“Hah! Looking at this scene! It looks so familiar!” Garrison’s cold eyes skimmed over the red roses on the wall and the candles on the table. “Zachary, do you think I haven’t read The Book of Love? Not only is the whole proposal you just made original lines found in The Book of Love, but the rose and candle setup is also taken directly from the ninth chapter of The Book of Love, which is the ‘proposal’ chapter!”Charlotte was embarrassed, and her face kept blushing and turning pale from time to time.‘It’s no wonder Zachary, who’s always been as cold as a glacier, would say such touching words... After that entire setup, it turns out that he was only reciting what was written in the book...’Charlotte did not see that Zachary’s hands had already clenched into fists at that moment. If it weren’t for Garrison and Charlotte’s extreme proximity and the fact that Zachary was worried that Charlotte would be injured by mistake, he would have punched Garrison in the face long ago.Zachary
The corners of Zachary’s perfectly curved lips gave off a mischievous lift. “You said it yourself. You’ve also read the “Book of Love”. Didn’t you read that book just to steal the routines to go after her?”Garrison was rendered speechless, and a trace of obvious embarrassment could be seen through his delicate and handsome face.Yes!In the past four years or so, he had already lost count on how many times he had asked Charlotte to marry him. However, he would always get more and more courageous after each failure, never giving up.In order to ensure that Charlotte got a feeling of novelty from each and every proposal that he came up with, he would never use the same idea every time he proposed to Charlotte. He had to admit that he had almost gone through all kinds of books related to love and learned all the methods and routines from them.At this time, Garrison realized that a shadow just swayed in front of him.It turned out that Zachary had already walked past him and went o
The next day, Charlotte got up as soon as the alarm clock went off as usual.She walked out of the bedroom and came to the living room, just to find out that those roses were still in the living room.Although it had been a whole night and the petals were not as delicate as the night before, the flowers were still fragrant and beautiful.Looking at these flowers, Charlotte could not help but think of Zachary.Thus, she subconsciously looked towards the French window, but Zachary, who was used to practicing his reading routine in front of the French window, was not there at the moment.“Are you looking for Zachary?” Garrison’s melodious voice sounded at that moment.She found out that Garrison was sitting on the sofa, and she put on a smile immediately. “Hehe, yes! Didn’t he move to our house that day? Why is he not here today?”Garrison smiled gently. “He left after you and Naomi went back to the bedroom last night. I think he probably has some things to attend to.”Charlotte n
After saying so, Charlotte rubbed Naomi’s little head. “Naomi, let’s go.”“Carlie!” The agitated Garrison suddenly strode in front of Charlotte, blocked her way, and hugged her tightly. “I know that you’re a good woman, and I also know that the person you love is Zachary. By now, I don’t expect to have you for myself. I’m just asking you to have pity on me and share your love for Zachary with me. Is that okay for you?”Charlotte’s mind turned blank, and as a result, she forgot to push Garrison away for a short while.Garrison hugged her tightly. His thin lips were pressed against her ears—the scorching warmth seemed to have melted her away. “You can never imagine just how deep my love for you is. I’ve had insomnia every night since the day you regained your memory. I think about what I should and would do after I lose you every night. And the more I think about it, the more scared I get. Because after I’ve gotten so used to living my life with you in it throughout the four years, I’
Charlotte called Marco immediately after sending Naomi to the kindergarten.The second Charlotte answered the phone, Marco’s voice sounded in Charlotte’s ears.“Tiria, I was just looking for you for something, but you’ve always liked to sleep in. I was afraid of waking you up, so I decided to call you after 10:00 a.m. I didn’t expect you to wake up so early today.”‘Okay!’Charlotte admitted that she did have the habit of sleeping in. Even her alarm clock could not wake her up sometimes, and the ray of the sun would be strong enough to shine into her room through the window when she woke up naturally.She smiled. “Marc, tell me first, why are you calling me?”Marco, who was on the other end of the phone call, patted the urn on the table. “Don’t you know what happened? Virginia was executed yesterday.”At that moment, Charlotte seemed to be able to imagine Virginia’s bloated face in front of her eyes.‘Virginia, that vicious woman was executed so quickly. It’s what she deserved.
Embarrassment and guilt were intertwining in Harvey’s eyes. “Tiria, why are you saying that again?”Charlotte smiled coldly and shifted her gaze onto Marco’s slender and well-defined face. “Marc, you asked me in the precinct the other day about why I’ve been saying a lot of strange things recently. I told you that I’d give you the answer in three days. The reason I said three days later was that I planned to expose Lorraine three days later. I didn’t expect things to develop smoother than I planned. I successfully exposed Lorraine yesterday, so I plan to give you the answer today.”“Lorraine… She’s Garrison’s younger sister and your sister-in-law. Why are you trying to expose her? What did you expose of her!?” Marco’s eyes looked perplexed.“About this, if I were to tell you everything in detail, I’m afraid that I wouldn’t be able to finish it in one day. So, I’ll wait until I have the time to explain everything to you slowly.” Charlotte smiled. “Marc, I want to tell you that I’m ac
Charlotte took a second to calm herself down. “Officer, are you mistaken? My name is Sotiria Green. Why are you calling me Ms. Simmons? Have you forgotten? I just got commended by the police department for exposing Virginia a few days ago!”“Of course we remember your brave action of exposing Virginia’s witty behavior, but that’s another story. No matter how much good a person has done, if they’ve committed a crime, we’ll still have to punish them in the name of the law.”The police officer took out an arrest warrant while speaking. “Someone reported that you’re not really Sotiria Green, but Charlotte Simmons, the person who stabbed Lorraine Larson four years ago and pushed her off the cliff. The person who reported you also provided us with a lot of evidence. So, I’m sorry, but we must arrest you.”A high pitch sound echoed in Charlotte’s ears.She continued to live as Sotiria after regaining her memory because she was worried the police would arrest her upon learning about her tr
“I know…” Charlotte shrugged. “But, you doing so won’t help me out. You listen to me and stop obstructing the police. Plus, you know who to call, right?”Marco nodded. “Yeah.”Charlotte smiled. “Then there’s nothing that I should be worried about. Marc, the only person who can save me now is him. So go and call him.”Marco, who understood Charlotte’s meaning, stepped aside.After Charlotte was taken into the police car, Marco called Garrison immediately. “Garrison, this is bad. The police have learned about Tiria’s true identity and have taken her away. Mr. Connor is the only person who can save her now. Please contact Mr. Connor and ask him to save her!”Charlotte was taken to the police station about ten minutes later.Charlotte remembered that her former self always abided by the law. She had never come to the precinct before she was 23 years old…However, since a few days ago, she had been in and out of the precinct as a victim or a criminal. This made her look like a repeat
