After lifting her face to the fullest extent, he tightened his powerful grasp all of a sudden.“Aah!” The sudden assault of pain caused Charlotte to return to her senses instantly.Immediately afterward, she saw him open his pearl-white teeth and thin lips, and a cold voice hit her face like a ruthless blizzard.“Sotiria, is this the routine that you used on all those men in the past?”Charlotte was rendered speechless, her eyebrows twitching repetitively.An ominous feeling spread like a fog in her heart.Zachary continued to explain in the next second, “That little trick of yours, you might be able to fool others with it, but not me. What happened just now was not an accident. You and the woman from the saloon on the second floor are in cahoots.”‘Oh my God!’Charlotte’s eyes widened while her jaw shivered. She was so scared that she could not even utter a single word.‘Zachary! Although he’s been dead and living like a zombie without any feeling or emotion, his IQ hasn’t go
“Hah!” Lucas did not know how to react to Charlotte’s reply. “Ms. Green, don’t feel too good about yourself. You obviously just screwed yourself up just now, okay? Let me tell you, even if Second Master got married to any other woman, he wouldn’t have an extramarital affair. Even if Second Master had fallen for you back then, it’s no exception, unless...”Charlotte asked immediately, “Unless what?”Lucas rubbed his oversized earrings. “Unless Charlotte comes back from the dead.”Charlotte looked at Lucas in a daze while tons of emotions were surging in her heart.Lucas sighed and continued. “Unfortunately, Mrs. Connor has died. Even if someone were to have a second life, it has been more than four years. Mrs. Connor might have been reincarnated as another baby. Sotiria, I would advise you to give up. Don’t waste all your energy for color again.”After saying that, he opened the door and got into the car.Charlotte lifted her eyebrows confidently, her eyes filled with determinatio
This was also the first time Charlotte had met Lorraine after her memory came back to her.Seeing her, Charlotte instantly returned to her senses as if a pail of iced water was poured directly on top of her head. She pushed the car door to open it, and the corners of her lips were lifted sarcastically. “Lory, there’s no need to throw me such a huge ceremony even if you plan to welcome your sister-in-law back to Rothesay, right? My body won’t suffer much when you crash into me, but your body is so delicate. You’re the new daughter-in-law of the family, so it’d be bad if you were to hurt yourself through this accident.”“Cut the bullsh*t!” Lorraine glared at Charlotte, her beautiful eyes filled with resentment. “Let me ask you, what on earth are you planning to do!?”“Huh!?” Charlotte pretended to be confused. “Why don’t I understand you? What do you mean by what I am planning to do?”“You’re still pretending!” Lorraine was so angry that her voice sounded sharp, and her whole body wa
“About that...” Lorraine was rendered speechless for a while. It took her at least three seconds before she could catch her breath and put forward her lame argument. “Sotiria, I don’t care about what you say. I’m telling you solemnly, leave Rothesay and return to Bay City to give birth to a baby for my brother in peace. Otherwise, I’ll not be polite to you.”“Hah! You really did scare me!” Charlotte raised her face proudly, her eyes full of disdain. “Lorraine Larson, then I shall also tell you solemnly that I won’t return to Bay City. I’ll stay in Rothesay and fight for my true love.”“You!” Lorraine was so angry that she stomped her feet. “Okay! Sotiria Green, just you wait!”After saying so, Lorraine left Sotiria behind and turned around exasperatedly.Charlotte looked at her silhouette indifferently. She did not utter another word but only lifted the corners of her lips nonchalantly.‘When I decided to come back here, my main purpose was to seek revenge against Lorraine.‘So,
Jebediah turned around and pointed at Charlotte’s car that was going further and further away, his icy eyes filled with trepidation.“Sotiria isn’t a fool. She must know very well that Zach will not be seeing her anymore after marrυινγ you. If she really is hell-bent on becoming his mistress, she would’ve decided for him and prevented him from marrying you on that day, but she didn’t do so, and this could only mean one thing. She really wants to cut ties with Zach from the bottom of her heart and spend the rest of her life with your brother. However, what is happening now is that she has come back, and she’s frantically pestering Zach regardless of your brother’s feelings and everything. This is too strange. I suspect that she has recovered her memory and knows that she is Charlotte!”“Huh!? But… But…”Lorraine was so frightened that her body shook vigorously. However, when she regained her composure, she laughed. “Stop scaring me, Jebediah. This is impossible… I know Charlotte bett
Earlier, when Charlotte drove by Lorraine’s car, she had noticed another silhouette in Lorraine’s car.She knew the things about Lorraine and Jebediah, so she suspected that the person in Lorraine’s car was Jebediah.As such, she pretended that she had gone upstairs after parking her car, but in fact, she had been hiding in the corridor underneath the condominium, observing Lorraine’s car from the dark. When Lorraine started the car and was about to leave, she immediately rushed to the garage, hopped into the light blue car, and followed after Lorraine.She knew about the scandal between Lorraine and Jebediah. Back then, it was exactly because Coraline had the evidence of the scandal between Lorraine and Jebediah that Lorraine had done those things to her.Charlotte knew how much Lorraine loved Zachary, so she was certain that Lorraine must have a reason of her own to have that kind of relationship with Jebediah. Besides, considering Jebediah’s personality, he would not cut ties
Seeing her, the female doctor, who had just finished her work and was stretching in her chair, immediately stood up nervously. “Ms. Larson, is there anything I—”The moment she raised her head, it was only then she realized that although Charlotte also wore a mask and her hair was disheveled, her temperament and the clothes she wore were different from those of Lorraine. She immediately changed her attitude and said coldly, “It’s break time, so if you want to take a pregnancy check-up, come back in half an hour.”Charlotte smiled. “I’m not here for a pregnancy check-up. I have a question for you.”The face of the doctor turned even colder when she heard what Charlotte had said. “Shoot!”Charlotte then asked, “Lorraine, the Ms. Larson that you mentioned just now… Can you tell me why she came to see you?”A hint of surprise graced the doctor’s icy face. Then, she looked at Charlotte warily. “I have no idea what you’re talking about, miss. I don’t know who Ms. Larson is, and Ms. La
Charlotte calmed herself down and asked, "How far along is Lorraine?"The doctor replied with an ingratiating smile on her face, "I'm not very sure about that as well, but based on my years of experience in medicine, I can deduce that Ms. Larson is probably 40 to 45 days pregnant."'Just as I expected!' Charlotte heaved a long sigh of relief.She heard from Garrison that Zachary had been forced to agree to the engagement with Lorraine three years ago because she and Miranda had tricked him.However, Zachary did not want to marry Lorraine at all. As such, they made a pact together. If they couldn't meet someone suitable for each other after five years of engagement, they would get married.The purpose of Zachary doing that was to force Lorraine to voluntarily give up on him. He had been distancing himself from Lorraine, and since there was a good chance that he did not consummate with Lorraine after their marriage, the father to the baby in Lorraine's womb was definitely not Zach
