Chapter 634 Why Are You Unbroken
Before watching the video featuring Christopher, Charlotte had already conjured up various possibilities regarding her father's condition. Perhaps he was missing an arm or a leg, as he had mentioned such a fate for a caught criminal.
After completing her disguise, acquiring a new identity at the airport, and initiating a video call, Charlotte exclaimed triumphantly, "I won the game! Pay up!"
On the screen, a figure resembling her father's back pounded the table vigorously, with all limbs intact. Opposite him sat a man whose face was wrapped in bandages, suggesting a broken nose. He cursed and clumsily produced three fresh banknotes, tossing them onto the table.
Charlotte found herself momentarily perplexed before ending the call.
With AI technology so advanced, she reasoned that it must have been the wealthy and beautiful woman manipulating her.
After over ten hours of flight, Charlotte finally touched down at Armie's Bay City airport. Near the exit, someone held a sign bearing her new identity, likely dispatched by the aforementioned woman to fetch her.
Charlotte ignored the surrounding crowd as she moved forward, sensing someone trailing her closely.
Frowning, she quickened her pace, only for her pursuer to match her speed.
Realizing she couldn't escape smoothly in a place with efficient law enforcement like Armie, Charlotte resorted to her last option. "Uncle! Help me, someone's following me!" she cried out, latching onto a seemingly righteous man with tears and fear in her eyes.
Hearing her plea, bystanders swiftly encircled Charlotte and confronted her pursuer.
"Why are you stalking her? Back off, or I'll call the police!" one person demanded, while another berated the pursuer for their unproductive behavior.
Sensing the escalating tension, Charlotte attempted to slip away but was halted by a familiar voice from the crowd.
"Charlotte, it's your father!" the voice declared. "What kind of scum are you traffickers? Is impersonating parents the only trick you have? Let me tell you, with us here today, you won't be able to touch this child!"
She poked her head out of the crowd. Sure enough, she saw her spirited father with some bruising on his face.
“Sorry, he is my father indeed, "Charlotte said, interrupting everyone's condemnation.
"Huh? Weren't you just saying this was a human trafficker?"
"That's right, little girl, don't be afraid. Uncle, Auntie, brothers, and sisters will all protect you!"
"Uncle, Auntie, brothers, and sisters, I haven't seen my father for a very long time since I was little. I didn't recognize him earlier, but now I confirm that he is my father!" Charlotte sincerely said.
The people around confirmed it repeatedly. Only then did they disperse. Charlotte walked up to Christopher, touched his hands, and pinched his legs.
Her gaze was indifferent and full of confusion. "It's all real."
"Of course, it's real. You better pray for me more often!" Christopher said with a smile, opening his arms and hugging Charlotte. "I didn't expect Fiona to actually bring you here!"
Charlotte was stunned for a moment. "Fiona brought me here?"
Charlotte looked at Christopher, unsure of what to say.
The wealthy and beautiful woman had not informed her father about Simon's murder.
"So, where are we going next?" Charlotte asked.
Christopher smiled and patted Charlotte's head. "We can't go back to where we lived before, Charlotte.How about we explore Armie together? If you like it here, we can stay."
"Sure, you're part Armie anyway," Charlotte replied.
"You're also half Armie, remember? Your mother was Armie," Christopher said lovingly.
Charlotte didn't say anything. "Why didn't Fiona break your legs or kill you when you tried to kill her child?"
Christopher fell silent, wondering if Charlotte was unhappy when he was safe and sound.
Christopher pondered. "Fiona's a good person."
"But you said all rich people are bad," Charlotte retorted.
"You're such a stubborn child!" Christopher playfully tapped Charlotte's head, but his thoughts quickly shifted to the memories of the pain Christopher endured after being kidnapped by Simon.
Christopher pinched Charlotte's arm and cheeks. "Why have you gained weight?"
Charlotte used to be really skinny no matter how much she ate. After being kidnapped, Charlotte started gaining weight. The meals in the royal palace were too nutritious.
Just then, the group of people who held up the signs approached them.
"This little girl." Mike held his arm, looking down at Charlotte. "She runs as fast as a rabbit as if the bad uncle wanted to take you away."
Charlotte looked at Mike.She had a look on her face as if she was mocking him.
Mike felt like he was being ridiculed by a little girl.
"Chelsea is still waiting for you. Let's go," Mike said.
"Wait." Christopher turned to Charlotte. "The lady who brought you back wants to meet you. Are you willing?"
Charlotte agreed.
"She's beautiful and kind, so you don't have to be afraid."
Mike felt a sense of frustration. He had already heard that from Ms. Chelsea.
Charlotte killed Prince Simon in the palace of the royal family. She cut off someone's head with a chef's knife.
Meanwhile, the royal family has set up a dragnet to search for Charlotte's whereabouts.
However, Christopher regarded her as a fragile child.
Soon, they left the airport and headed straight to Emerald Pool.
Under the sunny sky, Fiona and Thalassa lounged on the lawn, observing Charlotte's approach with a group of men. Charlotte, though petite, exuded a commanding presence.
"So, that's the one who took Simon's head off?" Thalassa sat up and looked at the pretty little girl in a pink dress with two braids.
"Yes," Fiona replied.
A few minutes later, Charlotte arrived in front of Fiona.
"Hello, Charlotte," Fiona greeted warmly with a friendly smile.
Charlotte looked at Fiona. She blinked her eyes lightly and said, "You look prettier in person than in the videos."
Both Thalassa and Fiona were stunned. No one expected such a young assassin, appearing so cold-hearted, to make a compliment to Fiona when they first met.
"You are more beautiful than in the videos too." Fiona smiled brightly and then looked at Christopher.
"I would like to have a chat with your daughter about some girl talk. Can you guys excuse us?"
Christopher was taken aback by Fiona's request, but Mike swiftly intervened, challenging Christopher to a game of Texas Hold'em, dragging him away from the impending conversation.
