Chapter 253:
At the mention of the police, Belinda’s expression immediately became strange and indescribable, and she didn’t dare to respond to their words.
Charlotte pulled out her phone, “I’m going to call the police now.”
“Don’t call the police!” Belinda grabbed her hand and said with narrowed eyes, “It’s useless to call the police on this matter. The other party may be gone.”
“Still, we should call the police, so the police can take care of the matter. If they ran off with the money, it’s fraud.” Charlotte kept wanting to call the police. Belinda panicked and snatched the cell phone from her.
“Don’t call the police!”
Bruno couldn’t take it and stormed out of the room. He roared angrily, “Charlotte, your mother is talking nonsense. She’s played with that money.”

“Stop it!” Belinda snapped angrily and covered his mouth. Bruno shook her, “I’m telling the truth. Don’t you think that’s enough? How did you get the previous three hundred thousand? Now that you’ve lost everything, you still want to ask her for money? You better kill her.”
Charlotte, “……”
She stared dumbfounded at the scene before her.
She hadn’t expected things to get this bad in this family in just a few short years. She reached insensitively toward Belinda and said in a muffled voice, “Mom, when did you become addicted to gambling?”
Belinda lowered her gaze and didn’t dare to speak.
“Recently, I think you are rich since you married into the Moore Family. I bragged to others and got fooled by them.”
Charlotte, “… So the last time you came to borrow money from me was because you lost all the money? That’s why you came to me to ask for three hundred thousand?”. Belinda said nothing and looked very guilty.
Charlotte felt radicular, “You didn’t make up for the family deficit with that three hundred thousand, but kept gambling?”
“Charlotte, I’m sorry, but you have to save me or . I’ll be screwed.”
Wearily, Charlotte closed her eyes. “I thought I might have a sense of belonging at home, but I never thought…all you bring me is endless fatigue. Mom, you know what? I’ll have to pay back the three hundred thousand yuan bit by bit.”
“What?” Belinda looked at her incredulously and grabbed her arm, “You are Miss Moore.
Why do you have to pay back the money? Charlotte, it’s my fault, help me, okay?”
Charlotte was shaken by her and was unable to stand steadily. She was left with no pep, as if the next second she was going to fall down.
She closed her eyes desperately. “Mom, do you think I’m rich, or do you think I’m good in the Moore Family? I’ve been married for many months, have you ever asked me how I am?”
Belinda froze in place and looked at her stunned.
After a moment he seemed to get angry and grabbed her arm. “What do you mean by all this? You don’t want to help me, do you? You want to watch me die? You are a loveless daughter. I’ve raised you for so many years, and you refuse to help me?” At that moment, Belinda raised her hand and slammed it directly into her body.
Charlotte stood up on the spot, biting her lower lip hard: “Even if you kill me, I have no money!”.
Bruno came to dissuade her, “Why did you hit her, isn’t it enough for you to have taken three hundred thousand from her? The person Charlotte married is a cripple, who knows what position he had in the family? Don’t make it difficult for him. Charlotte, go back first, I’ll think of a solution with your mother.”
“No! You can’t go back! Who’s going to give me money if she comes back?” Belinda was mad. Thinking that she couldn’t pay and might have to be arrested, she wanted to cut off her hands and legs, she was afraid and kept gripping Charlotte’s arm tightly, clawing her arm bloody.
Charlotte’s wounds had not fully healed and now she had new wounds.
She looked at her old wounds underneath the new ones and couldn’t help but laugh.
She was so hurt, but no one cared about her when she got home. And her mother even hurt her.
Sometimes she wondered if she was her daughter. Why did Belinda treat her differently than Christina?
“Charlotte, go away!”
Bruno came to stop Belinda and signaled Charlotte to leave quickly.
Bruno’s action helped Charlotte. She gratefully shot a glance at Bruno, nodded and left the house.
Walking down the street, Charlotte suddenly felt she had nowhere to go.
Suddenly, her phone rang. Charlotte paid no attention to it, but her phone kept ringing.
Charlotte had to pick it up.
“Hello?”
Her voice was weak.
“Charlotte!” It was Yanis’ voice. She sounded energetic and cheerful. “Where are you now, why didn’t you come to the office today, are you still on vacation?”
Charlotte paused and said after a moment, “Yes.”
“Gee, I’m out too – I haven’t woken up until now! How about I come see you? Let’s go for a walk.”
Charlotte looked across the street and then blinked, “I don’t think so.” How was she going to go shopping in her current state?
“Where are you, I’ll come find you, send me the location. I want to see you.” Yanis ordered her directly. Charlotte had to send him the location, and then she looked for a place to clean the wound on her arm, waiting for Yanis.
When Yanis found her and saw her new wound, he was depressed.
“What’s wrong, how did you get hurt like that, did you run into those old women again, did they hurt you?”
He asked several questions in a row, which made Charlotte laugh. “No, I accidentally scratched myself.”
“Don’t lie to me.” Yanis looked at her mercilessly and dragged her to the car, “Go to my house to take care of it.”
“You…”
“You know what? It was Mr. Manfred who called me and told me you weren’t feeling well today and asked me to come and see you.”
Mr. Manfred….
Charlotte’s expression changed. She had not expected ……
“What do you think of this man? He wants to be nice to you, why doesn’t he come to see you himself? Unexpectedly he asked me to do it. He was strange. You are his sister-in-law, Charlotte, I have to tell you that Mr. Manfred is handsome and kind, but I feel his character is not good. It is immoral to cheat on his brother.”
