Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 171

“Mom, Charlotte was infatuated hence she did such a silly thing. She knows she was wrong. Please forgive her and save her.”

As soon as she stepped into the living room, Rita heard Rose beg for mercy.

On the sofa, Amelia glanced at the man and woman who knelt on the ground and gritted her teeth, “Had I lived too long to be annoying to your eyes, that you want me to die!”

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, Amelia raised her cane and hit Mason and his wife hard.

Bang!

Bang bang!

After a few hits, Mason and his wife tremble uncontrollably.

Despite the skin on their back being ripped apart, neither of them dared to get up and held it in.

Mason choked badly, “Mom, we were wrong. I won’t complain if you beat me to death but Charlotte... If Charlotte was sentenced to jail, her life would be completely ruined.”

When she heard that Charlotte would be ruined for a lifetime, Amelia, who was originally furious, had a flash of reluctance in her eyes.

Although this reluctance disappeared quickly, it was still caught by Rose.

This was enough to prove that the old lady in the Brown family valued money and reputation, but she still cared about blood kinship in her heart.

As long as she cared, there was a glimmer of hope for change for Charlotte’s incident.

Realizing this, Rose’s dim eyes suddenly lit up.

She endured the pain and crawled to Amelia’s feet, crying, “Mom, you know that Charlotte isn’t in good health, and the conditions in the detention center are so poor... If someone made things hard for her again, I’m afraid Charlotte will not be able to survive before the sentence is even given.”

Half of Rose’s remarks were to win Amelia’s sympathy, and the other half were intentional to pull someone down.

And this time the person who was pulled down was naturally Rita, suggesting to Amelia that Rita might be waiting for an opportunity to retaliate.

When Amelia heard it, she unnoticeably frowned, which made it apparent that Rose’s words waved her.

At this time, Rita, who had been watching with cold eyes, saw it, her eyes sank slightly.

She raised her leg and looked at Rose faintly and asked, “I’m very curious, who is the person you are referring to?”

Although Rita was smiling, it was an awe-inspiring smile, Rose’s nerves suddenly tightened.

In the last few confrontations, Rose didn’t get the slightest benefit. This time, she didn’t dare to cause any more trouble, so she could only lower her posture and laugh, “The people in the detention center have a complicated background. It is inevitable to provoke some people since Charlotte had been pampered by me since young and might not know how to take cues from others.”

Rita didn’t believe Rose’s explanation at all.

She stared at her coldly and sat down on the sofa indifferently, “Charlotte is good at observing and making people happy. Wasn’t it because of her intelligence that grandma allowed her to help take care of the Brown Group? So, second aunt, you are probably worrying too much.”

Rita’s blunt words made Rose speechless, and she could only grit her teeth in frustration.

Recently, this cripple’s tongue had been smoother!

The statements that came out can’t be described as words. It’s more like a knife that invisible kills people, and the person that was cut hurt but couldn’t find the slightest loophole to fight back.

In addition, Rose did not dare to refute even if she knew she had suffered a loss as she was seeking help.

She could only endure it.

However, this forbearance was uncomfortable.

Although Rose knelt on the ground and didn’t say anything, her heart and lungs were in pain.

Rose was not only the only person who uncomfortable with the remarks, Amelia who was sitting also expression had a sunk expression.

In the past, Charlotte was well-behaved, sensible, and strong in her professional ability. She was very happy to take Charlotte with her no matter which event she attended and even once pinned her hopes on Charlotte for the rise of the Brown Group.

As for Rita, not only did she look down on her, but she was also kicked out of the Brown family.

But now, reality had given a resounding slap to her face.

Charlotte, who she looked highly upon, was in fact looking forward to her death and so thus to get her inheritance, while Rita, who was the most despised, tried her best to support the Brown family during the period she suffered a concussion and not in the right state of mind.

It would be impossible to be neither angry nor annoyed by what Charlotte did. For a second, she really wanted to give up Charlotte.
