Chapter 1289
Sophie looked horrified. She quickly shook her head. “No, that’s not what I said. I said I saw her holding
Ren’s hand, but I don’t know if she’s doing anything else.”
“Unbelievable!” Charlotte slammed the table. She was just going to get up, but then dizziness washed
over her, and she slumped down onto the couch.
Shocked, Sophie stood up. She shouted, “Charlotte fainted! Somebody, come!”
Two servants made a quick dash into the room. One of them called the hospital, while the other
summoned the family physician.
Charlotte was deathly pale. The sight of it made Sophie gulp. Fear was finally kicking in. She had no
idea what she said would make Charlotte faint, but then she realized that the lady was almost eighty.
Of course telling her anything shocking would do a number on her.
Scarlet came right away. Sophie quickly picked up her bag and tried to leave. Angela was hurrying
over, so she bumped into her.
She noticed the nervous look Sophie was giving her. Wait. She might have something to do with this.
Angela grabbed her by the collar. “What did you tell her?”
“N-Nothing. Let me go. I have to go.” She escaped Angela’s grasp and left in a hurry.
Angela heaved a sigh. Great. She must have told her about that. I can’t believe an outsider broke the
news to Charlotte first.
Scarlet and Richard were right beside Charlotte. They massaged her temples and wrists, but she still
didn’t regain consciousness. Harold was asleep from drinking too much, so Scarlet told everyone not to
wake him.
The ambulance had arrived. Richard picked Charlotte up and quickly went into it. The ambulance
quickly made for the hospital, while Richard and Angela were following it in a car.
Scarlet picked her phone up and called Ren.
“What is it, Scarlet?”
