It was because an unsightly man had gotten his hands onto her.“Mmmmm—” Bryson’s body trembled violently together with the chair that he was chained to.At that moment, Charlotte could not help but be attracted to Tiffany.Tiffany somehow managed to muster enough strength from thin air to push the man who was about to assault her away. “Get away from me!”Unexpectedly, this feeble woman suddenly erupted with such great strength that the man was dumbfounded. The half-naked Tiffany suddenly stepped onto the head of the bed and climbed onto the window sill.One of the men reached out to pull her. She screamed, kicked the man’s hand away, and opened the window.“I won’t let anyone except Bryce tarnish my chastity again, even if it means to die. If either one of you dares to lay another finger onto me, I’ll jump from here!”It was so touching that Bryson’s eyes were filled with tears.At the same time, the heartache he felt within his chest worsened because of his inability to save
Bryson turned on the recorder dubiously.Tiffany’s voice immediately sounded. “Mr. Connor, I don’t know what happened. And what did I do to offend you? Why would you break into my house all of a sudden—”“That’s enough!” Zachary’s indifferent voice interrupted Tiffany. “Now, answer my question.”“...”“Eleven months ago, I had just escaped from Burasia to Rothesay. A mysterious man contacted me. He had his subordinates transfer some money to me and promised to help me break Bryson and Carlie’s relationship, wipe off my filthy past in Burasia, and help me live happily ever after with Bryson…”“Ever since I moved to Burasia, I had nothing when I returned to Rothesay. If I followed that mysterious man’s instructions, he could give me money, love, and everything I’ve ever wanted. So, I agreed and decided to become one of his pawns.”Upon hearing this, the emotions beaming in Bryson’s eyes turned from anger to shock, doubt, and disappointment!Tiffany was also struck by lightning. Sh
‘Anyway, the Bryson Harper that I once knew died long ago. Since he has been bewitched by Tiffany voodoo, I should just let him live in the lies that his beloved woman meticulously cooked up for him. Anyway, he likes it so!‘But this doesn’t mean that I will no longer get back at Tiffany in the future. I’ll make sure that she suffers every ounce of agony that she has made me endure. However, when I get my revenge on Tiffany in the future, I’ll never consider how Bryson thinks again...‘Even if Bryson were to suffer due to his involvement in the grudge between Tiffany and me. He’s the one who asked for it!“Charlotte, so you’re just going to leave without saying a single word? Not even an apology to Tiff? You—”“Bryce, don’t be so harsh on Carlie. I think she must feel very sad too.” Tiffany’s cheek was resting on Bryson’s chest. She looked as pure as the driven snow, but the resentment in her heart was as lethal as a viper’s venom.‘Charlotte Simmons, stop being so naive. If you c
Bryson knew that he could not save Tiffany anymore this time around. The only thing he could do was to close his eyes in pain and not witness the savage scene of Tiffany being violated.Tiffany’s tears gushed downward even more turbulently.Although such an event was nothing more than common to her as she had had the experience of making out with six men at once, the six men that Zachary had carefully selected for her were as hideous as toads and as dirty as the bathroom of a pigsty. Thus, even if she had always been casual in her sexual preferences, she would still feel disgusted and excruciating pain deep down after experiencing it with these six men as if her insides had been stung by a venomous wasp...“Stop it! You’re not allowed to defile Tiffany!” A sharp and stern female voice came out of nowhere all of a sudden.In the next second, a crimson Bugatti drove up to the scene at top speed and was stopped between Tiffany and the six horrible-looking men. Two of them could not st
Zachary’s face immediately turned into a terrifyingly grim shade. “You dare!”“I will if you’re going to pursue this!”Miranda turned toward the wretched-looking Tiffany, held down on the lawn by the ugly men, and tears filled her eyes.“When we became best friends, Tiffany and I swore that we’d die for each other. Tiffany is the very symbol of purity. In fact, she considers her own purity more important than her own life. She’s tried to commit suicide several times after Charlotte sent those men after her. Luckily, Bryson stopped her. She’d never be able to live her life after this. What you’re doing is equivalent to killing her!”Zachary curled his perfect lips into a smirk.“Don’t worry. Even if she opts for suicide, she’ll always have someone to stop her. Her suicide attempts will never succeed!”“Don’t you dare make fun of Tiffany! I won’t stand for it!” Miranda tugged at her collar with both hands.“I’m perfectly capable of keeping my word, brother. If you’d like to see
Charlotte paused, surprised.Bryson’s bloodshot eyes betrayed a mixture of disappointment and disdain as he glared at her.“I used to be grateful to you for carrying a child in Tiffany’s place. I would try my best to forgive you, regardless of what you’ve done to Tiffany. Now, I finally understand that I’ve been stupid for pinning my hopes on you. You don’t have a heart. From now on, I’m cutting you off. Charlotte Simmons, from now on, there will be no sentiment left between us, only hatred.”“Heh…”Charlotte burst into scornful laughter in the face of Bryson’s cold and stern exterior.“You talk as if we actually have sentiment between us. You should’ve said these words to me long ago. I severed all ties with you from the moment you tricked me into carrying a stranger’s child, just to spare Tiffany’s innocence.”Bryson’s ears went red as if he had received a slap in the face.Charlotte raised her brows proudly.“However, you were right, for once. Seeing as you and Tiffany are b
“I don’t understand…”Miranda grabbed Zachary’s arm in panic.“What do you mean you ‘won’t let me off so easily? You cruelly cut half of my yearly allowance back in the hospital. How much more are you going to cut off if I ever see Tiffany?”Zachary’s dark, inky eyes were as cold as glaciers.“I love you so much. How could I possibly bear to deprive anymore of your living expenses?”Miranda heaved a sigh of relief.‘My brother may indulge me, but he’s always very stern when it comes to disciplining me. He’s already cut off half of my yearly allowance and hasn’t given me a single cent since then. I’ve tried to coax him many times, but it’s useless.’She had gotten used to living a life of luxury. It had been unbearable enough for her to survive with half a year’s allowance. How would she survive if Zachary had cut any more of her allowance?“However, I am perfectly fine with making Tiffany suffer. If you ever see her again, I will torment her so much that she’ll wish she were de
Zachary remained completely silent throughout the entire journey.Charlotte accompanied him in his silence.Just as they had arrived at the gates of Divine Sanctuary district, Lucas noticed something out of the ordinary and hit the brakes.“Second Master, look, it’s her…”At that moment, Charlotte, who was seated next to Zachary, could feel his poker-straight body stiffen.Then, Charlotte watched as a woman with an enchanting figure made her way to the front of the car.Charlotte’s heart immediately stopped when she saw the woman’s beautiful face.Zachary pushed the car door open and got out of the vehicle at once.Charlotte followed suit as if pulled by an invisible string.The woman gave Charlotte a clear, bright smile.“Long time no see, Carlie. You’ve grown into such a beautiful young woman. It’s no wonder you’re known as the ‘most wanted socialite of Rothesay’ to those who’ve met you. It also explains why, out of thousands of women, Zachary chose you in the end.”The co
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
“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 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
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
“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
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
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
