“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
Seeing that Julius had no intention of continuing the conversation, Charlotte shrugged and said, “Let me down. I can walk on my own.”Julius smirked and said, “I’m worried that you can’t keep your balance and will fall down again just like what happened in the room just now.”The corner of Charlotte’s lips quivered.Julius shifted his gaze away from her face and added, “Don’t worry. I have permission from Zachary to carry you in my arms. Even that green-eyed monster doesn’t care, so why do you have to care so much?” A myriad of questions appeared in Charlotte’s head. However, she was too weak to break free from Julius. Besides, she found that although Julius was a weirdo, she felt comfortable in his arms.Ding!The door of the elevator opened and Julius went in with Charlotte in his arms. No sooner had the elevator door closed than the door to Room 1106 opened and Lorraine emerged from the room.“Trust me, Lory. She’s in Room 1102 right now. I’m sure that Julius and Charlotte
Zachary pointed at the spot on his right side. Then, he shot a glance at Zachary and went away. “Why are you in such a hurry to leave?” Zachary asked apathetically.“I know you don’t want to see me, so I think I should leave,” Julius said. He was wearing a white shirt today and he gave off the vibe of a celestial who had just come out of seclusion. However, at the moment, Charlotte had no idea why but she sensed a pang of sadness in him as she was looking at his back. Perhaps the night was too cold? Charlotte did not know.There was no expression on Zachary’s face. He sat upright in his seat like an emperor from ancient times and said, “In any case, I owe you one. If you had not gone in and saved Carlie, she would have been in big trouble.”“You don’t owe me anything, and I don’t know why you always want to push me away,” Julius said as the light in his eyes dimmed. “Then again, if you didn’t try to push me away, things between you and me would have been different.”After saying
