The man was the very same mysterious man Charlotte had met when she had visited the black market to buy her gun and had the salesman give Silver Charm to her—Night King!“Mm.” Night King glanced at Charlotte indifferently. Then he glanced at the man on the ground, and his gaze immediately turned ice-cold.“You know what to do next, don’t you?”“I do…” The man lowered his head as if he had committed a serious offense as he faced a high and mighty king.“I will turn myself in and give the identity of my employer to the police, then I’ll ask for Miss Green’s forgiveness.”Night King icily curled the corners of his perfect lips. “No need to ask for forgiveness. You know the rules of the black market. Once you’ve given the identity of your employer to the police, shoot yourself in the mouth.”‘What?’Charlotte shivered from shock.The man, however, replied compliantly, “Yes.”The Night King started his motorcycle and prepared to leave.Charlotte stopped him.“Wait! I have a que
Just then, the assassin who was kneeling on the ground had already called the police. He said, “Open Sea Road, #36, Lottie’s Atelier. There’s been a murder. The murderers are still here. Please hurry.”He ended the call as soon as he finished.Charlotte stared at the two dead bodies next to the assassin, then at the assassin again. “Why are you so scared of the Night King?”The assassin lifted his head and looked at her, then lowered his head in dismay. “The Night King is the supreme overlord of the entire black market. We black-market assassins regard him with deep respect. I guess you could say that it was just our dumb luck, Miss Green. If we had known that you were Night King’s friend, we would never have accepted this job, no matter how much money the employer offered. We’re doomed now.”‘Okay! Looks like the person who wants me dead hired the assassins from the black market.’“You told the Night King that you’d give the identity of your employer to the police. Who’s your e
Charlotte’s mind was buzzing. She took at least three seconds to calm down before she could find her voice again.“I know her, but… Mel… That’s impossible! It can’t be her!”“The assassin’s phone clearly shows records of Melina Shore’s order. Look, there are records of bank transfers that Melina sent to the assassins. Last night at 11.09 p.m., Melina Shore sent 120 Black Coins to these assassins. If converted to US dollars, it would be equivalent to $185,000.”The policeman showed Charlotte the phone. Charlotte stared fixedly at the bright phone screen. Melina’s charming and foxy face seemed to appear before her eyes.Melina had attacked her one month ago. She had sent two ugly men to rape her, then inject her with a kind of drug that would reduce her to a useless being.Luckily, Zachary had saved her in time.Later, Charlotte made Melina pay the price, thanks to Zachary’s help…That day, Charlotte could have posted Melina’s exploits with the two ugly men online, but she didn’
“Lies?”The haggard-looking Meline gnashed her teeth. Her eyes filled with disdain. “You’re wrong, Sotiria. I’m not a hypocrite like you. When I hate someone, I stay away from them. When I like someone and truly want to be their friend, I would take the initiative to approach them. Every word I said that day came from the bottom of my heart.”Charlotte was confused. In the next second, she heard Melina speaking with a bitter smile. “But I was blind. I never thought that you would be such a two-faced b*tch, Sotiria Green. You were just toying with me when you gave me that USB drive and told me to destroy the video. You never planned on leaving me alone. You just wanted to make things even worse for me!”Charlotte was even more stunned.“I thought that matter was resolved long ago? Why are you bringing it up now? I don’t understand what you’re saying.”“Oh, really?”Melina was trembling from top to toe. Her eyes filled with tears. “Stop pretending, Sotiria. You may have given
“Oh?” Lorraine, who was in the middle of doing her makeup in the dressing room on set, looked at her reflection in the mirror. Her gaze suddenly turned ice-cold. “What did I do? I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”“Oh, really?”Charlotte smirked. “Stop pretending, Lorraine. Your evil plan didn’t work. The police have apprehended Melina, so you can forget about manipulating her into attacking me again!”Lorraine was shocked as if a bucket of ice-cold water had been poured over her head.Charlotte’s sneering voice quietly rang aloud again, “I know how paranoid you are. You’re afraid that I’m recording you. So you’d never tell the truth on the phone. Where are you? I’ll meet you there.”Lorraine took a while to calm herself before finding her voice again.“Virtual World.”Charlotte’s heart went into turmoil when she heard the name. Then, she icily said, “Wait for me.”She ended the call, then went home to collect her car and sped off to Virtual World. She was very f
“Oh?”Lorraine pretended to look surprised. “So, what are you trying to ask me?”Charlotte stared icily at Lorraine’s incomparably beautiful face.“My intuition tells me that you’re the one who sent that video to Melina’s husband. You wanted to make Melina hate me, that’s why you used that as a way to sow animosity between us. But I don’t understand. How did you get that video?”“Alright, we hate each other very much. Since you’ve managed to guess, I have no need to hide it from you. I’ll just be straight with you…”Lorraine, who was as beautiful as a fairy, complacently stroked her smooth hair.“Last month, Zach hired those two ugly men to humiliate Melina, just to stand up for you. You ended up giving Melina that USB drive in the end. Then, Melina destroyed that USB drive in front of you, and she walked away. Then, you and Zach left as well. However, no one bothered to deal with the remnants of that USB drive.”At this point, Charlotte could already guess that this mess had st
Only big-budget and large-scale films were allowed to shoot in Virtual World.Over the past few years, ever since the stunningly beautiful Lorraine entered the entertainment industry, she received increasing love and adoration from fans. Now her popularity had risen to the first spot among the nation’s female celebrities.However, a majority of Lorraine’s popularity relied on variety of show appearances. This had been her first acting job…In order to boost her fame, Jebediah had poured quite a lot of money into her first film. That year, Charlotte had set the world on fire, simply with her movie The First Sorceress Princess. To this day, Charlotte/Allegra was still regarded as the “ultimate female artist” whom none could ever surpass.According to rumor, this historical film that Lorraine was starring in had set The First Sorceress Princess as a benchmark. Lorraine wanted to use this movie as a means to pull Charlotte off her pedestal.‘Lorraine Larson! She’s committed so many
“You’re here again, Sotiria. It makes sense! You must be eager to see me in pain. Now that you’ve found out that I’m close to death, you obviously came to gloat and make me feel worse!”Charlotte slowly stepped closer to Melina with tears in her eyes.“Why do you always see the worst in me? Did I make you feel bad or gloat when we met downstairs at your home after you were caught?”Melina was stunned. Then, she sneered. “What are you doing here, then?”“I want to tell you the truth.”Charlotte was now in front of Melina. She gently held her hand. “I’m not lying, I didn’t send that video to your husband. I’ve done a thorough investigation on the real culprit who sent the video to your husband.”Extreme shock caused Melina to forget to swat Charlotte’s hand away.She was beginning to believe in Charlotte’s words.Because if Charlotte really had sent that video to Mario, she would be happy to see her in dire straits since she was hell-bent on hurting her…Charlotte was actually g
