Win My Forsaken Ex-wife Back Novel

Chapter 117 You Need to Be Mentally Prepared Tina quickly waved her hand .

Charlene , dont say that .

Ill bet fine heading home on my own .

Take care .

See you ! See you , Charlotte replied as she saw Tina off .

Afterward , Charlotte went to check on Sebastian .

She wasnt sure how much he had drunk , but he didnt look well at all .

1/4 Mabel was quietly sitting in the living room .

When Charlotte .

came out after settling Sebastian , she found Mabel playing with a figurine on the coffee table .

Mabel , were staying here tonight .

How about I show you the guest room to freshen up ? Okay ! Mabel immediately nodded and jumped off the couch to follow Charlotte to the guest room .

Once Mabel was settled , Charlotte returned to the bedroom .

To her surprise , Sebastian had opened his eyes at some point and was staring out the window in a daze .

Sebastian , how are you feeling ? Charlotte asked as she moved closer .

Sebastian sat up and rubbed his forehead .

Lottie , Ive run into some trouble .

Chapfer 117 You Need to Be Mentally Prepa … Charlottes heart skipped a beat .

She quickly asked , What happened ? Have Mom and Dad found out ? 2/4 He gave a bitter smile .

I cant let them know .

If they do , theyll kick me out of the company .

That was when Charlotte realized the situation was serious .

She steeled herself , asking , What happened ? Tell me , maybe I can help .

Sebastians eyes were bloodshot , and his voice was hoarse as he spoke .

I made a bad investment and got trapped by someone .

in the industry .

They took away one billion dollars in funds , which directly caused a break in the production departments cash flow .

I sold some of my properties to fill in , but its just not enough .

Charlotte gasped in shock .

Who set you up ? Sebastian shook his head .

I dont know .

I didnt even realize it was a trap .

Everything about the project looked great , including the prospects and the plans .

It was similar to ones Ive done before .

I thought it was a sure thing , but … I never expected this .

He lowered his head , clutching his hair , visibly distressed and full of self blame .

Charlottes expression grew grim .

She knew well that James and Camille valued the companys interests above all else .

Sebastian had always been competent , visionary , and reliable , which was why they trusted him .

But if they found out about the massive hole he had caused , they would never trust him again .

Chapfer 117 You Need to Be Mentally Prepa … dismissed now , it would be a huge blow to him .

3/4 Ill help you fill in the gap , Charlotte said firmly , pulling out her own savings .

I have thirty million dollars here .

You can take it for now .

Sebastians voice was hoarse as he replied , Lottie , this wouldnt even cover a days worth of losses .

Charlottes face remained serious .

We need to figure something out together .

Lets first plug the gap .

We need to figure out who set you up .

We cant just let someone stab you in the back and not even know who did it .

Sebastian , eyes bloodshot , nodded in agreement .

Go take a shower and get some rest .

Things will get better , Charlotte reassured him with a small smile .

Sebastian looked at her deeply , his guilt evident .

Im sorry .

I cant help you , and yet Im still dragging you into this .

What are you saying ? Charlotte shot him a playful glare .

Were siblings ! You protected me when we were kids , and now Im here to protect you .

Sebastian smiled faintly .

Yeah , my little sister has grown up and can protect her big brother now .

Charlotte stood up and left the bedroom .

She paced around the living room before finally dialing Dianas number .

Diana , somethings happened with my brother .

Can you look into who set him up ? Chapter 117 You Need to Be Mentally Prepa … 4/4 Diana replied , Tell me exactly what happened , and Ill see what I can do .

Okay .

Time passed quickly , and an hour later , Charlottes phone rang .

She immediately picked up .

Diana , have you found anything ? Dianas voice sounded cautious .

You need to be mentally prepared .
