Chapter 562 - 562: I Just Feel Pain For You

Dylan didn't stop. He grabbed her wrists and held them behind her waist. He was about to take the next step when the door was knocked on twice.

Disturbed, he raised himself disapprovingly, trimmed his collar before he said, "come in."

The door opened, and Garwood walked in. With a glance at the mess on the bed and Savannah's red face, he knew he showed at a bad time.

"It's about Miss Rowe, sir," he coughed to break the embarrassment.

Dylan paused for a moment, and calmly patted the woman on the hand.

"Wait here, I'll be back in a moment," he said before he followed Garwood out of the ward.

He came back ten minutes later.

"What's wrong with Charlotte?" Savannah asked hastily.

"She was disfigured by Edmond with sulfuric acid and lost one of her eyes." Dylan looked at her.

Savannah gasped.

"It was last night. Edmond had planned to smuggle to Vietnam. Before he left, he went to Royal Villa and wanted Charlotte to go with him, but she refused. Edmond, whose emotion changed from love to hate, threw a bottle of sulfuric acid to her face. After he was sent to the police station by a security guard, he confessed everything to the police, including the kidnapping of you and Kaiden, which was suggested by Charlotte."

Savannah knew that Charlotte would never escape punishment this time, but she did not expect she would have such a tragic end. Now Charlotte was not only disfigured and blind but also facing prison.

Edmond liked Charlotte so much. He would not have done anything to hurt the woman he loved if he hadn't been so disappointed and angry.

Charlotte, however, didn't deserve sympathy.

After all, she had to pay back her own debt.

***

A kidnap and attempted murder case was going on. Edmond would have to go to court and spend a long time in prison.

Charlotte, the main culprit, was temporarily released for medical treatment due to severe burns on her face and blindness. She would be first treated in the detention center hospital and then prosecuted after her situation was stable.

Ethan and Joanne arrived from Chicago in a hurry.

After what had happened to Lionel and Granny Rowe, that could be imagined how shocked and grieved Ethan was now.

According to Garwood, Ethan passed out when he heard about Charlotte and was taken to the hospital. Then he struggled to come to LA.

Everyone in the Rowe family suffered a lot these days.

But Savannah did not feel sorry for them at all.

When Savannah was discharged from the hospital, Dylan wanted her to move straight back to Beverly Hills, and Kaiden couldn't agree more.

However, Savannah felt it was not suitable for her to live with him before they remarried.

Old Sterling also advised Dylan to send Savannah back to her house first, saying that it was better to pick her up from her own house on their wedding day.

Dylan had to follow her wish and sent her back to Green Bay on the day of her discharge.

Two days after leaving the hospital, Savannah went back to work.

Her colleagues, including director Jenkins, knew nothing about the kidnapping.

Fiona apparently did not say anything about Savannah and Dylan to anyone in the company.

In the evening after work, Savannah went out of the office building and saw a familiar white car parked not far away.

The driver pulled the back door open, and Joanne came out, walking slowly to her.

"Why... Why didn't you tell me before you took revenge on the Rowe's?" Joanne muttered. Her face was tired, and she looked ill.

What the Rowe's suffered these days, of course, also affected her.

Savannah knew that Charlotte must have told Joanne and Ethan about her revenge.

Joanne must have known that she had framed Lionel up to break up the relationship between the Rowe family and the Sterling family, and it was she who reported Lionel and made Granny Rowe insane.

"Now that you know about my revenge on the Rowe's, you should know why I did it. Years ago, Granny Rowe killed your ex-husband, my father. Dad's car accident was arranged by your current mother-in-law, who had someone break the brakes on dad's car. And then she lied to you, telling you that I died with my father, which was a great shock to you so that you could marry her son. Now they paid the price, and they deserved the punishment." Savannah said calmly.

Joanne stood, staring at her with tears streaming down her cheeks.

"I understand," Savannah continued. "you've been living with the Rowe's for so many years, and you are in agony about them. But I don't feel sorry at all. Yes, their business and their life are almost ruined by me, and I should be satisfied. But how can they ever make an amendment for killing my father? Can they bring my father to life? I don't even think it's enough! I took my harsh revenge to give justice for my father. I was alone when dad died. You can't blame me,"

Joanne was shocked to know what her daughter had done to the Rowe's from Charlotte, and it was the Rowe family who murdered her ex-husband. She still had not recovered completely now.

In her mind, her mother-in-law was just stern and a little unkind. She never thought she had done such a wicked thing in order to let her marry Ethan.

"Savannah," she calmed down and said with a trembling voice, "I came to you not to blame you for what you have done. I just feel pain for you. Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known it, you wouldn't have to carry such a psychological burden alone."

Savannah said nothing but turned her face away.

Joanne knew that her daughter still couldn't let go of the hatred, and even though she was on the side of the Rowe family. She held her hand and wanted to pull her into the car.

Just then, Savannah noticed that the wedding ring on Joanne's fourth finger of her left hand was gone, leaving only a faint ring mark.

"Mom…" she paused.
