Chapter 568
He had only appeared days after that encounter.
He hesitated for days.
To L, her looks were more important than her soul.
Right. He’s from the Fraser family. If the woman by his side was disfigured, he would feel embarrassed.
Charlotte chuckled self-deprecatingly.
Tears streaked down her face, and it broke Joseph’s heart; he had been watching them from the side in
silence.
His mind went nk for a split second. A wrath that seemed to havee from nowhere filled his
chest, and he strode out of the living room toward L.
With a quick swing, his fist collided in the other man’s face. “Why are you shouting? How dare you
shout at our house? Aren’t you a shameless man? Let me warn you now. If you dare to harass my
sister again, I’ll hit you whenever we meet. Douchebags like you deserve nothing but violence!”
L had not been expecting the punch.
He was a firefighter, and he was trained inbat.
When he came back to his senses, he instantly returned the blow.
Joseph was not a doormat; he was often around Lucas. Although he was not as good as thetter in
martial arts, he was still a good fighter.
Charlotte, who had been immersed in her sorrows, jumped in fright when she heard themotion.
She hurriedly walked over to see the two men in a fight.
Fae was standing at the side. Fearing that her son would suffer injuries, she shouted, “Joseph, stop it.
Mr. Fraser, let go of him!”
The two men were boiling with rage, and they did not heed Fae’s words.
Soon, themotion attracted the attention of the neighbors. Some passersby could not help but look
into the Field family’s house.
“Stop it! Stop fighting!”
Upon hearing Charlotte’s familiar voice, L could not help but turn toward her. Right then, Joseph
punched him and send him flying.
Charlotte was in pink pajamas, and she was wearing a pair of pink house slippers. Her hair was tied up
to show her forehead. It exposed the disfigured half of her face to the air.
Living with the Field family, she never had to cover her scars. The Fields had never looked at her oddly,
nor did they show disgust toward her looks.

The entire time, the Field family treated her as usual. It made her feel like they were equals; she loved
thefortable way they treated her.
Although L saw her scars in the past, her hair hid them partially. This was the first time he saw it
in full view.
His eyes instantly widened in disbelief at the sight of them.
There are so many of them. The scars crisscrossed over each other. Charlotte’s once-beautiful face
was now hideous. The scars were like oddly-shaped ants that crawled and settled themselves on her
face; it was a sight that made any onlookers nauseous.
L’s mind went nk; he could not find the words to say to her. He could not think of what he
should do either. Why did this happen?
“Why are you so hung up on such an ugly woman?”
Kate Fraser’s familiar voice sounded from the doorway. She was wearing high heels and holding onto a
limited-edition purse as she walked toward L. With a tender and upset look on her face, she
helped her son up.
“Mom, why are you here?” L was stunned to see his mother.
Kate shot a re at Charlotte, but when she saw her disfigured face, her own face paled. She
shrieked, “W-Why have you be like this?”
Charlotte bit her lip and looked at her, embarrassed.
She could not help but feel the fear that came to her every time she saw Kate, the person she wanted
to avoid the most.
Subconsciously taking a few steps back, Charlotte shut her eyes as the color drained from her face.
Her hands reached up to cover her head. “D-Don’te near me. Don’t…”
Joseph swiftly rushed over to stand in front of her, shielding her away from Kate. “Mrs. Fraser, this is
the Fields’ house. Please leave.”
“You’re chasing me away after hitting my son? You’re not getting rid of me that easily. Do you think that
the mayor’s family is allowed to be bullies?” Kate sneered. “This is awful society. I hope you don’t
assume we will take this quietly.”
