Grabbing Lydia's wrist, she pressed. "What did you see? Tell us, we can help."

Charlotte, irritated by Lydia's exaggerated reaction, scolded her coldly, "Just spit it out. Who dares to bully you in the Aniston. family?"

It was only after Charlotte's words that Lydia hesitated, her voice barely a whisper, "I... I saw a woman being pulled into a room by Dalton..."

Her voice trailed off, tears spilling down her cheeks, making her appear pitiful and helpless.

Dylan's face darkened immediately. "What nonsense is this?"

"Stop crying. If this really happened, Sir Aniston will take care of it," Cameron tried to comfort her.

Charlotte felt a headache coming on. She knew her son, and she knew there had to be more to this story.

Instinctively, Charlotte scanned the crowd.

When she noticed that Meryl was missing, an uneasy feeling washed over her, after recalling her son's words from earlier, Charlotte thought, "Dalton still seems to be hung up on Meryl." "Could he really have done something foolish in public?

"The door's locked. If I don't get out soon..." she thought to herself.

"Chandler is good to me, and I care about him. Don't bring up things like this again. You should throw that scarf away," she said, her tone firm and cold. With that, she tugged at the door. Dalton's face darkened, hurt flashing across his features, and his eyes shimmered with unshed tears.

"Throw the scarf away? How can you say that so easily?"

"Meryl, are you trying to erase everything we shared?"

Meryl shook her head. "No one can erase the past, but I've moved on. Dalton, you should move on too."

"You're wasting your energy. The lock's broken today. It can only be opened from the outside," Dalton muttered softly.
