“Wait!” Justin called out.
After hearing what Bella said, Justin felt an inexplicable anger rise in his chest. He said calmly, “Ms. Brown, don’t you still owe me an apology?”
Ryan sighed disapprovingly. He felt like taking off his socks and stuffing them into Justin’s mouth.
Bella felt a dull pain in her heart. She looked back at him indifferently.
Justin felt that her sharp and disappointed gaze had penetrated his soul.
“It wasn’t Annie! It wasn’t Annie!”
A sweet and soft voice appeared in time, catching those people with evil intentions by surprise.
Bella’s eyes lit up when she looked toward the voice.
“Carrie!”
A girl wearing a simple white dress with a “cauliflower” head and a fair and delicate face ran toward them.
This ridiculous hairstyle was Bethany’s “masterpiece”.
In the Salvador family, Bethany had always seen Carrie as her imaginary enemy.
Bethany was jealous that her sister was more beautiful than her. Thus, she tried every possible means to bully Carrie. As long as the two of them appeared in public, Bethany would purposely make her sister look ugly for fear that her sister would steal her limelight.
Carrie was an autistic child. As a result, she became more withdrawn as she grew older. In front of strangers, Carrie would always hunch her back and remain silent.
In the three years that Bella was married to Justin, Bella was the only person, other than Wilma, who had given warmth to this neglected sister.
After Bella left the Salvador family, she missed Carrie.
Bella did not expect to meet Carrie here today and was excited to see her.
“Stupid brat! What are you talking about?”
Bethany glared at her sister fiercely. “Besides Rosalind, Anna was the only one in the bathroom at that time. If she didn’t do it, who else did?”
“No, it’s not Annie! It’s not Annie!” Carrie was anxious and scared, and she was a little incoherent.
“Carrie, mind your own business. Go and play by yourself!” Shannon looked at her youngest daughter with a reprimanding gaze.
Carrie clenched her fists and walked up to her half-brother, looking at him nervously.
“Justin! Annie didn’t do it!”
“Carrie, why do you say that?” Justin’s tone was unprecedentedly gentle, especially when facing his younger sister.
“I saw it! I… I was in the bathroom at the time! I saw it!”
Everyone was shocked. Rosalind’s face turned ashen.
Bella was also stunned. She never expected Carrie to also be there when she was confronting Rosalind.
“I saw… Ms. Gold came over to argue with Annie… Annie wanted to leave, but Ms. Gold wouldn’t let her
Ms. Gold pulled Anna and took off her bracelet. Then Ms. Gold broke the bracelet… And then… Then Ms. Gold ran out, yelling… But Annie didn’t touch Ms. Gold! I saw it!” Carrie said this while gesturing with her hands in the air. Tears welled up in her eyes.
“Carrie…” Bella’s heart trembled, and her eyes gradually turned red.
Bella knew how timid Carrie was. But Carrie still stood up in front of a crowd for her sake, to tell the truth and defend Bella.
