Chapter 19 “Sister-In-Law”

"..."

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 do you know?" Charlotte shook the parasol in her hand. "If Zachary really didn’t have any feelings for me, why did he give me this parasol? He also said that he cares about protecting my skin, so he does care about me a lot."

What?!

The Second Master had given her a parasol and sarcastically told her to protect her skin for Victor Rutherford. He had obviously done this to mock her!

Why would she think that he cared about her?

Lucas was a little confused.

Charlotte smiled with her lips pursed when she saw that Lucas was starting to waver.

"If you were willing to help me now, I’d remember this favor. But if you don't help me and I end up being with Zachary in the future, I’ll definitely badmouth you behind your back. The choice is yours to make."

Lucas stared at her blankly.

Charlotte then went on. "I will give you three seconds to think about it. I won’t wait anymore."

"Three..."

"Two..."

"One..."

She turned around and left.

"Don't go! Don't go!" Lucas had long legs, so he took a few big steps and stepped forward to block Charlotte’s way.

"Hey, sister-in-law, don't get angry. Your business is mine too, so I’ll help you. I’ll definitely help!"

After three seconds of deliberation, Lucas had thought things through and realized that the probability of Charlotte Simmons becoming the Second Master's wife was indeed very high. He could not afford to offend her.

Charlotte had not expected Lucas to be so easy to deceive. She was secretly delighted, but she pretended to look serious. "Zachary just left, so where is he going next? Take me to see him."

Lucas hurriedly took out a schedule to take a look. He then said, "According to yesterday's plan, the Second Master was supposed to arrive at the company headquarters for a meeting at 11:15 after getting your marriage certificate this morning."

Charlotte said, "So he’s going to the company headquarters now?"

"Uh… I don't know where the Second Master is going now, but he will certainly be there by 10:15."

Charlotte pondered it for a while and said, "Take me to his company headquarters. I want to see him."

"What? You can’t!" Lucas shook his head violently.

"Sister-in-law, I betrayed the Second Master by telling you his schedule. I’m already risking my life. If I blatantly take you there to see him, he’s going to castrate me. I’ve never even had a girlfriend before, so I haven't tasted what it's like to be with a girl. I don't want to be a eunuch."

Charlotte curled her lips in embarrassment. "Forget it, I won't put you in a difficult position. I’ll go by myself."

"Wait a minute!"

Lucas' expression looked obsequious.

"He he... Sister-in-law, if you really end up marrying the Second Master in the future, don't forget your matchmaker."

Charlotte smiled lightly. "Don’t worry about it."

As she got out of Lucas' sight, her smile quickly faded and turned into sorrow.

After several encounters with Zachary Connor, Charlotte had deeply understood his indifference and strength of character.

In the drag race yesterday, she had earned a second chance for herself by risking her life.

This time, could she earn a third chance?

Even though she knew that the chances were slim… Even though she knew that she might have to fight until she bled on the iceberg that was Zachary Connor, she had no choice but to give it a go!
