The sound of someone being dragged across the floor roughly reached Charlotte’s ears just seconds later as Ben hauled Wesley out of the office.
Wesley refused to give up. “Mr. Nacht…please…I’m your most loyal worker!”
Charlotte panicked when the footsteps approached the door, and Yolanda swooped in to save her at that very moment. “Charlotte! What are you doing here?”
Charlotte grabbed Yolanda by the arm and tried to make a run for it, only to freeze in place when the door to the office opened behind her.
“What are you doing here?” Ben asked, surprised.
Charlotte turned around to see Wesley, clad in the security guard uniform, kneeling on the ground with Ben yanking on his collar. Wesley’s hair was in a mess, and he looked like a shaggy, abused dog.
“Charlotte Windt!” Wesley screeched. “Are you here to watch me suffer after ruining my life?”
“Mr. Holt?” Yolanda said, taken aback by the scene. “What are you doing, Mr. Ben?”
“That’s none of your business! Get out of the way!” Ben barked, dragging Wesley along with him.
Ben grimaced and tugged at Wesley’s collar to drag him away.
“Charlotte Windt! I’m going to kill you!” Wesley suddenly yelled, pulling a dagger out of nowhere and charging towards Charlotte.
Charlotte tried to sidestep his attack, but someone pushed her from behind, making her fall to the ground.
Wesley took this chance to pin her down and drive the blade of his dagger into her shoulder, making her scream out loud.
Blood began to pour from her wound onto the ground as Ben rushed forward to subdue Wesley.
“Go away!” Wesley yelled, locking Charlotte in a chokehold and pointing his dagger at Ben. “Come any nearer and I’ll turn her into a corpse!”
