Chapter 1921

Charmine felt off when she noticed Annabel's stare toward her. "Don't be afraid to speak up," she insisted.

Susan, however, scoffed. "You made it sound easy. Didn't you see the way Annabel looked at you? She's so afraid that she doesn't even dare to speak up! What I think is that you did something to her!" "Shut up!" Grandma Bailey had an evident glower on her face as she snapped, "Listen to Annabel! Annabel, just say whatever that happened."

Charmine looked at Annabel, wanting to verify her explanation. "Is it true, what you've said?"

Annabel said innocently, "I won't lie to you, Ms. Charmine. It is true."
