“Your ankle has been sprained, so it’ll definitely hurt. Carlie, wait for me here. I’ll be back in a second.” Jezebel dashed toward the river after saying this.

Charlotte looked at Jezebel in a daze.

Before long, Jezebel reached the river bank and tore a piece of fabric about four inches long and two inches wide from her skirt. After absorbing water in the river with the fabric, she quickly ran back to Charlotte and wrapped the cloth around Charlotte’s ankle.

“Hiss...” The sudden coldness on her skin made Charlotte tremble a little.

However, the moment the chill penetrated her sprained ankle, the pain that had been stinging dissipated instantly, and a sense of relief followed.

Seeing that Charlotte was no longer suffering, Jezebel breathed a sigh of relief.

“I accidentally sprained my ankle once when I was walking down a staircase. The doctor said that one should always apply a cold compress instantly after a sprain. You can try to stand up now to see whether you can do so by you

    Charlotte’s eyebrows twitched in surprise. “Sorry, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Can you be more straightforward?”The expressionless Julius looked cooler than the water in the nearby river. “There often must be a reason for a person to pay so much attention to someone else. Don’t you find it abnormal at all for a prestigious person such as Ms. Atson to kneel and flatter an unworthy actor?”“What?!” Charlotte’s eyes were on the brink of popping out of their sockets.The extraordinarily attractive man glanced ironically at Jezebel, who was standing next to Charlotte.“I’ve already told you everything that I should tell you very clearly. If you have any more questions, you can ask her...” He turned away and left with a scoff after saying these words.Charlotte stared at his ethereal, indifferent figure in a daze, unable to recover from the trance for a long time.“Carlie, let’s go.” Jezebel’s voice came from the side.Charlotte slowly moved her gaze away from Juliu

    She took a few deep breaths and cleared her throat before answering the call.“Hello?”“What are your plans for tonight?” Zachary’s voice on the phone was still as magnetic and enticing as ever.Charlotte tried her best to remain calm.“Don’t have much going on.”“Then come over to my place for dinner,” Zachary said.Charlotte considered whether she should actually go.Zachary’s clear, magnetic voice rang out again. “Our son misses our daughter. I promised him that I’d have her over for dinner.”“Ah, I see!”Charlotte had been a little nervous, but when she heard Zachary say “our son” and “our daughter”, she felt unspeakably relaxed and at ease… She smiled instinctively.“Then I’ll pick Naomi up from kindergarten once I’ve finished working at the studio this afternoon and we’ll come to your place together.”“This afternoon?”Meanwhile, Zachary, who was standing by the French windows, had a hint of warmth on his cold, elegant face.“I asked Lily and David to pick Naomi up f

    At that moment, Julius raised his brow in amusement. “Miss Simmons, next time you walk out the door, you should really check if there’s anyone outside. Otherwise, an ignorant person would think that you’re deliberately throwing yourself at them.”Charlotte was instantly flustered.“Quit being such a narcissist. I feel absolutely disgusted whenever I see weirdos like you. Who’d want to throw themselves at you?”“Oh, really?”Julius did not seem angry at all. Instead, the amusement in his eyes only increased.“That’s even better. I might have vomited if you were actually throwing yourself at me.”“You…”Charlotte blushed from anger, and her lips trembled.However, she wasn’t in the mood to waste any time on him. She shot him an irritable glare and walked around him, dragging Jezebel along with her.Julius lowered his long, thick, dark eyelashes and stared at her right hand, which was holding onto Jezebel’s wrist.“Please remember to remain clean and love yourself, little girl

    “Mr. Connor, a car just arrived. The driver looks a lot like Miss Simmon. May we serve dinner now?”Zachary lifted his head and turned toward the courtyard. Once he saw Charlotte’s car, he replied calmly, “Mm.”Janet quickly ran to the dining room to serve dinner.Zachary’s chiseled face showed no sign of emotion. Only his dazzling, crystalline eyes contained a starry light filled with excitement and emotion.Naomi immediately tossed her toys aside and threw herself in Charlotte’s arms as soon as she walked into the living room.“Mommy, I just arrived at daddy's house. My big brother picked me up from kindergarten today. Daddy says that families should stay together. He says that he’s going to send big brother to my kindergarten. That way, we can be together every day.”The tips of Charlotte’s fingers trembled.For some strange reason, the words “families should stay together” tugged at her heartstrings.It was true! There was no greater happiness than to be with family. Howeve

    “Mm?” Charlotte was taken aback.At that moment, she finally realized that even though she had missed Zachary very much, she had focused all her attention on her kids. She had arrived at Divine Sanctuary District nearly an hour ago, and yet she was only talking to Zachary now.She calmed herself. “No… I don’t think it’s a good idea…”Zachary, who was as noble as a king, spoke in a cold and imposing voice. “I’ve discussed it with Naomi. She wants to stay the night.”Charlotte’s lips quivered. Before she could answer, Naomi’s voice rang out like silver bells. “Yes, I wanna play with my big brother a little longer. We might end up playing all the way until bedtime. It’ll be very late then. But daddy says that we might end up running into bad people if we go home too late, so I promised daddy that I’d stay overnight with him and big brother. Mommy, you have to stay too.”Charlotte looked into Naomi’s pleading eyes and couldn’t bear to refuse. She finally nodded. “Alright.”Despite th

    This room was the very room she had stayed in that year.She and Zachary had agreed to sleep in separate rooms at the time, so from that moment on, she had slept in this room. More than four years ago, Lorraine had threatened her into divorcing Zachary. From that moment on, she had never entered this room again.However, she could remember exactly how it looked.She had never imagined that, even though four years had passed, this room would be exactly how she had left it. It was as if time had stopped in this room.At that moment, Charlotte couldn’t help remembering that Zachary had kept visiting her art studio over the past four years. He had thought that her spirit was still somewhere in that studio…‘Zachary! He’s kept this room exactly the way it was… It must’ve been his way of paying tribute to me!’Charlotte stood outside the bedroom door for a very long time before walking in.She lay on the bed that once belonged to her but realized that she couldn’t fall asleep at all.

    “About that...” Charlotte, who was standing extremely close to Zachary, had difficulty thinking normally. She tried her best to calm herself down. “How did you know that I’d come over?”“You asked the wrong question.” Zachary’s enchanting voice and warm breath brushed past Charlotte’s cheeks.At that moment, Charlotte only felt like her face was on fire. At the same time, her heart jumped wildly like a galloping horse.“Little girl, the question you should be asking at the moment is, why am I waiting for you here?” Zachary’s thin lips were pressed lightly against her earlobes and were quivering gently.Charlotte’s body was also trembling involuntarily along with the rhythm of his lips. She had no idea how she made a sound. “Why are you... waiting for me?”“Love.”‘What?!’ Charlotte’s eyebrows twitched non-stop.Zachary’s strong body had already closed in on her before she could recover from this trance, and he landed on the soft carpet with her.Rip!

    This was Lorraine and Jebediah’s wedding house, as well as the most luxurious detached villa in Rothesay.Lorraine was sitting on a rocking chair in the yard at the moment, holding a photo album in her hands.This photo album was a birthday gift that Zachary had given her seven years ago. After all these years, she had filled this photo album with the photos she and Zachary had taken together.“Sister Lory.” Upon hearing this voice, Lorraine closed the photo album hurriedly, looked at the person who was speaking at her, and breathed a sigh of relief.“Annabelle, you’re here.”“Yeah,” said a 16-year-old girl with a neat apple-head haircut who was so thin that she could be carried away by the light breeze at any time. “Sister Lory, would it be okay for us to speak now?”Lorraine nodded. “Shoot.”The girl was still looking around, making sure that there were no other people around, and then whispered, “Sister Lory, you asked me to monitor Charlotte Simmons’s every move and notify y

    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

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
