Chapter 47
“Take them to the police station.”
“Wait…” I interjected, looking at the man in the blue shirt.“Is Caroline the one who instructed you?”
The man in the blue shirt trembled slightly, avoiding my gaze, not daring to respond directly. “I… I can’t say. She has powerful backing; I can’t afford to provoke her. I’d rather go to jail!”
I took a deep breath, knowing deep down that I had already gotten the answer I wanted.
Reynald left the compartment with me.
Hospital.
I walked out of the emergency room with a bruise on the corner of my mouth.
Reynald leaned against the wall and handed over my phone, saying, “Yours.”
This was my phone left in the compartment.
I took it with both hands and squeezed out a weak smile.“Thank you.”
Looking at my disheveled appearance, Reynald said helplessly, “Charlotte, how did you end up in the compartment with those people? They are not good people; they have a history of sexually harassing
women.”
I was tongue–tied, which is quite funny to think about…

I stood still, only clenching my fists, my eyes firm.“A woman’s chastity never lies beneath a silk skirt, even if they succeed, I will not seek death. I will only live well, and then send them to hell one by one with my own hands.”
Reynald was stunned for a moment, then sighed.“James asked me to take good care of you. If he finds out that something happened to you, he will skin me alive.”
I was somewhat surprised.“Professor Kendall…”
“You are his favorite disciple; he always protects you, treats you like his own granddaughter, you know that.” Reynald thought for a moment, staring at me.“If you feel wronged, why not tell him?” Given the Kendall family’s status and power, those people can’t escape this today.
I shook my head.“I don’t want to bother the elder.”
Reynald seemed lost in thought. Was it because I didn’t want to bother, or…? He had no idea about Professor Kendall’s identity. But he didn’t ask.“Shall I take you back?”

“Thank you for your trouble,” I didn’t refuse, as I couldn’t drive either.

Reynald and I walked out of the hospital. Downstairs, a familiar black car was parked in front of the
main entrance.
