Chapter 940 Family Violence
Mabel was frightened, shrinking back into the corner desperately, with tears on her face and fear in her eyes. Seeing her fearful look, Dawson felt a strange sense of satisfaction. He raised his fist and hit several times on Mabel’s body, which was covered by her clothes. Mabel didn’t dare to scream but only bite the back of her hand, fearing others would discover her if she screamed. Mabel knew once someone else came, Dawson would only beat her worse. After venting his depression over the past few days, Dawson got Mabel up. He touched Mabel’s head with a smile. “Good. You should know that I beat you for your own good. You have to always be a good girl. Got it?”
Mabel nodded in horror, and her fearful look made Dawson even more satisfied. He even kissed Mabel on the lips pitifully. “If you are fine, Milo will be fine too. Do you understand?”
Hearing Milo’s name, Mabel trembled and said in a hoarse voice, “Yes… Please don’t hurt him.” “Of course.” Dawson gently ran his fingers through Mabel’s hair. “He is also my child, isn’t he?” No one knew what was happening in the room. It wasn’t until the next day that everyone noticed something was wrong when they saw Mabel walking with a limp. “What’s wrong?” Charlotte noticed that Mabel went downstairs strangely, so she quickly stepped forward to help her. But just as her hand touched Mabel, Mabel quickly avoided her as if she had been electrocuted.
Charlotte’s hand stopped in mid-air awkwardly. “Mabel accidentally sprained her ankle yesterday. She was afraid of getting you into trouble, so she quickly dodged. Please don’t get her wrong.” Dawson came out of nowhere. Seeing this scene, he quickly stepped forward to support Mabel and explained to Charlotte. Charlotte nodded. “No worries. I’m very strong.” Dawson pinched Mabel hard from an angle that no one else could see. Tears immediately welled up in Mabel’s eyes. She apologized to Charlotte with red eyes, “I’m sorry… I…” Before she could finish her speech, Charlotte waved her hands and said, “It’s not a big deal. You don’t have to apologize so solemnly.” Charlotte smiled at Mabel, who happened to look at her gratefully. Charlotte accidentally saw that there seemed to be bruises on her body. Mabel immediately pulled up her collar in embarrassment. Charlotte coughed lightly and looked away. Charlotte didn’t give it another thought. She just thought that they were hickeys, and Mabel and Dawson were embarrassed because she noticed that. Everyone came to the hall. Jerome looked at them with a smile. “I believe you are expecting more of the treasure hunt trip. To let everyone better understand the history of Castle Town, we have specially assigned a route for everyone. I hope you can find people who know about the tradition of Castle Town and learn a simple traditional skill from them.” Jerome held a meeting with his team last night just to find something to do for these guests. They discussed it for all night and finally decided on a reasonable project.
Finding people who they could learn traditional skills from wouldn’t be easy. Besides, learning a skill would take several days. In this case, the show team would get more footage for their variety show. Seeing the smile on Jerome’s face, the guests were keenly aware that this mission would take a lot of work.
