“I’m not sure...” Upon seeing that warmth and expectation had appeared in Zachary’s eyes that were still so cold just now when he heard the news, Lucas did not bear to kill his hope in an instant and smiled.“Actually, the clue I found was that the place where you spent the night with the woman was within a few hundred meters away from Bryson and Mrs. Connor’s wedding room. It might even, it’s very likely, to have taken place in their wedding room!“And Mrs. Connor had also experienced the same incident that night. Why are there so many coincidences? I can’t help but wonder whether the woman that you’ve been searching for is Mrs. Connor!”Zachary was silent. When thinking about it sensibly, the possibility of him making out with Charlotte on that night was zero.But why, why would his heart still feel agitated like there was a volcanic eruption deep down when he heard what Lucas said as if he was looking forward to… the woman from that night was really Charlotte!Then, the child t
A formidable demon living at the top of the pyramid like Zachary would certainly have his secret kinks…‘Dad is right! I’ll never be able to repay Zachary for everything he’s done for my family. I’ll have to try my best to tolerate Zachary’s kink.’Although she found Zachary’s kink unbearable, on a more positive side, it was still better than those abusive wife beaters.Besides, if she took Zachary’s little kink out of the equation, he had not only helped her punish her cheating ex, but he had even taken an arrow for her. He was actually very nice to her.Charlotte tossed her teddy bear into the drawer after feeling convinced, picked up the gold card from the trash can, and walked toward the door.She pushed open the bedroom door and found Zachary standing at the doorway.She was stunned. Then, she lifted the corners of her lips into a stiff smile.“Uh… I was just about to look for you. Since you’re here, I’ll just get to the point. We’re husband and wife, so there’s no need to
“No, thanks.”Charlotte’s gaze filled with disdain, fully reminded that Zachary was treating her like a prostitute.“I’m not going to use our marriage as a way to tie you down. If you enjoy spending money on other women, you can go right ahead. I have no qualms.”Her only wish was for that incident to never happen again.She was only too eager for Zachary to pursue other women!Zachary did not explain. Instead, he playfully stuck out his finger. “The money in this card is enough to buy your father’s company, a hundred times over.”Charlotte’s eyes nearly popped out of her eye sockets as if a lightning bolt hit her.Simmons Inc., her father’s company, had a market value of more than 1.5 billion. ‘Enough money to buy Simmons Inc. a hundred times over? What kind of logic was that?’Charlotte immediately understood that Zachary hadn’t been silencing her with money. He was silencing her with a large mountain of gold!“Is this… true?”Charlotte’s voice trembled. Her eyes stared a
“Carlie! Why are you always making these sarcastic remarks?”Bryson’s handsome face instantly turned sullen.“Fine, I’m not in the mood to argue with you. I only have one purpose for my visit today. Stop manipulating Zachary like a gun and using him on Tiff!”Charlotte sneered. “I have no idea what you’re talking about, and I don’t want to know either. Bryson, the very sound of your voice makes me nauseous. Now, I’m going to ask you very nicely. Get out of my studio. Buh-bye!”“Charlotte Simmons, you’ve gone too far! Zachary would never blacklist Tiffany for no reason. You must have manipulated him into this somehow. I’ve paid every price to mold Tiff into the best female music artist so that she could use that title to infiltrate the acting circle. In the end, because of Zachary’s blacklist, the number one film crew, which promised her a role, is too afraid to use her. Other film crews are avoiding her too. The money I’ve invested in her has gone to waste… Charlotte Simmons! This
“Well, Charlotte, since you’re in a much better position, and I have everything I want, you could say we’ve both won. Why should we continue this war? You can take the high road, and I’ll cross my own bridges. I promise never to interfere in your life again.”Tiffany raised her head, looking completely complacent.She hated Charlotte for separating her from Bryson. That’s why she had constantly been singling her out.‘But why should Charlotte hate me? She would be saddled with Bryson for the rest of her life. If I hadn’t destroyed her relationship with Bryson, she would never have met Zachary, the man whom every woman in Rothesay wants. I helped her! She should be grateful to me!’“This is your definition of ‘calling a truce’? After everything you’ve said, you’re just like Bryson. You’re only here to beg me for mercy because my husband’s blacklisted you, and you have nowhere else to go.”Charlotte frowned. Her smile filled with disdain.“Alright, I can ask Zachary to spare you, b
The car door swung open. The man who stepped out of it was dressed in an immaculate, luxury brand suit. He looked noble and majestic, like a king. It was Zachary.‘Oh my God! Why, of all times, did he have to show his face now? Bryson and Tiffany are at the door!’Bryson, who was stationed at the art studio door, saw Tiffany running toward him with tears in her eyes. His heart broke as he quickly wrapped his arms around her. “Tiffany! She has upset you again, hasn’t she?”Tiffany’s tears continued streaming down her face.“It’s not Carlie’s fault, Bryse. It’s mine… I was too stupid and naive. I actually placed my hopes on her, only to cause my own humiliation in the end… You’re right, Bryce. Carlie is completely different. She’s not as kind as she used to be…”Tiffany wept even harder as if it pained her to continue speaking.Bryson’s heart ached for Tiffany, and he felt increasingly disappointed in Charlotte at the same time.‘Is this a case of a woman following her husband, no
Zachary’s well-defined face did not show a trace of emotion, and his voice sounded rather neutral. “So, you want me to stop banning Tiffany?”“It’s not whether you want to do so or not. You have to do it anyway! Tiffany is innocent. She’s the purest and kindest girl in the world and more qualified to receive the red carpet treatment than any other female celebrities in showbiz now. No one is qualified to block her! You’re no exception!”Bryson held Tiffany tightly in his arms with a gentle and affectionate appearance as if he was holding a rare treasure.When looking at this scene, Zachary’s eyebrows were creased in disgust. “Since you want to make this woman popular, I’ll help you with that.”Bryson did not expect Zachary to agree to his request so easily. His eyes betrayed a hint of surprise.A glimmer of triumphant amusement flashed across Tiffany’s tear-covered eyes.Lucas sneered. ‘Hah! Since when did Tiffany, the scheming b*tch, become so innocent? She actually thought that
“Hmm... Considering that you’re suffering to make up your mind right now, let me give you an idea. From Tiffany’s point of view, virtues like loyalty and chastity aren’t important at all to a woman like her! You should think about it from her perspective. As long as she can become popular, she will do it even if she needs to conceive for 100, 1,000, or even 10,000 men, let alone giving birth to a child for only one man! So, there’s no need for you to hesitate, just do as Second Master said and help her fulfill her dream. Otherwise, she’ll hate you forever.”Bryson’s teeth kept gnashing against each other, and he finally squeezed a dull tone out of his throat. “Shut up and scat—”Lucas blinked. “Sigh! I’m just trying to help. Then I shall leave you with your entangled mind. Take it slow and steady. Don’t overdo it until you get your brain fried!”‘My admiration for Second Master just won’t stop growing! Second Master just forced Bryson into a dilemma! If he were to act according to S
