Chapter 104

Zac’s words echoed in Charlotte’s mind like a curse, refusing to let her rest. They kept swirling in her head, leaving her distracted and uneasy.

So much so that when she visited Sean at the hospital the next day, she looked completely lost in thought.

“Lottic, what’s on your mind?” Sean asked,

Her lashes flittered as she turned her face away, avoiding his eyes. “Um… what’s the deal with that judy o

Se an gave her a look that was hard to read, then smiled faintly. “Are you jealous?”

Charlotte puffed out her cheels and tried to act indifferent. “No, I’m not. You just never mentioned her before, so I was curious.”

But the truth was, she was more than just jealous. The fact that this woman had kidnapped Jodie and even tried to stab her had Charlotte simmering with anger on top of everything else.

“Where do you keep attracting these crazy women?” she grumbled “She’s completely unhinged.”

Sean beckoned her over with a finger, “Lottie, come here,”

Charlotte leaned in closer and gave a little huff. “A handful? How many’s a handful?+

Seanchuckled “rive, six, seven, maybe eight sentences.

“And that’s not a lot to you?” she said, feigning outrage.

Sean looked at her, completely taken with how adorable she was being. His eyes were filled with affection, and he couldn’t stop smiling. “It was nothing, mally. Just the first few times she confessed, Thad to say something to tum her down. After that, we hardly spoke at all.”

Charlotte narrowed her eyes, still suspicious. “You didn’t feel even a little something for her? She’s pretty, you know,”

Not at all,” sean said, locking eyes with her. “There’s only ever been one person in my heart. No room for anyone else.

Curiotte tilted her head, pretending not to get il “Someone else? Who?”

Sean’s eyes twinlded with amusement. “Who do you think?”

She roumbled under her breath, “Well, if you don’t say it, how would I know?”
