The day quickly turned into an evening. Corinne arrived as she came to prepare
dinner, and when she walked over, Shirley could see that her sharp gaze was
filled with resentment.
“I'll stay and attend to Mr. Flintstone tonight. You can leave,” Corinne said to her.
Shirley frowned. “The captain didn't tell me to leave.”
Zacharias also didn’t instruct her to leave. She couldn't leave her post without
authorization. “Hah! You think you're so important, huh?"
Corinne mocked before heading toward the kitchen. “Mr. Flintstone’s nephew is
also here. You need to cook for two people.” Shirley reminded her.
Corinne didn’t say anything, but she would follow Shirley's reminder. Tonight, she
hoped to be the one Zacharias chose to stay in the mansion.
While Shirley was standing guard at the door, someone suddenly tapped her
shoulder. She reached back almost instinctively and grabbed the person's hand
before twisting his arm behind his back.
“Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!” Tony's startled cry came through. Upon seeing that it was
him, she immediately released him and warned him, “Don’t do this ever again.”
After experiencing Shirley's prowess, he chuckled. “Pretty, you've got some skills.
Can you teach me? If you do, next time I get into a fight, I won't get beaten so
badly.”
Shirley disliked his glib tongue and said sternly, “Mr. Flintstone, please mind your
words.”
“You didn’t tell me your name, so I had to address you as “Pretty,” Tony reasoned.
Shirley continued standing straight while ignoring his teasing.
“Ah! I'm exhausted. Writing a thousand words of self-critique is no joke. My uncle
is so old- fashioned. He still makes me write self-critique in this day and age,”
Tony complained as he stretched lazily.
“Oh! Someone’s cooking?” Tony dashed to the kitchen. In no time, he returned to
Shirley before saying, “Are you two my uncle's 24/7 personal bodyguards?”
“Yes,” Shirley replied.
“Am I also under your protection too?”
“No,” Shirley replied coldly. “You can't treat me poorly. You must protect me along
with my uncle.” Tony snorted. Then, his gaze wandered mischievously over
Shirley. “If I encounter danger tonight, can you protect me up close?”
After saying that, he saw her fair hands clasped together. He reached out and
intended to touch them. Shirley's eyes flashed with anger. She grabbed his arm,
pressed him toward the ground, and pinned him down as if he were a criminal,
with his hands still in a humiliating position behind his back.
“If you offend me again, I won't be polite,” Shirley warned him sternly. She wasn't
the type to stay silent when someone took advantage of her. Anyone who dared
to touch her would face a grim fate.
Tony was in pain and sweating when he saw a tall figure coming down from the
second floor. He called out without dignity, “Uncle Zacharias, save me.”
Upon seeing Zacharias coming down, Shirley immediately let go of Tony and
resumed her guarding stance.
“Uncle Zacharias, she bullied me.” Tony immediately played the victim.
“You can't even beat a girl, and you're complaining?” Zacharias remarked
disapprovingly. Tony became somewhat annoyed. “Uncle Zacharias, can you
beat her?”
Zacharias didn’t answer the question. “Behave if you don’t want to be kicked out.”
