Even though Charlotte’s injury on her hand had already been bandaged, Justin Battleson still frowned.
"It’s nothing, just a minor injury."
Charlotte shook her head, because right now, there were more important things for her to investigate.
"Do you think that person we just saw could really be Annie’s... brother?"
Upon hearing Charlotte’s inquiry, Justin’s expression also darkened.
"But right now, I can’t think of any other explanation."
"Or could it be..."
Just as Charlotte was about to finish her sentence, Vincent walked over, a little concerned about the wound on Charlotte’s arm.
"Besides the wound on your arm, are you injured anywhere else?"
Vincent’s voice captured Charlotte’s attention. She shook her head towards Vincent and gently replied, "I’m fine, you aren’t hurt either, are you?"
Yet, recalling what had just happened, Charlotte still felt a lingering fear in her heart.
Charlotte’s question made Vincent press his lips together, his glance quickly passed over Justin’s face before he slowly replied:
"I’m fine. In fact, this isn’t the first ti I’ve encountered such things."
Seeing a hint of surprise on Charlotte’s face, Vincent continued:
"In my country, if sothing like this happened, that man’s actions would definitely face severe punishnt, but the laws in Druarus seem to..."
At this point, Vincent lowered his eyes, just as he was about to say sothing, Justin’s voice ca out first.
"Sorry, I ca too late."
Justin frowned tightly, his voice filled with regret, completely ignoring Vincent who was beside him.
"It’s okay."
Seeing Justin extrely nervous and guilty, Charlotte couldn’t help but squeeze his palm gently, softly comforting him:
"The nurse just said that it’s just a minor wound. After bandaging, it will heal in a few days. After all, today’s incident happened so suddenly, no one could predict it, but as long as the kids aren’t hurt, that’s all that matters."
Now, the disrupted order in the hospital was slowly being restored, the onlookers dispersed, and Vincent was called away by a nurse. Naturally, Justin wouldn’t let Charlotte and the children stay in the hospital any longer.
But on the way back to the villa, Charlotte had already taken out her phone from her pocket.
Regarding matters related to that man, Charlotte would definitely contact Annie Anne to inquire thoroughly.
Unfortunately, Annie seed to be busy filming and didn’t answer Charlotte’s call.
With a furrowed brow, Charlotte was considering whether to ask in a text ssage when a call ca in from Stardust Garden.
"Grandmother." The caller was Jasmine Clarkson, and Charlotte politely responded, listening intently to what she had to say next.
"Charlotte, are you with Justin right now?"
"Yes, Grandmother. Is there sothing up?"
"Nothing major, just wanted you and Justin to bring the kids to Stardust Garden."
After hearing Jasmine’s words, Charlotte blinked and almost instinctively asked, "Now?"
She imdiately tightened her grip on the phone, then glanced at her torn sleeve and the wound on her arm, her lips pressed together tightly.
No matter what, she couldn’t et Grandmother looking like this.
