Getting Justice for Emily

Two weeks have passed an Charles have been set free from being grounded ,he hated his sister for going to the lessons, but he especially hated Emily for knowing how to read Japanese and impressing his parents.

Gina has been keeping an eye on Emily since she told her about Charles .

When Emily went to give Master Charles his milk , she would wait outside the door to make sure Emily was safe .

Charles called Emily to his room to clean his shoes for going out, Emily came in and started wiping the dust off his expensive shoe not knowing that Charles had sneaked in a pair of scissors through the help of a maid , he had also cut a hole through his shoes so that he could frame Emily.

'The stage is set , now let the show begin ' Charles said in his mind , and cockly smirked.

Emily was almost through with cleaning the shoe when her pinky finger accidentally slipped under his shoe creating a hole, Emily gasped in horror.

"What have you done?" Master Charles voiced out clearly.

"I ..... Ummm ...I'm really sorry, it was an accident, I swear ." Emily said.

But all that was to no avail because Master Charles was eager to get his revenge anyhow he wants.

"Guards .... Guards, thanks this maid to my parents, now." Master Charles said.

Immediately two guards dragged Emily out of Master Charles room and was heading for the garden where Mr and Mrs Young are.

Meanwhile, Mr and Mrs Young was enjoying their usual evening breeze when the guards brought crying Emily to them .

"Please let me go , I didn't tear it , I swear "

Emily cried as they neared the Young's couple.

The Young's couple was known for their intolerance for damages done to their properties.

"What happened" Mr Young calmly asked.

Charles that was silently following them spoke up .

"Father, I asked this filthy maid here that you assigned to us to clean my shoes, but because she didn't want me to come out, she cut my shoes on purpose.

"Emily... "He beckoned her to speak.

"It's not true sir, I don't know how it got there, I swear I didn't tear it" Emily cried.

"Sir , Emily is lying, she did it , I saw her " one guard falsely accused her, supporting his master Charles.

"Emily, for damages done to our property, you will receive thirty strokes of the whip". Mr Young said, but in his heart he decided to investigate it more.

The guards dragged Emily and tied her to a wooden table and started whipping her , Emily's screams could be heard almost

throughout the mansion . When it was twenty whips though, Master Charles wanted to whip her the remaining ten , Mr Young was sceptical at first but later agreed, Charles was fifteen years old while Charlotte was ten years old, just like Emily .

Charles collected the whip from the guards and hit it on Emily's back, she made no sound, he hit it the second and the third time but nothing.

Mr Young signaled the guard to check her , because they were whipping her back.

He put his ear near her heart to check if she was still breathing , unfortunately she was not.

They quickly untied her and took her to the infirmiry, where the family doctor checked on her .

Meanwhile Mr Young sent his personal guard to conduct a silent search on Charles room , after conducting a diligent search , they found a pair of scissors and some parts of his shoes under his bed. He and other guards took the evidence and left, while a maid entered to take the scissors that master Charles sent her to take. She searched the whole room but didn't see anything, she thought master Charles had disposed of it so she left the room after arranging it .

The guards left to report to Mr Young and when he was told, he felt very bitter and guilty towards Emily.

He was very angry towards Charles and swore to punish him severely.

Mr Young went to check up on Emily, he told the doctor to treat her very well.

He then went to Charles room and sat on his bed "why did you do that ?" he calmly asked .

"Do what father?" Charles asked.

"You know what you did, better speak up " Mr Young said.

"Father I really don't understand what you mean "Charles said fidgeting.

"Ok then, watch this" Mr Young said, bringing out a laptop for him to watch.

Charles eyes widened when he saw that , he didn't know that they was a hidden camera in his room.

"I have already fired that maid for your information"Mr Young said.

"I have thoughtfully decided that you will school abroad and return only when you are through, that is your punishment for going against my order and framing a maid for something she didn't do , you are leaving tomorrow evening,get ready " Mr Young said.

Charles nodded with tears in his eyes, he was going to leave his family here , the thought was overwhelming.

Mr Young left his room so he could think over it .
