Tom was completely dumbfounded when he heard this.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe thought to himself, 'Is this something that a f* eking person should be saying?! How can there be such a thing?! This b*tch is deliberately protecting her own family. She knew that I had offended her own nephew, and that is the reason why she is deliberately refusing to help to intercede on my behalf?!' Just as Tom was feeling extremely angry, Carmen said apologetically, "Tom, I'm really not lying to you. If I were to speak up, I might only be aggravating Charlie's punishment for you instead of alleviating it..." When Tom heard the sincerity in Carmen's tone, he could not help but feel even more puzzled as he blurted out and asked, "This... What do you mean by this, Aunt Wade? I... I cannot figure it out at all... Aren't you, his aunt?! Wouldn't he be willing to show you srespect at least?" Carmen laughed in a self-deprecating manner as she said, "Haha... Charlie showingrespect? His subordinates even dare to beatup! Furthermore, he did not even side withwhen his subordinates beatup. He sided with his subordinates instead. He even detainedin Aurous Hill during the New Year, and even though I begged him, he could not be bothered withat all. It was also completely useless even when my father pleaded with him on my behalf H As she spoke of this, Carmen thought of her unfortunate experience when she had been detained in the slums in Aurous Hill back then. Her nose started twitching as she began sobbing.
After that, Carmen then added, "Tell me, if I cannot even plead for myself, how can I possibly plead for you?" Tom was dumbfounded, and he felt like ten thousand people were slashing at his brain as though they were slashing a glass with a blade, and it made him feel as though his brain was about to pop out. He subconsciously blurted out, "This... He is simply a brute! What kind of person would treat their own aunt like this?!" Carmen also felt the sway as she sighed and said, "Tom, you're right..." At this time, Charlie, who had not spoken up, suddenly spoke up and asked, "Carmen Wade, have you forgotten why I detained you in Aurous Hill?" When Carmen suddenly heard Charlie's voice, she was instantly startled.
She did not bother to think about it as she blurted out and asked, "Tom, you... you turned on the speaker on the phone?" Tom replied awkwardly, "Yes... Charlie was the one who askedto turn it on..." Carmen, who had a desire to survive, instantly said, "I did not manage to finish my sentence just now! The reason why Charlie detainedin Aurous Hill was entirely because I did something wrong! I can only blmyself for it!" After she was done speaking, she hurriedly said in a flattering manner, "Charlie, you should not misunderstand me. I did not manage to finish my sentence just now. I did not mean anything else..." Tom's entire perception and worldview collapsed completely! 'Is this still Carmen Wade?!' 'Is this still the eldest lady in Eastcliff who is famous for being bold and shrewish?!' 'There's no one in Eastcliff who does not know that Carmen Wade has w that Carmen
always been very arrogant and domineering. She has always done whatever she wanted to, and she has never looked up to anyone before!'

When shem found out that Charlie was listening infon our conversation, she immediately started panicking and being frightened as though she was a mouse who had run into a cat?! Her desire to survive is too scary!' 'Is it because Carmen Wade is really too weak, or is it because Charlie Wade is just too strong?!'
Just as Tom was still utterly shocked, Charlie spoke up and asked spoke case, you're Carmen Then, in that case, you're not actually going to plead on behalf of this kid, right?" Carmen felt so embarrassed, and there were goosebumps all over her body.
She realized that Charlie was truly a very bad person.
