Chapter 8: 8: Punishment in the Rain

Kate smiled helplessly, "Maybe it was destiny, and Joseph has always liked the shining, sexy women like Anna. I am nothing but a boring woman like a bottom of mineral water just as he said."

"Mineral water is so healthy, though!" She was trying to cheer Kate up, "that woman stabbed you in the back when she was alive. She got what was coming to her."

"Alright, Lisa, there's no need to be angry with someone who has passed away." Kate patted her shoulder to calm her down.

The two friends talked for a while longer, and then Kate decided to go to the hospital. When she arrived, she checked in with the doctor to see how her grandmother was doing. Then Kate, stood outside of the ICU ward looking lost. Her grandma had been in a coma for two years; each day, Kate prayed she would wake up.

Overhead Kate could her thunderstorms starting to roll in. She was lost in the thoughts of the storm when her phone rang, startling her. She took her phone out and looked at the caller ID.

"What's the matter?" There was profound boredom in her cold tone when she answered.

"Take Alan to the veterinary clinic; he is sick." The caller's demand was colder than hers.

Kate asked irritably, "Didn't you warn me never to touch Alan yesterday?"

"It's different now!" Joseph seemed to be irritated by her, "If anything happens to Alan, the same thing will happen to your grandma."

"You are despicable!" Kate burst out savagely but reluctantly agreed, "I will go back and take him to the clinic right away!"

When she had Joseph's baby and got the $10,000,000, she wouldn't have to worry about the cost of her grandma's recovery and be bullied by some man.

Kate left the hospital and flagged down a taxi to rush home.

"Lady Kate, you are finally home. Alan fell ill suddenly, Lord Joseph is in Tenley City on business, so I asked him to call you. Please take Alan to see the veterinarian; you know that Alan is the only reminder that Miss White left for Lord…"

Kate took Alan from Amy's arms and left the room without saying a word.

Amy's lip twitched as she pretended to follow in a panic.

While at the clinic, Alan received a vaccine, but there were no problems when the veterinarian inspected him.

Kate and Alan arrived home to find Amy waiting for them with a smile on her face, "Amy, is something funny? If you are bored, you can take Alan out for a walk!"

Since Kate had moved into the house, Amy had done nothing but fought with her, especially when Joseph wasn't home.

"Don't play dumb with me when Joseph isn't here!" She said bluntly, "I'm still your master even if Joseph dislikes me. I'm afraid offending your boss will not be tolerated anymore!"

Hearing the seriousness in voice, Amy suddenly panicked, "La ... Lady Kate, I didn't mean to offend you. I noticed that Alan did not have much of an appetite today and thought he was seriously ill. I called Lord Joseph in a panic… I apologize if I troubled you, and I will never do it again…"

Kate had no patience for Amy; she had bullied her for so long, why should she fight back?

Kate knew that Ricky and Amy were friends, and therefore, he would not like to punish Amy. She quickly beckoned for Henry's help.

"Lady Kate, what can I do for you?" Henry asked respectfully.

"People who don't obey the rules and choice to offend their master should be taught a lesson!" Kate glanced at Amy, who looked terrified. "It's raining outside; I think you should go out in the rain since it is so hot!"

Hearing this, Amy stepped back in fright. She waved her hand and refused, "Lady, I ... I don't feel hot ..."

"Hot or not, it's not up to you!" Kate turned to Henry, "Put her out in the rain. Don't let her come in without my permission!"

"Yes!" Henry said. Kate's sudden aggressiveness surprised Henry a lot. He also knew that she didn't have any status in the family, so her courage stunned him. However, he chose to obey her request. Besides, he knew she was the boss when Joseph was not home.

Ricky tried to plead for Amy but had to bow his head or else risk being punished.

Amy couldn't believe what she had heard and began to resist, "No, Lady Kate, I'm not in good health. I can't be out in the rain..."

"Really?" Kate sneered, then looked at her aggressively, "Then it is a good opportunity to work on your immunity!"

Amy knew that Kate was determined to punish her. She snarled, "I am polite enough to call you Lady, but we all know what you are in the eyes of the Lord!"

Kate laughed instead of getting angry, "You respect me? With my permission? Why don't you complain you're unhappy with Mr. Smith or Mrs. Smith? Playing tricks won't work!"

"I... ..." Amy, of course, understood Kate's inference.

Joseph disliked her, but Cassie Smith took good care of her. No matter how arrogant Amy was, she was just a servant.

"Speechless?" Kate sneered, "You may flatter Joseph when he comes back, but stop your tricks in front of me; otherwise... you'll regret it!"

Kate had an attitude and confidence about her that Amy had never seen before.

"You, of course, can bully me while Lord is not here!" Amy complained unhappily, but she knew there was no way to avoid the punishment.

Kate watched without sympathy as Amy was pulled out into the rain.

Observing Kate's expression, Ricky cautiously said, "Lady Kate, the cook is on leave, and if Amy catches a cold, nobody will be here to cook for you."

"Do you really think any meal made by a disobedient servant is edible?" Kate asked.

All of Ricky's determination to help Amy was immediately gone.
