q“What's wrong with her?” probed Charlotte anxiously. “I'm friends with her, so I genuinely wish to know how she's doing. What exactly happened to her?”
“She...” Helen hesitated for a while but did not say anything. “This concerns her private matters, so it's not appropriate for me to reveal anything.”
“But...”
“Is that Charlotte?”
Suddenly, a weak voice sounded from the phone.
“Yes, Ms. Gold,” replied Helen.
“Pass me the phone.” Nancy asked for the phone.
Helen passed the phone to her. After that, Charlotte could hear the door closing.
“Ms. Gold?” Charlotte felt very uneasy.
“Charlotte...” Although Nancy was extremely weak, her voice was charged with hatred. “I've never done anything to let you down. In fact, I've even helped you. Why must you sabotage me like this?”
Stunned, Charlotte quickly asked, “Ms. Gold, did you misunderstand something?”
“Misunderstand?” Nancy was extremely agitated. “Do you dare to claim that you weren't at Storm Hotel last night? That you weren't in that b*stard's room?”
“I...” For a moment, Charlotte did not know how to reply.
“You know that he's a fake, so why didn't you tell me?” interrogated Nancy furiously. “Why didn't you stop him when he was about to assault me? Why did you watch me get lied to and humiliated? Why?”
With that, she burst into tears. Losing control over herself, she kept repeating, “Why? Why... Why!”
