Chapter 359
"Charlotte? You're sure it was her?" Melvin's eyes turned cold.
Sarah nodded firmly. She'd had many interactions with Charlotte, heard both her sweet talk and vicious words.
Though she hadn't seen the attacker's face, she was certain it was Charlotte.
The motive was obvious - James.
He'd been acting strangely lately, coming to comfort her after her breakup with Zachary. Anyone would be
suspicious of his behavior.
"James barely tried to stop Lucy's arrest. He must have known the truth," Melvin paused, then added, "And
there's something else - Charlotte is pregnant."
"How convenient," Sarah said bitterly. "Getting pregnant right after this incident. It's James's first child - his

"That's what family's for."
Melvin took back his tablet. "Miss Larson blames herself for what happened. She cried for hours outside the
emergency room yesterday."
"She must have been terrified," Sarah said. She would never doubt Scarlett.
Scarlett had panicked and made a mistake, but she'd never intentionally cause harm.
"I'll call her later."
At eleven-thirty that night, Morning Star Bar was lit up brilliantly.
In the farthest corner of the bar, Scarlett sat crying over her drinks.
It was all her fault. If it weren't for her, Sarah would never have been hurt.
