“This video is not the only thing that I have on you. There is also shameful history that I covered for you before this. What Bryson did to you has caused you to end up in the streets. I’ll ruin you if you dare to go against my will.”Tiffany’s eyes were blank, and her body trembled.Jebediah’s voice became even colder. “Are you coming or not?!”Tiffany did not dare to hesitate anymore. She opened the car door and got into the car immediately.Lorraine, who had been sitting in the passenger seat, shook her head disdainfully.‘Look at her! Ever since Bryson realized her true colors, just how miserable has her life become thanks to him? But Bryson is nowhere near what Zachary is capable of. Zachary is way crueler and more determined than Bryson. It’s just that Zachary hasn’t recovered from the trance to want to get back at Charlotte. As soon as Zachary starts to retaliate against Charlotte, he’ll definitely make Charlotte’s fate 100 times more miserable than Tiffany’s.’...Charlo
“So, Carlie, the only one who can save you right now is me.” Zenios’s breathtakingly handsome face gave off clear joy.A glimmer of hope finally beamed within Charlotte’s heart that was filled with despair. “Yeah, you’re Zachary’s nephew, and he loves you the most. He’ll definitely let me go if you were to intercede for me.”“No! No! In this case, it’s useless for anyone to intercede with Second Uncle.” Zenios’s head shook like a rattle.The hope that Charlotte finally saw was shattered.In the next second, she heard Zenios explain, “But if you were to marry me, you’ll become Second Uncle’s niece-in-law, a family member. No matter how much Second Uncle hates you, he won’t lay a finger on his own family member. That means Uncle Simmons will be safe too.”‘This...’ Charlotte was a little confused.She could feel that Zenios’s hands were clearly trembling.“I’ve investigated the man who had an extramarital affair with you. His name is Igor Burgov. Today, after Second Uncle found ou
“Hey, there’s no point going anyway! Zenios, don’t go! Zenios…” Charlotte cried.Zenios, however, had already bolted out the door. His tall figure disappeared from view in the hallway in the blink of an eye.Coraline shook her head.Zenios may seem unruly on the outside, but he’s a highly devoted lover. Coraline had been aware of Zenios’s feelings for Charlotte three years ago, but she had kept his secret.‘Sigh! Poor Zenios! Carlie was infatuated with Bryson when he fell in love with her, yet he continued his devotion for her without regret. He quietly played the part of a younger brother and kept her company in good times and bad, listening to how much she loved Bryson… And when he was alone, he would quietly lick his wounds. Finally, after holding on and waiting for Carlie to break up with Bryson, she became his aunt before he could confess his feelings!’Charlotte remained unsettled after Zenios left.More than half an hour later, Zenios called.“I’m sorry, Carlie. I’m such
At Platinum Coast, a villa by the sea...This was Charlotte and Bryson’s honeymoon room, also known as the venue for Charlotte and Zachary’s one-night stand, where Zachary’s baby was conceived.A security guard hurriedly stepped forward when he saw Charlotte emerge from a taxi.“Miss Simmons, Mr. Harper has been waiting for you. Please come in.”Charlotte stared at the metal door as the security guard opened it.A few months ago, when she had ended her relationship with Bryson, utterly disillusioned, she had silently sworn that she would never set foot in this place again.However, now, she took a deep breath and walked in!Underground Garage 23 was her meeting spot with Bryson.The garage door was half-closed. She pushed it open and saw Bryson’s handsome, straight figure at once.“You’re here, Carlie!”The gentle and charming Bryson’s clear gaze was a mixture of joy and warmth.“Once I heard that you’d cheated on Zachary, I knew that something wasn’t right. This is your so-
“AARRGGHHH!”The skin-tearing agony made Igor scream in pain. The area around his lips bled.Charlotte felt apprehensive at his pathetic sight. However, her heart turned cold when she remembered everything he had done.“I knew we’d meet again, but I didn’t think that we’d see each other so soon.” Igor lifted his face and looked at her. “Miss Simmons, I’ve told you, I’m nothing more than someone else’s chess piece. I can’t help you.”“Oh, really?” Charlotte smirked.“During your conspiracy with Lorraine, why didn’t you tell Zachary that you’re ‘nothing more than someone else’s chess piece’ when you trampled all over my innocence in front of him? My reputation is beyond repair, thanks to you. You really are a chess piece. You can’t help me at all.”The man found himself unable to reply.Charlotte lowered her gaze and observed the man. Even though this was only her third meeting with the man, he was still a stranger to her.This man may resemble Bryson in some ways, but his looks
Igor released a heart-wrenching scream and stared at Charlotte in disbelief.He never imagined that this pure, fresh, clean, and seemingly harmless girl would actually have such a cold heart. She had shot four bullets into his arms and legs without blinking an eye.“Just a lesson for you. Remember, these four bullets are just the beginning of your suffering.”She knew that there was no use in threatening Igor, so she threw the gun back at Bryson once she said this, turned around, and left. Bryson was shocked as he stared at her cold, arrogant face.“How would you like me to deal with him?”“Just don’t kill him.”Charlotte walked out of the garage, lifted her gaze, and stared up at the cloudy sky. Her fair face was a mixture of sadness and iciness. “I’m going to make him watch as I clear my name. I want him alive so that he’ll be ready for Zachary’s punishment.”Igor let out a soft groan, weak due to his immense loss of blood as if he had received a head-on blow. He foamed at t
Bryson was even more sure of it than ever when he saw her walk away in a hurry.He knew her very well.Knowing her stubborn, unyielding personality, she would have automatically left Zachary upon discovering that he and Lorraine had broken up over a misunderstanding and had a kid together. She would have allowed them to be together.However, she refused to leave him.Even now, after enduring such a huge disaster with him, she still refused to give up.All of this was because of love!‘Charlotte Simmons! She had once loved me as much as this too. No matter how much of a failure I was during the initial stages of my career, she refused to leave me. If only I had appreciated the love she had for me, Zachary would never have had the chance to enter her heart. It was me, I handed her over to another man.’Her heart had left him now, and he was left far behind.Charlotte had just left the gates of Platinum Coast when the phone in her pocket buzzed.Charlotte broke into a cold sweat
As expected, Zachry’s voice grew even grimmer. “Are you humiliating me?”“What? No!” Charlotte hastily replied, her voice gurgled off in an incoherent manner, “I… I just used to talk to you like this. I’m not… Really… And I wouldn’t dare humiliate you as well.”Zachary remained silent. The darkness in his eyes was so deep it was as if it could devour everything in the world. “So are you saying that it’s not humiliating for me that my wife is pregnant with another man’s child?”Charlotte was tongue-tied.“So, what’s it that you want?” Zachary pressed on, his voice frigid, causing Charlotte to freeze.She took a few deep breaths inwardly, and then she said, “Actually… I know I’ve told you before that I hope you can stay calm and don’t do anything to my dad for the time being, but I still feel worried about it. This is because when Zenios interceded with you for me, you’re angry, so—”“Hah!” Zachary scoffed mirthlessly, cutting her short. “So, this is the reason you called me?”C
