Charlotte’s POV"Hi, Miss Charlotte!" The young doctor opened the door, looked at my record, and said, "Yes, you can go home today. Don't worry about the bill; someone has already paid for it for you." I stood up, and picked my leather jacket in the corner. “Thank you, Doc.” He gave me a calling card, and said, “If you need help, you may call me through this business number.” I sighed as I took the card and put it in my bag. I read it slowly, gave him back the card, and told him, "Doctor Allan, I don't need to see a psychiatrist. Thank you for being considerate." "Well, you've been through a lot, and you were almost raped twice, so maybe you need it." "How did you know that?" I asked him with a frown. He quietly answered. "The man who paid your hospital bill wants you to go through therapy. I know what happened to you was very traumatic, you need to talk to a counseling---"“I can heal alone. I don’t need counseling. Thanks for the offer, but I really need to go.” I left the roo
Charlotte’s POVWhen I got to the place I had been renting for five months, I was shocked to see that Ralph had thrown all my clothes and bags into the street. He had a lot of cuts and marks on his face, and he yelled at me. "Well, the deal with Mr. Gallagher is over, and this place is mine again! So, you should go find another place to live that you can afford, you slut!" “Hey, can you please slow down, and don't throw away my things?!” He pointed to himself, “Mr. Gallagher treats me like an animal! so you deserved it—” “Well, you deserved it!” I said while picking up all of my things, and pants when I got up and glared at him with hate in my eyes. Ralph laugh out loud, “Fuck yourself, bitch! I don’t want to see your fucking face again!” I laughed at him, “Well, look at you! Do you want me to call Logan to end your life?” He stepped back angrily, and with a scared expression as he lowered down his gaze, “Fuck you, Charlotte!” I just smiled at him and took all my things with a
Charlotte's POV He might sound creepy, but I don't think he looks any creepier. He showed off his beautiful white teeth and raked his hand through his hair as he thought about where he had kept my necklace. I was shivering in front of him, and he looked at me from head to toe, rubbed his chin, and said, "I think you should rest first. I'll see you tomorrow. I still have to figure out where I put your necklace. I can't remember where I put it.""W-what?" I asked with wide eyes. He held out his hand and said, "It's okay, I'll find it. Don't fret..." I smiled at him, and he opened the door for me, “Good night,” I stepped inside, and felt better, then I turned my head to glance at him. “Thank you, Cedric….” He happily smiled at me, “Don’t worry, I got you.” Then I nodded my head and shut the door with a sigh of relief, because he was a real hero to me this time. He helped me and put me up in this expensive hotel for the night without asking for anything in return. I think he could
Charlotte’s POVI fixed my hair, adjusted my bathrobe, and glared at Logan, who had been looking at me the whole time. The driver then knocked on our window, and Logan rolled the window down. "Sir, someone is looking for Miss Charlotte." Logan's ears perked up and he asked, "What the hell!" But he already knew who it was. He got out of the car, and as he looked at the man in front of his car, I could hear him take a deep, angry breath. I stepped out of the car, and I swallowed my breath as my eyes landed on Cedric. He was with five police officers by his side, and he gazed at Logan and told him. "Let her go, and I'll let you go this time." It was not a request, it was a demand.Logan smiled at him as if he didn't care about the cops or Cedric's threatening look. "Have you forgotten who I am?!" Cedric said, "Yes, that's right. I didn't. You are the boss of the biggest crime ring in this country. You'd better die soon so you can't make more monsters in this world." They began excha
Charlotte’s POVHe smiled at me, led me to my hotel room, then sighed and said, "Call me if you need anything. I already told the security guard to be very wary, because Logan might come back and cause more trouble." “Cedric, I can’t thank you enough for your help.” He said, “Don’t mention it.” I gave him a shy smile as I’m about to close the door, and whispered softly, “Goodnight…” “I’ll see you tomorrow?” I didn't want to disappoint him, so I smiled, nodded, and hesitantly said, "Yes, sure." But the fact is that I wasn't sure whether or not I was going to see him again tomorrow since I didn't want to continue to make his life more difficult in any way. His help this night was more than enough for me to cherish.I took a few deep breaths and glanced at the bed as I pulled the door shut while wearing a glum expression on my face. After that, I touched my diamond necklace. I took a pillow with me and slept on the floor. I'm not sure why I was like this, but I find that when I slee
Charlotte’s POVBecause I was so hungry, I ate the apple pie he ordered and even drank his coffee since he didn't touch it. He smiled at me and asked, "Oh, you're hungry? Then you told me you weren't. I think you told me a lie." I used a towel to wipe my mouth and told her, "That's not a big deal. Thank you for the meal." I stood up and cleaned the table. "Well, you should get to work. I'll find you a nice place to stay. Ralph told me that he kicked you out of the house last night, so I punished him for that."I lowered my voice. “Why do you have to punish him? It was enough that you tortured him already and please don’t find a place for me, I’ll be staying with a friend in the meantime until I get my paycheck.” “Why do you not want me to help you? I’m just concerned about you and to think that you’re seeing Cedric—” I cut him off, “I’m not going to see him again.” When he heard that, he smiled. I was about to say something, but Amara called me away to help another customer. "I
Charlotte’s POV"Would I let you kiss me just because you bought me this place? Oh, no, not yet, not that fast...Logan." I moved away from him, stood up, and sighed. I tried to act brave so I wouldn't give in to his hungry, tempting lips, but I can't help but bite my lower lip when I think about him kissing me deeply and me melting into his arms.“Do you want to try it?” he asked as he kissed the back of my neck. I gave him a dirty look to tell him not to start it, and he sighed and said, "Okay, you win this time. But if I wanted that kiss, I wouldn't think twice about kissing you." I didn't look at him but smiled and groaned behind his back. My feet still hurt from all the work I did in the kitchen today. I entered the room and sat on the bed with my head down. I didn't realize he had followed me until he put his arm on the door and stared at me. “Are you tired?” I nod, “Yeah, But I can do this.” "Why don't you apply for a job that would fit you?" He asked. "I can't. My adoptiv
Charlotte’s POVI woke up feeling so sore, and my body felt heavy. I lost my balance when I got to the bathroom, and I found my panties and clothes there. Then I clean it and put it in the laundry. When I went to the kitchen, I was startled as I saw Logan drinking his coffee while reading the news on his phone.“Why are you still here?” He put his phone down, and walked towards me with a smirk on his face, "I told Ricardo to take care of all the things for me while I'm on my little holiday." I bit my lower back as I thought about what happened last night. It was surreal but it actually happened because the center part of my body felt sore. He grabbed my waist and kissed my lips, then asked. "Do you have a dress for tonight?" I was so busy that I almost forgot that today was Casey's Big Event, and now I have no idea what kind of event I was supposed to go to in the first place."I don't have anything to wear..." I replied with reluctance and then opened the refrigerator in search of
