Miranda, who was already extremely angry at Charlotte, was even more furious after being inflamed and agitated by Tiffany. “Huh! You may be afraid of her, but I’m not. Just you wait, Tiff. I swear on my name that I’ll make her life super-miserable this time!”Coraline not only ran a women’s clothing store but was also a fashion designer.When Charlotte walked into her store, Coraline was tailoring clothes for a female customer. Charlotte sat aside quietly and did not disturb her work.After sending the customer away, Coraline flicked her wallet at Charlotte. “I just made 50 dollars this morning. Let’s go, I’ll buy you lunch.”Charlotte shook her cell phone and wallet. “What’s this? I just sold 11 paintings at once, so let me treat you to lunch.”“Ah? Such a great thing actually happened?!” Coraline wrapped her arms around Charlotte’s arm as her eyes lit up.“Tell me, why would anyone buy so many paintings from you all at once? Did you seduce a rich boss of some sort? Don’t you li
“Coraline, don’t get me wrong, but when did I scold her? I’m just stating a fact! Don’t you know that Charlotte is the daughter of Kourtney Kleinman? Kourtney was an old vixen who was extremely promiscuous, so with Kourtney’s blood running in her veins, of course she’s a little vixen who’s... Aaaah—”The rest of her sentence was interrupted by her own screams, as Coraline had already lifted her leg and kicked Miranda in the belly.After Miranda was kicked, she stumbled backward and hit the French mirror in the store hard.Crash! The French mirror fell to the ground and shattered, and Miranda, who had lost her balance, fell onto the glass shards. She only let out a low, painful cry and passed out from the pain.“Ah! Someone was murdered here!” The customers outside the door squealed like a drift of pigs.Everyone swarmed outside the store immediately. “Oh my gosh, hurry up! Call nine-one-one!”“Call the police!”When she saw Miranda lying motionless in a pool of blood, Charlotte’
“I know.” Charlotte smiled weakly. “Luke, tell me, what would Zachary do?”Lucas shook his head. “If someone else had beaten Miranda, that person would definitely have been dead already. But Coraline is your best friend, so the Second Master won’t retaliate against Coraline for your sake. However, Miranda is as important as you are to the Second Master, so it’s impossible for the Second Master to force Miranda not to hold Coraline accountable for your sake. Therefore, if Miranda wants to take Coraline to court, the Second Master will do his best as an elder brother to get her the best lawyer in the city and send Coraline to prison.“Charlotte’s weak body swayed.“Milady!” Lucas hurriedly supported her. “Milady, let me speak for the Second Master. By doing this, the Second Master has actually done what’s best for you. Please don’t go to him and ask him to force Miranda to forgive Coraline. The Second Master would be stuck in a dilemma if you were to do so.”Charlotte raised her head
“The last time that little b*tch beat me, you got my brother to let her go. However, the evidence is in my hands this time around. You know that it won’t work even if you ask my brother to spare her, and I won’t fall for your tricks, so you’ve decided to just shut your bluffing mouth and pretend to be dumb!”Bam! A heavy album was thrown by Charlotte beside her pillow.She was stunned. “What is this?”Charlotte opened her delicate lips. “Why don’t you see for yourself?”Miranda opened this album doubtfully and saw the photos in it, her hands trembling with excitement instantly while her eyes lit up. “Heh. Never would I have thought of this. Charlotte Simmons, you never fail to impress me. You really are just like Kourtney Kleinman. Morality is really nothing but a joke to both of you, and there’s no limit to what you can do...”“Stop all that nonsense!” Charlotte interrupted Miranda coldly. “You let Cora go, and I’ll give you this photo album. Now, just tell me, do we have a deal?
It was a phone call from Cora, so Charlotte picked it up.Coraline’s voice came from the earpiece immediately. “Carlie, Officer Zimmerman told me that Miranda will no longer hold me accountable, so I’ve been released. I can’t seem to figure it out. I’ve always been a thorn in her flesh, so why would she act so abnormally all of a sudden? Did you go to her and beg her for mercy?”Charlotte smiled as if nothing had happened. “I can rest assured now that you’re safe. Don’t worry about anything else that much.”“Carlie!” Coraline’s voice obviously sounded worried. “Miranda wouldn’t let me go for no reason. Don’t try to change the topic. Tell me, did you strike a deal with her?”“Yeah.” Afraid of worrying Coraline, Charlotte tried her best to make her voice calm.“Anyway, Miranda is my sister-in-law. We’re a family. I just gave her something that she wanted and made her very happy, so she won’t make it hard for you anymore. Don’t worry, nothing will go wrong for me.”“Okay...” Coralin
“Do you know what, bro? I pity you. You were suffering from the hurt Lorraine caused you not too long ago, and then you ran into Charlotte Simmons, an even more nefarious and filthy b*tch! You’re pathetic!”Zachary immediately turned sullen.He parted his thin lips and was just about to speak when Tiffany tossed a photo album onto his lap.“Stap saying that I’m biased. See for yourself!”Zachary opened the photo book.An unsightly picture met his gaze. His handsome face turned as dark as a cauldron’s bottom.Zachary, whose eyes had initially held some warmth, now became as cold and ruthless as Hades himself. His eyes released an apocalyptic cold light, and Miranda felt secretly gleeful…‘Your death is near, Charlotte Simmons! This time, my brother will definitely kick you out. Let’s see how you’re going to push Tiffany around once you lose my brother’s support!’…The strength had returned to Charlotte’s legs, but she remained seated on the bench by the side of the road in a d
Charlotte’s eyes met his cold, abstruse gaze, which seemed like it could freeze everything in its path, at that very moment. Her face paled even more from fright, and she nearly stopped breathing.“Explain yourself clearly.”Zachary’s voice was as cold as ice, yet deadly and charming at the same time. It came at her all at once.She had lost all sense of cognitive thought and was now scared out of her wits.“W-What would you like me to explain?”“Explain the pictures. I still haven’t heard your explanation.”Looking perfectly handsome, Zachary gazed into her eyes with his dark, inky, icy gaze.“Oh… That…”Charlotte took a deep breath. Thoroughly intimidated by his powerful aura, she could no longer keep it from him.“Two years ago, on the night of my birthday, Zenios, Bryson, Coraline, and I had a lot to drink. We all got really tipsy, so in our drunkenness, Zenios suggested we break away from the norm, and… we took those pictures…”“You only took pictures?”Zachary glanced
He had felt as if a poisoned dart had pierced his heart when he had seen those pictures in his room. Every time he breathed, he ached, he agonized, he was hit by jealousy…Zachary released her chin. She hung her head like a child who had done something wrong.“Cora only developed three copies and put them in three albums. Bryson, Zenios, and I have one copy each.”“Heh. So she ‘only’ developed three copies!”Zachary, who rarely showed any emotion, seemed to harbor a lot of hatred for the word “only”. He gritted his teeth as he said the word.“Sounds about right. Three copies aren’t enough. She should have developed 6 billion and given one to every person in the world.”His deep, strange tone scared Charlotte, who took a step back.Zachary felt an agonized pang in his heart when he saw her trembling in the wind. A large part of his rage diminished.“Hang on, sit down.”He swiftly took off his jacket and draped it over her slender figure. He was left with a thin shirt on. He the
