyone.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Matida put the medicine back in its place under the bed, she just took a few pills and put them in a small plastic bag and put it in her purse. Matida stood up and wiped her tears again, she applied the powder that had passed on her face, adjusted her clothes and hair, and left the house quickly.
She went to the hospital where Oswat was being treated, she went to a close friend of hers who was a doctor at that hospital, she asked him to check if the pills are anti-dementia drugs or not. . He took Matida’s medicine and told her to come to the hospital tomorrow to get the results.
All that night, Arthur did not come home, he used the excuse to be busy at the company, she was not in the mood to pay attention to it anymore when now, she is always anxious and anxious to wait for the results tomorrow. . Early the next morning, Matida woke up early and had breakfast in a hurry, she quickly went to the hospital to receive the results. The doctor met Matida privately in the room and handed him a file, which she accepted and quickly opened. Gentle doctor says:
“This isn’t really a cure for dementia, it’s just a normal tonic and it doesn’t even cause drowsiness. As before, Arthur was in a serious traffic accident but the truth is not what we see. Yesterday you also asked me to review Arthur’s medical record, because I know a friend there, I asked her to copy Arthur’s real medical record. At first, she hesitated, but after talking for a while, she revealed to me that Mr. Arthur had bribed the doctor in charge to forge medical records. The truth behind him was only external injuries, not so bad that he lost his memory, the reason why he was injured so little was because he probably let his son take it, his medical records. That’s a real injury.”
Matida read the words on the result sheet, medical records and heard from her friend, she trembled with anger, she was really heartbroken and surprised when her guess was right, Mr. Arthur lied to me everything, everything is a play made by him, and she, like Blance, Oswat are puppets controlled by him.
Moreover, the most pitiful is that Oswat, Arthur’s biological son, was taken advantage of by him and turned him into a bulletproof shield for himself. Matida felt even more disgusted and disgusted at this despicable act. Doesn’t he love his son? He is truly a selfish man who only thinks of his own interests and sacrifices the lives of others to carry out his plan.
But Matida does not understand, why Arthur does everything for what purpose, she must find them. Matida kept calm, she stood up to thank the doctor and sent him some money so he could keep her secret. The doctor refused because he always considered her a close friend but Matida still forced him to accept it because only then she would not feel guilty and awkward when he helped her so much.
Matida took the files and walked out of the room, she quickly moved to the furniture company, where she worked and put them in a secret safe at the company. It will soon happen, the day when Matida reveals the true face of Arthur and the secrets he is hiding. From now on, she will send someone to personally investigate, she wants to know why Mr. Arthur acted like that, and at the same time, she will also track down Elise’s whereabouts herself.
At the same time at the Lawrence mansion, Jane is being forced to kneel by Brian because she intentionally broke the plate in the kitchen when he found out. It all comes down to him finding excuses to bully her for no reason, like when he threw Miss Hazel’s shoes for her and brought her another pair of shoes instead. But Jane still didn’t like it, she preferred the shoes Hazel had given her, she had looked everywhere in the mansion but still couldn’t find where Brian had dropped it. She was informed by the butler Allen that it had been returned to Lady Hazel, not thrown away, and that was Brian’s way of making it impossible for her to receive it again.
So Jane was very angry, she went quickly to the kitchen, taking advantage of the lack of servants there, Jane threw all the plates on the shelf on the ground, they were shattered and she excused herself with the excuse that she was clumsy dropped them when she stacked them on a high floor to arrange them in the cupboard.
But things are not as Jane expected, Jane’s every action can’t go through Brian’s eyes, he asked someone to review and know that she deliberately broke them, he asked her to deny and lie that everything she was careless. Brian got angry and made her kneel in the hallway for 3 hours. While being punished, Jane was extremely angry with him, she took advantage of no one to watch her and sat down on the ground to rest for a while. Brian knows it too, so from time to time, the guy passing by reminds:
“Hey, you’ve got another hour on your knees, don’t be lazy, if I catch you again, add an hour.”
Jane pursed her lips and looked at him angry, she didn’t say a word, just nodded slightly, he saw her expression just giggled, he sent someone to bring some cake and fruit tea for her to eat. Funny Brian says:
“I was afraid someone would starve to death when forced to kneel like this, so I brought some food for you to nourish. Next time don’t make me angry like that.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Brian quickly left the place, she watched him disappear, then sat down on the floor and put the cake in her mouth to chew deliciously, she silently scolded him:
“You think I’m afraid of you, I’ll get out of this hellish place quickly and revenge you later.”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
She finished the food and continued to kneel, an hour later the butler Allen informed her to go back to her room to rest a bit, then work as usual in the afternoon, he also gave her a potion and ask her to apply it to the swelling on either side of the knee. Jane took it and went back to her room, scolding Brian for making her suffer like this as she walked. But aside from scolding her, she couldn’t do anything else, even the chance to run away didn’t come easily, the only way now was to wait and find the right time to escape without anyone can be detected. Jane quietly went to her room to rest.
