Chapter 756
Armand tensed up for a split second but quickly regained his demeanor. “Some drunk chick threw herself at me when I came over. I'm guessing that's when she got her perfume on me,” he elaborated, sounding defeated. “There are cameras around. You can check them out.”
As a woman herself, Charlotte knew how quickly the smell of perfume could transfer over and linger on one's clothing.
Seemingly believing his words, she calmed down slightly—only to then notice the man's lip.
It looks like someone just bit it!
“So, are you going to tell me that it's the same woman who bit your lip?” she demanded while scrutinizing the injury, looking as though she could explode at any moment.
Armand was stumped.
The entire room fell silent as everyone was petrified by Charlotte's interrogation.
Being the first to compose himself, Evan hurriedly walked over and facepalmed upon noticing the man's injured lip. He could obviously guess what his friend had just been up to.
I shouldn't have called Charlotte over.
“You see, we were just playing a round of Pass the Paper, but Jerry accidentally bit his own lip!” he exclaimed, trying to spin the perfect lie.
He then turned to everyone else there. “You all saw that happen too, right, guys?”
“Yeah! That's right!” Some of them quickly nodded in agreement while waving some playing cards at Charlotte. “See? The cards are still here!”
Yet, Charlotte sneered. “Do you guys take me for an idiot?”
“No,” Evan replied sheepishly.
The woman then turned to Armand and was about to say something when she looked down and noticed his bare fmger.
