Chapter 45: Discipline
The night was full of surprise announcements from the two sisters. The room was filled with silence. They don’t know what to say nor react because of what they learned from Juveline.
” J-uveline?” The Headmaster said as he called his daughter’s name to make sure that she said those things.
” What father?” Juveline ask to her father as she show a naive look in front of him.
” Sister, I thought you don’t want to give any support in the battle of succession?” Davina hastily asks as she shows a little panic because of what her sister said. Among the two of them Juveline had a wide range of influence and a strong support within the family.
” Davina, I also thought that we agree that we will not give any support in the battle of succession. ” Juveline said to her sister as she get her glass of water and take a sip on it.
” But sister, You are the only one who wants it and I just agree with you at first because I thought there’s no one deserving to have our support. But it all changed after I got to know Lorenzo better and heard his plan for our family.” Davina reasoned to Juveline.
” Well, my mind change like just what happened to you”
” I understand if your mind changes, Sister. But giving your support to him?” She said as she looked at Xander and frowned her face.
” It’s impossible! Sister, you will not give support to him.” She said out of disbelief.
” What’s imposibble of give support to my husband?”
All of the attention immediately shifts to Giselle as she barges in the conversation of the two sisters.
” You are out in this” Davina sharply said that makes Giselle smirk.
” Why am I out? You are talking about my husband and we are here in one table with you. And to add on that we are family and I believe family matters should be discussed with the rest of the family” Giselle fiercely said that makes Davina irritated.
” You are just new in the family, Don’t feel so high. You didn’t know anything.”
” What I didn’t know? That all of you think my husband is not worthy for the position of being the head of the family? And all of you think that Lorenzo is the righteous one? If you all think about that. Then why does this family hold the battle of succession if all of you agreed on Lorenzo? For what? Entertainment? To ridicule Xander?” Giselle said as she sat straight and leaned forward a little.
” My husband is chosen among the candidates and he proves himself to the family by building his multi-billion business without the help of this family. And because of that I believe that my husband is worthy of the support of your elder sister. Auntie Davina” She said that makes Davina feel irritated towards Giselle.
” I think we should end this dinner” The Head said as he wiped his mouth and stood up.
” The two of you will go to my office later,” Perol coldly said before he left the dining room.
Giselle fixed her hair as soon as the head walked out the room. ” Wow! The dinner was ruined because of your wife. What a feisty one you got” Leonardo teasingly said that makes Xander coldly smirk.
” The dinner was ruined before Giselle stepped in on their conversation.” Xander said before he stood up and help Giselle to stand up”
” Leaving already after ruining the dinner?”
Giselle looked at Davina and smiled.” Staying up late is bad for pregnant women” Giselle cheekily said before she left the dining room.
A loud laugh echoed in the room as soon the two left.
” I can’t believe that woman is part of the family,” Davina muttered as she looked at Lorenzo, who was laughing right now. She suddenly looked at her sister when Juveline stood up.
” Sister, Where are you going?” Davina said as she quickly stood up.
” Let’s talk first,” She added as she reached her hand.
” We will have a conversation at father office” Juveline answered. Davina suddenly feel a chill throughout her body the way Juveline answer her question.
” Is there a problem, Sister?” Davina asks out of worry because she is not used to this behavior of her sister.
” Davina, Are you forgetting something?” Juveline said as she intently looked at Davina.
” There are children in this room. Mind your action”
Davina gulps as she glances at the children who are now intently watching them.
” I’m going now, See you at father office” Juveline said before she left the room leaving Davina confuse because of her actions towards her.
” I will put the kids to bed” Chantal said as she had a heavy atmosphere in the room. And she knows that Lorenzo and Davina will have things to talk about.
Chantal quickly assisted her children to get down from their stools and after that they left the room. Leaving Lorenzo and Davina alone in the room.
” Mommy what happened earlier?” Flora innocently asks, which makes her flustered. She first took a deep breath and calmed herself before she answered her daughter’s question.
” Well, There’s a problem but it will resolve soon” She answered before she patted her daughter’s head.
While walking with her children back to their room there’s a maid running towards them out of fear.
” Madam Chantal!” The maid called her name as she immediately kneeled down and bowed her head.
” Please Help us!”She panickly said. The kids look at the maid with horrified looks because of the way she acts. It’s their first time to see a person kneeling and begging in front of their mother.
Chantal’s forehead frowned because of what the maid was doing in front of her. Specially, In front of her kids.
” What happened?” She firmly asks as she gives the children to their nanny.
” Bring them back to their rooms” Chantal calmly said to their nannies. She turned back to the maid kneeling in front of her.
” Did you not hear me? ” Chantal said to the maid. The maid suddenly trembled because of the way Chantal spoke to her at the moment. She is not used to that tone of her voice.
” Ahmmmm……..” She is sweating coldly and her mouth is starting to dry.
” Help us, Madam! ” The only thing she blurted out that made Chantal raise her right eyebrows.
” Then tell me what happened,” Chantal said before she crossed her arms.
The maid deeply bowed her head before she answered Chantal.
” Madam. Giselle, Sh-she is torturing the kitchen staff. Sh-she has a whip and Master Xander is just watching on the side” The maid said while trembling.
” Lead the way,” Chantal calmly said to the maid.
The maid quickly looked up to her face as she hastily stood up and led the way to the kitchen for Chantal. She felt a massive relief when Chantal ordered her to lead the way to the kitchen. It was a surprise when Giselle suddenly showed up in the kitchen without any announcement. And then suddenly she showed her whip and lash it on the floor that makes a loud sound across the kitchen. Luckily she escapes from Giselle before she notices her. And now she is worried about her co-workmates. When they are near the kitchen the maid quickly runs towards the door and runs inside.
” You are not getting away from this” The maid loudly said as she put her hands on her waist and stood confidently.
GISELLE LOOK AT the maid who is just getting inside the kitchen. The maid is not a worker in the kitchen. That is the reason why Giselle let her escape because there is a schedule for that servant. But seeing the maid called Chantal to report what happened she should not let that maid escape. It will be a lesson to Giselle that all the people in this house will be involved in her wrath.
” Oh, You are here?” Giselle genuinely asks as she hands her whip to her husband Xander.
Chantal looks at the employees out of shock because of what they look like right now. She looks back at Giselle who is now grinning at her.
” What did you do to them? They are full of injuries!” Chantal said to Giselle while pointing at the employees who are now kneeling and they are in a straight line. The employees’ dresses are tattered because of the whip from Giselle.
” Oh, come on! They are not injured. They are just wounded and don’t you worry they still can cook tomorrow’s food. ” Giselle seductively said that it makes the employee’s face turn red. Giselle’s seductive voice really has an effect on every person who hears it.
She looks like a sexy dungeon punisher. Who punish bad people with pain and pleasure.
” Why did you do this, Giselle? And you Xander you are seeing your wife hurting innocent people and yet you are just standing there?” Chantal said out of furiously.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
” It’s prohibited to hurt servants in this house! AND IT’S AGAINST THE LAW!” She yelled that made Giselle chuckle.
” As far as I know, You can hurt the servants if they do something bad to their masters. It’s in the family policy. And my actions are justifiable honey” Giselle said as she walked on where the head chef is located. As she gently lifts his head using her feet.
” Tell them what you just do,” Giselle said in a sultry tone of voice.
The Head chef, Gulp because of the way Giselle asks her. He is hurt but weirdly he feels so good.
” Ahmmm..” He moaned that makes Chantal face turned to red because of the erotic sound that came out from the head chef mouth. The head chef is a 50 year old man and it gives a shiver to her body.
” What did you do?” Giselle asks again.
” We purposely served low class food to the two of you and sometimes we mix it with s-spoiled food” The Head chef said that makes Giselle smirk and lightly push the head chef to the floor.
” HEAD CHEF!” All of the servants in the kitchen yelled that made Giselle chuckle out of amusement.
” Don’t worry, Chantal. I just discipline the servants here. Because it looks like no one is doing that job in this mansion. And beside that I have permission to do thanks to my husband. Because basically he will be the next head of the family.” Giselle said before she walked past Chantal and left the kitchen room.
” We will go now,” Xander said to Chantal.
” Xander, What kind of a girl do you want to stay at your side? She will be the reason for your downfall” Chantal said to Xander as she turned around to face him.
” You said before you want to be the head of this family but what is happening right now. It will be impossible” Chantal said as she smirked at Xander.
” You had a bad reputation in this family. Because of your actions before. Specially, The riot that you did because of your bad temper.” She said as she crossed her arms.
” You’re standing in this family is in the lowest down pick. Even if you are the most successful one in the family, it doesn’t change the fact that you will still be an outcast in this family” Chantal continued as she walked towards Xander.
” And the way you handle the servants in the so-called discipline that your wife did and your toleration of her. It looks like the Xander that I know is still standing in front of me” Chantal ended as she stood up straight and gave him a smug look.
Xander just stared coldly at Chantal before he gave her a sly smile.
” Before you put yourself in other business. Check first your own business because I believe there is something happening behind your back ” Xander teasingly said before he stepped forward to Chantal.
Chantal automatically steps back because of what Xander is doing. He is giving her uncomfortable feeling.
” Let’s see who will win in this game” Xander coldly said before he glanced at the head chef who is standing now. He hastily goes to the head chef as he give him a big blow in his face.
” Don’t go near my wife!” He coldly said as he blew his feist and turned his back and quietly left the room as if nothing happened.
Chantal just watches Xander leave the kitchen room and then when he finally leaves. Chantal immediately burst into laughter because of a sudden realization.
” What a b*stard!”
