CHAPTER 1605: CHAPTER 1605: SHE DIDN’T LOCK THE DOOR!

However, Charlotte noticed out of the corner of her eye that Justin Battleson intended to step forward.

She reacted quickly and took a step back.

Justin’s steps froze in place, and finally, he could only sigh helplessly and say heavily:

"Charlotte, I couldn’t reach you, so this was the only way."

After Charlotte left the hotel, Justin finally saw the rumors about himself and immediately tried to contact Charlotte to explain, but met with no response.

Without hesitation, Justin found his way to The Thompson Villa, but he didn’t even get the chance to enter the gates of the Thompson Family, let alone see Charlotte.

All that greeted him... was the rejection from Charlotte’s brothers.

Upon hearing Justin’s words, Charlotte’s brows furrowed slightly.

"Couldn’t reach me?"

Charlotte stared at her own toes, "You didn’t even call me once. How exactly were you planning to reach me?"

Saying this, Charlotte failed to notice the complaint hidden in her tone.

However, Justin’s eyes flashed with doubt: "Didn’t you receive any of my calls? I have been trying to reach you ever since you left the hotel."

As he spoke, Justin seized the opportunity to move a little closer to Charlotte.

"But I never received any of your calls."

Charlotte shook her head, then walked to the bedside to pick up her phone. She intended to show Justin, but when she saw Justin standing right before her, Charlotte’s actions halted.

Then Charlotte turned slightly and spoke softly:

"It doesn’t really matter, Mr. Battleson, you..."

But before Charlotte could finish, Justin quickly interrupted, his usual calm and composed demeanor turning notably passionate.

"It does matter! Charlotte, it’s not what you think, you..."

Just as Justin began to explain, there was a gentle knock on Charlotte’s door.

"Charlotte? Are you asleep?" It seemed to be Henry Thompson’s voice from outside.

Charlotte was genuinely startled.

But she quickly gestured for Justin to remain silent.

Just as she was about to respond, Justin unexpectedly came over and pressed her onto the bed.

"Justin Battleson!"

This action completely took Charlotte by surprise. She reached out, pushing against Justin’s chest to shove him away, but the Justin perched above her was immovable.

At the door, Henry seemed to have heard some rustling sounds from inside the room, prompting him to raise his voice and call Charlotte’s name again.

"Charlotte? Are you asleep?"

"I... um..."

Charlotte instinctively wanted to answer, but Justin was quicker, silencing her words and causing only a muffled whimper to escape.

Charlotte glared fiercely at Justin in front of her, wanting to pinch him on the side, but Justin seized the chance to entwine his fingers with Charlotte’s, completely pinning her beneath him, giving her no chance to struggle or escape.

It seemed they heard the sound of the doorknob turning, and Charlotte’s pupils contracted swiftly, her heart racing uncontrollably.

Suddenly, Charlotte realized that when she returned to her room today, she hadn’t locked the door!
