When he saw Charlotte Allison, he was slightly surprised.
It was impossible to ignore the multiple scratches on her face, neck, and hands.
In contrast, Lucas Quinn looked unscathed.
He didn't ask much about her wounds but instead mentioned that Mr. Sheldon had been feeling off since yesterday.
Yesterday, George Allison also received a call from Mr. Sheldon inquiring about the situation, although George tried hard to take the blame upon himself, Mr. Sheldon was not easily fooled.
Regardless of Mr. Sheldon's attitude today, George had decided to stand in front of his sister and protect her.
He thought, as a grown man, being hit by Mr. Sheldon's cane was no big deal.
Carrying birthday gifts, he entered the main room, where Mr. Sheldon sat upright, looking at George Allison and Ivy Price as they came in first.
Mrs. Sheldon smiled warmly, and Mr. Sheldon's tense expression couldn't hold under the children's birthday wishes; he broke into a smile and said, "Very thoughtful."
