In the past, when he had been bullied by Zachary, he’d always gritted his teeth and swore that he would become stronger.He had indeed become stronger now!Not only was he still alive, but he had also become Night King of Rothesay!“Ms. Simmons, you’re the one who called the police just now, right?”It was only when a stern voice rang out in front of her that Charlotte snapped back to reality and realized two police officers were standing before her.She hastily withdrew her gaze from the direction Bryson’s car had headed in.“Yes!” she said as she pointed at the car in the center of the road. “The person who killed Renata and her father is Elizabeth. She’s inside the car, but I’m not sure if she’s still alive or not.”The police officer sized Charlotte up with a conflicted gaze. “We’ve run a thorough check on her. Although she’s in bad shape, her breathing is smooth and her vitals are stable. We’ve already called an ambulance, so she will be fine.”Charlotte heaved a sigh
“Second Master, please don’t go yet! Second Master, wait!” Lucas rushed up to Zachary and said with a smile on his lips, “Another little bird told me that Ms. Simmons managed to escape from the clutches of her kidnappers by using her superior wisdom.”Zachary suddenly stopped in his tracks. The anxiety ebbed away from his face as his usual calmness gradually returned. “Second Master, the person who kidnapped Ms. Simmons is Elizabeth. She’s also the one who killed Renata. While she was on the run, her car was hit by a cool armored car driven by Night King. She’s currently receiving treatment at the hospital, but if I were her, I would hope that the doctor would give up on saving me so that I could die just like that. After all, she will be sentenced to death even if the doctor successfully pulls her back from the clutches of death.” Lucas wagged his head as he said this.Zachary’s face sank once again. “The person who saved Carlie was Night King again?” “Yes!” Lucas replied, nod
A lot of legends about Night King had been circulating in Rothesay in the past four years. Lucas had been one of Night King's admirers, but he’d never had a chance to meet him. Therefore, when Zachary asked him to take a message to Night King at the Black Market, his eyes glowed and he nodded without hesitation. “I will go find him right away, Second Master, but… What do you want me to tell him?”Zachary squinted his icy eyes as he stared in an unknown direction. The syllables that spilled from his thin lips were bone-chilling. “Tell him that people can come back from the dead, but one can never turn the clock back. Tell him to leave Charlotte alone and thank him for saving my wife’s life again and again. Charlotte and I will get married soon, and when that time comes, he is welcome to join us at the wedding.”Lucas had no idea why but he could feel goosebumps pebbling across his skin as he listened to Zachary’s contentious message.“Did you memorize everything?” Zachary’s deep vo
“Well, if it isn’t the world's greatest celebrity, Allegra. Welcome! Welcome! It's a real pleasure to have you, a sight for sore eyes, in my and Zenios’s home.”Tiffany put the spray can down and approached Charlotte with a big warm smile on her face.Charlotte’s brows twitched.Yes!Tiffany had married Zenios four years ago, and they’d organized a spectacular wedding that had attracted a lot of attention from different ranks of society. They were legally married to each other, and she was also the rightful owner of this house. However, Charlotte still felt an endless surge of disgust and revolt whenever she heard Tiffany openly show off her relationship with Zenios. She lifted her brows coldly. “Tiffany, I know you don’t welcome me at all, so you can drop the act. If you don’t, I’m really going to beat you.”After she finished talking, she raised her arm high in the air as though she was going to hit her.“Ah…”Tiffany was so frightened that she jumped back like a flea, and
Charlotte’s clear eyes were filled with bewilderment and shock. She knew how much Mr. Barkley emphasized on the acting skills of an actor, so how was there any possibility he would extend an olive branch to a b*tch like Tiffany?Besides, she did not think that Tiffany was lying to her. After all, Tiffany was not foolish enough to trick her with a half-baked lie. “By the way, the megablockbuster that Mr. Barkley invited me to act in is the sequel to ‘The First Sorceress Princess’. Three years ago, ‘The Sorceress Prince’ was one of the highest-grossing movies worldwide, and many people are looking forward to its sequel,” Tiffany said as if she had been immersed into her own world.“I heard from Mr. Barkley that he’s going to go all out this time and make the sequel a better movie than its predecessor. The budget for this sequel is 90,000,000 dollars more than the budget for the last movie! The budget for ‘The First Magic Concubine’ was only 40,000,000 dollars, and it was a huge hit
Charlotte did not know how to react to that. “Zenios, you’re always so inconsiderate, yet you’re still teasing me after what I said to you. You’re very close to Mr. Barkley, aren’t you? Didn’t Mr. Barkley tell you why he hired Tiffany?”Zenios shook his head. “Based on what I know about Mr. Barkley, he’s always looked down on the marketability of the celebrities that he works with. Therefore, he couldn’t have invited Tiffany because of her recent popularity. As for the reason he did so, I really have no idea myself.”Charlotte’s gaze looked like she was in a daze.At that moment, Zenios’s clear and melodious voice brushed against her cheeks. “Mr. Barkley told me that he’ll invite you to appear in the sequel of ‘The First Sorceress Princess’ after you get your appearance back. He knows that you are at odds with Tiffany, so I think there must be some unspeakable reason he did this. Perhaps you can ask him personally when he asks to see you. I believe that he’ll tell you.”‘Okay!’Ch
“Didn’t you come on foot? I’ll take you back.”He was afraid that Charlotte would refuse, so he strode over to the garage to pick up his car after saying this before Charlotte could respond to his suggestion.Charlotte smiled helplessly and saw Tiffany again all of a sudden when she was about to go out.The sky was completely dark, and the moonlight and shadows looked hazy in the courtyard. Tiffany, who was wearing a white silk dress, stood alone in the moonlight while watering the flowers. The cold water was streaming downward like dew...Charlotte felt that something was wrong instantly.At that moment, the servant cleaning the tableware walked past her, so she asked, “Isn’t Tiffany the hostess of this villa? You finished preparing the meal quite some time ago. Why didn’t you ask her to come in for a meal?”“Oh, well...” The servant put a stack of plates on the counter temporarily. “In the past, Mr. Connor never ate in the same dining room with Ms. Miller when she was unconscio
Zenios drove Charlotte to the mall parking lot.Fortunately, Charlotte’s car was still safely parked in the same parking spot. Zenios watched Charlotte drive out of the parking lot before leaving the mall reluctantly.It was already nine o’clock at night, and this nationally famous city that never slept was still glistening and shining as though it was daytime.There was a cinema not far from the mall. A romantic movie had just finished airing at the moment, and the couples who had just left the cinema were hugging and laughing by the side of the road.Charlotte, who drove by this road, looked at all the sweet silhouettes, and a feeling of loneliness suddenly gushed into her heart.It was also at this moment that she suddenly thought of Zachary.‘Zachary! Where is he now? Does he think of me as I think of him all of a sudden?’Charlotte could not help but want to call Zachary.However, upon thinking of the way Zachary had turned her away indifferently the last time she had gone
