“You can't get away.” Arthur pressed her hand and grasped her delicate wrist. He lowered his deliberately, which made it obscene. “Everyone is in the banquet, and after the swimming competition, there will be more wonderful activities. Even if you run away, no one will come to save you. You might as well accept me and I will be gentle to you.”
“Let me go!” Charlotte shook his hand off forcefully and stepped back several steps.
What was wrong with her? Why there was no strength in her hands or legs?
Charlotte looked at her trembling fingers and her fair cheeks were getting redder and redder.
The feeling of a steady stream of hot air was rising from her abdomen. It was familiar.
Just like when she was taken away and locked in the room by Gerald!
She was drugged again?
As soon as this thought occurred to her mind, Charlotte felt extremely desperate.
“Charlotte, I tried to persuade you to be with me, but you didn't agree, so I had to do this, you know... I like you very much. As long as you are obedient today, I guarantee that no one will dare to bully you in the department. How do you think?”
With her back against the cold wall, Charlotte pinched her thigh hard to sober herself up.
She saw Arthur walking towards her, reaching out his hand to unbutton his shirt. His eyes were obscene, like the light of a wild animal in the dark room.
No......
She could not let him succeed.
Otherwise, Kennedy would feel more disgusted about her feel her more dirty!
No way!
Absolutely no!
Before Arthur came over, Charlotte pushed Arthur with all her strength.
“If you dare touch me, I'll kill you.”
Arthur thought she had no strength, but being pushed by her, he felt to the floor.
“Hasn't the drug taken effect yet? You still have the strength?”
Charlotte, “...Did you drug me?”
“Charlotte, don't blame me. The main reason is that you are too stubborn, so I have to use an unusual method.”
“You are despicable!” Charlotte bit her lower lip and said with then remaining consciousness to Arthur, “Don't you know I am with Kennedy?”
“What did you say? Mr. Kennedy?”
“Do you really think that I've been demoted because he abandoned me?” Charlotte leaned against the wall, gasping heavily and staring at him, “If he really abandoned me, how come he just demoted rather than directly fired me?”
Hearing that, Arthur was stunned and confused.
“What do you mean? Are you really with Mr. Kennedy?”
“Yes!”
To save herself, she bit her lower lip and said, “He's just angry with me. He's just trying to get angry with me by demoting me. If he really doesn't want to see me, he won't leave me. I was demoted so that he could take me back one day!”
Charlotte didn't believe these words herself, but what could she do now? In a place like this, where everyone was at a party, no one was likely to come to her rescue even if she called for help.
“Are you telling the truth?” Arthur was stunned. If it was really as Charlotte said, he couldn't touch her.
