Chapter 91 Punishment.

Smellie wiped away the coldness in his eyes, lowered his head, and looked like he was being bullied and didn't dare to say a word.

Chesterton didn't expect that Lu Xia would appear here with Mrs. Raffield. This was the backyard of the Raffield Manor. On weekdays, apart from the flower farmers who took care of the garden, few people came here.

For a moment, his ferocious expression froze on his face, and he completely lost control of his expression.

Cheno was frightened to his knees. He was the youngest male in the family and had failed twice in the gene fusion process. He was not sure whether he would become a "defective product" like his second brother in the future, so he had always lived cautiously. When Smellian was around, although his eldest brother looked down on him, he also treated him as air. Since his second brother became the consort of Duke Luxia, he was the only one left in the family. Without a "punching bag", his eldest brother no longer despised him.

Mrs. Raphaelde's blood pressure soared due to the scene before her. Just now she was confidently boasting to Duke Luxia that the children in her family had a harmonious relationship, but in the blink of an eye, Chesterton pressed Smellian against the wall and bullied him!

He simply threw her face on the ground and trampled on it.

"Chesterton, what are you doing!" Situations like this actually happen in every family. It's not unusual for gene-fused individuals to bully their 'defective' brothers.

But this kind of thing can never be made public, let alone happen in front of Duke Lu Xia!

Even if Smellian was a "defective" male, he was still a member of Duke Luxia's mansion. Chesterton's actions were completely an insult to Duke Luxia.

Mrs. Raphaeld couldn't imagine what Duke Luxia's attitude would be next. They had just had a good chat in the study, and Duke Luxia was even interested in cooperating with their family to deepen their relationship.

In order to show her hospitality as a host, she invited Duke Lu Xia to see her estate. Who would have thought that her good husband would prepare such a unique surprise for her!

"Mother, please listen to my explanation..." Chesterton lost his previous arrogance and finally showed fear on his face.

Lu Xia didn't look at Chesterton, who was about to kneel down in fear, but shouted to Smellian who was standing there: "Come here, Smellian."

Hearing Lu Xia's call, Smelian walked over: "Madam..."

His voice was a little hoarse. Lu Xia frowned when he heard it: "Don't speak yet, raise your head."

Smelian fell silent and raised his head obediently. Because of this action, Lu Xia could clearly see the red handprint on Smelian's white neck.

This is enough to prove that Chesterton had committed the murder.

Lu Xia's eyes turned cold: "Mrs. Raphaelde, please ask a doctor for Smellian. The wound on his neck needs to be treated."

How could Mrs. Raphaeld dare to say no? Not to mention that Lu Xia just wanted a doctor, even if she wanted a ancestor, she would have to invite him: "I'll ask someone to arrange it right away. Smellian, can you go down and rest first?"

Mrs. Raphaeld didn't even notice that the tone she used when speaking to Smellian now had a hint of cautious flattery.

Smellian did not respond to Mrs. Rafaeld's words. Instead, he looked at Lu Xia and whispered, "I want to stay here."

Lu Xia nodded. Smellian's neck injury wasn't serious, so it wouldn't be a problem to deal with it later. He might stay here and watch her deal with Chesterton. That way, maybe the next time he encountered trouble, he would know how to resist!
"Mrs. Rafaeld, your son has done something like this. How do you want to deal with it? Smellian is my man now. He has returned to his own home and has to endure the bullying of his brothers. Is this a sign of dissatisfaction with my Duke Luxia Mansion?"

"How could that be? Of course not. I never thought Chesterton would be so possessed as to do such a thing. Can I ask him to apologize to you? Come here now!" Mrs. Raffield yelled at Chesterton who was already kneeling there.

"The one he should apologize to is Smellian, not me. The one who was truly hurt is not me, but Smellian. The fact that he could do such a thing today is enough to prove what kind of life Smellian had lived at home in the past. That's why he has no scruples. He even bullied Smellian in such a short time after he came home today. I didn't expect that the male son of the Raffield family would be so rampant. What gives you the right? Is it because you are a gene fusion?"

Lu Xia's voice was not loud, but every word was piercing. Chesterton's face was pale and his mind was even a little dazed. He didn't dare to think about what punishment was waiting for him next, but he knew very well that this matter would definitely not end well.

It is obvious that Duke Lu Xia is going to stand up for Smellian today.

"I was wrong. I'm sorry, Smellian. I won't do it again. Please forgive me just once, okay? I really know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again, I won't dare to do it again!" Chesterton knelt on the ground like a dead dog. There was no pride, contempt, or arrogance on his face anymore. He looked miserable and ugly.

Mrs. Raffield looked at Chesterton with mixed feelings. He was the only gene fusion patient in the family. She had originally hoped to find a good in-law, but now it seemed that was all in vain.

"Smelian, whether you forgive him or not, just consider your own wishes." Lu Xia looked at the silent Smelian, thinking that he was worried about the Rafaeld family and didn't dare to speak.

In fact, Smelian's heart was soft at this moment. He had seen how Lu Xia defended Grace, but he never expected that one day Lu Xia would defend him in the same way.

It seemed that where she was, he didn't need to worry about anything, because she was the light.

"I don't want to forgive." These five simple words sealed Chesterton's fate.

Lu Xia nodded. "Okay, then I won't forgive him. Madam Rafaeld, you can handle this matter. I hope to give Smellian an explanation. As both of us are members of the Rafaeld family, I don't think you will show favoritism."

Mrs. Raffield understood that Chesterton was completely hopeless: "I will contact Xiongde Academy and take him there for discipline. If he can't be taught well at home, there will always be other places that can teach him well."

Although Lu Xia didn't know how Xiongde Academy specifically controlled these males, he knew very well that it was not a good place.

Such punishment should be very important for males.

She didn't agree to it, but looked at Smelian: "Is this arrangement okay?"

Smellian nodded: "Okay."

Chesterton was completely depressed after hearing this. He knew that he was finished.

Seeing that the matter had been handled, Lu Xia spoke again in a much softer tone: "Don't worry, Madam Rafaeld, this incident will not affect our cooperation. I hope you don't blame Smellian for not forgiving me. After all, he was the one who suffered the injustice first."

"I understand. If anyone is to blame, it's Chesterton himself."
