After all, living under someone’s roof was not a long-term solution. Charlotte had experienced the bitterness of that for years.

Meanwhile, Ashlyn was peeling an apple for her grandma in her ward.

She had been quite busy recently. When she was not busy with Fashion Week, she would be searching for Charlotte. Besides the two tasks, she was also busy with the development of the antidote.
