"I'm sorry." Charlotte immediately took out some alcohol and bandages from the drawer. "I didn't expect this to happen."

"Sorry?" Shane chuckled. Suddenly, he clasped the back of her head, his eyes were overwhelmed with emotions. "You have a lot more to be sorry for. There are still many things you do not know."

"I..." She choked up and looked into his eyes. She was suddenly filled with guilt. She lowered her head and said, "I know you've sacrificed a lot for me so I always wanted to repay you. I'm not a hard-hearted person but Shane, that fire and old madam really made me... I'm afraid one day, I'll become one of your chess pieces and I wouldn't know it. Just like our previous marriage agreement. I can only hide and watch you leave helplessly."

"I won't leave you."

"Of course you can say that. You also said you would guarantee the interest of the Fuller family. You really looked like the perfect grandson when you helped her down the stairs just like how you are the perfect lover to me now. But Shane, do you know which you said was true or false?" Charlotte's tears rolled down her cheeks as she spoke.

She thought she could be strong enough to face the ups and downs of the mall but she immediately turned into an ordinary woman before Shane. His every move affected her heart.

Even if it was just a sentence, it would make her feel uneasy. She really didn't understand why she couldn't escape him.

"Old Madam's death was an accident. Rather than saying Christopher wanted her to die, it is better to say that she was using her death to put pressure on Christopher. I remember telling you this before." "Then, what about the fire?"

"Charlotte, do you know why I want to transfer everything under your name? I want them to know that you are in charge of everything in the family. Then they wouldn't dare to lay their hands on you and Sheryl. Meanwhile, I'll be observing their every move from behind the scenes. This is the only way to ensure your safety."

Charlotte was speechless, "I know this..."

"We can't be at the mercy of others forever. Even Avery knows to take revenge against the Stevens Family. Don't you think I would know what the Fuller family would do to you in the future?" "But you can't..." She sighed.

"If you were them, do you think they would let us and Sheryl go?"

Shane's voice was very soft and cold, but it sounded powerful.

Charlotte felt that a piece of her heart was broken at once. Her eyes welled up with tears and her voice became choked up. "I know all these but is this the only solution?"

"Do you have a better idea?"

"Can't we kill them at the mall?"

"Let them become like the Stevens Family? Their whole family was broken up by Avery so they would kill themselves one by one?"
