Chapter 686 You’re Pretty Cute When You’re Stupid

Charlotte averted her gaze and looked at the man in front of her, lifting her chin slightly. “Untie me. How am I supposed to eat with my hands bound?”

When the man heard that, he pulled out a dagger and moved closer to her.

She quickly gulped and shut her eyes tight. A moment later, the rope around her wrist came loose.

She could feel her nose tingle as she looked at her reddened wrists and gently massaged them.

The man warned, “Miss Woodley, it would be best for you not to play tricks, or you won’t even have food to eat in the future.”

At that, Charlotte muttered, “Aren’t you afraid that I—”

“You’re just a pawn. The only thing that matters is that you are alive. Don’t have too many demands, Miss Woodley. You’d better understand your situation.”

After saying those words, the man turned around and left, locking the door behind him again.

Charlotte looked at the food in front of her. Sniffling, she picked up her fork and started gobbling up her food.

As she ate, her tears pattered when they fell into the food.

She didn’t even know how Zoe and Joseph were doing now. Those people probably didn’t do anything overboard with them, but Zoe was bleeding so much…

At the thought, Charlotte couldn’t help but sob. The more she thought about it, the sadder she was as she blamed herself more.

If only she hadn’t so stubbornly insisted on leaving Jamesdon to come to Highside, Zoe wouldn’t have gotten hurt trying to protect her.

And the baby in her womb… I’m sure they’re safe.

After finishing her meal, Charlotte tried to open the door, only to realize that it was locked. She then walked to the window where she saw several men in black coming in and out downstairs.

It was almost impossible for her to escape by jumping out of the window.

Feeling dejected, she sat on the bed and gazed sadly out the window.

After a while, a woman appeared downstairs.
