Free Web NovelChapter 387: BIG MOUTH
Madam Laura continued to search for the clothes but she didn’t see anything. Given Felicia’s constant glances towards the mother and daughter duo, she made sure to search again, more carefully this time but she still didn’t find anything.
Hissing in frustration, she flung a piece of clothing away and growled.
"It’s not here! Who took my phone?!" She questioned.
Juliet turned to look at Felicia and instantly, the both of them made eye contact but the faint smirk was still on Felicia’s lips which confused Juliet.
’Shouldn’t she be frowning by now since what she planned didn’t work out?’ She wondered as she started to rethink what Felicia could be up to.
"Boss, did you search under the bed? I’m sure that’s the perfect hiding spot for them to hide the phone." Felicia suggested, attempting to walk towards the bed but madam Laura held her hand in front of her, stopping her from moving any further.
"I will do it," said Madam Laura.
Mary and Juliet shared a worried look and they could already hear the bells ringing on them. freeweɓnøvel.com
Despite her old age, Madam Laura could lift the wooden bed without any assistance and there it was, the phone that they had been looking for all day.
Madam Laura picked up the phone and dropped the bed back into its position.
"You hid my phone under your bed." She stated, clutching the phone in her hand while she glared at the mother and daughter duo.
Mary held Juliet by the arm for she knew how hot-tempered Juliet was. Even though she is sure that Juliet wasn’t the one who took the phone, she might try to force Madam Laura to believe her and then the old woman will get her punished for being disrespectful again.
Mary sighed at this thought but there was little to nothing she could do at the moment.
"I wasn’t the one who took your phone."
She heard Juliet speak and she looked at her daughter.
"Just because you found the phone under my bed, it doesn’t mean that I was the one who took it, use your brain old hag," Juliet added.
Mary instantly let go of Juliet’s hand when she heard the last words that Juliet spat out. Her action only meant one thing. She gave up. She wasn’t going to protect her daughter again.
"What did you just call me?" Madam Laura questioned Juliet while taking steps towards her.
"This only proves that you are old. I said I wasn’t the one who took the phone. It was Felicia." Juliet replied, pointing at Felicia whose hand was covered around her mouth as she snickered a little but unfortunately for Juliet, Madam Laura wasn’t interested to know if Felicia was the mastermind behind it all. She already saw the phone under Juliet’s bed, which only meant that Juliet was the one who took the phone.
Not to talk about the insult the girl had just fired at her, it only made her blood boil uncontrollably.
"AJ! Bring me my blade," Madam Laura suddenly ordered and the disciple called AJ didn’t waste a moment and did as her boss had ordered.
Felicia snickered even more loudly when she heard Madam Laura.
’Finally! She’d finally get what she deserves,’ she thought to herself.
Madam Laura gave a sign to her other disciples and they pushed Juliet on the ground, her bone in her knees nearly broke due to how hard they had pushed her towards the floor. She could only yelp in pain.
Mary sighed before she moved away from Juliet. She had warned her daughter so many times but she had refused to listen to her and there was nothing for her to do again except to watch as her daughter get scarred by Madam Laura.
It didn’t take long before AJ returned with the blade. It was a dagger, the end was pointy and the blade part shun so brightly as if it had just been sharpened.
Madam Laura took the blade from AJ and smiled like the creepy old wicked lady she was before her eyes settled on Juliet who was still holding up a brave stance.
"Now, repeat what you called me earlier?" She demanded ever so sweetly which caused Juliet to frown a little.
Seconds passed but Juliet didn’t dare to utter a word.
Annoyed, madam slapped Juliet hard on the cheek, and blood gathered in her mouth.
Felicia flinched from where she stood as she shook her head slightly.
’I wonder if her old wrinkled hand doesn’t hurt her with the amount of slaps she gives people here daily.’ She wondered but wore a satisfied smile on her face.
Madam Laura bent to grab Juliet by the chin and glared into the girl’s eyes.
"I said, repeat what you just said to me a while ago!"
Juliet’s face had already turned red from how scared she was and tears were already starting to pool in her eyes but she wouldn’t dare to repeat what Madam Laura wanted to say. It was a trap but even if she wouldn’t say it, she still wouldn’t be able to escape the state she was.
"So the cat has finally caught your tongue, huh? I thought there was always something in your mouth and you couldn’t close them for a second so why are you quiet today, hmm?" Madam Laura asked with a creepy smile stretched to her wrinkled cheeks.
"Are you scared of this blade?" She raised the blade towards Juliet’s face and tears dropped from her eyes which satisfied a particular someone standing in the corner.
"Don’t you dare hurt me! If you do, I will scream and grab the attention of the wardens outside. I’m sure you wouldn’t want that Laura." Juliet threatened and called her by her name. She had nothing to lose anyway so she might as well risk everything.
Madam Laura laughed out loud. The inmates followed even though nothing funny was said before she suddenly tore Juliet’s face with a single move.
