Henry was the sole sergeant to supervise my duties here in the military camp, but many times, I was so exhausted that I nearly fainted.
While I was doing all my duties, Henry just sat aside, ate snacks and lashed out at me when he was displeased.
As much as I wanted to be lazy, I also didn't want my skin to be torn apart. Well, I wasn't anxious over that. All I thought was he would just be furious and burst out his frustration on me and would also halt hitting me once he calmed down. However, he kept refusing to help with the laundry. He even didn't hesitate to use the whip, causing my skin to split open.
Everyone thought they had hit too hard and feared General Smith, my stepbrother, would punish them. However, Henry smiled scornfully, showing no fear.
Henry exclaimed, "The general confessed that he was killed because of this woman's disobedience. Come on, he won't chase after us! It will never happen!"
That was one of the reasons I worked harder all day long to avoid being hurt by them.
