“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
After learning from Zenios that Zachary was now working in his company headquarters, she went into her car and made a beeline to Zachary’s company headquarters.The two security guards at the door stopped Charlotte when they saw her.“Miss, please show us your working pass.”Charlotte had been here before, so she knew that only the employees of this company and those who were close to Zachary could enter. As such, she tried to calm herself down and said, “I’m Zachary’s friend. I have something very important to tell him, so let me go in.”The fatter security guard took a step back with fear and made way for Charlotte when he heard her calling Zachary by his name. However, the skinnier security guard remained standing in front of Charlotte. “I’m sorry, but you’re not Mr. Connor’s friend.”Charlotte was a little nervous, but she willed herself to stay calm. Then, she raised her chin up and replied in a condescending voice, “Do you want to lose your job? Do you not know that thos
Zachary, who was as handsome as a god, opened his thin lips and spoke in a cold tone. “Speak.”The two guards released Charlotte but kept their eyes on her warily in case she continued to approach Zachary.Charlotte stared at the two bodyguards, then glanced at the more than ten people around her. “This involves your reputation and pride. It would be a disaster if your company employees heard this. Let’s go somewhere quiet. I’ll speak to you alone.”“No need.”Zachary curled the corners of his perfect lips icily.“One should learn from their mistakes. You’re unruly. I’m worried that you’ll pounce on me again if I speak to you alone, just like yesterday.”“Uh…” Charlotte’s face blushed furiously as she remembered how she forcibly kissed Zachary yesterday.The employees around them were too afraid to make a sound due to Zachary’s powerful, intimidating aura. However, at that moment, they were either sniggering in secret or shooting disdainful glances at Charlotte.Charlotte rem
Meanwhile, another female employee immediately collapsed from shock.At that moment, Zachary’s perfect, glacier-like face showed a crack. His already deep, icy pupils seemed to turn into two bottomless whirlpools.“It’s perfectly understandable for you to hate my wife because you want me to be your lover. But I’m warning you, I won’t let anyone slander my wife. If you continue doing this, I’ll make sure you’ll never speak again!”Charlotte’s body trembled from the sight of his ice-cold pupils.He, on the other hand, quietly removed his gaze from her face, pushed her aside, turned around, and left.“Zachary!”Charlotte couldn’t care less at this point. She yelled loudly and emotionally at his figure.“I’m telling the truth. Lorraine’s been lying to you. She’s not as pure as she seems. She’s pregnant with someone else’s baby now, and that’s a fact. If you don’t believe me, take her to the hospital for an examination, and you’ll understand—”“Enough!”Zachary icily cut her off. H
