He was trembling: "I was blind not to recognize your greatness, it was my fault, I was wrong, please..."
He was desperately slapping himself, his eyes filled with palpable horror.
Then he crawled in front of Charlotte Thompson, kneeling before this "daughter" whom he had never valued, and who he had even once despised.
"Charlotte, it was daddy’s fault, daddy should not have treated you that way in the past, can you forgive daddy?"
"Charlotte, I know you’re a kind child. For the sake of your mother, forgive me, please..."
Seeing Ethan Allen, who was nearly fifty, knelting before her, Charlotte initially felt some sympathy.
However, he made a huge mistake by mentioning Sophia Thompson!
Charlotte’s eyes grew sour, she gritted her teeth with an expression full of hatred.
Henry Thompson noticed and signaled to the bodyguard.
The bodyguard immediately came forward to pull Ethan Allen off, raising his hand to slap him hard.
This slap was much stronger than any he had given himself.
"Ethan Allen, you betrayed my mother and caused her to die resentfully. You abandoned me in the countryside to fend for myself. You made me replace Emily to marry into Stardust Garden. For your wealth and honor, there is nothing you wouldn’t do."
"What right do you have to ask for my forgiveness?"
"How dare you ask me to spare you for the sake of my mother?"
"Ethan Allen, you are not worthy!"
As her words fell, the bodyguard hit even harder.
Ethan Allen could only hear a buzzing in his ears, he was unable to speak, only whimpering.
Mia Stewart and Emily screamed out, their shrill cries and the sound of slaps echoing in the warehouse.
Emily cried and whispered to Mia Stewart: "Mom... Did Charlotte find a powerful backer?"
Mia Stewart couldn’t deny it, her face was ashen.
Charlotte, with her arms crossed, stood side by side with Jordan Thompson quietly watching this farce.
The bodyguard stopped, and Ethan Allen rushed at Henry Thompson again.
"Sir, I... was wrong, please..."
On the other hand, Henry Thompson just took a step back and easily shrugged Ethan Allen off. He looked rather impatient and turned his head.".
Ethan Allen missed his target. He glanced back at Charlotte, hatred bubbling up in his eyes.
Charlotte did not even spare him a glance, following Henry Thompson’s steps, and walked straight out of the warehouse.
Henry Thompson glanced back and said to Charlotte: "Charlotte, everything is settled. It’s time for us to leave."
Leaving, Charlotte understood what it meant.
Well, let’s leave here.
Charlotte nodded her head.
She went to see Abigail Taylor, to thank her for her care over this period.
For Abigail Taylor, she had a lot of gratitude that she couldn’t express. In the end, she gave her a check, but got scolded by Abigail.
"What do you take me for?" Abigail Taylor glared at her.
Charlotte knew she had misunderstood.
"Don’t get me wrong, I’m leaving Druarus, and we don’t know how long it will be before we see each other, so I’m worried about you..."
"Ah, of course, it would be nice if everything went smoothly, but who doesn’t have a time when they need help, right?"
"When I needed help, you were there for me. I’m not by your side now, but I hope this check I leave will be able to help you when you most need it."
"Of course, I still hope that you will never need to use it."
Abigail Taylor was moved to tears, she accepted the check and gave her a sincere hug.
The day Charlotte left Druarus, both Abigail Taylor and Henry Hudson went to see her off.
As the plane took off, Charlotte looked at the white clouds and replayed everything that had happened over this period.
