Dear Soldier, Put Your Gun Down

Chapter 19 You Murdered Benjamin’s Only Child

Herman dashed over to the dining table and saw the plate of salmon. Looking bleak, he asked, “Mrs. Snider, why did you feed General Snider with this?”

He then whirled around to admonish Karen and Amber, “Don’t the two of you know that General Snider can’t have salmon?”

Looking aggrieved, Karen muttered, “I tried to inform Mrs. Snider just now, but General Snider…”

“Keep the excuses to yourself! The two of you will be punished for the blunder!”

Colors drained from Karen and Amber’s faces at once. As military rules applied to those who worked at the manor too, Karen and Amber knew they would end up being black and blue.

Winona assumed that Matt did not like the taste of salmon, so she was just curious to see whether he would eat it for her. She did not expect he would suffer such a serious allergic reaction to it.

“Herman, this is my fault. Karen and Amber have nothing to do with it,” Winona said.

Herman spoke in a cold tone, “Anyone who violates the military rules has to be punished accordingly. Mrs. Snider, I think you should go and check on General Snider.”

Winona scurried to the bathroom where Matt was vomiting so badly that he was suffering from mild muscular spasms. She crouched down and patted his back soothingly. “Matt, I’m sorry,” she apologized.

After puking everything in his stomach out, Matt dunked his head into a basin filled with cold water. He straightened up several seconds later and wiped his face dry with a towel.

“This isn’t your fault.”

Even after all those years, he still couldn’t conquer the fear.

Winona grabbed one of his arms. “Matt, please tell me what this is all about.”

With a faint smile, he replied, “A salmon bone stuck in my throat when I was a boy. I’ve been traumatized ever since then.”

Winona found it hard to believe a tough man like Matt would be bothered by such a trivial matter. However, there was nothing she could do since he was not ready to tell her the truth.

“Why did you put it into your mouth just now if you can’t have it?”

Matt pulled her to his arms and said, “I will never reject anything from you.”
