The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 55 Taking The Fall
“Second Master, do you want me to drive you and Ms. Connor home?”Zachary’s face was cold and his gaze gloomy. “Take us to The People’s Hospital of Rothesay.”“Huh!? Why do you need to go to the hospital?”“Mimi got beaten.” Freezing-cold syllables escaped his gnashing teeth.Lucas looked worried.Zachary’s younger sister had always been an arrogant lady. He had spoiled her so much that she kept stirring up trouble around the city without having to bear any of the consequences. She was so full of herself that even Lucas could not get along with her. Therefore, Lucas was not worried about how severe her injuries were but how the person who had hit her would end up.Had that person not looked up whose sister Miranda was before hitting her?At the hospital...Zachary knocked on the door of a delux ward.The nurse opened the door quickly.The interior of the ward looked magnificent. A custom-made, luxurious bed was in a ventilated corner, and a lady with fiery red, wavy hair was
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 56 Hoisted By Her Own Petard
“...”Her heart fluttered like a nervous bird in a cage in her ribcage as her initial bravery and confidence slowly withered away. While she took the brunt of Zachary’s high-wattage aura, her teeth and lips were chattering. She could not even utter a single syllable.“Please don’t give Carlie a hard time, Mr. Connor. I was there when the accident happened, so I can vouch for Carlie. The person who injured Mimi was not her but her bestie, Coraline. She must have been worried that you’d get back at Coraline, so she took the blame for her,” Tiffany chimed in as she offered Charlotte an assuring grin.Charlotte sneered inwardly. She was not stupid enough to believe that Tiffany would stand up for her. After all, Tiffany must have known that if she were given a choice, she would rather she received Zachary’s wrath herself.It was just that she did not know what Zachary was thinking right now.Practically every single man that walked the earth would fall for a petite, fragile girl like
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 57 You Are Playing With Death Itself!
Zachary took the report and opened the folder. Charlotte craned her neck to look at the report as well, and the line of words written in red stated, “Comminuted fracture of the lower leg. Degree of disability: Severe.” The words stung her eyes.She recalled the scene of Coraline pushing Miranda, and she wondered if Coraline had really pushed her that hard.Zachary’s expression turned grimmer as he read the report. Even though Charlotte was standing half a meter away from him, she knew that he was angry right now.“The doctor said I will not be able to get out of bed for at least three months. Even if I do get up after three months, I will have to be in a wheelchair, and it will take at least a year before I can walk. However, I will never be as flexible as before.” Miranda then said in a choking voice as tears began to flow madly on her face, “Tiff already told you who’s the culprit, Zach, so you… you have to do something for me.”Zachary sat by her bedside and used his right han

Charlotte gulped hard in fear.“I’ll give you three seconds. Give me back my phone, and I’ll act like you’re sleepwalking again,” Zachary said as he reached out toward Charlotte with his right hand.Miranda stared in disbelief at Zachary, wondering if her ears had failed her.After all, he was Zachary Connor, a man who had zero tolerance for any act of rebellion.Charlotte had brazenly interrupted him while he had been giving orders to his subordinate, and she had even told his subordinate that he was sleep-talking. If this was not an act of rebellion, then what was? Now, her brother had decided not to take any action against her and had just asked her to return the phone?“I can give you back your phone, but you have to promise me that you won’t send anyone to Coraline.” Charlotte clasped Zachary’s phone as she looked at him dauntlessly, causing a surprised expression to appear on Zachary’s flawless countenance.However, the surprised expression did not stay long on his face. He
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 59 She Hit Me!
“Don’t ever do that again.”Zachary made another call as he said that.Charlotte knew how lucky she was that Zachary had released her. Regardless of how much courage she had, she didn’t dare poke the proverbial dragon. However, the thought that Coraline’s legs could be broken after a single call from Zachary filled Charlotte’s eyes with desolation.“You’re nothing but a clown. Despite your painstaking efforts, the outcome remains the same. Just you wait. You’ll watch that best friend of yours suffer.” Miranda mocked her triumphantly.Charlotte stared at Miranda’s complacent face and recalled every single detail of that incident. She understood what had happened. She rushed to her bedside, gathered all of her strength, and slapped Miranda in the face.Smack!The resounding sound of the slap could be heard from a distance.She had never thought that Charlotte would be crazy enough to slap her in front of Zachary. Miranda stared at Charlotte in a daze, but her lips slowly parted tw
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 60 But I’m Your Sister!
“You’re a man with well-distinguished principles, Mr. Connor. The truth has now come to light. Cora is innocent. I’m sure you wouldn’t harm her now, would you, Mr. Connor?” Charlotte calmly said, heaving a sigh of relief.She had taken a risk when she had hit Miranda.If she managed to rile Miranda up enough that she would lose all her senses, everything would play out just as she had planned. If Miranda had been slightly more clever and had remained completely calm despite being slapped and splashed, not only would Charlotte’s plan have failed, but Zachary would also have doubled the punishment. In the end, she had achieved the desired result…Charlotte had believed that her plan would have a higher chance of success, as she believed that a spoiled brat like Miranda would never be able to endure such an ordeal.“I won’t,” Zachary said.“Mm.” Charlotte nodded in satisfaction. “I believe that you’d like to speak to your sister in private, Mr. Connor. I’ll leave you to it then,” she
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 61 Family And Defense
‘I won’t let Charlotte get away with this!’“Stand up for you?” He spoke through his thin lips. “You tried to strangle me, and you want me to defend you?”Miranda was stunned. “Zach, I’m family. You wouldn’t resent me just because I accidentally hurt you. How could there possibly be any resentment between us?”Zachary raised his brow. “Charlotte is family too. She’s my wife. Why should I hurt her?”Miranda was left speechless.Then, Zachary gently patted Miranda’s shoulders. “Remember this, Mimi—both of you are equally important to me. If you ever get into an argument like this again, I won’t help either of you.”‘What?’‘Is this formidable man that blind? Can’t he see that I’m no match for Charlotte Simmons in a fight? If he refuses to help, that means that he’s going to just stand back and watch that tramp beat me up!’Miranda began reconsidering her life. Zachary had reached the doorway by the time she came back to her senses. Her heart sank. The corners of her lips, which

Charlotte gently raised her dark brows in disdain. “Wouldn’t you be happier if Zachary was cruel to Coraline?”“Carlie, I’m showing concern. Why are you being so sarcastic?” Tiffany bit her bottom lip in grief. Her large eyes began welling up with tears.Usually, gaining sympathy with this method was extremely risky, as one wrong move could make it backfire on her, and the opposing party would see her as a fake and have an irritable reaction. However, Tiffany was different. She had the presence of a delicate, lovely wife with a frail constitution. Gaining sympathy was her forte, and she had received a lot of benefits this way. Her fragile, pitiful act had garnered an overflowing amount of sympathy.Charlotte’s smile deepened with even more cynicism than ever when she saw the look on Tiffany’s face. “Sorry, I’ve got a cold, cruel heart. The poor, wounded bird look doesn’t work on me. In fact, it disgusts me.”She opened the car door and tried to slide into the car.“Tiff has su

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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1424 Can You Still Drive?
“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 CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1423 We Need A Ceremony
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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1422 I’m Not Scared
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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1421 Assassin Versus Assassin
“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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1420 The Wicked Woman
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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1419 Any Last Words?
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
The CEO's Addiction To Love Chapter 1418 Investigation On Jezebel’s Father
“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
