Chapter 248
Paige shouted in panic, "Joseph and Bobby, help me!"
Instinctively, Charlotte turned around.
She was met with a slap so hard that her vision blurred, and the corner of her mouth started to bleed.
The excruciating pain forced her to take a step back while she was covering her face with her hands, and then she was hit in the chest. Bobby did not show any mercy to her.
Joseph rushed forward and grabbed Paige's hand to pull her up. Her legs were limp, so she could not stand at all. She leaned into Joseph's arms and shook uncontrollably.
There was a serious look on Joseph's face.
He hugged her and patted her on the shoulder. "Don't be scared, I'm here!"
She put her arms around his waist and she curled up into a ball. On the other side, Bobby kicked Charlotte to the ground as she screamed in pain.
He didn't stop. It was rare to see such a vicious woman. If he and Joseph had arrived late, Paige would have been thrown into the ocean by her.
Bobby stepped forward and pulled Charlotte up by her hair viciously. She howled in pain as her hair was yanked.
Her screams spread far and wide, so people came over to see the commotion.
Everyone was surprised to see Bobby beating up a woman.
There was a lot of discussion going on. "Uh, what happened?"
No one answered. Abbie also heard the noises and came over.
Seeing that Paige was trembling in Joseph's arms and that Bobby was fiercely pulling on Charlotte's hair, Abbie ran through the crowd and said, "Paige, what happened?"
"Abbie, she was going to push me into the ocean. I almost fell in!" Paige held Joseph's waist and said in a trembling voice.
"What?" Upon hearing this, Abbie was furious. She immediately rushed over to slap Charlotte in the face.
"B*tch, I just f*king warned you. How dare you mess with her again!"
Charlotte's hair was about to be ripped off after being pulled in that manner, and her cheeks were also as swollen as a chipmunk.
Her arrogance had disappeared.
She didn't realize that Paige had people other than Abbie who would stand up for her.
Moreover, the person standing up for her was none other than Joseph of the Dawson family. She was
extremely terrified and she could only defend herself with a shrill voice.
"She was the one who provoked me first. Last night, she got someone to break my brother's arm. I just wanted her to apologize, but she didn't want to, so I did this to her!"
"Apologize for what, motherf*cker! I've known her for so long, and I know that she has no connections to abuse people like that. How could she be the one behind it?" Abbie wanted to kick her again.
"Paige can't swim. If you pushed her down, she would have died and you would be her murderer!"
"I didn't mean to push her down. I just wanted to scare her!" Charlotte explained.
"Okay, then I'II scare you too!" Abbie said fiercely, "I'll push you into the sea later. Do you have any problems with that?"
"That's a good idea! Bobby, let's do it!" Joseph said.
"No!" Charlotte yelled in horror as she heard what they were saying, "Help! Can someone help me!"
Bobby hoisted her up to throw her down, and she cried while holding on tightly to the railing.
Hardy and Paisley hurried down the stairs, "Let's talk it out. Don't be so harsh on her! She's a girl after all!"
"In my mind, there is no difference between a man and a woman. If you touch my people, you will be punished regardless of your gender!" Joseph was not considerate of her at all.
"Well." Hardy felt awkward after he heard Joseph's statement.
Paisley did not speak, but her eyes fell on Paige who was shivering in Joseph's arms.
Paige and Joseph had been low key before, but now they were hugging each other in public. Was she challenging her because of their conversation in the kitchen?
Paisley was fuming on the inside, but she kept her expression neutral. She asked, "What happened?"
Charlotte saw Hardy and Paisley and screamed for help at the top of her lungs, "Cousins, help me! It hurts! They're going to throw me into the sea!"
"Mr. Dawson, can you let go of her and let us talk it out?" Hardy also saw Paige trembling in Joseph's arms.
Judging from the bruises on Charlotte's face, it was obvious that she had done something bad. Otherwise, Joseph would not have asked his bodyguard to attack her.
He didn't know what had happened, but it took place on the yacht that he was in charge of, so he had the obligation to solve it.
Hearing Hardy's words, Charlotte saw hope, "My cousins, please save me. I'm in so much pain! It hurts so much!"
Joseph murderously looked at Hardy and sneered, "Mr. Anthony, is this malicious woman your cousin? I didn't think it was possible for a woman to be so vicious. I guess it's because you would cover up for her?"
"No, Mr. Dawson, I wouldn't cover up anything for her. I just want to find out what happened. Can we sit down and talk about what happened?"
"This wicked woman wanted to push Paige into the sea. If Joseph and his bodyguard hadn't happened to pass by, Paige would have been pushed down. She can't swim either, so you probably know what the outcome would have been!" Abbie shouted angrily.
"What? How you got the courage to do such a heartless thing at my party?" Hardy was furious when he heard this.
"Call the police right now and give her to them!"
"Could there be any misunderstandings in this?" Paisley spoke, "I always feel that no matter how bold she is, she would not dare to kill someone, would she?" NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
"I didn't want to kill anyone. I just wanted to scare her and for her to apologize!" Charlotte immediately explained, "She asked someone to break my brother's hand, so I just want an apology."
"Do you have proof that it was her who was behind your brother's broken hand? If you don't have proof, you'll regret this!" Abbie gnashed her teeth in anger.
"I don't have any evidence, but my brother had a dispute with her last night before he got into trouble. If it wasn't her, who else could it be?"
"That's all this stemmed from? How are you so simple-minded?" Hardy was furious, "I kicked him out of the yacht yesterday because of the trouble he made. He was attacked within ten minutes of leaving the
yacht. If it were you, would you be able to arrange things so quickly?"
"Uhm.." Charlotte was at a loss for words.
Paige couldn't have made an arrangement so quickly. What was going on?
Sophia had told her the whole thing, and Charlotte needed someone to take the blame.
"Sophia Martin told me everything!"
"Sophia Martin? That b*tch is behind all these?" Abbie was angry, "Where is she?"
When Sophia heard the commotion, she thought that Paige had been thrown into the ocean, so she went over to watch the fun.
However, she didn't expect to hear that Charlotte would rat her out.
