‘Zachary!’He knew Garrison and Ivan, and he actually attacked Garrison and Ivan just to save her!Charlotte concealed her shock flawlessly before smiling proudly and with derision on the surface. “No wonder you’re being so compliant today, you snake! Sigh! Oh, Lorraine. I thought you had so much confidence in your place in Zachary’s heart? I’m sure you would never have thought that you’d end up being threatened by Zachary. You must be overjoyed, aren’t you?”“Charlotte Simmons! You little b*tch!”Lorraine completely lost it and raised her hand to throw a slap across Charlotte’s face.However, Charlotte easily caught her wrist, stopping her hand just above the top of her head, unable to move.Lorraine glared fiercely at Charlotte, her eyes fiery like balls of flames.“You shameless little tramp! You sl*t! You took my Zach away, destroyed his impression of me, and turned it into rubble. You actually have the gall to sneer at me!?”“Oh, really?”Charlotte coldly swatted Lorraine
Zachary’s cold and glacier-like face was completely expressionless.“You did as I said to save your father and your brother. It had nothing to do with what I’m about to do to you.”Lorraine’s blood-red lips trembled.The regal Zachary stood a few meters away from her. His cooly eyes swept across her face, refusing to linger for even one second.“I warned you very clearly the day before yesterday that if you should ever hurt Carlie again, I would make you pay for everything you’ve done, including your sins from the past.”“But…”Lorraine didn’t know how she managed to find her voice.“But Zach… How could I possibly have dared to hurt Carlie? I’ve been in the hospital over the past two days. How could I possibly have hurt her?”“Oh, really?”Zachary chuckled. “Then who filed the report?”Lorraine raised her brows.“I don’t know. Regardless, it wasn’t me!”Zachary, who was as handsome as a god, showed only indifference in his icy pupils.“Very few are aware of her true iden
Thud!The car door was kicked open.“Miranda!” Charlotte couldn’t help murmuring her name when she saw the tall and slim woman leaping out of the car.Miranda was in no mood to entertain Charlotte. She simply gave her the middle finger and rushed to Lorraine’s side, helping her to her feet.“Heavens, Lory. Your nose is bleeding. It’s made you look ghastly. Wipe it off.”She pulled out a piece of wet tissue as she said this and pressed it against Lorraine’s nose.Zachary simply glanced at Miranda, then opened the car door, ready to get into the car.“Hah! You’re leaving just like that?”Miranda stomped her feet angrily.“I may not know what happened, but I can guess that you and that sl*t, Charlotte, must have ganged up on Lory. That’s why she’s in such a horrible state. Brother! Have the dogs swallowed your conscience? Lory is your savior. Haven’t you made her suffer enough for the sake of Charlotte, the tramp? Why have you not only learned your lesson, but you’re even repea
Charlotte was shocked.Zachary grinned. “Over the past four years, you and Lorraine were like sisters. It’s plausible that you would lie to me just to protect her.”“I’m not lying!”Miranda raised her voice.“I took part in a yachting competition at Blue Water Bay the day before yesterday. The venue was very close to Zenios’s house, so I stopped by his house for a meal after the competition. He kept talking about Charlotte’s identity during the meal. If you don’t believe me, you can call and ask him.”‘Oh my God!’Zenios’ handsome and wicked-looking face seemed to appear before Charlotte’s eyes.‘Zenios! That big mouth! Doesn’t he know that Miranda and I have never gotten along? Why did he have to tell her such an important secret?’Just then, Zachary’s clear and enticing voice steadily rang aloud.“No need, I believe in Zenios’s abilities to shoot his mouth off.”Miranda looked at Lorraine and continued. “Not too long after I found out about Charlotte’s identity, I heard tha
‘So it’s true! Charlotte is the apple of his eye! No one can touch her! Including me, his very own sister!’“You are my sister. I can be lenient with you, but I’m certainly not going to let you off the hook.” Zachary’s icy voice rang aloud again.Miranda’s tall and graceful figure wavered from his cold tone.However, she was so stubborn that she refused to compromise.“Hmph! Say it then. I’d love to see what you’re going to do to your sister, for the sake of Charlotte, the sl*t!”Zachary’s eyes became even colder and darker when he heard Miranda’s impertinent remarks about Charlotte.“Previously, I was going to send Lorraine to my textile mill in Country Y for menial labor. But you’re different. My goal isn’t to punish you but to ensure that you learn your lesson. So you only need to be there for three years!”“What!?”Miranda’s knees buckled. She nearly knelt before Zachary and glared at him in disbelief.“I’ve been to your textile mill. I will die from exhaustion if I do men
At the same time, Lorraine approached Miranda and pulled her right hand gently. “Mimi, this is all my fault. If it were not for me, you would not have reported Carlie, and Zach would not have punished you when you told him that it’s you who reported Carlie. I really feel sorry for you.”Miranda pretended to be strong and lifted her chin.“Hah, he wants me to work at the textile mill? Fine, then! I will burn the entire factory to the ground when I get there. I would like to see what he would do about me!” “Sigh! I’m so jealous of you, Mimi. You have such a big heart. You still have the mood to joke even at a moment like this. I know Zach very well. No one can be more stubborn than him. If you really burn his factory to the ground, he will build another one and make you work for another three years!” As she was speaking, tears began to fall from Lorraine’s eyes.“Don’t worry, Mimi. I promise I will go to visit you often, but you have to remember the thing your brother told you.
“You…” Miranda’s face turned red. She thought for a while and realized it was true.Every time she had a fight with Charlotte, it was always her who got beaten to the ground.Although Charlotte was known as the “most wanted socialite,” she was a fierce fighter, and Miranda felt that the title “No.1 Gorgon” fit her more. Charlotte let out a smirk and continued. “Alright. I didn’t come to fight you. Put your fist down first. I have something very important to tell you.”Miranda then put her fist down, but not without giving Charlotte the finger first.“Your voice makes me wanna puke, so hurry up!”Charlotte was rendered speechless. She pouted her mouth and glanced at Lorraine, who was standing behind Miranda right now. “I couldn’t figure out what you could possibly achieve by reporting me in your current situation, but after seeing that you’re so protective of Lorraine to the point that you’re willing to believe every nonsense she said, I finally have an answer.”Miranda was
Tears were flowing profusely down Lorraine’s cheeks.She knew Miranda well. She was spoiled by Zachary and often got into a fight whenever someone opposed her.Miranda was very upset right now, and Lorraine did not want to add fuel to the fire. Thus, she could only look at Miranda apologetically without saying anything.“But I don’t blame you. I just blame myself for being such an idiot. Back then, Tiffany was my best friend, but after learning that she was a phony little b*tch, I took you as my best friend. And now, it turns out that you’re no different from her… D*mn it! I don’t know why. I don’t know why all my friends are a bunch of sl*ts and b*tches. Am I a b*tch magnet? If not, why do all of you b*tches like to get close to me and take advantage of me!?”As she was talking, Miranda pulled the ruby necklace off her neck. “This is the gift you gave me last week. I don’t want it anymore! And this watch, I don’t want it as well! And these ear studs and this purse… I’m now giv
