Riches in Disguise

Chapter 25

Charlotte jumped to her feet suddenly. She grabbed a doll from the tabletop and hurled it at me.

Instinctively, I caught the doll. In a helpless voice, I asked, "What did I do to you this time?"

"What did you do? If it weren't for you, would I have left like that last night? If it weren't for you, would I have been in a bad mood, or have splashed that drink on him? All of this is because of you!"

After saying that, Charlotte buried her face on the table and wailed.

In that instant, all the women in the dorm room shot fierce glares at me.

I felt extremely helpless. This ended up being my fault?

Besides, if we wanted to pursue the real culprit, that would be Lina, not me.

However, as I was about to voice out, I noticed that Lina was also among the group of women. But, she looked a little haggard. It seemed like she wasn't doing that well mentally.

So, I chose to keep quiet.

Matthew stepped in front of me and tried to mediate the situation. He sighed. "There's no use saying all these now. We should all just think of ways to help Charlotte out."

Liam mustered up his courage and suggested, "If nothing works, just call the cops."
