All of you already knew about his situation!” he added, pertaining to Charles’ condition.The tone of his voice slightly rose, and his voice became louder, too. August’s burst of anger took the attention of everyone within the vicinity, and as August realized he was starting to create a scene, he waved his hands to everyone looking at him, a sign that he was apologizing.“Miss Sapphire told us not to call you while you’re in a meeting. She said that we might disturb you,” the nurse informed Augus

“W-WHAT ARE you saying?” asked Charles, his voice slightly stammered as he stared at Wesley’s sinister expression.“Like me, you also didn’t know what happened to your wife, right?” Wesley asked as his voice went dangerously low, and his gaze darkened, too. “Well, I know what happened to her.
