Charlotte’s car was still parked at Pearl Center.She got into the vehicle and called Coraline to let her know that she was safe. Then, just as she was about to drive off, she noticed a familiar white figure walking past her car. She lifted her gaze. That white figure was Tiffany, who was wearing a pearl-white skirt.‘How’d Tiffany know I was here? Why is she looking for me in a place like this?’Charlotte was about to get out of the car and question Tiffany when, just as her hand touched the car door handle, she heard Tiffany talking before she could open the door. “If anyone finds out that I relied on you to join the crew, it’ll have negative consequences for me. I think we should try to avoid each other.”Tiffany seemed to be talking to someone else… Then, she heard an ice-cold voice. “Obviously, I’ve thought of that too. I asked you to meet here today because I have an important task for you.”Charlotte only realized that someone was standing in front of Tiffany when she heard
Night King’s voice felt chilling despite the hot and stuffy atmosphere in the parking lot.Tiffany’s lips trembled, and she couldn’t say a word.Night King smirked. “Remember, I never do anything that doesn’t bring me profit. If you want me to make you famous, you’re going to have to show your sincerity by bringing me benefits. Otherwise, you’ll be worthless to me. Why should I make a worthless woman famous?”He quietly turned around as soon as he said this.Only then did Charlotte notice a tall, dark figure slowly walk away.Tiffany stared at the dark figure in a daze. She took three seconds to calm down before finding her voice again. “I feel as if we’ve met. Who are you?”“You don’t need to know who I am now, but you will one day. I’ll give you one day to consider my offer. Give me an answer by tomorrow at the latest.”The voice gradually faded away. Night King’s figure slowly walked away and soon disappeared.Tiffany stood in a daze in front of Charlotte’s car for a very lo
Charlotte’s clear eyes seemed to be smiling.“Go ahead.”Bryson stood in the darkness, his eyes filled with a layer of faint gloom. “I’d like you to put on a little show for me.”“What?” Charlotte shook her head. “Bryson, you know that I’m filming the sequel to The First Sorceress Princess at Virtual World. I can’t take any other roles until I’m done with this one.”“That’s not what I meant.” Bryson, who always portrayed himself as the dark Night King, curved his lips into a blooming smile. “I’ve arranged for a woman to come to your studio tomorrow. She’ll approach you while you’re at the studio. Once that happens, you and that woman will deliberately go somewhere near Tiffany. Stick to the contents of this paper and have a conversation with this woman. You need to let Tiffany hear you.”He handed Charlotte a piece of paper.Charlotte accepted it. The lighting was dim, so all she could see was a long note with many words. She couldn’t read it.Charlotte folded the paper and put
“Did you know, Miss Simmons? Mr. Harper used to be handsome and carefree. He was a man with a sunshine-like personality. However, ever since he survived being stabbed by Miss Miller four years ago, he’s completely changed. He’s become as dark as night, deep and melancholic… I’ve frequently met up with him ever since he assumed the persona of Night King. Every time I see him, I feel as if he’s no longer the same Mr. Harper I used to know. I feel as if I’m facing a cold stranger. However, when he spoke to you, I felt as if the old Mr. Harper had returned. He’ll only ever be his true self when he’s with you.”Charlotte couldn’t help feeling sad.Yes!She had also sensed a change in Bryson.However, people did change as time passed, especially after experiencing the highs and lows of life. She and Bryson had changed so much. They were different people now…They could never go back to how they used to be.Charlotte unfolded the A4 paper that Bryson had given her and looked through it
As Tiffany was at a loss for words, she heard Emma pitch her voice low and say, “Keep your voice down, Carlie. Tiffany is inside the gazebo and she might hear our conversation.”Charlotte lifted her brows and clicked her tongue. “There’s nothing to be worried about. Emmy, Tiffany is a b*tch and she’s the most despicable woman I’ve ever met. I hate her to the core, and just looking at her makes me want to puke. If she stays in the crew, won't that mean that I’ll have to throw up every time I film a scene with her? It'd be great if you could replace her.”“Carlie, you should thank Night King instead of me. He’s the one who got me into the crew...“Charlotte and Emma’s voices were getting fainter and fainter as they walked away.Tiffany was still standing frozen stiff in the gazebo, even though they had disappeared from her line of sight, and the flicker of nervousness that she had been hiding slowly appeared in her eyes.So the person who had started all this was Night King!‘Night
Be that as it may, judging from Lucas’s reaction, she had a hunch that this was not as simple as she imagined.It was already 9:30 p.m. when she got home. After she bathed Naomi and put her to bed, she still could not get through to Zachary, and Zachary had not replied to her text messages yet.Charlotte did not have a good feeling about it, and bad thoughts kept popping into her mind.She grasped her phone tightly and waited anxiously for his phone call.Finally, when it was about 10:00 p.m, Zachary gave her a video call. She hastily picked it up, her voice trembling out of anxiety.“Zachary, where are you now? Is everything fine?”“I’m on my way home,” Zachary replied, his voice as magnetic and seductive as before, even though he was talking on the phone.It was only then that Charlotte realized Zachary was driving.‘He video-called me while he’s driving?’Zachary lifted his shapely brows and replied, “You called me nine times and sent me six text messages. I don’t want you
The man’s name was William Wallace. He used to be a famous celebrity, but he had a fondness for little girls, little girls meaning young ladies in his case.Wu Bufan turned his nose up at girls over the age of twenty but had an avid interest in girls under the age of nineteen and often lured girls under the age of nineteen into doing shameful things with him by using various means.Then, something had happened to him three years ago.He had been sentenced to three years in prison for violating a 15-year-old girl, and since then, he had not only lost his reputation but had also been put in prison.Charlotte had heard that he had been released from prison not long ago, but he had gone off the grid, so nobody knew where he was. Never in Charlotte’s wildest dreams had she imagined that this once handsome celebrity had now turned into a pot-bellied man. Not only that, but he knew Tiffany as well!“I don’t understand what ‘getting your money’s worth’ means,” Tiffany replied, her voice f
She knew that Tiffany used to be a loose woman.Initially, she had thought that Tiffany would turn a new leaf after she married Zenios, her Prince Charming, and try her best to keep their marriage alive. However, she had not expected that Tiffany would be willing to cast away all her integrity just to become famous.“We made a bet yesterday. Now that Tiffany has compromised, it means I won the bet. You promised me that if I won, you would meet all my demands.”Charlotte felt a chill up her spine when she heard what Bryson had said. Her voice began to tremble as she said, “What… What do you want me to do?”“I want you to marry me,” Bryson said, emphasizing every syllable that spilled out of his mouth.Charlotte’s head buzzed.“Bryson, I did say yesterday that I would do anything you wanted me to do if you won the bet, but, but, but…” Charlotte stammered.‘I shouldn’t have promised him yesterday!’After all, she had been confident that Bryson would not win the bet since she’d tho
