“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! The pajamas, which were as
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
When Charlotte rushed to the Virtual World Film Studios, she realized that the shooting base was extremely boisterous.It turned out that the sequel to The First Sorceress Princess would start its filming schedule officially soon. Today, Dickson, as the director and producer of the film, had asked everyone in the crew to be present for the opening ceremony.When Charlotte got out of the car, Tiffany, who was having fun chatting with several other actors, became as quiet as a mute and walked away immediately.Charlotte was secretly overjoyed. Jezebel came forward and greeted her, wrapping her arms around Charlotte intimately. “Tiffany was still showing off how close she is to you yesterday. Have you noticed that she’s stopped doing so since you scolded her in public? She’s avoiding you like a mouse hiding from a cat.”Charlotte laughed proudly. “It’s smart of her to avoid me. If she continued pretending to be close to me hypocritically, I would give her a good beating in public inst
Charlotte had never received such huge praise. She was breathing rapidly for quite a while out of excitement, and her heart seemed to have stopped beating.“About that...” She took a deep breath secretly, trying to keep her voice from trembling. “I think what Mr. Barkley said was a bit of an exaggeration. I’m just an ordinary member of this crew. I’m not as important as he portrayed me to be… But anyway, thank you, everyone.”She grabbed the cup of tea on the table with her slightly shaky hand and lifted it calmly.“Carlie, shouldn’t you be having wine instead of tea this time?” someone in the crowd said.Someone else added immediately, “Yeah, you had tea instead of wine when everyone toasted you just now. We know that you’re allergic to alcohol, so we wouldn’t ask you to drink alcohol normally, but this toast represents our regard, so I think you should at least have one drink.” “That’s right, Carlie. Just a glass will be enough. It’s just a glass of wine, it’s nothing...”Eve
This was a star-rated hotel that combined both catering and lodging into one. Jezebel took Charlotte to room 1102. “Carlie, do you want to take a shower? Let me get you to the bathroom,” Jezebel said as she carried Charlotte to the bathroom.Charlotte hastily pulled her right arm out of Jezebel’s grip and said, “It’s okay, Jez. I’m fine. Thank you for helping me into my room. I guess I will just get some rest now.” It was very apparent that she was asking Jezebel to leave, but Jezebel seemed oblivious to the hint and held Charlotte’s arm again. Charlotte knew Jezebel did it out of goodwill, so she did not push her away and allowed her to lead her to the bed. Charlotte could not hold her liquor well. She threw herself on the bed and closed her eyes. Right now, all she wanted to do was have a good night’s sleep. Suddenly, she felt a strange sensation in her chest. She cracked her eyes open and found that Jezebel had not left yet. Instead, she was sitting beside the bed while her h
‘Julius Randall!’The face of Julius appeared on Charlotte’s mind the moment she heard the voice. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Julius walking toward her step by step. There was no wind in the room, but his white shirt was fluttering in tandem with his steps, making him look like a god descending from heaven.In the past, Charlotte had not liked to interact with Julius at all since she felt that he was a weirdo. However, a strong surge of happiness welled from the depths of her stomach pit this time. She stared at him and said, “Mr. Randall, please save me.”“What do you think I'm doing here if I'm not here to save you?” Julius said as a playful grin danced on his lips. He turned to Jezebel and added in a grave tone, “Let her go.”Gritting her teeth, Jezebel glared at Julius and snarled, “Julius Randall, I’ve warned you many times. Stop getting in my way. I’m in a great mood today, so just pretend you didn't see anything and go on your merry way. I will forget th
