Yu Ruoxun dared not cover her face and quickly lowered her head, "Daddy, Anna knows her mistake."
Duke Charlie was ruthless; the spot on his face where he had been slapped was slowly warming, carrying a hint of stinging pain.
Yu Ruoxun's lips were broken as she endured the pain, saying, "I intended to hold Xiaoge in advance, let the maid find her, lock her in the attic, and release her after your wedding with madam was over, but... I couldn't find her."
"This time it's indeed Anna's dereliction of duty, please, daddy, punish me."
Yu Ruoxun placed herself in a very low position without much defense.
Because she knew, for someone like Duke Charlie, standing firm and taking the blow was better than arguing.
Duke Charlie rotated the Malachite Ring on his finger, suppressing a hint of uncontrollable deep anger in his voice, "You do deserve punishment, but not now."
