Chapter 835 - She... Shouldve Been Dead (1/2)

The atmosphere in the ballroom soon turned a bit chaotic.

”Help my father ... Please ... Help my father ...” Caroline Wendell screamed repeatedly. She rushed to her father and tried to protect the old man from Danny Swann's next attack, but he didn't care at all. He pulled Caroline's body, who was trying to shield her father.

Caroline, who felt cornered, immediately got up and approached London Schneider, hoping he would help her father. She wanted to hold London's hand and beg him to help.

”Please, help my father, London. You must have bodyguards, right? You must have your people here ... Don't let my father be beaten by that crazy man. I have nothing to do with him! What he did has nothing to do with me. I can't let him beat up my father ...”

London reflexively dodged the girl, and his action shocked Caroline to death. Caroline's eyes widened as she looked at the man she thought was falling in love with her.

”Wh ... why are you treating me like this? I already told you, my father and I are innocent. We have nothing to do with him. You see for yourself, right, he is attacking my father. That's because he holds grudges against us ...”

London did not seem to care about Caroline, who was begging for help. His attitude, which suddenly turned cold, made the girl wonder. She really did not understand what had happened.

She suspected that London did indeed stay away because he thought she was involved or in collusion with Danny Swann to kill someone for the inheritance.

Drops of tears began to flow down her cheeks as she again tried to get closer and reach London Schneider's hand. However, the man coldly brushed aside Caroline's hand.

”Don't touch me,” London said in a voice as cold as ice.

This made Caroline rooted to her place. She really did not expect that the man would change his attitude 180 degrees.

”What's going on? Why are you acting like this to me? I've already said that I have nothing to do with what he did. I have no idea,” said Caroline desperately.

Hearing the girl's words, Danny Swann's anger became increasingly mounting. He left John Wendell, who was still lying on the floor with his face covered in blood from the beating.

Danny approached Caroline, who looked very frightened at the sight of Danny Swann, who seemed ready to kill her.

”Do not come closer!!” screamed Caroline hysterically. ”I have nothing to do with you.”

”How could you say that to me ... after everything, I did for you. Your father told me to kill Marianne so we could be together. As it turns out, it's all just a lie. Apparently, you've found another man. You and your father are really low.” Danny approached Caroline, threateningly. ”I should have known that you were a gold digger who only wants my wealth.”

”Don't come close ...” Caroline slowly retreated with her arms outstretched in fear.

”If you really love me for who I am, you wouldn't mind that I only received half the inheritance from my grandfather so that I could refuse the arranged marriage.” Danny shook his head in frustration and hurt. ”Why do you have the heart to do that to me, Caroline? I love you so much since we were little ... Why are you so mean to me ...?”
