Chapter 288 Ceres's Hint
Everyone was shocked.
Fights often happened in this manor. But this was the first time they had seen someone so reckless!
Ceres pulled the servant out of the manure bucket and threw her to the ground.
The servant smelled so bad that everyone stayed away from her.
The servant was frightened and burst into tears. "I'll tell Mr. Dylan!"
"I don't care." Ceres snorted coldly.
Ceres said to all the servants, "I'm not only ugly but also ruthless. I have been bullied since I was
young. If someone wants to bully me, I'll deal with him hard."
Then Ceres picked up the shovel and continued working.
Everyone was stunned and looked at each other.
"What are you doing?" Dylan happened to pass by and saw this.
The servant who was thrown into the manure barrel was called Emma. When she saw Dylan, she cried
even more fiercely. "Mr. Dylan, you have to help me. She threw me into the manure bucket..."
Dylan hurriedly took a few steps back because the smell was too pungent.
The other servants were silent.
"Carly, come here!" Dylan looked at Ceres and Ceres was working hard.
Ceres put down the shovel and walked up to Dylan.
"Did you throw Emma into the manure bucket?"
"Yes, I did."
"Why did you do this?" Dylan scolded.
"She deliberately poured dung on me, so I threw her into the manure bucket." Ceres did not defend
herself and she just told the truth.
Emma cried. "Mr. Dylan, I didn't do this! She's so ugly and I'm prettier than her, so she's jealous of me!"
Dylan was impatient. "Alright. Go take a shower. The others continue to work. Emma, if you
deliberately cause trouble again, I will punish you! You and Carly will be fined 100 each!"
Then Dylan left.
Emma was stunned. 'Why should I be fined?'
"Mr. Dylan! I didn't do this!" Emma caught up with Dylan.
"If you didn't do this, why is there dung on Carly? You keep saying Carly is ugly, so you must loathe her
and deliberately pick a quarrel with her. In the future, no one is allowed to say that Carly is ugly!"
After saying this, Dylan left.
Emma glared at Ceres and she was angry.
'I was thrown into the manure bucket by you and fined for you! Carly, this isn't the end!'
At night, Roy asked Dylan about Ceres.
"The work related to the garden is heavy and most girls can't abide such heavy work. Carly was very
diligent and did a good job, but..."
Dylan admired Ceres.
"Just speak out."
"She's so tough!" Dylan had worked in this manor for many years, but it was the first time he had seen
a girl so tough. He told Roy about Ceres pressing Emma in the manure bucket.
"When I asked her what had happened, she just answered but didn't defend herself. If it was someone
else, they would have been deceived by Emma."
Roy smiled faintly.
'Her style is very similar to Caleb's.'
"Mr. Roy, do I need to arrange some easier work for Carly? Although she doesn't complain, I know that
she is tired and she doesn't even have time to eat at night."
Roy thought for a moment and shook his head. "No. You don't need to take special care of her because
of me."
Dylan nodded.
Ceres used to do these rough jobs when she was in the Morrises' place. Perhaps it was because she
had been living well these years that she was not as strong as before.
After a day of work, Ceres was exhausted. As soon as it was time to get off work, she went back to the
dormitory. At this time, there was no one in the dormitory and she could rest quietly for a while.
'It seems that work more and people will be strong.'
Ceres got out of bed and walked to the canteen.
But the canteen was closed.
"What?"
"The servants eat at different times. If you miss the mealtime, the canteen will close."
A familiar voice came from behind.
Ceres glanced at Roy. "This rule is not reasonable at all."
When Ceres worked in the Morrises' place, she could occasionally sneak into the kitchen to find
something to eat. But now, she didn't even have the time to eat.
Roy took out a hamburger and gave it to Ceres.
Ceres was so hungry that she took the hamburger and wolfed it down. "You are friendly!"
Ceres mumbled.
Roy smiled. "I heard that you threw a servant into a manure bucket today."
"Bad news travels fast." Ceres sat on the steps and smiled.
"I didn't expect you to be so tough."
"I have been bullied for a long time, so I can't let people bully me anymore."
Ceres astonished Roy.
"Take your time. I have to go. Remember what I told you. Don't go in. If Mr. Caleb and Miss Jamie see
you, you'll be evicted."
Roy took a few steps and then stopped. "But it is heavily guarded here. As a servant, you can't enter."
Roy said as he looked somewhere.
When Ceres saw this, she thought for a moment.
Then Roy left.
After Ceres returned to the dormitory, everyone was asleep. Ceres was lying on the bed, but she was
unable to fall asleep.
She knew what Roy said and where he looked was a hint to her.
Ceres didn't want to waste time here. She had to get the goods on Jamie and force Jamie to tell her
what happened in the past.
At midnight, Ceres left the dormitory and came to the place Roy hinted at.
No one was guarding here. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Ceres entered easily, but she realized that something was wrong!
