Love Worth Fighting For

395 [Bonus chapter]Same wound

Brakkk....

Limited edition snowballs in celebration of the 20th anniversary of Disneyland Paris, which is the target of all entertainment venue lovers, broke all over Charlotte Lloyd’s room, joining other pieces of glass that now make the single girl’s room look like a war zone.

It was a link sent by Johan two hours ago that caused Charlotte to go crazy this morning. The blue-eyed girl looks very frustrated after learning about Christian’s marriage, the ideal man who has been a permanent resident in her for decades.

“Damn it!!!!”

“Arrrggggghhhhh....”

“I hate you, how dare you do this to me!!!”

“I won’t stay silent, I don’t accept this... I don’t accept it...”

Chester, who had just arrived in Geneva, couldn’t do anything when he realized that his only daughter was going crazy in the room, the middle-aged man could only silently listen to harsh curses that escaped from Charlotte’s lips.

“How is it, sir? Miss Charlotte has been like this for almost two hours, I’m afraid Miss Charlotte will hurt herself.”

.....

Chester took a deep breath. “It’s okay, Charlotte isn’t that stupid. She wouldn’t have gone that far, you don’t have to worry.”

“But what’s the sound of the pieces breaking, sir?”
“I’ll go in and talk to her,” Chester replied quietly.

The butler, who had devoted himself to the Lloyd family for more than twenty years, could only silently hear Chester’s words, without a sound the maid stepped back to give Chester time to speak to his daughter who was going crazy in her room.

Knock...

Knock...

“Honey, it’s Daddy. Open the door, honey, Daddy wants to talk,” Chester said softly not long after he knocked on Charlotte’s locked bedroom door from inside.

There was no answer, even though Charlotte heard her father’s voice but the girl did not move from her seat this time. Anger still overcame Charlotte.

“Daddy knows you are angry about the news, Daddy knows you are disappointed but Daddy asks you not to be like this, honey. You are still very young, beautiful and smart. Many young men are lining up to be your future husband, Charlotte. So please don’t be like this,” Chester said back. “If you continue like this, then the one who will lose is yourself, honey. He, they, the people who make you sad and disappointed will still be happy and don’t care about you, so please don’t be like this. Don’t make Daddy sad.”

It didn’t take long for Charlotte’s bedroom door to open. There was a loud ‘beep’ sound when the room owner pressed the remote door. All doors in the Lloyd family residence are high-tech doors.

Chester’s smile grew when he realized Charlotte had already opened the door for him. Chester carefully pushed open the Tigerwood wooden door which was the only way into Charlotte’s room, Chester’s smile widened when he saw how messy the condition of his favorite daughter’s room was. Just like before, Chester didn’t say anything when he stepped into the room that was filled with dangerous objects.

“Can Daddy join you?”

Charlotte shifted her seat, allowing her father to sit beside her with her mouth locked tight.



“Daddy guess, you are angry like this because you read the news, right?”

Charlotte still kept her lips locked, she didn’t give any response to her father who just spoke.

“Why do you keep your feelings to yourself, honey?”

Charlotte moved her face, turning towards her father with teary eyes.

“A man like Christian is the kind of man who doesn’t lack beautiful women in his life, he definitely doesn’t have a great sense of the circumstances around him either. That’s why you can’t just sit back and wait for him to make a move, baby.”

“I think he’ll understand how I feel, Dad,” Charlotte said softly. “I think Christian can read the love language I show him.”

“Oh my dear.” Chester took Charlotte’s body into his arms. “You are too kind, baby. You are too naive and innocent, you should have told Daddy about your feelings for him from the start. If only Daddy had known from the start, Daddy would have made his move right away. Daddy would have talked to Anne, she would have agreed to marry you two. ”

Charlotte’s tears fell profusely hearing her father’s words, the sound of her sobs could even be heard clearly at this time. Chester immediately closed his eyes, hearing the cry of the child who was heartbroken like this made his heart break. Chester never thought that his only daughter would experience something similar to him, who had to lose to Jack when he was trying to get Anne’s day decades ago. Charlotte’s cry made the wound that Chester had been trying to heal himself open wide in his chest.

“How am I going to go on with my life when it’s like this, Daddy? How am I going to face Christian after this? I can’t, I can’t.”

“Shh...don’t talk like that, you are too valuable to continue to mourn that child’s stupidity. Daddy believes his wife is not equal to you, she must be the type of girl from the lowest caste who uses her body to seduce young men like Christian,” said Chester with a voice trembling with anger. “You are too valuable to keep crying over it, there are still many young men out there who are much better and much richer than...”

“No.” Charlotte instantly pushed her father’s body away from her. “I don’t want to be with anyone else, I only want Christian alone. Christian is my first love, Daddy. How can I replace his position in my heart with another man, no one will be able to replace him from my heart, Dad,” Charlotte said half screaming.

“Baby...”

“No!!!” Charlotte jumped off the bed with her bare feet. “Ouuchhh....”

“Charlotte!!!”

Chester immediately grabbed Charlotte’s body, but it was too late. Charlotte had already stepped on the glass shards on both her feet, instantly the fresh blood from Charlotte’s feet stained the floor with a deep red color.

Seeing that the child was injured, Chester then shouted for everyone to come to Charlote’s room. Some of the maids who had just stood still near Charlotte’s room cursed in shock when they saw fresh blood pouring from the legs of the lady they served.

“Call the doctor, quickly call the doctor!!!” Chester shouted frantically.

A senior servant rushed into the living room to call Lloyd’s family doctor. The butler who had accompanied Chester earlier approached Charlotte’s bed. Having a little knowledge in the medical world made the old woman quite adept at treating the wound on Charlotte’s leg. While the other maids began carefully cleaning Charlotte’s room which was full of sharp objects.

Seeing her beloved daughter suffer, Chester’s wall of patience finally collapsed. “You have to pay for all my daughter’s tears, Christian. Every single tear that spills from my daughter’s precious eyes I will hold you accountable to you, I swear.”
