Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon's Love

Now that Charlotte had to repeat the story in front of Arthur and Juliana, she could not lie. However, if she did not, Lucy could expose her in an instant. Of course, Charlotte did not want that. However, Lucy insisted, "Why aren't you speaking? Are you afraid? If you're afraid, I'll say it..."

"No, of course not. Everything I said is the truth. What's there to be afraid of?"

Seeing the increasingly suspicious looks from Arthur and Juliana, Charlotte gritted her teeth.

"After you were knocked out, I begged the kidnapper to spare you and take me instead. I said that I was more valuable than you, but the kidnapper even ridiculed me. Everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can ask Dad and Mom."

The cunning Charlotte only talked about the things that happened after Lucy fainted, which were indeed the same things she had said to Arthur and Juliana.

There was nothing wrong with her words, so Arthur and Juliana nodded. Charlotte smirked, but Lucy did not stop there.

"Why didn't you talk about what happened before I was knocked out? I remember that before I fainted, you gave me a vicious smile. Then, I was suddenly knocked out without any warning.

"I didn't even get a clear look at what the kidnapper looked like. I heard that kidnappers are afraid of being seen by others, let alone assassins. You must've been incredibly lucky to be able to see the assassin's face and return safely to inform Mom and Dad.

"Oh, and did you tell Mom and Dad what the assassin looked like when you asked them to rescue me? Knowing what he looked like would've made him easy to find, right?"
