Chapter 238
Carlisle deliberately aimed the bottle toward an open area to avoid hitting anyone.
One of the elderly women, puffing up with pride, boasted to the others, “I don’t know how many of those
like that young couple we saw that I’ve lectured. What future can they have without focusing on what’s
Important at such a young age?”

Just then, a splash of water landed near her, splattering onto the ground with a startling crash.
“Is it raining?” she muttered, touching her head, only to find her hand covered in black ink.
Realizing she was targeted, she turned toward Carlisle with a glare.
“You delinquent! You’re in big trouble now!” she shouted, advancing toward him.
Carlisle threw another water bottle, but as the woman covered her head and crouched down, the bottle
