Joseph was greeted by Sheryn standing outside when he lifted the flap of the tent.

His expression turned grim. “Is there anything I can help you with?”

Sheryn stared at him pitifully with wide eyes. “Mr. Field, I know I’m just a girl from the village, but… I don’t think Ms. Lynch should’ve bullied me like that.”

“Oh?” Joseph raised his eyebrows as he stared at her. “How did Lottie bully you?”

“She said… I’m a country bumpkin and not suited to come and take care of you, Mr. Field. She asked me to keep my distance from you.” As she said that, Sheryn held up her hands and rubbed her eyes, looking as though she was upset. Stubbornly but proudly, she added, “Mr. Field, I’m here to apologize to you. I’ll leave right away.”

“Is that so?” Joseph remained expressionless.

Secretly thrilled when she saw that Joseph did not scold her, Sheryn continued to slander Charlotte.

“I was helping in the medical bay with her. My arms were sore and tired from lifting patients. She thought I was bad at lifting patients and said that I wasn’t doing it properly and was causing everyone trouble.” The more Sheryn talked, the more aggrieved she sounded. “I’m sorry, Mr. Field… I shouldn’t have told you all these…”

“Then shut up.” Joseph could not bear to continue listening to her, and a glint of annoyance flashed across his eyes. Suddenly, his head started to hurt, and he held a hand to his forehead.
