“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
Charlotte winked. “It’s nothing. You enjoy your tea. I shall go in and see Noami now!”She then left after saying so.While Jameson stared at her escaping figure blankly, his eyes were filled with confusion.Charlotte sighed silently.‘See! Bryson won’t allow Jameson to tell anyone that he’s still alive, and Jameson has kept his promise. He didn’t even tell me anything about Bryson.’This only showed that Jameson was a trustworthy butler.Charlotte felt at ease knowing such a man was the butler of her house.When Charlotte entered the living room, she saw Jordan and Naomi standing in front of the French windows.Naomi was holding a comb in her tiny hand, combing her freshly washed, halfway dried hair as she muttered, “I don’t want it to look like this. I want it to look like Tinker Bell’s hair. She looks good in that.”While saying so, she was combing her hair toward the back of her head.Jordan smiled and said, “Tinker Bell has blonde hair, and it’s permed, so it’s impossibl
“Mommy, have you contacted Julian?” Naomi threw this sentence out there in her childlike voice.Charlotte, who was watching Jordan as she left, trembled from fright.“Ah?! Did you hear someone talk about Julian? Why are you asking this all of a sudden?”Naomi’s large, clear eyes blinked. “A few days ago, Julian wrote his mommy’s cell phone number in your palm when he was playing with me in the park. I’ve missed Julian a little bit, that’s why I’m asking you!”‘Okay!’Charlotte pinched her tender little cheek, and her face broadened into a grin. “Naomi, it hasn’t been a few days since the last time you played with Julian in the park. It’s been more than a month.”“Wow, is that so?” Naomi glanced at the desk calendar on the window sill. “Since it’s been so long, Julian must’ve missed me to death. He he he… Mommy, I’ve actually missed him to death too. Call him.”Charlotte could not help but laugh when she looked at Naomi’s innocent, cute look.She seemed to travel back a month ag
“Yes, Mr. Connor hasn’t left the house since he came home last night.”“In that case, that’s all I need from you.” Charlotte raised her eyebrows triumphantly. “Just you watch. I’ll get Zachary to come down here and welcome me through this gate personally.”The security guard chuckled, looking embarrassed.He would have laughed out loud as if he had just heard the joke of his life if somebody else had been confident enough to say this to him.However, he believed Charlotte when she said this!Everyone that worked in the Divine Sanctuary District knew how things worked between Mr. Connor and Charlotte!Mr. Connor might be a regal, indifferent devil in disguise when he was in public, but he became a toothless tiger when it came to Charlotte.He might look extremely ruthless and glacial, but he would never defy Charlotte when she asked him to do something and he would never reject her when she requested a favor...Charlotte took her cell phone out of her pocket and called Zachary.
