Chapter 491
She had forgotten everything from before Uncle Lochlan brought her home.
She also dreamt of that terrible woman.
Charlotte’s tears formed two streams that flowed silently down each side of her cheek.
She stretched out her trembling hands and stroke her own cheeks.
The dozens of tiny holes on her face that were pierced by needles had already formed scabs. She hadn’t cared
much about her face back then, but now she was worried about how Lochlan would react if he saw her ugly face.
She couldn’t imagine what it would be like.
Uncle Lochlan would definitely despise me, right?
I’m so ugly right now that I don’t deserve to stay with Uncle Lochlan anymore... I’m a hideous monster.
My face... All the pain and sorrow she kept bottled up instantly burst out of her heart. At that moment, she wished
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe could rip her own face off. She wanted to remove all those horrendous scars.
Suddenly, someone from the outside opened the room door.
Joseph Field’s tall figure stepped in. He glanced at her hesitatingly and said, “What’s wrong? I heard a cry just now.”
Charlotte stared at him with tears in her eyes. The concern on the man’s face didn’t appear to be fake.
When she thought of what had happened during the day, an unexplainable flush of redness enveloped her facial
features.
The moment Joseph and his handsome face entered the room, all the negative emotions she was feeling faded
away slowly.
Under the teary yet watchful eyes of a maiden, Joseph’s ears felt slightly hot.
Although he was usually loquacious and spiteful, he didn’t have any experience when it came to dealing with girls.
This was especially true when it came to the topic of being seen naked... Whatever... it just means getting looked
at... He was a man, so there was no harm in being seen.
There was an inexplicable throbbing in his chest as he thought about how his innocence was taken away by this girl.
Doesn’t this mean that she owes me some compensation? I heard from mother that she can’t speak? Is she mute?
Since this mute is crying, I’ll postpone the compensation for next time.
Charlotte didn’t know that Joseph had already noted it down in his heart.
This was the first time Master Joseph had ever tried to coax a girl. He pulled out a lollipop from his pocket. It was
only worth fifty cents, which was half the price of a normal candy bar.
He then handed it over to Charlotte clumsily. “For you.”
Charlotte stared blankly at the lollipop in front of her. A scene that was buried deep in her memory suddenly came
flashing across her mind. It was a scene with two children - a boy and a girl.
The little boy would give a lollipop to the little girl every day without fail, and he would also whisper to her, “Don’t
tell your sister. She’s really scary! She’s going to scold me for giving you candy that will rot your teeth.”
Who was the little boy? What about the little girl?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSister... Does this mean that I have a sister? Are my previous memories starting to resurface?
Charlotte’s eyes widened abruptly. She gazed at Joseph’s handsome face and fell into a daze.
Joseph, on the other hand, was holding the lollipop out the entire time. When she didn’t take the lollipop, he felt a
little embarrassed and asked, “You don’t like candy? If you don’t like it... I’ll eat it myself.”
Just when he was about to tear open the wrapper, a tender, pale hand extended outwards and snatched the lollipop
away.
“I... I’ll eat it.”
The young woman’s timid voice rang out unexpectedly, startling Joseph.
He widened his eyes in shock and scratched his ears. “You’re not mute? So you can talk?”
“Mmhmm.” Charlotte tore the wrapper away and popped the lollipop into her mouth. The sweetness of the candy
instantly filled her mouth.
She didn’t feel as bad anymore.
Her voice was soft and feminine, but because she wasn’t able to speak for several days, it was slightly husky.
However, to Joseph’s ears, it was a sound from the heavens.
Joseph, who had little to no experience getting along with girls, watched as Charlotte’s face lit up when she tasted
the lollipop. How cute, he thought to himself.
