I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 691 Scared of Me

Charlotte felt down throughout the journey. She couldn't even perk up and she wanted to cry. She couldn't believe she was adopted, and she cursed herself for acting so childishly all this time. I was adopted, and Dad still treated me like his own. I can't believe I was this ungrateful. She promised she'd be nice to her father and stop acting like a child.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at a private estate. Charlotte got out of the car and looked around. "I thought we were going back to Jamesdon. What is this place?"

"It's getting late. We'll continue tomorrow."

"Okay." Charlotte followed the man, her head hanging low. Lachlan was already waiting in the living room, and he was talking to his men. The moment Charlotte and her brother came in, Lachlan's underling nodded and went away.

Charlotte looked at Lachlan for a moment before staring at the ground, still looking listless. "I want to sleep."

"There are rooms on the third floor. Take your pick."

After she went upstairs, Lachlan said, "What's wrong with her?"

Oscar plopped down beside Lachlan and tried his best to hold his laughter in. "I told her she was adopted."

"That's just childish. No adult would fall for that."

"I know it's childish, but she did fall for that." Oscar said, "No wonder she doesn't suspect Joseph."

Lachlan massaged his forehead. He was at a loss for words.

"But at least she will stay put. At least she won't try to run away when she sees you now."

Lachlan stood up. "We should get some sleep." He went to the second floor and paused for a moment, then he went to the third floor.
