Charlotte could tell that Lorraine was the only thing on Jebediah’s mind now. Even though Jebediah was as cold as an assassin, his eyes were overflowing with happiness today. Even the tips of his brows seemed to smile.

“How have you been, Carlie?”

A clear voice reminiscent of spring water from the mountains rang out from Charlotte’s right.

Charlotte quickly turned her gaze away from Jebediah and Lorraine and looked at Garrison, who had appeared by her side.

“I’ve been good, Garrison! Actually, I’ve been looking for an opportunity to thank you. Thanks for giving Jordan the green light. She’s helping me take care of Naomi now. She really cares about Naomi. I might not have felt as safe if I had hired anyone else to take care of her.”

The exceedingly handsome Garrison stared at her with a gaze filled with such warmth that it seemed like he could melt her.

“Are you surprised, Carlie? I treated Naomi like my own daughter over the past four years. If you didn’t mind, I’d personally go

    Charlotte, Zachary, and Garrison were the only three people to witness this wedding ceremony.Garrison told Charlotte that Lorraine had sent an invitation to Ivan Larson and Miranda too…However, Ivan had had a huge fight with Lorraine after discovering everything she had done to tear Zachary and Charlotte apart and he still refused to forgive Lorraine. Thus, he did not come to the wedding ceremony.Miranda, on the other hand, had completely cut ties with Lorraine after discovering her true face. Of course, she wasn’t going to come either…It was just as Lorraine had described. This was a very simple wedding devoid of any formalities. They hadn’t even appointed a master of ceremonies.Jebediah led Lorraine down the aisle. Once the pair recited their wedding vows and exchanged rings, Garrison pronounced them husband and wife.Even so, Charlotte could tell that Jebediah was overjoyed.She was suddenly reminded of what Dickson had said to her yesterday—as long as two people were tr

    The ten familiar faces were the crew members who had worked with Charlotte when she’d filmed The First Sorceress Princess. The others, whom Charlotte did not recognize, were new employees that Dickson had hired over the past four years.As soon as Charlotte walked in, the group of more than twenty people froze in place. Everyone stared at Charlotte.At least five seconds later, a woman screamed as if Charlotte had been resurrected.“Oh my god! I thought I was looking at a ghost. Carlie. You look exactly the same. You’ve risen from the dead!”Charlotte was mulling over her words when an artistic-looking young man with long hair and black-rimmed glasses chimed in, “Vivian, have you lost the ability to talk like a human out of excitement? Carlie was never dead. She only had amnesia for four years. She hasn’t come back from the dead. She’s proudly returning to the crew.”“Yes! Yes!”“Welcome back our leading lady.”The group clapped their hands excitedly.Charlotte felt warmth in h

    ‘Hah!’Charlotte laughed to herself.‘That explains why Mr. Barkley was so happy when I put on this dress—I’ve helped the crew save on expenses.’Charlotte’s press conference, when she would announce her return, was set to begin at 7:40 p.m.At 5 p.m, the bodyguards opened the back doors to the building, allowing journalists and photographers with ticket admission to enter. Everyone fought their way to the front row, the best spot for taking pictures.At 7.30 p.m, the bodyguards opened the entrance doors and allowed the fans to come in.The Rothesay News Building was huge but it would only contain 30,000 people. The hall was overcrowded, and the over 20,000 people who failed to enter the building wailed in disappointment outside the doors.Charlotte might have attended press conferences like this before, but when she saw the immense crowd and the excitement they felt, she couldn’t help feeling nervous.Luckily, she had already memorized the script that Dickson had given her.

    “Miss Simmons, you can’t leave now. We may not see anyone in this light, but what if the fans are hiding in dark corners? We’ll have someone bring the car around. You can leave once your car arrives.”Charlotte laughed.“Hey! It’s not like I’m some sort of international spy. Are the fans going to hide in the shadows to kill me? It’ll be fine.”“But Miss Simmons, it’s better to be safe than sorry… Miss Simmons!”“Miss Simmons!”Charlotte was already striding through the door and walking toward the street.The bodyguards had no choice but to follow her.Charlotte seemed completely nonchalant.The three bodyguards looked extremely grim. They kept a sharp eye on their surroundings, as if Charlotte was at risk of being assassinated at any time.At that moment, the door to the red Porsche that had been parked in the parking lot opened. Then, a voice rang out from the vehicle. “Congratulations, Carlie!”The charming voice, which seemed capable of producing water, belonged to none ot

    “Who’s your backer?” Charlotte asked, despite already knowing the answer.Tiffany lifted her face arrogantly.“His name alone would scare you to death. Listen carefully, Charlotte. My backer is the king of darkness in Rothesay, the man whose name can strike fear in the hearts of everyone in the city—Night King!”Charlotte wasn’t scared at all. In fact, she nearly burst into laughter.Then, Tiffany continued boasting arrogantly. “The Night King is on par with Zachary Connor in Rothesay. I’m sure you know that. I’ll be honest with you. Even Mr. Barkley respects the Night King. That’s exactly why he invited me to be the second female protagonist in the sequel of the First Sorceress Princess. You’d better watch out, and don’t you dare try anything on me when we start filming, or Night King will be after your head. Hmph!”She started her car as soon as she said her piece and drove away.All three bodyguards looked extremely terrified.‘Night King! That legendary man is actually suppo

    Virtual World!She remembered that she had last visited this place about two months ago.She’d still had amnesia at the time and had stopped by to see Lorraine due to certain issues. The studio had seemed very familiar to her. When she’d eventually regained her memories, she had realized that she harbored deep sentiment for this place…Most of her scenes had been completed in this very studio back when she had first starred in The First Sorceress Princess.It was only 7.30 a.m, but most of the crew members had already arrived.At that moment, a group of people had surrounded Tiffany, chatting and laughing away.The pearl-white dress that Tiffany was wearing was certainly expensive. It was extremely dazzling. Charlotte could spot her from a distance.However, every time Charlotte thought of Tiffany, she would feel nauseated. She frowned and walked around her from the side.Unfortunately, Tiffany cried out, “Ah! Carlie’s here! Carlie!”She quickly made her way to Charlotte, beam

    Charlotte curled her lips in disdain.“Oh, Tiffany, I’m going to stop exposing your secrets now. I mean, we’re crew members after all. However, if you ever wantonly claim to be my best friend again, I’m not going to show you the same courtesy!”She coldly swatted Tiffany’s hand away as soon as she said her piece and walked past her.Everyone eyed Tiffany skeptically.‘Tiffany!’She looked like a pure, untainted woman on the surface. Was she really a snake, just like Charlotte had described her to be?Tiffany stared at Charlotte, her trembling hands digging into her skin.‘I’m surprised. It’s been more than four years, and Charlotte still hasn’t grown up. She’s just as reckless, stupid, and stubborn as ever! I made it very clear to her last night that I have Night King’s support. If she had any brains at all, she would fear the powerful support I have and make peace with me. I guess she just doesn’t know how to appreciate kindness… I was nice enough to make the first move by decl

    “Please watch your step, Mr. Barkley.”Only then did Dickson step out of the vehicle. Steadily, he exited the car.Everyone stared at him. His car was silvery white and so clean that it looked as if it had just been washed. He was wearing an immaculate white suit as he exited the vehicle, creating a visually impactful sight.Everyone began greeting him warmly as he walked toward them.“Hello, Mr. Barkley!”“Mr. Barkley, you’re here!”“You look great today, Mr. Barkley!”Dickson glanced indifferently at every face in front of him. His eyes only lingered for two seconds when they landed on Charlotte’s face. A hint of warmth appeared on his face.Then, he looked around again.“Is anyone missing?”Carter quickly bowed and replied, “You asked everyone to be at the studio yesterday, but it’s a big studio. If everyone walked around, it would be difficult to have them gathered in one spot, so I made sure to be the first to arrive this morning and I had everyone gather in this empty l

    As expected, a video had been sent to Charlotte’s inbox.Charlotte opened it and found a video of her recent sexual encounter with Zachary in the car. She screamed and blushed furiously.Before long, she received a message from Rufus.“This exciting clip of you with Zachary is your remuneration. I will keep it safe and save it for my future enjoyment. Our debt has been repaid. You’re welcome!”Charlotte’s expression stiffened.A few minutes later, she received another message.“I won’t let anyone see this. Don’t worry.”Charlotte questioned herself.She had no idea how Rufus had managed to get this video. He was in a different city. However, she let go of the question soon enough, as Rufus had already sent the information to her inbox.The next day, at a high-class hotel in Rothesay.A black Masserati was parked outside the hotel entrance. As two bodyguards escorted a pot-bellied, middle-aged man out of the hotel, the driver hurriedly opened the Masserati’s door and said in a

    “Lory…” A clear and melodious voice called out.A fair hand held her by the wrist as a car stopped nearby.“Zachary is openly making love to another woman in front of you. He’s obviously just trying to hurt you. You know this, so why are you still standing here, watching foolishly?”Lorraine shook her head feebly. It took her a while before she calmed down and replied shakily, “You’re wrong, Jez. Zachary isn’t doing it with her to hurt me. I’m nothing to him now. Carlie is the only thing that matters to him. He would never use tools to hurt me. He’s doing this because he’s so in love with Carlie that he’s lost control!”“Uh…” Jezebel turned awkwardly toward Charlotte’s car, shook her head, and said, “Lory, since you know you mean nothing to Zachary, why are you still torturing yourself? Forget him, and I’ll take you anywhere you like. Isn’t that much better?”“No!” Lorraine grimaced. Her eyes flashed hatefully.“It’s all Charlotte’s fault that Zach and I have ended up this way. I

    The corners of Charlotte’s lips twitched. “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”“Why?” Zachary kept his eyes on her.There was no doubt about it. Not only did his wife have an extremely exquisite face, but her figure was also graceful and well-proportioned, better than a supermodel’s.The subtle display of fair flesh underneath her skirt seemed to exude a seductive fragrance. Her waist, which was the width of an A4 size paper, was slender. He felt an urge to hold her in his arms. She crossed her slender and well-proportioned legs naturally, creating a dark silhouette…‘D*mn it!’Zachary realized that the longer his gaze lingered on Charlotte’s body, the brighter the flames of passion burned within him, even though he had always abstained.“Based on Rothesay tradition, a man and a woman can only be considered husband and wife after holding a proper wedding ceremony. I know we’ve registered, but people will talk if we live together without having a ceremony,” Charlotte replied calmly

    Charlotte remained sitting calmly in the car. She knew that this time, Zachary was determined to strangle Lorraine to death.Of course, she didn’t want Zachary to do it… But not because she didn’t want Lorraine to die. It was because Lorraine had Jezebel’s support. If Zachary killed her, Jezebel would do everything to avenge Lorraine.It wasn’t worth it for Zachary to plunge into mutual destruction with Lorraine. She didn’t deserve him.Charlotte knew very well that since Lorraine, who was a natural schemer, had the nerve to seek her out alone, it meant that she would have been prepared to run into Zachary and would ensure that Zachary would be too afraid to kill her.Thus, even though Zachary was strangling Lorraine, Charlotte did not exit the car to stop him.The car door opened and closed.Charlotte felt a bone-chilling aura throughout the entire car as soon as Zachary entered the co-driver’s seat.Zachary didn’t speak. Instead, he stared at her.Despite her intimate relatio

    “What have you done?” Zachary’s voice was as cold as a frosty wind.“I’ve hired a few assassins. The assassins and I have had an agreement. If anything happens to me, they will do everything in their power to kill Charlotte and her two kids!”Charlotte’s entire body went cold as soon as she heard this.“Hehehe… Sorry, Zach, I misspoke. I shouldn’t have said ‘her two kids’. They’re yours and Charlotte’s kids, aren’t they?”Lorraine supported herself as she rose to her feet.In the past, no matter what happened, she would always do her best to maintain a good impression in front of Zachary, to show him the best parts of her.Now, she knew that his impression of her was gone with the wind. She cackled freely like a maniac. “Hahahaha… Look at that nervous look on your face, Zach. You’ve always been fearless, but she’s the only one who’s ever been able to make you lose your sh*t, isn’t she?”Zachary eyed Lorraine icily, his gaze as sharp as cold knives. Lorraine, whose heart was no

    Lorraine forgot about the pain due to the intense panic she felt and stared at Zachary in disbelief. “Zachary, what do you mean by these scary remarks? I’m pregnant, yet you kicked me, disregarding mine and the child’s well-being. Could you be... Are you thinking of... Are you thinking of killing me?”“A wicked woman like you deserves more than just death.” Zachary’s cold voice slapped Lorraine in the face.Lorraine’s lips trembled, but she could not utter another word, as if her throat was being severely strangled by an invisible hand.Cough! A large mouthful of blood was spat out of her mouth, dyeing her white dress red.Although she did not feel pain or fear, her heart was glacial.She also knew that she deserved more than just death!‘But... wicked woman?‘I didn’t expect to be labeled as a “wicked woman” in Zachary’s heart someday!’As he was glaring at this pitiful woman, there was not even a hint of sympathy in Zachary’s eyes, and his voice still sounded frigid and merci

    Lucas called not long after Charlotte put down her cell phone. “Milady, I just received a call from my ex-girlfriend, who I dumped last month, and she said that she just found out that she’s pregnant and she suspects that the baby might be my child... Ahem!“Therefore, I have to go to the hospital to get a paternity test with her as soon as possible. I don’t have time to drive Naomi back to your house, so you can either pick her up yourself or just let Naomi stay at the Second Master’s house.”Charlotte decided to pick Naomi up.As soon as she drove out of the yard gate, a crimson Ferrari dashed toward her head-on. She immediately turned the steering wheel sharply, avoiding a direct clash with the car.Braking harshly, the Ferrari hit the tree and killed its engine.Charlotte also stepped on the brake.The Ferrari’s door was pushed open abruptly, and Lorraine walked in front of Charlotte’s car angrily. She then pointed at Charlotte with her trembling right hand. “Charlotte Simmon

    “Don’t forget who I am. There’s nothing that I can’t find out as long as I want to know... Aaaah—“Baby, you‘re hurting me. Don’t be too greedy... Oh, slow down, I’m on the phone. Oh. Ow—” The man’s voice was interrupted by a series of his own cries, and a woman’s moans were coming from the background at the same time.Charlotte vaguely pictured a rather explicit scene, blushed, and cleared her throat. “Um... I can call you later if it’s inconvenient for you to speak now.”“There’s no need. It’s convenient. Very convenient... Good girls, wait for me on the bed. I’ll get angry otherwise, understand?”“Hmph, are we less significant than your phone calls? Hmph!”“Don’t keep us waiting!”The sound of footsteps faded away.The man squinted his rare violet eyes and said languidly, “My little Simmons Princess, I’ve long heard people say that you’re still alive, and I really want to take a look at you with my own eyes, but I’ve sworn to never take another step into Rothesay.

    Zachary looked at Charlotte through the window as a surge of pride swelled inside of him. “She’s my wife right now, so she’s your niece-in-law. You shouldn’t call her ‘that woman’ anymore.”The corner of the man’s lips curled up a little when he heard what Zachary had said. However, he soon reverted to his serious expression and continued. “Zach, even if she’s your wife now, I have to warn you. You have to think twice before you act. My great-grandfather, who’s also your great-grandfather, was framed and died in prison for offending someone from the royal family. Your great-great-grandmother wrote a letter with her own blood and came up with a family rule. The Connors are only allowed to do business. They are not allowed to deal with people from the government. Do you really want to break the family rule for her?”“Yes,” Zachary replied, his deep brown eyes filled with murderous intent. “I owe her a wedding, and I don’t want them to interfere with my wedding.”The man opened his mou
