My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 516

Chapter 516

This softened his heart immediately.

With just one shove, he pushed Lochlan’s hands away from Charlotte’s shoulders.

In the next moment, she fell steadily into his arms and he could feel her shudder helplessly.

Joseph patted her back comfortingly, “Don’t be afraid, I am here…”

Charlotte threw her arms around his waist and burrowed her face in his chest as she cried.

Lochlan felt like he had been stabbed deep in his chest.

It was as if an invisible boulder fell sharply on his chest, suffocating him.

He stared at Joseph grimly with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. “Sister? When did Mrs. Field give birth to a sister this age?”

He stared at Charlotte who was in Joseph’s arms and ordered, “Lottie, come over here.”

He could barely wait to break both of Joseph’s arms! How dare he wrap his arms around my little darling, whom I had loved and protected with every inch of my soul?

She must be disfigured now because of Joseph and the Field family. This was the reason why she refused to acknowledge me!

Lochlan glared at Joseph angrily for cuddling Charlotte in his arms.

Charlotte looked up slowly from Joseph’s arms and shot Lochlan a swift glance, “I don’t know you.”

Her eyes were distant and had none of the previous love and affection.

He looks so frightening right now.

There’s no way I will go to him.

He must have become this fierce out of disgust for my face.

Charlotte could not accept this reality at all.

She had imagined beforehand how it would be to run into Lochlan. While she was afraid that Lochlan would despise her, she was also quietly hoping that he might not.

However, reality had dealt her a very cruel slap, forcing her to face the facts.

Indeed, Lochlan hates my ugly face.

From the moment they met, he had not uttered a word of concern, asked me how I had been, nor where I was living.

All he was concerned with was to snatch me away from Joseph. His possessive eyes and his commanding tone, together with his attitude towards both of us said it all.

He did not even ask me how I had injured my face.

Charlotte was now hurt beyond words and the pain made her lose all will to live.

Olivia looked at the interaction between the three of them perplexed.

Indeed, that girl had been disfigured just as Richard had mentioned. She is so ugly now!

Why is Lochlan still so obsessed with her?

What is so good about such an ugly girl?

She had faded into the background throughout this whole scene. Walking up to Lochlan in frustration, she tugged his arm, “Mr. Lochlan, I am your girlfriend now. What do you take me for when you are so intimate with another girl right in front of me?”

Lochlan shoved her away and said grimly, “Ms. Warhol, all I did was to agree to a dinner with you. Never had I agreed to be your boyfriend, so please do not put words in my mouth.”

“Since you agreed to come out with me, isn’t this considered a date? Lochlan Fraser, are you toying with me?” Olivia glared at him as if she had been given a huge slap on the face.

“Let’s go…” Charlotte told Joseph softly. Joseph nodded and held her hand as they walked around Lochlan and Olivia.

“You are not allowed to leave!” Lochlan ran up to stop them and his handsome face looked grim. “Lottie, you have to come back with me.”

“Mr. Lochlan, she does not know you at all.” Joseph spoke coldly through his curled lips.

The usually happy-go-lucky man was very obstinate right now.

He stood in front of Charlotte protectively as if he were a huge mountain.

It was surprising but it warmed Charlotte’s heart.
