last update Last Updated: 2021-06-17 19:10:01
Just as Charlotte was about to get up, she received a call from Rufus. She hurriedly answered, “Rufus, I was just about to call you. You’re hateful, preposterous, and outrageous!”

“Tsk, tsk tsk…”

Rufus’s purple eyes flashed bewitchingly on the other end of the line.

“Aw… Why is the Simmons’ princess so angry? Have you been fighting with your husband?”

“You…”

Charlotte trembled all over. Then, she curled her lips exasperatedly.

“Sure, you horrible boy. You’ve gotten away with it this time, but let’s talk business. You’ve seen the Dragon Blood Ring, so you’d better help me, or I’ll really destroy it.”

“Oh, really?”

Rufus leisurely puffed on a cigar as he lay in his bathtub.

“I think you’re just trying to scare me because the Dragon Blood Ring is the only leverage you have to threaten me. If you destroy it, you can forget about ever asking for my help to expose Lorraine. Then, you’ll just have to wait an eternity. Lorraine is a goddess in jealous old Zachary’s eyes and will alwa

    Bryson stood outside the studio, staring at the street as people walked by. He couldn’t help being reminded of how Charlotte had trolled him into streaking naked along this very street. His handsome face blushed.“Hah! Wait! Has my lack of sleep caused me to hear things? Did someone say that I owed him? Bryson, do you have a screw loose? Is that why you think that I owe you?”Charlotte was overcome with rage. She could no longer control the steering wheel with one hand, so she had to stop her car by the side of the road.Bryson, on the other hand, was perfectly calm on the other end of the line. His face was warm as spring water.“Don’t forget that I helped you take care of Igor when you shot his hands and feet. Then, after that assassin killed him in my home, I helped you clean up after you left. Otherwise, you would’ve been taken to the police station for questioning by now.”Charlotte would have forgotten the entire incident if Bryson hadn’t mentioned it.‘Yes! I wasn’t respon

    “I’ve conducted a thorough investigation. Jebediah would never endorse Tiffany for nothing. He’s been using Tiffany to make more money.”Bryson’s words pulled Charlotte back to reality. Then, she refocused. “Tiffany was in dire straits. What use could she possibly be to Jebediah? How is Jebediah using her to… make profit?” Bryson smirked. “Jebediah has put her body and dignity up for sale to gain the favor of his important clients.”In other words, Jebediah was prostituting Tiffany!Charlotte widened her eyes in shock at first. Then, she shook her head. “That’s not possible! Tiffany’s always dreamt of becoming a shining star. She would never sully her own name and agree to Jebediah’s terms. Your investigation must not have been thorough enough!”Tiffany wanted to be a pure, unspoiled angel sought after by millions.Therefore, when she had been with Bryson, she had always been careful when sleeping around with other men despite her inability to keep herself under control. She had

    She shook Bryson off once she had said her piece and headed toward her parked car.Bryson entered a daze as he stared at the slight curve at the corners of her lips and the smile in her eyes.He was finally jolted back to his senses when she moved her profile away from view.“Heh…”He laughed. His face was filled with disdain, and his eyes were cold.“The person you promised is Zachary. Just say it. There’s no need to hide!”Charlotte paused in her tracks, looking surprised. “H-How… did you know that?” Her voice contained an obvious tinge of fear.There were plenty of people in the streets, but she was the only person that existed in Bryson’s eyes. “From the moment you saw me, your eyes and tone of voice were filled with disdain, but when you mentioned the person you made that promise to, your eyes, expression, and tone instantly brightened with warmth. Even the tips of your brows smiled. That’s because you were thinking of the man you love—Zachary!”Charlotte blushed furious

    It took Charlotte quite a while to find her voice again.“Why is everyone in this social circle so gossipy? Long story short, the things you heard about me and Zachary are not true, alright? I don’t want to talk about it anymore!”After saying that, she turned around and continued to walk. However, before she could take a step forward, Bryson overtook her and grabbed her shoulders with his two big, powerful hands. “Carlie, you can’t go.”Charlotte frowned.“Bryson, you never learn, do you? Zachary has warned you more than once that he’s going to chop off your hands if he ever sees you touching me again. Do you really want to lose your hands so much?”“I don’t care!” Bryson shouted back. His handsome face was contorted, and his beautiful eyes, which seemed to contain an entire starry sky, were filled with nothing but determination. “I’ve thought of getting other people to help me, but none of them could cooperate with me as seamlessly as you in this case. Besides, it’s differen

    Charlotte got into the car as well.Before Bryson started the engine, she took the Dragon Blood Ring out and carefully put it back into the safe box.She had no other choice but to put the secret about the Dragon Blood Ring on hold for the time being since she was going to help Bryson.She just hoped that after helping Bryson to get his evidence, she still had the chance to meet up with the appraiser and ask him about the Dragon Blood Ring’s secret before Rufus left Rothesay. At Golden Louvre Palace, Villa No.6… There were six custodians taking turns to patrol in the front gate. The wall around the courtyard was about five meters tall, and a thick layer of electric fence was above the wall. Not even a fly could go near the perimeter. However, it was not a difficult task for Charlotte and Bryson to climb over the wall. This was because they had climbed over a wall like this multiple times in the past. As such, they had accumulated a lot of experience. What was more challengin

    The three men looked at each other silently.After a few seconds, all of them broke into a great fit of laughter in unison, causing Tiffany to stamp her feet in frustration. “You guys are so boring. What’s so funny? Mr. Valentine asked me to come here, so I came. Since no one admits to being his client, it’s not my fault. Goodbye!”She turned around and was ready to leave.The balding old man among the three men asked in a gloomy voice, “But Ms. Miller, how do you expect us to give you an answer since you’ve asked the wrong question?”Tiffany’s face went blank. “What are you talking about?” The old man did not say anything.Another tall and lanky man squinted his eyes, scanning her from head to toe with an evil grin dancing on his lips.“You asked which one of us is the client Jebediah asked you to serve. But how are we supposed to answer your question when all three of us are the clients Jebediah asked you to serve?”The tip of Tiffany’s finger trembled.Charlotte, who was s

    Charlotte’s eyes were filled with shock.“Aren’t you here to record some evidence on her?”“Yeah. What I want is evidence, not a disgusting, dirty movie.”The longer Bryson looked at the unbearable scene that was happening down there, the more he wanted to rush downstairs and strangle Tiffany to death. God knew how much he had to endure for the past ten minutes while he was recording the scene.However, it was all worth it as these ten minutes were more than enough to ruin Tiffany’s reputation.Tiffany’s licentiousness had exceeded his imagination!At present, all he needed to do was post this video on the Internet, and then Tiffany’s “pristine girl” image would crumble into pieces.That being said, now was not the right time to post the video. The higher she climbed, the more painful her fall would be when he destroyed her! Therefore, he wanted to wait until Jebediah made Tiffany into a famous superstar before sending this video out. “Alright, let’s go,” Charlotte said as she

    A bolt of fear shot through Charlotte, and her body began to tremble when she saw the group of men. Then, she turned her head and looked fearfully at the man standing in front of her. He had a flawlessly handsome face, and there was no emotion dominating his face.“Zachary, please don’t get mad and listen to my explanation first! Although I helped Bryson to record Tiffany and other men, I didn’t see anything. My eyes were closed the whole time, and I...”“Hah!” The man scoffed, cutting Charlotte short. “This is ridiculous. You sleep with Zach on the same bed every single night, and yet you still couldn’t recognize him, my dear niece-in-law?”The corner of Charlotte’s lips twitched. In the next second, her eyes were filled with despair.The situation would be better if he was Zachary. After all, Zachary would, at most, ask why she did not keep her promise. All she needed to do was explain the whole thing to him, and she would be fine.However, things were different now. The man

    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.

    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
