Chapter 28

Shannon and Charlie enter Lucas' room. Shannon says "Lucas?"

Lucas looks at Charlie and says "You're Charlie?"

Charlie says "Yes, sir."

Shannon says "Do you know each other?"

Lucas says "Charlie, I just wanted to thank you for helping Shannon this morning."

Charlie says "No big deal. Would have done it for anyone."

Lucas says "It's a big deal to me."

Charlie says "I don't mean to be rude, but are you done? This is making me very uncomfortable."

Shannon says "Charlie, this must be weird for you. I'm sorry."

Louisa, stood behind Shannon, says "Why don't you apologise to me? You've ruined my family."

Lucas says "Louisa, don't speak to her like that."

Louisa storms out. Charlie says "I'll wait outside."

Charlie leaves. Shannon says "She's right. I have ruined her family."

Lucas says "It's been ruined for years. This is the first time she's seen it."
