Chapter 1204 Charlotte's Suicide
Before the gasps of shock could turn into reactions, Charlotte's head slammed into the wall, spraying warm blood that plastered everyone's faces.
They were all stunned!
Especially Austin, who had just regained his senses, only to be dumbfounded again, staring blankly at Charlotte lying in a pool of blood, unable to react for a long time.
"Charlotte."
"Charlotte."
"Auntie."
Martin, Patricia, and Charles jumped up from their chairs and rushed over as fast as they could.
Charlotte lay on the ground, staring up at the ceiling, memories flashing before her eyes like scenes from a movie.
"Charlotte, your dad and I are getting a divorce. Do you want to stay with me or with him?"
"Listen to me, your dad has another woman. If you stay with him, your stepmother will definitely bully and mistreat you every day! When the judge asks, you must say you want to stay with me, understand?"
"Your brother is the eldest of the Langley family. No matter what, the Langley family won't let him go. I can't fight the Langley family! I've already lost your brother; I can't lose you too! You must stay with me!"
A faint smile appeared on Charlotte's lips.
She remembered everything.
It wasn't that God was unfair; from the beginning, her fate was her own choice!
Back then, under her mother's influence, she had chosen to stay with her mother without hesitation.
It wasn't until they moved abroad that she realized her mother didn't really care about her or love her. Her mother fought for custody because of the hefty child support payments from the Langley family.
Her mother knew that Martin, being the eldest, would never be taken away from the Langley family, so she targeted Charlotte instead.
"Charlotte, are you really choosing to stay with Mom? Don't you want to stay with us?" Her grandparents said sadly.
"My dear granddaughter, I can't bear to let you go! Tell the judge you want to stay with the Langley family, okay? If you choose to stay, I will find a way to keep you here!"
"Charlotte! At home, you have Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, and your brother! If you leave, you'll never see us again!"
When her grandparents found out she chose to stay with her mother, they cried and begged her to stay.
What did she say back then?
"No, I want to stay with Mom. You have my brother, but Mom only has me! I want to be with Mom!"
And then, she left with her mother.
Afraid that her grandparents would take her back, her mother took her abroad.
Once they were abroad, her nightmare began with endless beatings and scoldings.
"You wretched girl, it's all your fault. If it weren't for you, if my second child had been a boy, your dad wouldn't have found another woman!"
"It's all your fault!"
"Look at you, your dad doesn't want you! They only want your brother and threw you to me!"
"Seeing you annoys me. Don't show up in front of me!"
"Look at you, you wretched girl. Your brother is living a luxurious life with your dad in the Langley Mansion, and you're just a burden to me!"
Under her mother's constant brainwashing, her mind became twisted.
She began to hate her father, Samuel, hate Martin, and hate everyone in the Langley family.
She had long forgotten that she chose to stay with her mother, believing that the Langley family despised her for being a girl and abandoned her, causing her to suffer so much.
"Charlotte, you smell so bad! Do you never take a bath?"
"Look at you, you look so poor. Does your family pick up trash? How can you still have patches on your clothes in this day and age?"
"Charlotte, do you think being good at school makes you special? Let me tell you, no matter how good your grades are, the teachers won't like you! They like students whose families can donate money to the school."
"You should just leave our school. You're like a rat, lowering the standards of our entire school."
Her clothes were old and worn out.
She hadn't bought new clothes in a long time, and everything she wore was too small.
Her classmates looked down on her and bullied her.
They poured water on her, locked her in the restroom.
They put glue on her chair.
They cut her hair.
They ruined her school uniform.
Male classmates took naked photos of her and threatened her.
She went to the teachers, but they did nothing, and the bullying only got worse.
She went to her mother, but her mother scolded her, saying it was her own fault for being bullied.
Under the relentless bullying from her classmates, she finally broke down and wanted to jump into the river to end her life.
Just as she was about to jump, Hunter appeared.
He was like a ray of sunshine, lighting up her life.
"You only have one life. Why would you want to end it? Once you're dead, you're gone from this world forever!"
"Tell me who bullied you, and I'll stand up for you."
"See? If someone dares to bully you, fight back! If you're not afraid of dying, why be afraid of fighting back? They value their lives, so they can't beat someone who doesn't."
"My current mother isn't my biological mother either. Like you, I was abused by her from a young age! If I had been like you, I would have died long ago! Every time she hit me, I told myself I had to survive, no matter what. One day, I would step on her and get my revenge."
"If you ever have trouble again, come find me! Remember my name, I'm Hunter."
After meeting Hunter, she realized she could fight back when bullied.
She realized what it felt like to be cared for.
From then on, Hunter became her only source of emotional support.
With him, she wasn't afraid and felt life had meaning.
Even when Hunter later said he was going back to Sunset Bay for revenge, she was willing to help him without hesitation.
But he fell in love with Patricia.
For Patricia, he even gave up on revenge at one point.
How ridiculous!
She had been with him for so long, and he never loved her, but he fell in love with his enemy in such a short time.
Driven by jealousy, she drugged Hunter.
Maybe, when a person was about to die, their thoughts became clearer, and many things they couldn't understand before became clear.
Suddenly, she remembered something, her eyes widening.
"Charlotte, how dare you drug me?"
"You disgust me."
"Get out of my sight. I never want to see you again!"
"I regret saving you. You're useless and can't help me at all."
"Yes, I admit, I saved you because you're Martin's sister. From the beginning, I was using you to get back at Martin and Patricia."
"Now that the Langley family has completely abandoned you, you're of no use to me anymore. You can leave and disappear from my sight."
So, from the beginning, Hunter had been using her.
He had planned to save her that day.
From the beginning, she had been a joke.
