Chapter 1030

“What did you say?”

When Charlotte tensed up upon hearing the news, she felt a sudden pain from the needles. Blood began oozing out slowly.

“When you’re being treated, you can’t be too emotional.” Dr. Felch admonished from next door. “Whatever it is, talk about it later. Out you go!”

“Right away, I’m sorry.” Lupine stepped out at once.

“Charlotte, you have to maintain your calm. No matter what, you can deal with it after the treatment.” Hayley quickly comforted her. “The needles pierced deeper into you when you were agitated just now. Does it still hurt?”

“Y-yes…” Charlotte was in such stinging pain that she could barely speak. Gritting her teeth, she instructed, “Hayley, tell Lupine to gather the men and wait for me.”

“Charlotte…”

“Go now!”

Hayley had wanted to calm Charlotte down. But given how desperate she was, Hayley was worried about agitating her further. Hence, she had no choice but to relay the message.

Lupine was waiting right at the door for further instructions. Upon hearing Hayley’s message, she replied at once, “Don’t worry, Ms. Lindberg. I’ll get right on it.”

“Everyone listen up, prepare the vehicles and arm yourselves. Once Ms. Lindberg is done with her treatment, we will move out!”

“Yes!”

Given the commotion, everyone else at home was nervous.

Feeling unnerved, Mrs. Rawlston rushed into her room and wanted to make a phone call.

When Lupine’s sharp eye caught what she was doing, she snatched the phone away and respectfully said, “Mrs.

Rawlston, Ms. Lindberg respects you a lot so we won’t dare lay a finger on you. However, if you do anything to betray her, we will show no mercy!”

“No, no…” Mrs. Rawlston anxiously explained, “I’m not betraying her, I just… just…”

Mrs. Rawlston stuttered for a long while.

Finally, she sighed. “At the end of the day, they’re all family. I don’t want to see them being separated by a misunderstanding.”

“I too hope that it’s a misunderstanding.” Lupine knitted her eyebrows. “Mrs. Rawlston, excuse me.”

She ordered the bodyguards, “Keep an eye on them and don’t let them contact anyone outside.”

“Yes.” The bodyguards watched the Nacht family servants to ensure they didn’t make any calls.

Inside the room, Sam couldn’t help but feel nervous when he saw what was going on outside. His hands trembled just when he was serving coffee.

“Don’t be afraid, just continue with your work.” Dr. Felch reminded him plainly.

“Is Ms. Windt going to start a fight with Mr. Nacht?” Sam wasn’t aware of what was going on. “Weren’t they all right just this morning? Why are they at each other’s throats right now?”

“Stop poking your nose in other people’s business. We’re only doctors!”

Sipping his coffee in silence, Dr. Felch had no intention of interfering with Charlotte’s decision.

“Yes.” Sam didn’t dare comment any further.

Soaking in the medicinal tub, Charlotte’s body trembled at the pain. However, thinking about what the Nacht family did to her pained her even more.

She had forgiven them time and again on the children’s account. However, not only were they not remorseful, but they also took advantage of her kind gestures by crossing the thresholds she had.

“Calm down and focus on the treatment,” Dr. Felch uttered with a deep voice when he sense how unsettled she was.

“No matter what you plan to do, you will need to be in good shape. If you are consumed by hate, the poison will flow back into your body instead of being removed. So, please weigh your choices carefully.”

Charlotte closed her eyes upon hearing his words. She tried hard to cast revenge out of her mind as she knew that she had to focus on healing.

After being jolted by her emotional outburst earlier, she felt a piercing pain emanate throughout her body.

In her mind, she repeatedly reminded herself, Charlotte, calm down. Don’t let yourself get worked up over the b*stard. It’s not worth your while agonizing over that selfish and ungrateful family.
