Kendall looked at Charlotte innocently. "If Shane treated you this way, would you still like him?"

"I don't like him right now either," Charlotte replied impatiently. "We are only together because of our child."

"I don't believe you."

"Yeah, you're right. I said this in order to comfort you," Charlotte joked.

"I've already given up a lot of things for the sake of liking Rick." Kendall moved closer to Charlotte. "Can I put my head on your shoulder?" "Okay."

Kendall leaned gently against Charlotte's shoulder. She closed her eyes and her nose twitched. She said in a low voice, "I never liked anyone else before. I didn't mean to treat you guys horribly back then either. I just loved Rick and wanted to do something for him. But now that I think about it, if I had persuaded you to make peace with him at that time, I wouldn't have given up on him either..." Charlotte patted her head gently. "I've always treated you as a willful little sister who doesn't know better. In any case, I don't have any feelings for Rick. Even if you're really trying to persuade me, I won't go back to him. You don't have to worry about me. As long as you like him, don't give up. Besides, he's already agreed to be your boyfriend. If he doesn't treat you well, you should tell him."

"But I am afraid that he might hate me."

"He doesn't like you anymore. Are you still afraid of him hating you?" Charlotte laughed.

Kendall was confused for a moment, but she nodded her head anyway.

It was like a person was afraid of snakes and got frightened by ropes. Even if they dispose of any rope they stumble upon, they will still run into more. Since there was no way to avoid this situation, it was better to throw them into a pit full of snakes. They would either learn to handle the fear or it would become even worse. Regardless, the fear was already there and there was no use in struggling against it. Charlotte accompanied Kendall for a while before she went downstairs. Kendall thought for a moment and tried to muster up the courage to look for Rick. However, an ice-cold pair of eyes appeared in her mind...

Why was Rick, who was very gentle to everyone, so cruel to her?

Kendall couldn't figure it out, so she didn't go down and fell asleep on the sofa alone.

Not knowing how long it had been, Kendall suddenly felt that she had been picked up by someone. She struggled subconsciously and tried to escape in shock. She accidentally fell to the ground and slammed into the coffee table. It was so painful that she gritted her teeth.

"Rick!" She knew that he was the only one in the villa who would carry her this way.

"Does it hurt?" Rick came to her side and carried her again. "Don't move, I'll take you back to bed."

"If you didn't pick me up, I wouldn't have gotten hurt. What's wrong with me sleeping here? What's wrong with you? Are you sick?" Kendall glared at him. "Can you think before you act?"

Rick did not say a word as Kendall told him off. He lowered his head in silence, and the way he looked at her was a bit helpless. The way he looked at her was often very helpless.

Kendall hated the way he looked at her, so she reached out and batted him away. "Get out of my way."

"Kendall..." Rick was at a loss. "I don't know what to do. Can you teach me? Don't push me away like this." "You better stay away from me!"
