Zachary opened the car door next to her.Standing outside the car, Zachary glanced coldly at Lorraine, who was on the edge of the cliff. His clear voice felt like it was a cold breeze gusting from the top of a snow-capped mountain. It sounded cold and merciless. “Don’t you have something to ask her?”Charlotte was rendered speechless for a moment as the corners of her lips twitched. “Yes…”She then got out of the car and walked straight to Lorraine.“Milady, wait a moment!” Lucas trotted two steps forward instantly and blocked her way. “I heard about the things that Ms. Larson did to you. Yes, she’s not worthy of any sympathy and pity. However, Milady, I’ll still advise you to calm down. After all, you’re not a murderer, are you?”Charlotte raised her eyebrows, revealing her merciless eyes. “So, are you worried that I’ll kill her?”Lucas nodded helplessly.A trace of mockery and self-deprecation evoked the corners of Charlotte’s lips. “See! Luke, even a bystander like you is say
Zachary responded without any hesitation. “Naturally, I’ll believe my wife.”“I knew it, I knew it…” Lorraine closed her eyes in pain, and two streams of tears gushed downward over her delicate cheeks. “Hehe, I suddenly found myself so stupid and naive. Back then, when I still had an impressive image in your heart, you still favored her and acted indifferent to me no matter what you came across. And now, you’ll surely believe her even more than back then. What am I when placed in comparison with her?”Zachary smirked and said nothing, as if he was admitting that with his silence.Lorraine then continued. “I finally understand today that the Zachary, who loved, pampered, and regarded me as an existence that was more important than his life, died the moment he met Charlotte, and he is never coming back!”Zachary did not reply to any of her sentences. Instead, a trace of contempt could be seen flashing in between his thick and dark brows.Lorraine, who was filled with resentment, sai
Lorraine actually laughed out loud.She glared at Charlotte. Her gaze looked as resentful as a poisonous viper while her smile made her face go distorted, just like a witch from a fairy tale who had taken her hypocritical mask off, revealing her vicious face.“Charlotte Simmons, you’re a vixen who broke into Zachary’s life while I had a misunderstanding with him. I hate you, you shameless b*tch! I shall curse you to never see Poopoo again in your life. I’ll never tell you where he is! Now get your f*cking *ss down to hell already!”Charlotte’s gaze and voice became even colder. “I’ve given you a chance, but since you don’t appreciate it, then I won’t be merciless to you this time around!”“Oh?” Lorraine laughed. “I’m rather curious, Charlotte Simmons! How can a sl*t like you show me no mercy?”Charlotte raised her finger and pointed to the cliff. “You were lucky enough to survive four years ago after I pushed you down the cliff from here. I don’t believe that you can still be so l
The two men winked at each other and then tacitly grabbed her by one arm and pulled her feet off the ground.One of them said, “Ms. Larson, you had fallen from here once. You should know that the abyss underneath this cliff is covered with poisonous brambles. You can’t be as lucky as you were back then this time. Even if you don’t die immediately when we throw you down from here, you’ll still be pricked by poisonous thorns. We won’t know how much agony you’ll still have to suffer before you die from the poison…“Therefore, when we throw you down, we’ll try our best to make sure your head hits the ground first. That way, you’ll die straight from the fall and suffer less.”Lorraine’s body trembled vigorously.She had already embraced her death wish completely this time. At that moment, she turned her head and looked at Zachary again.However, Zachary was still standing in front of the car with his back facing her. He obviously had the authority to save her life with just a single wo
Zachary was about to answer, but Charlotte, who heard the commotion from the car, quickly got out of the car. “We didn’t wrong her! Who else could’ve done such a thing besides her? Moreover, she confessed it herself.”Charlotte’s voice was calm.Jebediah seemed to have heard a clap of thunder that had struck on a sunny afternoon. He looked at Lorraine in disbelief. “Lory, you obviously didn’t do this. Why are you taking the blame for it!?”Lorraine, who had completely died from the inside, stared blankly at an unknown direction and refused to speak.After a while, Jebediah shifted his gaze back to Charlotte’s face. “You’re wrong. Lory didn’t do this.”“Really?” Charlotte smirked. “She’s your beloved woman, so you’ll naturally take her side when it comes to this!”“I’m not just taking her side. I have real evidence!” After speaking, Jebediah took his cell phone out of his pocket and threw it toward Charlotte from a distance.Thud! The black smartphone dropped on Charlotte’s fee
“How do I know if you’re not the one who deliberately arranged for someone to add you on Instagram and forged this chat record in order to save Lorraine?”Zachary’s melodious baritone sounded abruptly. “Zach, you’re the smartest person that I’ve ever met. I wouldn’t lie to you through such a clumsy method in order to save Lory.” Jebediah then pointed to his cell phone. “What’s more, the kidnapper said that he’d contact you again. You just have to get the cash that he wants ready, and everything will come to light when he contacts you, right?”Indifference and coldness were to sole emotions that could be found in Zachary’s gloomy eyes. “Back then, you had your hand in the matter of throwing Carlie off this cliff. I’ll start this off with the ugly fact first. I’ll throw you and Lorraine off this cliff together if I find out that you’re lying to me this time.”A handful of salt seemed to have been sprinkled and rubbed on the bleeding wounds found in Lorraine’s heart as she heard Zach
‘Lorraine! She’s truly a vicious and terrifying woman.’Therefore, Charlotte’s heart has been perturbed after mistakenly thinking that Lorraine was the one hiding Poopoo away from her. Now that she knew that the person who caused Poopoo’s disappearance was a kidnapper, Charlotte felt a lot more relieved.‘Poopoo! My baby boy!‘I liked him so much back then, but I mistakenly thought that Lorraine strangled him to death when I first learned that he was my son. However, I can finally reunite with him now!‘How I wish I could reunite with him soon!’At that moment, Lucas, who had been sitting in the driver’s seat all this while, let out a long sigh. “Second Master, Milady, after what’s happened this time, I advise you not to be so emotional again in the future. If Ms. Larson was really thrown down the cliff just down, just how wrong the whole thing would’ve been?”“Wrong?” Zachary’s gaze and voice were cold. “Are you taking pity on her?”“This…” Lucas was frightened when he looked a
Zachary’s car had long disappeared from the winding road, while Lorraine was still staring at the position where his car was the moment before disappearing. She then said in a daze, “Because dying like this is more meaningful than staying alive.”“Lory!” Jebediah’s hands that were helping Lorraine untie the rope originally froze. “It’s always better to live than to die! How can you be so pessimistic!?”Lorraine’s lips trembled, and her eyes were tearful. “Did you not see? After Zachary learned of the things I had done, he was so indifferent to me as if I were his enemy…“In the past, I used to be the person that he pampered and cared about! But, now… Whenever I exchange gazes with him, whenever I hear the tone of his voice, and whenever I think that he’s so determined and ruthless toward me, I feel that dying is better living.”Jebediah looked at her lovingly. He opened his thin lips but could not utter a single word, so he could just listen to Lorraine’s complaints.“Do you know,
