Charlotte was shocked.Suddenly, she was pulled back to her senses. Nervously, she looked into Darrenâs eyes. His face was grim and his brows were knitted together.âCharlotte!â Simon knocked on the door again, harder this time.Charlotte wanted to answer him, but then Darren held her neck. This time, he has lost his patience. He no longer wanted to tease her by kissing her. As if to show ownership of her, Darren kissed her overbearingly. She tried to protest, but Darren swallowed all the words she wanted to say. He was kissing her hard and passionately and Charlotte felt as if he intended to swallow her whole.âSay something, Charlotte. I know you are there!â Simon said impatiently.However, Darrenâs kiss was so fierce that she almost lost her breath. She gripped his shirt, trying to push him away.âStop!â Charlotte pleaded as soon as she had the chance to breathe.However, Darren put his hand on her hips, drawing her closer toward him. His rock-hard d*ck made her feel like her body
Samantha went to Jenniferâs ward at the hospital to pay a visit to her and saw Lillian standing outside the door.Samantha walked over and greeted her with a smile, âLillian, Iâm here to visit Jennifer.ââSamantha, you are here.â Lillian said with a forced smile.âHow is Jennifer doing?â Samantha asked.âShe still had not woken up yet. The doctor said that the operation was a success, but he also said that its going to take a while before she regained conscience.â Lillian answered.âDonât worry, Lilian. Jennifer is a strong woman. Pretty soon, she will be up and about before we know it.â Samantha said, attempting to comfort her.âYou are right. She will be okay.â Lillian nodded in agreement.âLillian, is it okay if I go inside and see her?â Samantha asked while handing her the gift she had bought.âIâm sure sheâll be happy to know that you care about her so much.â, Lillian said, with a brink of tears.âWhy isnât Charlotte here? I heard that she is the reason Jennifer fell down. She mu
On the other side, just as Charlotte gets off work, Edward comes to the company. A faint smile tugged at his lips as if he had been in a good mood.âCharlotte, I am here to pick you up.â He said lightly.âI envy you, Dad. You donât even have to go to work.â Charlotte complained while rubbing her stiff and sore shoulders.Edward chuckled as he said, âWell, I have been busy most of my life. I deserve to rest now. I will soon hand over my entire company to you and enjoy my retirement.âHearing that Charlotte sighed helplessly. Then, she picked up her things and left the company with Edward.âYou know that Iâm not as competent as you are,â she said.âI beg to disagree. You have been great. Well, at least you are better than Adam,â Edward said, as he shook his head disapprovingly.The smile on Charlotteâs face disappeared at the mention of Adamâs name. Annoyed, she gritted her teeth and muttered, âThat man would do whatever it takes to achieve his goal.ââYes, he is a sucker for overnight
Once Darren left the hospital, he drove to Samanthaâs clinic.âDarren what pleasant surprise! What are you doing here? Iâm currently making a soup for your Grandma!â Samantha said as she hurriedly approached him, with her eyes filled with affection.However, looking at the fascinating affection that she canât hide from anyone, Darren feels annoyed. He used to think of Samantha as gentle, considerate, and friendly, so he let Charlotte be friends with her. But he never expected that Samantha was a sly vixen. He felt angry for being so ignorant.However, Darren shined his complex feelings about this whole matter and just put on a smile. âSamantha, my grandma just woke up. Her brain is probably scrambled right now, which led her to believe that you are someone else. I hope it doesnât bother you.â he said.Samantha waved her hand in dismissal and chuckled, âOh, itâs fine. Itâs my pleasure to help you out.âThen Darren sat on the sofa and have a sigh.Seeing this Samantha became nervous as
The moment Charlotte woke up, silence greeted her. She couldnât see anything as her eyes were covered with a black cloth and her mouth was sealed with tape as well.All Charlotte could remember was that when she left the hospital, a man wearing a baseball cap entered the elevator with her. When she reached the underground parking lot, someone behind her covered her mouth and nose with the cloth and a pungent odor made her faint.âSo I was kidnapped!â Charlotte strained almost every nerve in her body when she realized the fact. However, she tried her best not to panic. After all, only when she could stay calm would she be able to think of a way to escape.Based on what she could feel, it seemed like she was lying on a bed and she could feel a soft quilt on her. However, she didnât dare to move and just listened to the sounds coming from the outside in silence.There were other people in this room with her she could hear the sound of the chair moving. Then, someone opened the door, and
Charlotteâs hands were tied up again. But this time it was not a lot more sung, as if Boris was trying to cut off her blood circulation or something. Unfortunately, she had little strength left to resist him and once again, she was blindfolded by a black cloth.âStop pretending bitch! Even though you are not a virgin, you have a hot figure. I donât mind sleeping with you.â Boris drawled, a malevolent smile on his face.Suddenly, he picked her up and threw her on the bed. Charlotte landed with a terrified shout and bounced twice before she felt another presence on the bed. The pervert began groping her, his hands caressing her body roughly.Terror, unlike anything she ever felt before gripped her blood. âLet go of me. Donât touch me.â Charlotte yelled at the top of her lungs, horror choking her, even as she tried to fight off his repulsive touch.Boris leaned over and kissed her face, ears, and neck. With terror still surging through her veins, Charlotte sought him off in the only way
After leaving the police station, Darren heads back to the Venzor mansion.âDaddy, you are back!âThe moment he entered the house, the Twins ran towards him and threw themselves into his arms. Aaron, who was following right behind them, looked behind Darren, and his eyes filled with disappointment.âDaddy, why isnât Mommy with you? You are so useless!â Aaron shook his head, sighed, and walked away with his hands behind his back.âUseless!â Much like their big brother, Evan, and Ryan also looked at Darren and shook their heads.The kids were unaware of what Charlotte had gone through.Darren chuckled at them and whispered, âWell, how about I take you guys to your motherâs house? How does that sound?ââThat sounds great, Dad!â They said in unison.âHowever, Mommy is injured, so you guys have to behave yourself around her. Make sure that you donât make her angry, you got that?â Darren said.They nodded and didnât follow Darren out.âDarren its very late. Where are you taking the kids?â A
âExcuse me,â Darren said as he got up and went to the balcony to answer the phone.âThis better be important Corey,â Darren said coldly.âDarren, Adamâs reputation is at rock bottom. He has no way out. Several cooperative banks have rejected his request for a loan. Hell, even the Wilson Group has made it clear that they have no intention of helping Adam! Edward must have ordered it. All the small companies that Adam invested in before have gone bankrupt. The only financial asset he has left are his share in the Wilson Group. To make matter worse, he wants to put them for collateral to some illegal banks, just so he could get loan,â Corey explained.âTake all the shares. Leave him nothing.â Darren commanded.âAll of them? Adam may not have that many shares, but itâs still going to cost a lot of money.â Carey said tentatively.âYes, I want all of them no matter what the cost. I want that bastard, Adam to lose everything he has!ââYou are willing to do anything for Charlotte, huh? You ar
Darren carried Charlotte to the suite upstairs of the hotel near the church, where the reception was held. Inside, he placed Charlotte on the bed while he sat on the edge of the bed and said, âWhen are you planning to open your eyes?âCharlotte kept her eyes closed and held her breath nervously, not daring to open her eyes.âWell, itâs good things you that you donât want to wake up!âBefore Charlotte could even begin to understand what he meant, she felt his warm breath seep into the skin on her face. Charlotte opened her eyes and met Darrenâs deep-set smiling gaze. His face was inches away from her and he was about to kiss her. Fortunately, he stopped the second she opened her eyes.Seeing his smile made Charlotte excited. âYou know that I just pretending?âDarren didnât answer the questions. âWere you aware that I was outside at the time?âCharlotte couldnât respond to his query, so she just looked at him blankly. She had won the bet. At first, Charlotte just hoped that Stella could
Today was Peter and Annaâs wedding day.Darren came to the villa early in the morning to pick up Charlotte. However, Charlotte didnât want to show up with him in the same place.âCharlotte, if you donât want to see news about us breaking up tomorrow morning, then you had better come with me.âEven if their relationship was on the verge of breaking right now, the truth remained that the public still saw them as a loving couple. Though Charlotte was uncomfortable about the idea, she had no choice but to go to the party with Darren.When they entered the banquet hall, Darren wrapped his arm around her waist and pressed her body against her.The fabric of Charlotte's dress was thin, so when his palm landed on her waist, Charlotteâs body temperature rose and she felt her blood coursing through her veins.All the other guests at the wedding looked at them with envy. Teasing and sighing at how sweet they were.Charlotte was so embarrassed that she turned to him and said, âLet me go, will you
Peter was right behind the door when he saw Stella badgering Darren. He watched as Darren pushed her away and ran after Charlotte.Stella fell to the ground, but she got up held onto Darrenâs lap, and continued begging regardless of how humiliating her act was.âDarren, where are you going? Donât go! Please.ââLet me go,â Darren growled. In an act of desperation, Stella shook her head, held on to him, and refused to let go. She was no longer the proud woman she once was.âDarren, Iâm begging you. Just give me a chance to be with you!âFinally losing his patience, Darren pushed her away from him and stopped her before she could latch him again.âStella, you have no idea why Iâm letting you show your face to me. Itâs not because you are my friend, nor itâs because I want to keep some sort of connection to you.ââThen why?â Stella asked with tears in her eyes.Peter didnât hear what Darren said in the end. He saw how despair consumed Stella and it showed on her face. She fell on her knee
âIts fine. Rose and I share a birthday. Charlotte is a good friend with her, so Iâm sure she will be willing to celebrate her birthday.â Stella said firmly.At that moment, Dora crap out by Stella so well-informed. âAnd she is so adamant on getting her hands on Darren.âThe more Dora thought about it, the more she sensed something was amiss.As soon as Dora got home, she told Charlotte everything that Stella asked her to do.Charlotte pondered for a moment and said, âYou should ask him directly. He can make decisions on his own.ââArenât you worried that rumors would circulate if he attended her birthday party?ââHe probably wonât go,â Charlotte replied after some consideration.Dora nodded in agreement.The next morning, Dora asked Darren for his opinion. He just looked at her, and asked, âWhat did Charlotte say?ââShe said that itâs up to you,â Dora answered.âUp to me?â Darren frowned in confusion.âYes, but she also said that he probably wonât go,â Dora added.âIs that so? I will
âBut I canât stand it anymore, baby! Just let me fuck you, okay?â Darren lifted her chin with his finger and begins sucking on the tip of her tongue.Everything he did felt so good that Charlotte eventually gave in. He began caressing her tits, rubbing her nipples, and then pulling them. Soon, Darren loosened his grip on them. Charlotteâs breasts jiggled and bounced after he let them go.âUgh,â A moan escaped Charlotteâs mouth, completely arousing Darren. He pressed his body against Charlotte. Thereafter, Charlotte felt he is huge manhood rubbing against her vagina. As Darren kept moving, Charlotte's desire grew, and she could no longer think of anything else.âCharlotte, can I?â Darren pressed his manhood against her, making her wetter by the second.âDarren, I want It. Give it to me.â Charlotte had no strength to hold back his neck. She wanted to grab something, but all she could do was to randomly wave her hands in the air.âWhat do you want me to give you baby? Tell me.â Darren be
After the meal, Darren touched Charlotte's forehead to check her temperature again and pulled her out of the Starlight restaurant.âCome with me to my office.ââBut I wanna go home and rest,â Charlotte complained.âWell, you can sleep inside my office, too. Come on!â Darren put his hand on her shoulder and gently pushed her to his car.When Charlotte got into the car, she was about to fasten her seat belt, but then Darren leaned into it and fastened it for her. The tenderness in his eyes made Charlotte blush.Darren then cupped her cheeks, smiled at her, and leaned closer to her face. âKiss me!â he said.âHuh?âJust before Charlotte could gather her composure, he lifted her chin and kissed her lips. Charlotte held her breath nervously too anxious to make any noise.It was already lunchtime, so many people were coming and going outside the place. Their car park was visible to many people. Passerby could easily spot them if they would look at them.Charlotte didnât want other people wat
Because of how he reacted, the doctor felt tense and uncertain about what to do.Charlotte's face palmed and said to the doctor, âHonestly, I am feeling alright already. Iâm sure I will get better after taking the antipyretic injections. Thank you, doctor!âThe doctor nodded with a smile and left the room.Once he was gone, Darren sat back in his chair and directed his attention back to Charlotte. âYou really canât take your eyes off a handsome man when you see one, can you?ââWhat are you talking about? I was not looking at him.âHe was so angry that he was practically snarling at Charlotte. âAre you not attracted to me anymore, Charlotte?âThe look of jealousy and frustration on his face was amusing. He looks so childish!Once Charlotte's infusion was done, Darren held her out of the hospital while holding her wrist. By the time they reached the gate, their fingers were already interlocked. Charlotteâs heart felt a sense of comfort and warmth as she held his hand with him.After the
For a long time, Anna I stood frozen on the spot with her hand hovering above the door.Eventually, she dropped her hand with a sigh. She found a corner by the porch and curled up in it to cry her eyes out. the crowd.After a long time, Charlotte came back and was surprised to see her at the door. âAnna?âAnna looked up at her, her cheeks red with embarrassment. It was indeed abrupt for him to come here, but she had nowhere else to go. âCharlotte, can you take me in for one night?â She wiped the tears on her face and asked brazenly.Charlotte gaped at her for a few seconds before walking up to her. She held her hand and took it. âCome in!â Charlotte said.Charlotte asked the maid to cook some soup and bought it for her.Seeing the steaming hot soup in front of her, Anna felt the warmth and acceptance of the family, which was also something she earned for most. Anna picked up the bowl and felt a lump in her throat.Charlotteâs three kids sat opposite and looked at Anna curiously. Anna
Stella called Peter out of the blue and asked him to come to the bar where she was and keep her company.During her drunken speech, she broke into sobs several times.When Peter hung up the phone, he hesitated for a while but eventually decided to drive to the bar.Judging by Stellaâs near-incoherent speech, she was very drunk. Not only that, she was a drunk woman in a bar alone. The number of things that could happen was too high for Peter to even contemplate.When Peter got there, he saw many empty bottles on her table. Stella was in the process of pouring more wine when Peter walked up to her and confiscated the bottle.âYou have enough to drink!âWith tears streaming down her face, Stella turned to look at him in disappointment. âWhy are you here?ââWho else could it be if it were not for me?â Peter asked him confused.âI donât want you. I want Darren.â And all of a sudden, Stella grabbed his shirt and looked up at him with hatred and determination.Her reaction pissed Peter off a
