The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 369 Just Go Away

Charlotte turned her head aside, unable to hold back her tears. Sky was her and William's firstborn, and they had poured so much care and love into raising him.

Later, when she had Lincoln, Hector, Timothy, and Mason, Sky had always been a responsible older brother.

Especially with Emma. Sky practically doted on her like a father, taking care of her every need. He clearly treasured Emma most among the whole family. Now, that became the very reason he made such a grave mistake.

"It's my fault for not teaching him well," Charlotte said in a choked voice. "I can't shirk my responsibility as his mother. I relied too heavily on Sky and neglected to educate Emma properly."

"This has nothing to do with you," William said, pained by the sight of his wife blaming herself for someone else's mistake.

"Don't let this weigh you down. Sky and Emma are adults. They knew what they were doing. If they make mistakes, they should pay the price. We can't keep covering for them their whole lives.

"My dear, don't blame yourself anymore. Don't waste tears on those two. What we need to do now is check on Sophia. She's the biggest victim here, the one who suffered most."

His words shifted Charlotte's attention. "Yes, you're right. We need to go see Sophia and do our best to make it up to her."

She wiped her eyes. "Sweetie, if there's anything you need, call us at once. Don't worry. Your dad and I won't help Sky or Emma. Sky should pay the price. Maybe some time in jail will clear his head."

"Okay. Thank you, Mom." Natalie stepped forward and hugged Charlotte. "Don't be too hard on yourself."

"I won't," Charlotte said, hugging her back. "Your dad and I will head to the hospital now to see Sophia. You get some rest."

"Alright."

Charlotte asked Gorge to get many supplements ready. Then, she and William left.
