"..." Lucas was going crazy. "Excuse me, Miss. Please just let me go. The Second Master has already made this very clear, and I don't want to upset him." Charlotte said, "Are you afraid of him?" Lucas concurred. Who wouldn’t be afraid of him in Rothesay? Charlotte said, "Since you’re so afraid of him, aren’t you afraid that I’ll speak ill of you when I become his wife in the future?" Lucas was obviously dumbfounded. He then laughed and said, "Miss, are you daydreaming? It's impossible for anything to happen between you and the Second Master." "Is it?" Charlotte walked across from Lucas one step at a time. Although her face was full of traces of tears, her eyes were still full of pride. "You said that Zachary has never given any woman the opportunity to approach him, but he gave me two. If he wasn't interested in me, why would he do that?" Lucas scratched his curly golden hair. "This is all in the past, okay? The Second Master won't give you a third chance." "How
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 20 Forbidden Love
The Hathaway Group was a large enterprise with 321 branches under its umbrella. It was also a legend in the business world of Rothesay. The CEO of the Hathaway Group was Zachary Connor. The 100-story building of the group’s headquarters was located in the center of Rothesay City. Charlotte was stopped by a security guard as soon as she reached the gate. "Please show your pass." Charlotte raised her face. "I am Zachary’s friend. If you know what’s good for you, you'd better not stop me." The security guard was so frightened by Charlotte that he trembled. This woman had dared to call Mr. Connor by his first name, so her background could not be simple. Although Mr. Connor had always been cold and uninterested in women, this woman was attractive and beautiful. She may be the lover Mr. Connor had been secretly seeing. Would he get in trouble if he accidentally offended her? The security guard was hesitant to let Charlotte in. At that moment, another security guard said, "I
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 21 The First Person
Charlotte was already out of breath. She calmed down her breathing as much as she could and said bluntly, "This may be meaningless to you, but it’s the only way out for me. My father will be taken to court by Victor Rutherford. I have no other choice but to marry you." Ah... The man had prominent facial features, and there was a twinkle of scorn in his clear eyes. "Victor Rutherford is just sending your father to jail. If you upset me, I’ll wipe out the entire Simmons Family." Charlotte shivered in fear. Every time she stood in front of Zachary Connor, she felt like she was just a lone boat wandering in the vast ocean. His cold, dominant aura seemed able to shred her to pieces at any time. However, she could not retreat. Reality would not allow her to do so. She mustered all the courage she’d accumulated for the past 20 years and looked at Zachary firmly. "I know my limitations. I can’t afford to upset you, so I won't upset you ever again. Let's get married. When we get m
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 22 Nothing To Lose
Zachary Connor’s body went stiff. For a moment, he stood still in a daze. Charlotte went all out. She dived into Zachary's arms and wrapped her arms around his neck before kissing him harder and deeper. Everyone was stunned. Watching this was even more terrifying than watching a horror movie. It took at least three seconds before Zachary snapped out of his daze. He pushed Charlotte away violently and strangled her neck with his right hand. "Woman, do you have a death wish?!" The powerful strength of the man made Charlotte feel like her neck was about to snap. She could not breathe or make a sound. What scared her even more was Zachary's devilish eyes. He gritted his white teeth so hard that they clicked. Even the breath he exhaled from his mouth and nose was cold. Charlotte knew that she had angered the beast in Zachary Connor. She had no doubt that Zachary would strangle her to death. Everyone was frightened by Zachary Connor’s rage, and no one dared move forward t
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 23 Spur Of The Moment
Even now, Zachary still felt as if Charlotte's lips were pressing against his lips! "Darn it!" He threw the toothbrush into the trash can angrily and looked at his cold face in the mirror. ‘Zachary Connor, Zachary Connor!’ ‘Who would have thought that your first kiss would be stolen by force by a weak woman?!’ Zachary returned to the hall. In an instant, the whispering people went silent. When Zachary saw that Charlotte was still there, he could not believe his eyes. He took a closer look at her. When he confirmed that it was indeed her, his anger, which had not completely gone away, was ignited once again. "You ruined my reputation and you even stayed to watch?" Charlotte trembled when she met Zachary’s cold, murderous gaze. She tried her best to calm down. "I wouldn’t dare. I just realized that I shouldn't have embarrassed you in public on the spur of the moment, so I wanted to apologize when you came back." Spur of the moment? Surely this had been her ulterior
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 24 An Impossible Challenge
"No matter what you do to me, as long as I’m still alive, I’ll keep pestering you like I did today. I kissed your lips this time. Next time, I’ll do it again until you promise me." Zachary’s eyes were getting colder and colder. He looked as if he was about to tear Charlotte to pieces at any time. Charlotte's heart felt like it was jumping out of her chest, but she tried her best to look at him indifferently. Tick. Tick. Tick. The second hand of the European-style clock on the wall was ticking rhythmically. It was the only sound in the lobby. Everyone seemed to have turned into a sculpture as they stared at the woman with their eyes wide open. She was at a disadvantage, but she was still talking to Mr. Connor with extreme arrogance. Had she gone crazy? However, even a lunatic would not dare speak to Mr. Connor like that! Minutes and seconds went by. The two of them stayed in a stalemate just like that. The atmosphere in the lobby was suffocating. It lasted for
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 25 The City Hall
The moment the car stopped, Charlotte's stomach started churning. She pushed the car door and threw up violently. "You’re the first driver I’ve ever seen who drove themselves to the point of sickness." A cold, magnetic male voice came from above. Charlotte looked up. She did not know when Zachary had gotten out of the car. He leaned lazily on the door with his arms folded in front of his chest as he watched her with a calm, playful gaze. Charlotte smiled reluctantly. "Whatever. I won, so it's time for you to keep your promise." "Did you win?" Zachary sneered and stretched his right arm in front of Charlotte. "See for yourself." Charlotte looked down, and the time displayed on Zachary’s luxury watch pierced her eyes like a needle. It was 12:02! She was two minutes late! She had tried everything desperately, but in the end, she had still lost. "You’re courageous and you did try hard. Your driving skills are pretty decent too. Unfortunately, some things just aren’t m
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 26 The Winner
Charlotte couldn't help but smile. "So you haven't gotten off work yet, right?" The woman looked at the couple bitterly. "Of course not. Their divorce is more important than anything. Even if I don't get to eat or starve to death by the workstation, I still have to work overtime for them to get divorced." "Okay, got it. Thank you..." Charlotte turned to look at Zachary. "Mr. Connor, you heard that, right?" Zachary looked disdainful. "You’re simply wasting my time." This woman just would not stop! She had clearly lost, so what was the point of pulling him here just to listen to this female staff member complain? Charlotte raised her face. "Mr. Connor, surely someone as smart as you would know that he’s lost?" As if he had just heard a huge joke, Zachary had a combination of joy and anger in his eyes, which looked like a painting. "According to the bet we agreed on, if you got to the city hall before noon, you’d be considered the winner. When you arrived, it was alrea

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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1424 Can You Still Drive?
“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 CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1423 We Need A Ceremony
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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1422 I’m Not Scared
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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1421 Assassin Versus Assassin
“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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1420 The Wicked Woman
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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1419 Any Last Words?
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. You should

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
