<b>Chapter </b>11
“How old <b>are </b>you that you are still arguing with a child?”
Charlotte was stunned, knowing full well that he wouldn’t believe her, but his tant favoritism still stung her.
She looked at him with a sour expression in her eyes, holding back <b>tears</b><b>, </b>I didn’t push <b>him </b><b>at </b><b>all</b><b>!</b><b>” </b>
Jaxsonughed, <b>Are </b>you saying a child of <b>a </b>few <b>years </b>old tripped and <b>framed </b><b>you</b>?<b>” </b>
Charlotte’s heart trembled.
Why bother exining when I knew he wouldn’t believe me….
She <b>lowered </b><b>her </b><b>eyes</b><b>, </b>trying to regain herposure, “Meeting you guys <b>is </b>just my bad luck, okay?”
She turned around to <b>leave</b><b>. </b>
“Stop.”
Charlotte hesitated for a moment, then didn’t look back.
Collin is just a kid <b>after </b>all, why bother arguing with him,” <b>Jaxson </b>softened his tone, “Apologize to Collin.”
<b>“</b><b>Jaxson</b><b>, </b>maybe we should just <b>forget </b>about it…” Caroline spoke up for her.
His eyes <b>were </b>cold, “If you make a mistake, you admit it and apologize<b>.</b><b>” </b>
с
Charlotte clenched her fingers, her nails almost sinking into her palm, but she seemed to have forgotten the pain.
She turned slowly, looking directly at Jaxson, pointing to the surveince <b>cameras </b>under the <b>streetlight </b>not <b>far </b>away, “Heavenwood Apartments <b>are </b>full of surveince cameras. Can’t <b>you </b><b>go </b>check the <b>surveince </b>before trying to be a hero?”
“If I did something wrong in the surveince, I <b>can </b>apologize<b>, </b>but if it’s not my fault, <b>don’t </b>expect me to apologize<b>!</b>”
Charlotte didn’t look at him again, she turned around and left.
<b>Jaxson’s </b>chest suddenly tightened, his face darkened slightly.
Caroline was just thrown into a panic by the word “monitoring“. She was <b>really </b>afraid that Jaxson would check the <b>surveince </b>footage. She grabbed <b>Jaxson </b>and said, “Jaxson, let it go. Collin wasn’t hurt, and I believe Dr. Sutton didn’t do it on purpose<b>.</b>”
? ? ?? ? ? ? ?
She absolutely couldn’t let Jaxson go to see the surveince footage, then quickly changed the <b>subject</b><b>, </b>“Jaxson, Collin <b>is </b>about to bete, let’s go first.”
Jaxson pulled his arm out, “I have informed the principal, <b>you </b>take Collin over there, she will <b>arrange </b>everything, I have a meeting.”
He went straight back to the car.
Caroline tightened her grip as she watched Jaxson drive away, but she <b>forgot </b>she <b>was </b>still holding Collin’s hand.
“Mom, I’m in pain.”
Collin was pinched by her.
Caroline came to her senses, slowly crouched <b>down </b>and <b>grabbed </b>his <b>shoulders</b><b>, </b>her <b>eyes </b>gloomy, with a hint <b>of </b>satisfaction, “Collin, you did <b>very </b>well this time, excellent.”
