‘Although Bryson repeatedly told me not to seek revenge against Tiffany, I can’t let Michael and Bryson’s death go to waste. I have to expose what Tiffany has done...‘Before Tiffany receives the retribution she deserves, I won’t let her live her life in peace. I’ll make her suffer every day from now onward!’Charlotte stood up and turned around only to find that Zachary was standing not far away from the scene. Her fingers trembled. “When did you... Since when did you come?”“I’ve always been here.” Zachary’s voice sounded rather indifferent.Charlotte seemed to have heard a clap of thunder. “So, did you see all the things that I just did to Tiffany?”Zachary’s face was as cold as a glacier. “Yes.”Charlotte did not utter a single word, trying her best to keep herself somewhat calm. “I know that what I’ve done is irrational, and I also know that you must really want to blame me at this moment. You can reprimand me if you want to do so. You can even hit me if you feel like doing
Charlotte felt a hint of warmth on her skin.Zachary squeezed her chin with his thumb and index finger and lifted her tiny face a little bit. His bright and shining eyes were extremely captivating. “Are you coming home with me?”Charlotte seemed to have been enchanted by him. She nodded in a daze and followed Zachary as he left.Lucas, who had been standing at the door, did not follow Zachary and Charlotte but walked up to Tiffany calmly, “I said, Ms. Lil’ B*tch, are you dead yet?”Tiffany opened her lips in pain. “No...”Lucas did not even bother to look straight at her. “So, why don’t you climb back into your car by yourself?”“I... Why should I climb back into my car? What do you want to do to me!?” Tiffany was trembling in anxiety as she stared at Lucas defensively.“Bah! Don’t worry. We’re not as vicious as you are. We won’t kill people that casually. I’m here to help Mrs. Connor send you to the hospital.”Lucas got into Tiffany’s car after saying so.Tiffany looked at hi
A hint of aggrieve appeared on Jebediah’s icy eyes. “Everything I said is the truth. I didn’t anticipate that kind of thing happening yesterday. I’m truly sorry about his unexpected death.”“Really?”Charlotte’s eyes were filled with sadness when she remembered the things Bryson had said.“I heard that you have a lot of evidence against Tiffany. If you really feel sorry for Bryson, you should take the initiative to use this evidence to expose Tiffany and help me to avenge Bryson! Instead of being vain and just paying lip service to apologies that don’t make any sense.”“This is the reason I came for you.” Jebediah’s voice rang out.Charlotte was delighted.“You want to expose Tiffany too?”“I have the idea, but it’s up to you to decide whether I will put the idea into practice.” Jebediah, who was as unworldly handsome as Zachary, had deep, swirling ice eyes.Charlotte was stunned.Jebediah flicked the cigarette butt into the river. He turned his head to look at Zachary in the
Jebediah froze.Charlotte was even more certain of her deduction, so she raised her eyebrows defiantly.“Go back and tell Lorraine to perish the thought.”She would rely on her own ability to avenge Bryson.In the worst-case scenario, she would be bitten to death by Tiffany, that viper, just like Bryson. She would rather go down in glory than make a deal with Lorraine against her conscience!Jebediah’s thoughts wavered.He was certain that Charlotte was a sl*t that was very skilled in manipulating other people’s emotions.However, he did not know why but sometimes, when he saw this frail yet stubborn and unyielding woman, he could feel his heart rippling as if a stone was thrown into his heart.Sometimes, he even felt that this woman had some sparks that Lorraine lacked.‘D*mn it! Why would I think like this?’Zachary had become this woman’s puppet. Could it be that he was going to follow in Zachary’s footsteps?“Then there’s nothing more to discuss between us!” Jebediah f
Charlotte picked up a stone and threw it toward Jebediah. Then, she curled her lips into a snicker and said, “Jebediah, you’re going to die an awful death!”By the time Jebediah came out of the river, Charlotte had already returned to the garden. Zachary was currently standing at the spot where she stood before.Jebediah cast Zachary a glance and attempted to leave.“Hold on a second!” Zachary’s frosty and magnetic voice erupted out of a sudden.“You still owe me an explanation.”“I owe you an explanation?” Jebediah asked knowingly.“I don’t know what you are talking about. You go your way, and I’ll go mine. Since when do I have to explain my business to you?” After that, he resumed walking. Suddenly, a black silhouette whizzed past him. In the next second, Zachary stood in front of him, blocking his way like an iceberg.Even though both of them looked alike, Zachary’s aura was far stronger than his. Plus, Zachary’s face was extremely dark, and even Jebediah, “the second dem
“Zachary, you are a smart person who can see things in their true color. At this point, it will only make me look like a fool in front of you if I keep covering up. Well, that’s right. Just like what you think, the reason I want to make Tiffany famous is that I want to use her as a revenge tool against Charlotte.”Jebediah admitted it readily.Since Zachary had begun to suspect him, if he refused to admit it, not only would it not bring any benefit to him, but it would also make him look like a laughingstock in front of Zachary.“Why?” Zachary stood regally upright. His icy eyes were deep, as if they could swallow everything into them. A sarcastic grin hopped onto Jebediah’s lips.“I’m sure you know why.”Zachary’s shapely brows were faintly furrowed, and a name nearly tumbled out of his lips.However, he swallowed the name that lingered on the tip of his tongue back to his stomach pit and gazed nonchalantly toward Jebediah’s car.“It’s because of her…”Jebediah was looking a
Charlotte Simmons!All of this was caused by that sl*t!Jebediah only felt as if every ounce of his energy had been sapped away. He walked staggeringly into his car and slumped onto the seat, his body wet and his mind drained.“See! This is Zachary. He can be heartless to me for Charlotte’s sake, and now, when it’s your turn, he doesn’t even recognize you as his own uncle.” A clear voice rang out from his right side.Jebediah glanced at Lorraine, and his heart felt as if it was being clutched by a large invisible hand. His lips quivered, but he was not able to make any sound.“Why have you become like this? Zachary…”Lorraine gazed greedily at Zachary in the distance through the car window. She had been staying in the car. The reason she had not gotten out of the car was not that she did not want to see him. It was just that she did not want him to see her in her current situation. “Now you realize how stupid you are already, Jebediah? How good an opportunity did you miss? If y
Charlotte realized that Zachary had fallen fast asleep on the couch once he sat down as soon as they had arrived home. The phone in his pocket vibrated continuously but to no avail. He would not wake up.Charlotte was about to wake him up to answer the phone.The maid, Janet Plain, quickly stopped her. “Madam, Mr. Connor hasn’t slept in more than 30 hours. Let him rest!”“Huh?” Charlotte was taken aback.“Didn’t he come home with me last night? Hasn’t he slept at all?”Janet glanced at Zachary, and her heart ached for him. “Sigh! Madam, you have no idea, do you? Mr. Connor did come home with you last night, but he had been standing outside your door after you went back to your room. He stood guard the entire night.”Charlotte was even more confused.She remembered that Zachary had been standing right outside when she pushed the door open this morning.That explained why he looked a little haggard—he had been standing outside all night.“But…”Charlotte has no idea how she man
