Suddenly, Charlotte Thompson's mind was blank. Her lips moved, but she found herself unable to utter a single word.
She had always believed that she was immune to emotions and feelings.
However, now, she realized that she was wrong. Terribly wrong.
All the fortresses cautiously built in her heart collapsed in front of Justin Battleson, as if something unspeakable had been added.
It seemed like something was slowly creeping into her heart.
Charlotte's heart skipped a half beat, she drew a breath and her mind became a tangled whirl. Her thoughts were twisted up in knots and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't untangle them.
She unconsciously bit her lip, unsure whether to agree with Justin.
All the countless preparations and excuses she had made in her heart had collapsed into a mess. She felt a choking sensation in her chest, leading to agitation. She quickly retreated from Justin, furrowing her brow.
