Chapter 0275

Charlotte's sudden act stunned everyone in the room, catching them completely

off guard.

Suzy froze for several seconds before snapping back to reality. She rushed forward, snatching the knife from Charlotte's hand and grabbing tissues from the table to press against the wound.

"Leave me alone!" Charlotte swatted Suzy's hands away, her voice trembling with emotion.

Suzy didn't respond, instead forcing her hands back onto the wound to stop the bleeding Charlotte shoved her away again, weaker this time.
