Chapter 2195
Bonnie could not help thinking that the knife Charlotte had used had not been clean, so she would not stop worrying
until a doctor checked Jim’s wound.
Jim furrowed his brows but did not reply and instead allowed Bonnie and Gwen to take him out of the room.
After the three of them left, Luke glanced coldly at a pale-faced Quentin and said, “Mr. Simms, they’ve already
given you the evidence you wanted.
“Even Charlotte herself admitted her true identity, and she even attempted to harm someone once again.
“With all this in mind, you must agree that Bonnie has won the bet, hasn’t she?” Quentin narrowed his eyes upon
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthearing this. A glimmer of hatred flashed through his eyes as he glanced at Charlotte, who was being restrained by
the guards. He should not have taken pity on her! He had known since the start that this daughter of his was utterly
useless, yet he still took pity on her and tried to help her!
Not only had he failed to protect her, but their relationship was exposed, too!
Quentin’s stare was so cold and penetrating that Charlotte could not help lifting her head when she felt his gaze.
Their eyes met as she lifted her head, frowning, and glanced in his direction.
She curled her lips into a smirk and said, “Didn’t you say you’d protect me, Father? Didn’t you promise that you’d
protect me at any cost?”
She burst into laughter and continued, “Well, you have no choice but to fulfill your end of the promise, Quentin.
Otherwise…there’s no telling what I’d say to Joshua if I get taken away.” It was clear that she was trying to threaten
Quentin.
A glimmer of malice crossed Quentin’s gaze.
He had saved her out of kindness, but not only had she exposed their relationship in front of everyone, but she was
also threatening him!
He should have known!
He should have known that this wretched daughter of his, who had grown up in an orphanage, would one day turn
out to be a crazy bitch like her mother!
He should not have taken her in during that moment of weakness!
However, it was too late to linger on the past now. The only thing he could do was try his best to protect Charlotte
as she said.

terms if I were to take Charlotte back from you?”
Joshua sneered. “You’re a resilient man, Mr. Simms. In just a span of a few minutes, you had changed into an
entirely different person altogether.” The color drained from Quentin’s face. He knew that Joshua was talking about
how arrogant and haughty he had behaved when trying to persuade Jim and Bonnie to sign the contract. He let out
an awkward chuckle and said, “Well, desperate times call for desperate measures…” All of a sudden, he turned to
glance at the servant standing behind him, as though he had recalled something, and ordered, “Quick! Go get Ms.
Riley!” The servant did as he said and soon reappeared with a baby in her arms. Riley was already two months old
now, and she had a pair of wide, beautiful eyes. She did not seem to understand what was happening and instead
peered around curiously at the people around her with no sign of fear. Quentin took the baby into his arms and
said, “Mr. Lynch, you probably know who this baby is, right? It’s the same baby Malcolm sent Hunter to steal from
Luna!” Luna’s chest tightened when she heard this, and she quickly glanced at the baby in Quentin’s arms.
This… This beautiful, bright-eyed infant… Was this her and Joshua’s second daughter?
