Charlotte’s POVTwo days later, Wet sweat and blood mixed together as I fell to the ground and covered my head as he prepared to strike me. As I winced from the pain of his kicks to my stomach, he remarked, "That's what I told you, you are weak." "I'm not good at this, I can't learn it in one day!" He screamed at me, “Then you need to focus!” I sat on the floor, rubbed my face irritatedly, and felt like a failure. How on earth could I be so good this time and not get distracted? I sighed and wiped my sweat from dropping on the floor.Liam walked towards me, put out his hand, and said, "It's okay..." I looked up, met his gaze, and said, "I'll do better next time." He smiled at me and said, "Sorry." Then I grabbed his hand and pulled myself up. Liam gulped as he looked at my lips as we both stared at each other. He turned away and said, "Lunch is ready. Let's eat it before it gets cold." I bit my lower lip, and said, “Oh yeah….” When we went outside, Arman had just come in from
Logan’s POV"Still no news?!" I asked each of my men one by one, and they were all quiet because they were afraid of what they would say. Every single day, I look for Charlotte because I miss her so much when she's not with me. I have been crazy-crazy searching the town and the whole country for her since the night she left, but there is still no news about her. Everyone thought that she had died, but I couldn't believe that.I saw her that night….Unfortunately, I missed my chance to save her when I saw the unknown man shoot her twice. After getting to the bridge, I jumped off and swam across the river to look for her body, but I couldn't find her. It happened so quickly that it felt like a thunder strike.“Charlotte!” I screamed on top of my lungs, and shed tears for her. My men jumped off the bridge to help me get out of the water. Ricardo told me, "We already searched the river, and we think she's gone because the water is moving so fast that we can't see her anymore." "Call the
Charlotte’s POVLiam's wife just walked in and glared at me from head to toe. She got so mad that she walked up to me and slapped me in the face without saying a word. Liam stopped her. "Nicole! What is wrong with you?! Are you crazy?! What the fuck!" "Well, that's why you don't have time for me—you're busy with your mistress!" "Nicole! No, she's not my mistress, and I don't have a mistress. She's on my team! I'm infiltrating the mob, and I need her to take me to one of the dons!" My cheek hurt from the slap I got from Liam's wife, so I rubbed my face gently while staring at her. I saw that she was embarrassed and had her hand over her mouth. She then walked over to me and tried to make things right. "I'm sorry about the slap. I'm sorry I hit you so hard. Are you okay?" I shook my head, "No, I'm not okay." She smiled at me and asked the maid, "Maid, could you give me a cold compress? I think she needs one for her face." "Yes, Ma'am." the maid said, and went to the kitchen.I sig
Charlotte’s POVI took Angel with me because I couldn't hold back my anger as I looked at Arman's dead body on the floor. Putting her in the back seat, I drove her to Liam's house, where Nicole was already there and the way she cried, it reminded me of something that happened a few years ago, a painful past that I couldn't forget.She was crying softly, and sobbing in the backseat as I looked at her face. I couldn’t imagine that she lost both of her parents already. I said, “Angel, you know that your father loves you a lot. Then I want you to be strong this time, you can cry for as long as you want. But your father wants you to be strong, and tough.” She nodded her head, and wiped her tears away with her shaky hands. I dropped her off at Nicole’s house, and Nicole embraced Angel tightly, and asked, “Are you okay, baby? Oh my god, I am so sorry….” I stepped back to my car, and put a cap on my head, and Nicole called my name, “Charlotte, where are you going? You have to wait for Liam
Logan’s POVRicardo exclaimed, "Bro! She's fucking alive!" Then we chased Charlotte through the streets of New York. When we got to the chaotic market, I saw a group of guys looking for my wife. I pulled out my gun and began shooting them. "Ricardo, fuck them," Everyone in the market was fleeing, and it turned out to be such a fuckchaos that it was impossible for me to see Charlotte in the middle of all of the other people who were pressed together. Then Evan and Ricardo finished the enemies while I was busy looking for Charlotte. I saw her stopping a cab in the corner, and she glanced at me with hate in her eyes, then left. I stopped and put my gun inside my pocket, and called my driver. Evan and Ricardo arrived, and they asked, “Why do you stop? Did she get away this time? again?” “I can’t chase a fucking cab, dude. I need a car, don’t worry, my drive is coming.” I said. “Why is she running away?” Evan asked. Ricardo replied, “Do you see all the people we killed back there, tha
Charlotte’s POVThe need to learn more about my dad's death came over me all of a sudden. Fabian Collins is capable of doing anything he can just to escape death, but suddenly, the news shocked my whole world. "The last time I checked, he was on a business trip..." I muttered, staring in horror at Logan through tear-filled eyes.And here I was, thinking everything was OK, when in fact, it's been three months since he's been home, and Luca has already taken on the mantle of my father's legacy.He said, "I'm sorry for your loss." Then he touched my hand, kissed the back of my hand, and looked right into my eyes with his warm eyes. I withdrew and pulled him away, saying, "Please leave. You're not going to help me anyway, so why bother?" He said, “I want to help you this time, I want to know who’s the mastermind behind all of this.” "You were not with me when I asked for your help. You told me you wouldn't help me because it could start a war within the group and the people who run it
Charlotte’s POVI stare at the blank wall with a blank look on my face as I think about everything that has happened to me. Even my lousy past doesn't help me feel any better now. "You're free now..." Liam told me as he opened my cell door. I stood up with a sigh and asked, "You called him, did you?"He nodded, and said, “Yes, he’s the only person who can help you right now, Charlotte. Your husband.” I rolled my eyes at him, and said, “I don’t need his help, what I want to know who’s the mysterious man, and who the fuck killed my father….maybe its still the same man?!” Liam said, “I’m sure of that. I’ll keep you posted, but have you taken a look at the document that I sent to you, right?” “Yeah.” "I'll look into this man. Mr. Elliot Peters. Yesterday, that stupid jerk was caught speeding. I have no idea where he has been, but I need to know where the hell he was when Arman died.""Do you believe he is the killer?" "Maybe you can find out the truth if you can talk to him. So I wa
Charlotte’s POV“I need weapons, wealth, and an informant or two to help me track down the killer." I stated solemnly, and Felicity slowly blinked her eyes before opening her purse to get a pen and a check.Then she wrote something on the check and gave it to me, asking, "Is that enough for you to catch the killer?" I looked at the seven-digit number and smiled at her, "Yes, Felicity. Thanks a lot." She said, "Oh, please call me grandma, I am your grandma." "Thanks, Grandma." I stood up, winked at her before leaving the dining area, went to my room, and grabbed my bag for another adventure today. She kissed my cheek, “Go, and update me when you get the money.” I wore black trousers and a black leather jacket as I stepped outdoors, and Casey followed close after, clearly wondering where I was heading. She came up behind me and asked, "Where are you going?" I tried to avoid her as much as possible. "I saw that grandma gave you something....what is it? How much money did she give to
