It's okay to give me a punishment.

Episode 13: It's okay to give me punishment.

***

Behind the mansion of Adam Duke, the,

A clean white cold sheet touched the wounds on his hands that had not dried, it felt a little sore.

His body was also already exhausted, his injured leg had not fully healed either, his breathing was a little breathless as he had to tiptoe to sun the cloth alone.

But Alice did not feel sad or unfair, there she felt happy and excited, her wounds that caused pain were not comparable to the happiness in her heart.

How not, he was so happy to be useful to Adam Duke, he was happy how Adam Duke told him to do this all.

Just the one that the innocent young girl wanted, she wanted Adam Duke to be proud of her, praising her for doing everything well and right.

His hands are still actively tidying up the cloth, so that it can sunbathe neatly, the smile on his face that looks pale and tired has not disappeared.

Until when ....

From behind the white cloth that was blown by the wind, Alice saw a well-built man, wearing a white shirt, his face handsome, and he looked so dominant and tall.

"Deg ... Deg ... Deg!"

When she saw the man, Alice's heart was beating so fast, she fell silent and stopped the activities she was doing.

The face that was only vague in his eyes was now able to see very clearly.

It turned out that her husband was very handsome, it made Alice speechless and it was as if time was going very slowly.

Alice instantly knew the man was her husband, she could feel it, her aura was the same as the man who drove out all the bad whispers in her ears.

"No ... Tak ... No!"

Adam stepped closer, Alice's eyes were still attached and her mouth was still tightly closed as if she could not describe what she was feeling, nor did she know what to do, he was obviously confused but also excited at the same time.

Alice, who was still around the white cloth that had hung neatly around her, tried to step limped to the side where the white cloth would no longer block her.

He lowered his head and his hands he clenched in front, showing courtesy and respect to Adam Duke.

Adam Duke had stepped closer, he was already in front of Alice, the distance was only about 2 steps, their distance was so close that it made Alice even more nervous.

"Lift your face!"

His voice was low but had pressure in his tone, approaching the hearing of Alice who had been confused since not knowing what to say, not knowing how to behave.

But upon hearing her husband's words, Alice slowly began to raise her face.

Unable to be described by Alice before, Adam was the first man who was really close to her, it was really confusing and made her wonder, why she felt so strange right now.

"Tu ... Mr. Adam," his voice was so soft, as gentle as the cold wind that greeted the two.

Adam's heart felt squeezed, he didn't understand what was happening to him, he was confused and he was upset, why he felt sick and anxious at the same time, it was really disturbing right now.

Adam could see clearly, a pale white face, showing fatigue, in his hands many cuts and bruises, it seemed like a lot of work he was doing and it was only his first time that he injured himself.

In addition, her legs which were shot at last and her bandages were already in bad condition, only left for one week, Alice turned even more miserable, her body remained thin, her body remained thin, and his face still looks pitiful.

"Now what are you doing?" his voice was so firm, his eyes were attached to look into Alice's eyes who looked confused to find that Adam seemed unhappy with everything he had done.

"Why does Mr Adam look so angry?"

"Ah, maybe because my work is not over, a lot of cloth that I have not sun dried, the backyard is also not entirely cleaned, ah, stupid me,"

Alice spoke within herself, puzzled as to why Adam seemed angry, but she could deduce for herself that it seemed that Adam was angry because he had not finished his work.

"Tu ... Sir, I'm sorry, I haven't finished drying the cloth yet, I haven't finished cleaning the backyard either, but, I'll definitely be useful to you,"

Alice smiled, with a slight stammer, and eyes that were less focused due to speaking quickly.

"This woman, does she not feel pain? his hands were full of wounds, his legs were also, his face was pale and it seemed like he had a fever from mostly being exposed to water, why did he keep smiling at me? why?"

Adam felt increasingly claustrophobic, the more he saw Alice smiling the more his heart ached, the more he saw the sincerity in this woman's eyes the more upset he was to himself.

Feeling women as smooth and innocent as this should not exist in the modern world as it is now.

"Well!"

Adam's chest tightened, his breathing became heavier.

"I ASK WHAT ARE YOU DOING RIGHT NOW? HA? WHY ARE YOU HURT AND WHY ARE YOU DRYING UP A CLOTH LIKE THIS?"

Unknowingly, Adam snapped in a loud voice, his voice echoing in the backyard and making Alice shocked once.

Tears were not flowing down Alice's cheeks, this kind of clash was very common during her time in brackets, not just from servants who did not like to look after her, but he was used to being yelled at by Rose and found torture.

Hearing the powerful voice and the great intensity of Adam's anger, Alice immediately covered her face, she pointed at the alert body language.

"Tu ... Sir, if you want to hit me it's okay, I know my job isn't done so I deserve to be punished, but .. But please don't hit me in the face, or lock me up in a dark room, please, I was guilty of not being able to do a good job, so ..." her voice trembled in fear, her tears had already violently broken, her hands that seemed to cover her face were visibly trembling.
