“Isn’t it pretty good? Charity said calmly. “You hate me and are desperate to kill me, yet you can’t do anything to me. You have to give me bonuses from the money you earn yearly. How good is that? I can even criticize you openly in the company if you do badly and accuse you of not letting us shareholders gain profit.”Chester laughed out of anger. It seemed like he had lost in that round as well. He used to think that being Jewell Corporation’s president was pretty satisfying. Now listening to the way Charity talked about it, he felt like an employee. He was indeed earning a huge sum of money, but he was racking his brain and working every day. On the other hand, Charity did not need to do a thing. She could get money just by sitting at home. That made Chester slightly jealous. However, he would not be willing to hand over the power he had. At that moment, the waiter served the food. Charity held a knife and fork and started cutting the lamb rack. She ate quickly but no
Chester spoke thoughtfully. Ken said puzzledly, “I don’t know where Eliza found that kind of people and the group of people who kidnapped Sarah previously. They don’t seem ordinary.”Chester thought of something. “Investigate Reborn. I need to know all the information about that person. Check her background and the first time she appeared. Investigate if anyone has taken photos of her true face overseas.”“I heard that she’s very secretive. She had on a mask and sunglasses the few times she appeared…”“Even the most careful can still make mistakes. As long as we’re willing to spend money and time, I don’t think we’ll be unable to find something.” Chester’s gaze darkened. Ken said, “You suspect that she’s not the real Reborn. Actually, I find it unbelievable too. Her background and Reborn’s are completely unrelated.”“That’s right. I think so too. Make a copy of Eliza’s information throughout these few years, including the films and dramas she took part in. Instead of her not be
“Your intuition isn’t wrong. We did know each other in our past lives.”Charity’s faint sigh rang. Even the smart Catherine was slightly stunned. At that moment, thousands of weird thoughts flashed across her head. She blurted out, “You can’t possibly have your previous life's memories with you, right?”After she spoke, she suddenly thought she might have become stupid. “I’m done for. I’ve become stupid lately.” Catherine touched her forehead out of speechlessness. “I almost believed you.”“I really have memories from my past life,” Charity said. “...”Catherine felt as if she had entered a supernatural fantasy drama. “Let me treat you and Freya to a meal tonight. There are some things that I’ve never told you guys. It’s time for you to know the truth. By the way, please don’t tell anybody else.” Charity heard no voices from the other end of the call. She found it funny. Those two people would be very shocked that night. After hanging up the call, Catherine pinched her
“Didn’t we just meet yesterday morning? We can see each other again after I return at night.” Catherine was not in the mood to deal with Shaun. “Go back and look after the kids.”Shaun said, “You can meet up with Eliza tomorrow too. Besides, you two have been meeting pretty often, right?”“No. We have something important going on.” Catherine hoped that nighttime would come immediately. The call ended with a beep. Shaun’s heart was twitching from jealousy. Eliza could not get a boyfriend, so she kept inviting his wife out. Ah, if he had any suitable guy friends, he had to introduce them to Eliza. Upon thinking of that, Shaun gave Ryan a call. “That friend of yours… Is Max having any progress with Eliza?”“Is your wife ignoring you tonight as well?” Ryan, who Freya had just rejected, was sulky. Shaun was stunned. He understood immediately. “Freya isn’t accompanying you tonight either?”“...”Shaun laughed. He strangely felt more at ease. At least he was not the only lonely
Seeing Catherine’s and Freya’s excited expressions, Charity simply took a sip of coffee. “Freya, in my past life’s memories, your boyfriend was still a sc*mbag. You married Rodney and divorced him. As for Cathy, you were still with Shaun. You two divorced because of Sarah’s interference too. The bad things that happened were still equally miserable.”Freya was disappointed. “Ah, is that so? Were our past lives the same as this life?”Catherine gave Charity a sidelong glance. “Eliza, are you lying to us? Is this talk about your previous life fake?”“I’m not lying to you guys. You’re the ones who are thinking about it the wrong way.”Charity laughed bitterly and put down her cup. She had a serious expression. “Actually… I’m Charity. I’m Charity Neeson.”“...”The private room was utterly silent for a while. Freya suddenly shuddered. “I feel so cold all of a sudden. Is the air conditioner on?”She trembled and scooted toward Catherine’s side. Although Charity was her friend, th
Freya and Catherine were both embarrassed.At that time, the two of them could not fend for themselves.Even if Charity had shown up, they would not have been able to help her. Charity said, “So all I could do was bear with it. I waited and took revenge using my own means.”Catherine sighed softly. “The means that you had taken revenge against Sarah and kidnapped her with the intention of torturing her to death.”Charity dropped her eyes. “As Sarah killed people using hypnosis, I had difficulty searching for evidence. Moreover, Rodney and Shaun kept speaking up for her at that time, so I had no other alternatives. I didn’t mind dying with her. If Freya hadn’t stopped me then, I wouldn’t be here telling you the truth.”“I see.” Freya saw the light. “When I found you that day, I was astounded by your gaze. It was so full of hatred for Sarah. You claimed to be Charity’s childhood friend, but we were also her friends. Honestly… we wouldn’t have been able to go as far as you. It turn
Catherine could totally relate to that.Some men were indeed scummy.“So… Charity, are you planning to take revenge for Eliza?” Catherine asked.Charity nodded. “I plan to stand up for Eliza.”“No wonder you suddenly showed up at the charity event organized by the Patterson family in the hotel a few days ago.” Freya’s interest was piqued. “Could you be planning to beat them at their own game?”“What do you think?” In fact, Charity could not make up her mind.However, Freya rolled her eyes at Catherine. “Cathy is very experienced in this aspect. Back then, she used such a method to take revenge on Shaun with the hopes of making him fall deeply in love with her. After that, she tried to destroy Shaun and Sarah’s relationship. In the end, she hurt herself, whereas Shaun slipped away and married Sarah. Hah.”Embarrassed, Catherine could not bear to recall it. “My case was different as I had feelings for Shaun. When I wanted to take revenge on him, I could not endure it. But it’s dif
“No wonder Ferra Film Group has been so powerful lately.” Freya suddenly felt discouraged. “I thought Freycatheli has been doing well, but compared to you both, it turns out I’m doing the worst.” “Why do you think so?” Charity laughed and then teased, “Perhaps you’ll be the prime minister’s wife in the future.”“Exactly.” Catherine agreed. “You found someone with great potential, and you should treasure him.”“Forget it. I’m not interested in being the prime minister’s wife. It’s too exhausting. I’d much prefer eating and having fun with my buddies.”After that, Freya slammed her hands on the table. “Shouldn’t we drink to celebrate the rebirth of our best friend?”“We can drink, but don’t you get drunk and expose my identity,” Charity reminded.“I got it.” Freya quickly zipped her mouth. “This matter will stay among the three of us…”“Actually, someone else knows about it…”“Who?” Freya and Catherine asked simultaneously.“Max.” With that, an affectionate look suddenly appear
