Chapter 949: The Nightmare Reappeared
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Wan and Fiennes stood facing each other, standing very close to each other.
Just a distance away from a transparent crystal lamp, Fiennes and Su Wan looked at each other and he slowly narrated the third nightmare in his life.
His first nightmare came from the day his mother jumped into the lake. His second nightmare was killing his favorite little squirrel, Dodo.
His third nightmare was probably being locked up in this Quiet Room by Madam Wang. He could not stop thinking about the painful past of the first two.
At that time, Fiennes was still very young. He was only thirteen years old. At that time, Fiennes had just killed his innocent and pitiful squirrel with his own hands. He did not even have time to bury it in the ground.
Fiennes’ hands were covered in blood.
Suddenly, his arms were clamped by someone. His knees were kicked hard, but he still refused to kneel in front of Madam Wang.
At that time, Diya’s mother, Madam Wang, was much younger than she was now. She was not even thirty years old.
Madam Wang was wearing a dress with bright red crocheted flowers. She was wearing a pearl carved into a pale plum blossom on her ear. She stared at him and looked down on him.
She was arrogant.
Fiennes would never forget that day.
Madam Wang was indifferently surrounded by a few maids. Her phoenix-like eyes stared at him calmly.
This was Fiennes’ courtyard, yet Madam Wang just sat on the main seat, as if this was her territory and she was the only master.
“Fiennes, do you know your mistake?”
This boy was really stubborn.
“Fiennes doesn’t know where he’s wrong.”
Fiennes’ voice was neither high nor low, but it was enough for everyone to hear!
As soon as Fiennes said this, the surroundings instantly became silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop!
Even the two guards who were restraining Fiennes’ arm couldn’t help but widen their eyes.
–this kid really has guts!
…
The maid who stood closest to Madam Wang was called Xiao Yuan.
She saw Fiennes’ reddened eyes and immediately poked Madam Wang’s arm because she was favored, shouting loudly.
“Madam, that scoundrel is staring at you!”
He wasn’t even fifteen years old and hadn’t been listed in the family tree. He hadn’t even been recognized as a member of the Siswell family, yet he dared to show off like this. Did he really think that he could wait until he was fifteen years old to become the heir!
He was not even willing to call Madam Wang ‘mother’. Who knew what would happen in the future!
Hearing the words of the servant girl, Xiao Yuan, Fiennes clenched his fists slightly. A section of blue veins appeared on his knuckles, still savage.
… It was this woman.
If possible, Fiennes really hoped that he would have endless strength. He would shake off the two guards who were restraining his arms and directly cut off the mouth of that servant girl!
He would make that maid unable to say a single word!
If it were not for this woman, his squirrel would not have died.
Fiennes stared at his still bloody hand, and his heart felt a dull pain.
His Dodo…
After Fiennes had killed Dodo, Madam Wang felt that it was dirty and had already ordered people to remove the squirrel’s body.
Fiennes lowered his head even lower. His eyes and brows, which had yet to fully develop, had already revealed a vicious and malicious aura.
However, there was even more despair.
There would never be another squirrel that was extremely dull and cute, and liked to jump around in front of him again.
–Dodo, I’m sorry. If there is a next life, even if your leg is injured by a beast trap, don’t run into his courtyard again. He isn’t a good master.
How could a person who couldn’t protect himself protect a squirrel?
Madam Wang saw that Fiennes was still staring at his bloodstained hand, and she couldn’t help but curl her lips in disgust.
She snorted coldly, and her beautiful phoenix-like eyes instantly overflowed with a sharp and cold light.
“Fiennes, you’re blaming me for taking Xiao Yuan’s suggestion. I only asked you to kill that squirrel. Why are you so sad?”
Madam Wang stood up and took a few steps closer to Fiennes.
She looked down at Fiennes, her crimson lips slightly pursed with an insufferably arrogant air.
At that time, Madam Wang was even more arrogant than Diya, who was now young and full of vigor. This kind of arrogance was like completely treating others as ants.
Fiennes gritted his teeth. He was so close to Madam Wang.
So close that he only needed to open his mouth slightly and spit on Madam Wang.
This woman was rumored to be obsessed with cleanliness.
However, Fiennes ultimately endured it.
The veins on his forehead bulged, and his eyes were as red as blood. However, his voice was extremely calm.
“Fiennes wouldn’t dare.”
When Madam Wang heard this, she suddenly took two steps around Fiennes. The seawater pearls carved into plum blossoms on her ears rustled, and a few glazed threads were messed up.
“Wouldn’t dare. What would you not dare to do?”
Madam Wang looked at Fiennes with disdain. When she saw that Fiennes had really killed that squirrel, she was inexplicably a little afraid of this youth.
She could see that Fiennes really liked that squirrel.
She heard that it accompanied him every day and every night and was by his side even while he read.
…
Ever since Fiennes moved to the main courtyard, Madam Wang had felt a deep sense of discomfort.
This youth was only thirteen years old and had not even grown his hair yet, yet he was so unruly. He did not even want to call her mother!
How could such a little bastard be well-fed!
Madam Wang was thinking about how to make this youth understand his own situation and completely tame him.
Her personal maid, Xiao Yuan, suggested that they start with Fiennes’ pet, and Madam Wang immediately agreed.
It was just a squirrel, not a human life. In Madam Wang’s opinion, killing it was just killing it, as a show of strength to the young man.
Madam Wang found a random excuse, saying that the squirrel had rammed into her. Then her maid, Xiao Yuan, scolded Fiennes for letting it almost make Madam Wang allergic.
Then, Madam Wang said to have the guards kill the squirrel.
Unexpectedly, Fiennes, who was being held down by the guards, suddenly had red eyes. He told them that he would rather do it himself!
Everyone was shocked. Fiennes wanted to do it himself?!
After all, it was his pet that he had kept for two months. Could he really be that ruthless?
Madam Wang coldly agreed, and Fiennes took the shiny silver knife and moved closer to the poor squirrel.
At that time, Fiennes looked at the squirrel with an extremely gentle expression, but the knife in his hand was even sharper.
It was a fatal blow.
His hand was full of blood.
Then, Fiennes suddenly burst into laughter. That laughter did not have any vitality at all, and it sounded extremely terrifying!
When Madam Wang saw Fiennes’ terrifying appearance, she immediately had people stop him!
…
And now, the two of them were still in a confrontation.
“Fiennes, why aren’t you willing to call me mother?”
Fiennes lowered his head and stared at the ground, as if he wanted to see through the floor.
“I only have one mother, and she has already passed away.”
Was this cursing her to die?!
Madam Wang’s expression instantly changed, and she immediately waved her arm without thinking, her expression extremely grim.
“Well, you don’t acknowledge me, do you? Men, lock him in the Quiet Room!”
