Chapter 122


    Chapter 122 It Was a Lie


    “Mom! Thedy said if we dared to move, she would kill us and our parents! I didn’t move. I don’t want


    to be hurt!”


    Anna was crying so hard that she couldn’t catch her breath, her little face turning bright red.


    Hearing her words, Charlotte felt a pang of heartache, her eyes bing teary as well.


    At that moment, Ben tugged at Charlotte’s sleeve and pointed out a few spots, “I saw them burying


    things in these ces…”


    Charlotte’s expression turned serious, and she quickly picked up the two children. “Let’s get out of here


    first.”


    Joe had also descended at some point and took Ben from Charlotte’s arms. “Let me carry one.”


    Charlotte hesitated for a moment and agreed.


    Meanwhile, David’s eyes had turned bloodshot. He threw a punch at one of the strong men, making


    him spit out blood.


    He had intended to throw a few more punches, but he held back, worried about the children. He


    scooped up Danny and


    rushed outside.


    One of the leading bodyguards moved to grab Lily, but to his surprise, she suddenly opened her eyes.


    She even tightened her grip on the knife in her hand and viciously lunged towards the bodyguard.


    Luckily, these bodyguards were experienced. In the instant


    that Lily opened her eyes, he swiftly grabbed her wrist, snatching the knife from her hand, and even


    turned her over, pinning her down on the ground.


    “I won’t let any of you off the hook! I’ll never forgive you!”


    Despite her disheveled appearance, Lily’s excitement was palpable. She kept hurling insults at


    Charlotte.


    Charlotte walked up to her, her expression devoid of emotion.


    She looked at Lily scornfully for a moment and suddenly pped her hard across the face.


    Half of Lily’s face immediately swelled up. She red at


    Charlotte with malice, “Do you think it’s that simple? Don’t


    worry. There will be someone to avenge me!”


    Charlotte’s entire focus was on her children at this moment,


    and she didn’t catch the undertones of Lily’s words. With an indifferent expression, she said, “I will use


    every possible


    means to ensure you spend the rest of your life in prison.”


    “You don’t have that right!” Lily shouted, but nobody paid her any attention.


    Even Charlotte just nced at her briefly before returning to the children’s side.


    Charlotte earnestly thanked Joe outside the warehouse, “I’m grateful for your help just now. Thank


    you.”


    Joe lowered his gaze, his eyes deep and heavy, “Were the things you said to Lily just now true?”

    Charlotte fell silent for a moment, then gave a wry smile, “If I hadn’t said those things, her focus would


    have been on the children. The consequences might have been even more unimaginable…”


    “Every word you said just now was a lie?” Joe’s tone turned cold.


    Charlotte nodded without hesitation.


    For a moment, a peculiar expression crossed Joe’s face. But just then, with a weak voice, Ben


    suddenly called out, “Mom, my hand hurts.””


    Charlotte immediately lowered her head to look. She saw that the area where Ben was injured had


    swelled considerably, with even a purplish bruise forming around the joint – it


    looked extremely distressing.


    With no time to waste on Joe, she hastily scooped Ben up and rushed toward the car.


    At that moment, when she turned around, she didn’t see that Joe discreetly pocketed something in his


    hand.
