Chapter 11 Basement
Arriving at the first floor of the mansion, Shalan looked at the maids and servants on the first floor, ignored them, and just walked around looking for Sally.
At this moment, Shalan suddenly heard faint crying and scolding. Shalan immediately walked towards the direction where the sound came from. Although there were maids and servants who wanted to stop Shalan along the way, they were kicked away by him. He went straight to the door of a basement on the inside of the first floor of the mansion. Hearing the crying and scolding inside, Shalan kicked the door open and walked in.
Arriving at the basement, Shalan looked at Sally, who was kneeling on the ground and wiping the basement floor. There were many slightly raised red vertical marks on her face and arms. She also saw a thin middle-aged man with a slightly wretched look and an obscene expression standing aside, holding a thin bamboo stick more than one meter long and hitting Sally on the body.
"Snapped!"
Shalan caught the thin bamboo branch and felt the slight pain in her palm. Her expression became calmer, but there seemed to be a red light flashing in her eyes, showing her extreme anger.
When he traveled through time and space, Shallan had just traveled to this world and didn't know some things about it, so he decided to keep a low profile. Although he discovered what Vanessa and Sandman had done to him, Shallan still endured it.
But now Vanessa's behavior of trying to get close to him has fundamentally threatened Shallan, so he does not intend to keep low-key and forbearing. Besides, Shallan has already been initially recognized by Roll, so there is no need to keep low-key and forbearing!
After pulling the thin bamboo stick out of the wretched, frail middle-aged man's hand, Shalan turned to Sally and said, "Sally, stand up. You are my personal maid. You don't have to kneel to anyone except me and my father."
After hearing what Shalan said, Sally was about to stand up from the ground, but at this moment, the wretched, thin middle-aged man shouted, "Sally, you little bitch, if you dare to stand up, don't blame me for being cruel in the future."
When Sally heard this, her body trembled, and she was about to stand up, but she froze in place.
At this time, the thin and wretched middle-aged man looked at Shalan, laughed and said, "Master Shalan, this is not a clean place. You'd better leave quickly. You are so noble, you shouldn't come to this kind of place. Otherwise, if the Countess sees you, she will punish you."
Shallan looked at the other person and suddenly laughed. She said, "I suddenly realized that this family seems to have become a little strange. Every servant said Countess, Countess, but I don't think anyone said anything about the Earl? Could it be that without my knowledge, this family has become a place where the Countess is the only one in charge? Or has this huge Werman Manor been renamed after the Countess's surname, Franklin?"
"Master Shalan, please don't make things difficult for me, otherwise..."
"Snapped!"
Before the thin and wretched middle-aged man could finish his words, Shalan swung the thin bamboo stick in her hand and hit him on the mouth, causing him to scream in pain and swallow back the words he had not yet finished .
"Sally, I'm telling you one last time, stand up, or you won't have to stay with me anymore."
Hearing Shalan's words, Sally gritted her teeth and stood up from the ground, her eyes filled with hatred for the wretched middle-aged man.
Seeing Sally's gaze, Shalan handed the thin bamboo stick in her hand to her and said, "Sally, you have to hit him back as many times as he hit you, no more, no less. We don't bully others, but if someone bullies us, we must give a tooth for a tooth, blood for blood!"
Shalan's words seemed to open some shackles. A hint of determination flashed in Sally's eyes. She nodded fiercely, took the thin bamboo stick, and hit the wretched middle-aged man in the face.
Looking at Sally in disbelief, the wretched middle-aged man did not dare to attack Shalan, but he had no scruples at all when facing Sally. He roared and pounced on Sally. But before he could rush over, Shalan who was standing aside suddenly raised her leg and kicked the wretched middle-aged man on the knee, causing his knee to hurt and soften, and he fell to the ground.
Without waiting for the wretched middle-aged man to stand up again, Shalan reached out and grabbed a hoe from the side. With a cold light in her eyes, she swung the hoe violently and hit the wretched middle-aged man's knees, breaking both of his knees. No matter how he struggled, begged for mercy, or roared, it was of no use.
Both of his knees were broken, which seemed to have also shattered the wretched middle-aged man's confidence in Vanessa. He looked at Sally in horror and let Sally hit him with the thin bamboo stick. He could only roll on the ground and wailing like a dying old dog.
"stop!"
Hearing this, Shalan looked up and saw Vanessa, Shaman and some servants standing at the door of the basement. She looked at the wretched middle-aged man being whipped by Sally with a thin bamboo stick, and said to Shalan with an extremely unpleasant expression: "Shalan, what are you doing? Are you going to show off your power as the earl's heir by beating and humiliating the servants?"
Looking at Vanessa, Shalan suddenly laughed and said to Vanessa lightly: "Vanessa, you also know that I am the heir to the earldom , not the little guy behind you, so why don't I warn you not to use such a condescending tone towards me in the future, otherwise I will not give you face anymore."
Vanessa stared at Shalan with her eyes wide open, as if she couldn't believe that Shalan said this. She pointed at Shalan and said word by word: "Shalan, how dare you talk to me like this?"
"Oh? Why shouldn't I dare to speak to you like this?"
"You...well! I want to see if you dare to talk to me like this in front of your father!"
"Of course, I would still dare to say this even in front of my father, but apart from this matter, I also want to have a good talk with my father about the two pots of velvet snowflakes you gave me.
After all, I really like the two things you included in it, so I will naturally tell my father about this matter. I think after my father knows about this, he will love you even more."
As soon as these words were spoken, Vanessa and Shaman who was standing behind him changed their expressions instantly. They both looked at Shalan and couldn't say another word for a moment.
At this time, Shalan turned around and looked at Sally, who had stopped hitting her at some point, and said calmly, "Sally, did he only hit you a few times?"
Hearing this, Sally looked at Shalan, then at Vanessa and her son, who were standing at the door of the basement with pale faces. She gritted her teeth and swung the thin bamboo stick at the wretched middle-aged man again. Soon, the wretched middle-aged man's wailing for mercy was heard again in the basement, making Vanessa and her son's faces slowly turn pale.
