Dear Soldier, Put Your Gun Down

Winona gazed coldly at the woman at her feet and bent down to remove her face mask. Landing a resounding slap on the woman’s face, she said with despise, “Sharon Winston, it seems like you have never really improved yourself. I actually fancy an enemy like you. I like how stupid and fake you are. More often than not, you can put yourself through hell without my doings!”

Sharon was in great pain but managed to hiss through gritted teeth, “What do you have in your pocket? He is only a general! Someone like him will be dragged down the position sooner or later because of his shitty attitude! By then, we’ll see who’s the last one standing!”

“Well, at least I am not disowned by my own family like you!”

Sharon, fuming with anger, roared, “All of this happened thanks to you! I am the one Benjamin Larson loves, and sooner or later, he will have me back by his side!”

“Oh really? It seems like you are not only stupid but a moron who thinks that everyone else is as foolish as you. Benjamin is a smart man—how could he not realize that the child in your womb isn’t his?”

“That is impossible! Otherwise, why would he choose me over you?”

Winona looked at her sympathetically and said, “It’s merely because you’re a daughter of the Winston. Even if it wasn’t you, he’d willingly marry any other Winston lady.”

These cruel truths were like daggers that tore Sharon’s heart apart. All these years, she had secretly hidden her love for Benjamin deep in her heart. Seeing that he took her as his wife, she had thought that he had at least some feelings for her. But their marriage proved otherwise. He had always been indifferent towards her and didn’t even care to take a second look at her. He didn’t even speak up for her when her mother-in-law chased her out of the house.

She stared at Winona furiously, “It’s because of you—bitch! Had it not been for you, I would be with him now!”

Winona roughly grabbed her chin and asked, “Sharon, what do you know?”

“Haha…that you are no Winston—but some bastard!”

Slap!

Winona gave her a sharp slap and gripped her neck tightly.

“Did you have anything to do with my mother’s death? You were at the scene as well. Did my mother really fall off the stairs herself? Or are the Winston's trying to hide something?”

A gloomy look flashed through Sharon’s eyes but she quickly suppressed it and answered calmly, “It was nobody’s fault that she wanted to retrieve the glass ball from the balcony for Aileen! It couldn’t have been that someone forced her to die, right?”
