He called her Charlotte and he was smiling brightly. Even if she was still nervous, she felt her racing heart slowing to the right tempo. But now she was confused.

"Come over here, let Grandpa see you”. Noah, Dalton's grandfather, was laughing heartily as he waved Charlotte over.

Charlotte pulled her hand from Dalton's hold and slowly walked to him. She kept her head up as he looked her from up to down. Once again, she was grateful that Dalton got this new dress for her. His mother was also dressed well, it was almost like they were having a party and not a family dinner.

"Good, this rascal is truly taking care of you. You can come to me if he bullies you”. Noah was satisfied that Charlotte looked good.

"She bullies me, grandfather”. Dalton told Noah.

"Stop complaining.” Noah snorted at Dalton before turning back to Charlotte and pointing at the chair close to him, “Sit down here and talk to me. It's been such a long time since I saw you. You've grown so much from the little girl

    “Grandkids, huh?”. With a yelp, Charlotte spun around to see that Dalton had pushed himself into the walk-in closet. He had changed out of the clothes he wore for dinner and was now putting on his pajamas. “Can't you knock?” Charlotte could not stop herself from glare at him for scaring her. "It is not my fault that you did not hear me come in, wife” His eyes were on her body.“Get out,” Charlotte spluttered in rage as she slapped her hand over her body. She just realized that she was wearing only a bra and panties. Dalton lazily relaxed on his wheelchair like he had no problems in the world. “There is no need to hide your body from me, wife. I've seen everything before but without the bra and panties.” "Stop calling me that,” Charlotte sneered at him, ignoring his remark about what she was wearing. Dalton cocked his head to one side, confused, “Stop calling you what?, wife?” “Yes, stop calling me that.” She would appreciate it if it came from someone else. The way he was pr

    “Hello?” Charlotte picked her office phone when it rang. It was from the receptionist at the front desk on the first floor. Maybe the CEO of the company Walker was going to be having a meeting with has arrived. "Miss Cooper, there are some people here to see you. Your mother and sister”. The receptionist told her. "Mother and sister?”. Charlotte asked. Since when did she have a mother who was not in the hospital and a sister who she had never met before? Wait? She hoped it wasn't who she was thinking? It could be…. “What are their names?”. "Ma'am please, what is your name?” Charlotte heard the receptionist asking before she began talking to her again, “ They said Marie and Bethany. They also said you should come down quickly because they have something important to tell you concerning your father”. "I don't know any Bethany and Amarie. They are in no way related to me and as far as I know, my mother is at the hospital. Tell the security to show them out. They are fraud”. Afte

    “Yes, now I remember where I've seen you” Angela snapped her fingers, her eyes shining with excitement, “Aren’t that actress?” "She's an actress?” Charlotte's colleagues asked in unison as they began to take out their phones to take pictures of Amarie. They wanted to be able to brag that they met an actress even if they could not recognize her. They also wanted to tell people that they were there when an actress dragged her daughter in front of her work place. "She was an actress. She left the entertainment industry as soon as she was exposed as the mistress of a rich man. The man was married, and she has been having an affair with him behind his wife's back, just a year after their marriage. I'm sure Charlotte is the daughter of the man's wife”. Angela has no qualms about exposing Amarie. She did not like Charlotte, but Amarie and Bethany reminded her of her stepmother and step-sister and their evil deeds. They constantly tried to attack her and that was why she also left home a

    It was happening again. She came to work today and everyone's eyes were on her. They already knew who she was. She spent the night tossing and turning as she pondered on what to do. Amarie and Bethany have always come to her place of work to attack her, but no one has ever recognized them. Or maybe it was because those other people did not care enough to pay close attention and no one recognized Amarie as a former actress. She had thought that Angela was helping her out, but when she got home and thought deeply about what happened, she realized that she was mistaken. The Angela she knew would not help her no matter what. In fact, Angela would have been happy to see her being dragged. She only stepped in to make matters worse. Everyone would be intrigued about what happened and most of them have already taken pictures and videos. She knew undoubtedly that all those videos and pictures would be uploaded on the internet and would make people go and dig up her past. Anything that has h

    Walker placed his hands on top of his desk and leaned forward. He had been keeping this in his mind for a long time, but he was pushed to tell her. He could not have her married to someone else when he wanted her. "I have known you since you were sixteen”. "Pardon?” Charlotte felt like she couldn't hear properly. He had surprised her twice this morning. First, he had asked her to divorce Dalton and now, he was telling her that he knew her when she was sixteen. "Yeah,” Walker nodded his head, “Not even when you're sixteen. I knew you before you turned sixteen, but we officially met on your sixteenth birthday.” Charlotte's brow furrowed in deep thoughts at his words. They met when she was sixteen? She could not remember ever meeting him. Hell, she could not even remember anything that had ever happened to her in her younger days. The only memories she had left were of when Amarie showed up at her father's mansion with Bethany in tow. She believed that because it was a deep scar o

    “What on Earth were the both of you thinking when you went to Charlotte's working place to cause trouble?” Hughes yelled in anger as he swept everything from his study desk to the floor. Amarie flinched back in fear. She has always been able to manipulate Hughes and his family, but one thing she knows for sure is that he won't hesitate to push them aside if it means making more money. He would pick money over both she and Bethany. “We were not causing trouble. You don't know everything that happened. Charlotte was the one feeling so big because she got married into the Moore's family, and she also insulted mother. We were just paying her a friendly visit since we can't go to her house. We wanted to eat with her and get to know if she and Dalton's relationship is progressing alright,” Bethany briefly explained. She had never seen her father this angry before. He has never raised his voice at her, and it was all her faults that he was angry with her.If she had listened to her mother

    “Oh, I see that the first young Miss of the Enfield's family was scolded and fired this morning for bringing her family's shit to her place of work. Are you going to be doing the walk of shame today?” Angela asked, drawing the name; first young Miss of the Enfield's family as she popped the gum in her mouth.Charlotte rolled her eyes as she resumed walking to her desk. She wondered the expression on her face that must have given away that she was scolded or fired. Now Angela knew her father's name and was addressing her with it, albeit sarcastically. Once she left her father and began to attend college and then started working, she stopped using his name and adopted her mother's maiden name; Cooper.“What? Do you need my help with packing your things?” Angela asked as she propped herself on Charlotte's desk.Charlotte ignored her sarcasm and powered on her computer, “I don't have your time, Angela and no, I don't need your help with packing” Charlotte was right to think that Angela w

    Charlotte's heart was beating fast, and her palms were sweaty as the hospital building appeared in her line of sight. She seemed to have forgotten when she woke up this morning that her mother had developed the habit of watching the news and staying current since she got admitted to the hospital. Her mother would even find out what happened before Dalton did. She was sure that her mother waited for her to close from work before calling. Charlotte felt like a sheep to the slaughter as she walked into the hospital and in the direction of the elevator, this would take her to the floor where her mother's room was located. She was grateful that she had eaten. If not, she was so sure that she would have immediately fainted after receiving her mother's call. Her palms were clammy and sweaty as she drew close to her mother's room.Charlotte hesitated when she got to the door, and she could not bring herself to push the door open with her hands, which were suddenly too heavy. She could feel

    “Does your mother know about this? Has she seen you?” Charlotte raised her head from his chest to ask.Dalton nodded as he stared down at her while slowly stroking her hair, “Yes, she has seen me?”“Eh? But how?” Charlotte asked with a frown. Did he not just return back or did he…?“I went to see her, my father and your mother before I came here.” Dalton answered.“Oh?” Her mouth formed the sound, “They must have also been surprised right?” “They surely were, my mother cried too.”Charlotte's lips lifted in a small smile, “I'm glad that she is happy.”Like her, Sarah has been worried sick about Dalton throughout the time he was receiving treatment. She hasn't only been worried about the pain he must be feeling but about the fact that it might be too late, he wouldn't be able to walk ever and all the pain would be for nothing. Of course, it didn't come as a surprise to hear that Sarah cried after seeing Dalton. Any normal mother would.“It's also a good thing you went to see her feist

    Charlotte could not stop the little moan of pleasure that escaped from her throat when Dalton's hand came up and his thumb grazed her nipple, which immediately hardened. She thought his hand would stay on her breast, but it moved to grab her neck softly as her lips continued to move over hers. Dalton slowly pushed her back until her back was on the bed, and he was laying over her, their lips still locked in a passionate and drugging kiss that made Charlotte's toes curl. The kiss ended as abruptly as it began. Charlotte moaned in loss when Dalton slowly withdrew from her. She gazed up at him with watery eyes.“You want more?” Dalton asked her with a sly smile. His hand was still on her neck, and he flexed his fingers before he moved it to press on the pulse in her neck. “Huh” Charlotte nodded with a soft hum before she could stop herself and Dalton was on her once again, kissing her with reckless abandon until they were both breathless and aching for more. Until the hard length of h

    She finally got to see Dalton's face after seven months of them being apart and of her reminding herself of what her husband looked like by always staring at his picture frame before going to bed and every morning when she woke up. Charlotte had now fully blended in with the other workers at the office and she was no longer treated differently. Everything was well now and it was just remaining for Dalton to come back home and everything would be perfect. She went to bed early that night because she had important things to do at the office. She didn't know that waking up early would mean waking up to her husband lying beside her on the bed. Why didn't anyone tell her that he was done with his treatment and was going to be returning back soonest? Imagine Charlotte's shock when she woke up with someone in bed with her. She screamed as she jumped into a sitting position, thrashing around as she attacked the person. How did he get to her room and then to her bed when there were guards

    For three good days, her father stayed in front of Dalton's gate with the reporters, waiting for her to open the gate for him. At one point, Charlotte thought that her mother would break and go out to speak with him but her mother was too busy trying to beat Mrs Brittany in the game of cheers. Her father fainted. She sat there, clutching Dalton's pillow, and watching, together with the millions of people who were following the news as her father's eyes rolled into the back of his head and he collapsed to the ground. He had been standing there, refusing to eat or drink or even sit down.. maybe he hoped that if she and her mother watched him punishing himself, they would take pity on him and come out but he was wrong. Four years ago, it would have worked but not now. Not after everything he has done, not after sending her and her mother away. It was funny how the human mind worked. He left them but now that he found out that he had been living with a fraud, he remembered her and her

    Charlotte and her mother remained indoors for the next few days with their eyes glued to their television screen. They'd seen the DNA results that the nurse from the hospital where the DNA test was taken uploaded online. They also watched as Hughes had Amarie thrown out of the house without a penny, and also how Amarie went to Charles's house in search of Bethany who refused to step out to speak with her. Reporters kept following them like flies following corpses to the grave and aring everything.Soon, Hughes called the cops on Amarie and they went to bundle her away from Charles's porch where she was camping. Charlotte couldn't help but give a small laugh as she watched her Amarie struggling to be free from the cops to run away but it was already too late for her. Only Hughes knew why he did not have Bethany arrested along with her Amarie but Charlotte did not care. She knew that her father wanted Amarie to think she could deceive him and go scot-free. He gave her hope then dashed

    "Ahhh" Bethany yelled in pain as something heavy hit her on the head and she felt her skin burst open and something hot and wet trickled down. She did not need anyone to tell her that it was her blood, she was bleeding. Her head had burst open. She burst into tears as she curled up on the floor. She knew that she was going to die today and if she survived it, she would surely die of humiliation later. She couldn't seem to feel the bag she brought from the bag that contained the little bit of cash she wanted to use to escape anymore. That man must have succeeded in taking it away from her. "Leave the way""Get out of the way" There were screams of pain and panic and soon, Bethany could not feel anything that was being thrown at her again, did it stop?She felt a hand touch her softly causing her to flinch and a familiar voice whispered her name, "Bethany, hey,"Bethany froze before slowly taking her hand that she's been using to protect her face off and lifting her head.

    Bethany sighed in relief when she was able to get out of the hospital without Hughes guard catching up with her. She was sure that he would be on the phone right now with Hughes, delivering the results of the DNA, and Bethany did not care. All she cared about was now leaving the country immediately, but she did not have any of her documents with her. Bethany felt like stomping her foot, but that was not going to help. She needed to be calm so that she could think straight. She looked left, then right before her eyes fell on a bank, and before she could stop herself, she was walking down the road to the bank.She was going to make a small withdrawal, and she was going to be leaving the country by sea. She still needed her documents for that, but she could just bribe them to let her get on the ship. It was much easier this way because Bethany knew that she might not be able to get back inside Hughes house, and she did not want her mother clinging to her at this moment. A tiny smile o

    “Brute!” Hughes yelled for his guard, who had been standing by the door and waiting for his instructions.“Sir” “Drag her out, now!” Hughes bellowed as he pointed at Bethany, who immediately shrank back in fright as if trying to enter the wall behind her. “We are going to the hospital to run a test on her. I want to know if she is mine or if she belongs to that bastard!” Hughes did no longer care. If Bethany turned out to be his, he would apologize to her and get her a very expensive gift then he would think about the right punishment to give to Collins for deceiving him and trying to ruin his family. But for now, he needed to make sure he’d not been deceived by Bethany and Amarie.“You cannot” Amarie yelled anxiously as she threw herself on Bethany. She stood in front of Bethany with her hands stretched out protectively, like a mother Hen protecting it chicks from an eagle. At Amarie's action, Hughes saw red, “Shove her aside and take the girl away,”That's exactly what Brute did,

    “Mom,” Charlotte snapped, “You won't be going back to him right? This was the man who not only cheated on you a year after your marriage to him but also threw you and your child out when his mistress and her daughter arrived.” Her eyes were red with tears and her heart filled with anger as she thought back to the past; the day her father threw her and her mother out. The memory was still fresh in her head. It was the day after her eighteenth birthday. Bethany has caused a scene, wanting to wear the same clothes as her for her birthday. She didn't care, but just a day before the party, Bethany had thrown a fuss crying about how her dress was ruined.Bethany came out that day with her blue dress that had been torn in different places with scissors and, in front of everyone, had told her that 'she did not have to ruin her dress because she did not want them to wear the same thing'. Charlotte has tried to deny it, but no one believed her.With the other stunts that Bethany and Amarie had
