“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
Charlotte was surprised and ecstatic. “Do you have the chat records of her invitation?”Zenios’s sapphire eyes sparkled.“It’s an important piece of evidence. Of course I… Ah, look! She’s here!”Charlotte followed the direction of Zenios’s pointing finger and saw a blue Porsche stopping by the side of the road. The man and woman who stepped out of the vehicle arm in arm were Bryson and Tiffany.Zachary, whose cold exterior was highly reminiscent of Hades, frightened Tiffany into shrinking behind Bryson.“Bryce, I don’t want to see him. You go.”“Mm.”He gently stroked the back of Tiffany’s hand in consolation and then strode firmly toward Zachary.“I’ve brought what you asked for. However, this matter concerns Tiffany. If I give this to you, will you fulfill your part of the agreement?”Zachary snorted. “Those who spend too much time with a scheming snake will naturally develop a strong sense of skepticism.”Bryson’s handsome face looked awkward. Then, his eyes seemed filled
She raised the phone in her right hand in front of Bryson.Instead, Bryson simply glanced crudely at it and disdainfully replied, “Do you take me for a fool, Charlotte Simmons? Or have you overestimated your own intelligence? The person chatting with Zenios isn’t even Tiffany. Is this your attempt to slander her? By creating a random account to fabricate these chat records?”Tiffany, who seemed aggrieved on the surface, was smirking deep down.Zenios was her favorite celebrity, her dream guy, and the man she wanted to sleep with most of all.The very day she had run into Zenios at the shopping mall, Zenios had actually agreed to add her as a friend on Facebook. She had felt as if her heart was on fire when she’d said goodbye to Zenios. She simply hadn’t been able to contain her urge to have intercourse with Zenios… so she had decided to invite him over!However, despite her impulsive behavior, she wasn’t stupid enough to do it by using her real Facebook account.She had used a se
