Dear Soldier, Put Your Gun Down novel Chapter 85

Although Hazel was so angry that her chest hurt, once she thought that Christopher might be the president of Coscana, she suppressed her anger and forced a smile. “Elizabeth, Sharon is an extraordinary girl. Besides this, she only has Benjamin in her heart. To me, she is the best daughter-in-law of the Larson family. So how can I afford to lose her?”

Elizabeth snapped, “When my daughter had an accident, you old thing hasted to severed your family's connection with her. When she had a miscarriage, you not only did not comfort her, but also beat her all over. I remember all these things! When I become the first lady, I will settle the score with you!”

Hazel could no longer hold back her anger and shouted, “Elizabeth, don’t go too far. You think I don’t know that your daughter is pregnant with someone else’s child! Since Sharon did that kind of disgraceful thing, if not for her begging and pleading as well as for our two families having been friends for generations, I would have driven her out long ago! You want a divorce, right? Okay! Hurry up and take your slut away. We don't want a disgrace to our Larson family!”

She picked up the hot tea on the table and poured it over towards Elizabeth.

“Shit! Hazel, you will regret it!” Elizabeth fixed her hair and then stomped out of the Larson's house on her high heels with her head up. As soon as she became the first lady, she would get even with Hazel. By that time, she would force Hazel to do whatever she demanded. Thinking about this, Elizabeth was in a good mood and instructed her driver, “Go to the sanatorium to pick up Miss Winston.”

When Sharon saw that it was Elizabeth who came to pick her up, she showed some disappointment in her eyes. “Why did not Benjamin come?”

Elizabeth’s eyes flickered and then she changed the topic, “Soon I will be the first lady of Coscana and you will be the president’s daughter. As a noble lady, you can choose whatever man you like.”

Sharon replied, “Mom, I want nobody other than Benjamin!”

Hazel immediately felt annoyed, “How can you be so shortsighted? Soon we will be living in the presidential palace. Considering your father’s status, you have to behave like a president’s daughter! One day Benjamin will kneel in front of you and lick your boots!”

Sharon simply said, “Mom, I love him.”

“Forget it. Let’s go home,” Elizabeth said.

Sharon said, “Mom, do you know who I want to see the most right now?”

“It's not me? You heartless girl.”

“It’s Winona! I heard that Matt Snider was most likely the one who assassinated the president, so I guess she is having a hard time now,” Sharon said.

Elizabeth wanted to tell her the truth, but once she thought of Christopher’s instructions, she simply muttered, “Forget it. I feel sick when I see that damn Winona!”

Maybe Winona had already been taken to the police station for investigation, or maybe she had already been shot to death by Abram Cohen’s bodyguards.

Sharon walked straight to the car without waiting for Elizabeth and asked the driver to drive towards the Snider family manor. Soon she would be the president’s daughter while Winona was just a target of the public. So she had to take advantage of this opportunity to trample Winona underfoot!

Elizabeth was so angry that she stomped her foot. “Silly girl! You will get nothing if you go!”

At this moment, Winona happened to go back to the manor to fetch a few changes of clothes. After she packed everything up, she put on her sunglasses and facemask and drove away quietly from the back door of the manor. Accidentally, her car met with Sharon’s car.

Sharon who was so sharp-eyed immediately recognized her and instantly told the driver, “Go after her! That bitch is Winona!”

The driver hurriedly drove after Winona. Though Winona realized something wrong and tried to turn around, she was blocked by Sharon’s car. Soon Sharon stepped out of the car with a condescending smile. “Winona, did you ever see this day coming?”

Winona knew the nature of her sister who was just like a rabid dog. She had to let Sharon bark whatever she wanted until she was too tired to continue. Otherwise, Sharon would chase after her all the way. Now it was a critical time and Winona did not want to expose herself so as to affect Matt’s plans. So she walked out from her car and sneered, “Ah, it is you, a psychopath.”

Sharon gritted her teeth. She simply did not understand it. It was Winona who was a target of all, but she did not show a trace of wretchedness. Instead, Winona seemed quite at ease, which made her jealous and anxious. “Winona, it’s not too late if you beg me.”

Winona laughed out loud as if she had heard a joke. “Miss Winston, you are taking yourself so seriously. It is still uncertain whether Christopher could get the presidency or not. So I wonder where your courage comes from.”

Sharon thought she was just jealous and instantly snorted coldly, “In Coscana, who else can compete with Dad? Is it your good husband Matt? I am afraid that he is already under the control of the president's bodyguards right now. The reason you are not in jail right now is because you are still my father’s nominal daughter!”

Winona could not help but applaud. “I have to admire your stupid imagination. Well, it’s a pity that I don’t have time to play with you.”

She then sat back in the car and dialed Herman’s number. “I met a rabid dog. Help me deal with it.”

Before Matt’s plan was implemented, she could not expose herself to outsiders, or she would lose everything.

At this moment, Sharon, who was angered, drove her car like crazy, rushing straight towards Winona!

Winona sneered. Sharon was never her match. She instantly steered her car to a different direction, heading straight towards the Dragonhead River. A perfect plan suddenly came to her mind. Maybe she did not need to bother Herman this time.

When she was close to the river, Sharon’s car was close at heel. Winona made a sharp turn by spinning the steering wheel. Because Winona's car was blocking her view, Sharon did not see the gap in the guardrail and it was too late for her to brake. So instantly, she fell into the river together with her car.

The Dragonhead River was the moat of Villa Manor and few people came here. Since there were layers of tree, nobody would know that a car fell off.

She stood at the riverside, watching Sharon in the car struggling. Sharon smashed the window and desperately climbed out, trying her best to swim towards the shore. But just as she touched the low guardrail on the shore, Winona pried her fingers from the guardrail one by one. As someone who was on the verge of death, Sharon felt desperation.

“Sister, please spare me. I dare not do it again,” Sharon pleaded.

Winona just continued her movement, saying in a ruthless tone, “Such a vicious woman like you should have died long ago. When you killed her, did you ever think that she used to hug you, sing lullabies to you, and be so tender and loving to you?”
