Look at him now. Not only did he ignore that fact, but he was hugging Sheryn.
Now he's in front of me, smiling and looking so handsome. Ugh! I'm so angry!
I... I'm not jealous. I don't even like him! I like...
Suddenly, she realized it had been a while since she had thought of Lochlan.
Uncle Lochlan... For a moment, Charlotte was in a daze.
She used to think that she had a secret crush on Lochlan. However, Kate had crushed that fantasy of hers.
After that, a perfect and talented woman like Olivia appeared, and Charlotte finally woke up from her dream.
What about now? Why do I feel anxious and annoyed when I saw Sheryn hugging Joseph? I feel sad and bitter about it too.
I... What's wrong with me?
Her heart began racing, and she did not dare to look into Joseph's eyes.
It was undeniable that he was handsome and had a good family background.
Fae and James also treated her well.
What if... they find out that there's something going on between me and Joseph? Will they be like Mrs. Fraser and kick me out? Mum is so good to me. I can't let her down.
Charlotte said stubbornly, “You think too much. You're just a brother to me.”
As for the kiss we shared when he was asleep, I'll just treat it as an accident.
However, when she thought of how Joseph would be with other women in the future, and she would only be an onlooker at the side, she felt her heart ache that she wanted to cry.
She held back the sadness in her heart and started to walk away. However, she had barely taken two steps when she felt a stinging pain in her ankle. She held onto a tree by the side of the road and looked at her foot.
At that moment, Joseph suddenly squatted in front of her. “Hold tight onto the tree.”
As soon as he said that, he lifted her right leg and swiftly took off her rain boot. He stared at the swollen ankle and said, “You sprained it. It's probably injured, but I'm unsure if you broke any bones. We better hurry to the medical bay.”
