Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 1841

Roanne was utterly stunned by Charlotte’s sudden aggressive behavior.

She bit her lip and lifted her head to stare a t Charlotte, blood still seeping out of the corner of her mouth. "Charlotte, I have no idea what you're so pissed about."

Roanne was just telling the truth; she did not understand why Charlotte was so irate.

Whether it was at the orphanage or after they had escaped from that horrible place, Charlotte had always been the one who loved mutton.

When they were still at the orphanage, a girl named Number-9 used to offer her uneaten mutton to Charlotte in exchange for vegetables and bread.

Even though Roanne was a timid girl who was constantly bullied by the rest of the children, she still knew what was going on and had a vivid memory of this kind girl.

This was because...every time Number-9 got her hands on the vegetables and bread, she would give half of her food to Roanne i n secret.

Because of Number-9's kindness, Roanne had managed to survive and did not starve t o death at the orphanage.

However, after less than two years at the orphanage, Number-9 was one day adopted. Before she left, however, she did not forget to remind Number-12, who was Charlotte, to take care of poor, timid little Roanne.

This was the only reason Charlotte brought Roanne along with her when she left the orphanage many years later.

Despite this, Charlotte had never treated her kindly at all. She forced Roanne to return her favor, claiming that she owed her life the Charlotte and treated her like a slave.

This was another instance of Charlotte's unruly behavior toward her. Roanne had no idea what she had done wrong, yet Charlotte had smacked her even before giving her a chance to explain!

"Don’t you know where you fucked up?" Charlotte glared at Roanne. "Didn't I tell you to shut your mouth about everything that happened at the orphanage? How dare you tell Jim that I was the one who loved mutton? Are you trying to expose me?

"Let me tell you this, Roanne, if Jim abandons me one day, then I'll bring you with me to hell!

"Get out of my sight! In the future, you’re not allowed to step foot into Landry Mansion without my orders, much less stay for dinner!"

With that, she turned around and stomped off.

Roanne was slumped against the hood of her car with her hand clutching her burning cheek. She stared at Charlotte's retreating figure, tears brimming in her eyes.
