Chapter 628
Sarah's expression turned serious. Though she didn't fully understand their conversation, she suspected it might
be connected to Zachary's investigation.
Charlie knew he wouldn't get any money from Sarah, but with Manager Sun's deadline looming tomorrow, he had
to find four thousand dollars tonight. He stubbornly retreated to his room to continue his desperate search.
Before leaving, he couldn't resist one final threat: "Watch your mouth."
Mrs. Wesler wiped blood from her lip. Her face was swollen and marked with slap prints. She tried to push herself
up from the floor, but her body trembled from the beating. Unable to rise, she collapsed back down, weakly
tapping the ground.
Sarah approached and extended her hand. "Lethelp you."
Mrs. Wesler looked up with a complex expression but finally placed her hand in Sarah's. "Thank you."
Sarah helped her to her room, then retrieved a medical kit from her suitcase.
Mrs. Wesler stared curiously at the contents-iodine, disinfectant, anti- inflammatory medicine, bandages. Sarah

“I hate him, not you," Sarah replied firmly. "Charlie is a man with no ability, no dignity, and a gambling addiction.
He's already beyond saving. You should leave him as soon as possible.” She paused. "And this entire family-
everyone here— they're all numb to it."
Mrs. Wesler looked down, her voice tinged with resignation. "But where would | go? You're from the city-you don't
understand. Over here, divorce brings shame. I'd be labeled a disobedient woman, cursed by everyone."
