“You stop right there!” Charlotte took a step forward and blocked Lorraine’s way hurriedly. “After all that, where are you keeping my child? Give him back to me!”“Hah...” The corners of Lorraine’s lips trembled. She looked at Charlotte as if she was looking at a mentally ill patient. “In fact, everyone here knows very well deep down that you’re afraid that Zachary will blame you for losing our child. That’s why you made up such a shameless lie to deceive him. But if he believes that Poopoo is your child, then the current situation is that you’ve lost your own child by yourself. No one can blame you anymore...“But Carlie, there’s a limit to all this play, right? Now that you’ve succeeded, it’s time to stop acting already. Why are you still holding me here and continuing with the acting?”“You!” Charlotte never expected that Lorraine was so eloquent when it came to lying. Charlotte was immediately angry, and there was another dense wave of pain in her head.Lorraine took advantage
Charlotte only wanted to locate her own child and get him back, so she raised her arms as if she had surrendered, and her eyes were full of mockery. “You really will struggle on your deathbed until the very last second breath, huh? Zachary has already believed that Poopoo is our child. He has begun to doubt you and will soon discover the whole truth. Why are you still acting so cautiously?”Lorraine suffocated due to the pain. She did not say anything and just searched Charlotte’s body carefully from head to toe. Finally, she took Charlotte’s cell phone out of her pocket angrily and threw it into a pond five meters away.“What!?” Charlotte pouted distressedly.She knew that Lorraine searched her body to make sure that she did not have a recording device on her. However, her cell phone had shut down because it had run out of battery. Nonetheless, Lorraine still threw it into the water...Lorraine did this purely to retaliate against her.However, she still could not fall out with L
“Zachary’s wine was spiked that night. Since you had come up with that kind of underhanded way to trick him, even if he didn’t react to you, he should have a reaction after taking that kind of wine. You could have just sent yourself to his bed. Why go through all the trouble of dragging me into it?”“Do you think I hadn’t thought about it? If I could really do that, why would I create so much unnecessary trouble for myself? If I could do that, I would not be in such a difficult position now!”Lorraine smiled bitterly, and tears were brimming in her eyes.“In the past, Zach and I had also tried to have sex through this unnatural way, but ironically, even if he had consumed such a hard liquor, even if he’s not in a sober state, the moment he touched me or smelt my breath, he would feel nauseous and push me down the bed. He would rather put it through that torture than let me go near him!“Hah! I just can’t figure it out. Is it God’s intention to torture me? I love him so much. I just
Charlotte’s heart skipped a beat, and traces of apprehension could be seen in her clear eyes.“I heard from the nanny working in your house that you love Poopoo a lot as well, not to mention that he’s Zachary’s kid! There’s no way you would harm him!”“Is that so?”Lorraine lifted her pretty face.“But Charlotte, don’t forget... Although I like Poopoo, he’s far less important to me than Zach. I’m pretty sure you know me very well. Since you discovered the truth, how can I still keep him as living evidence in this world?”Charlotte’s body shook.“You…”She opened her mouth with difficulty, and every word that escaped her mouth seemed to sap her energy away. “What… did you… do to him?”“Hah... Charlotte, it seems to me that although you’ve spent only a few days with Poopoo, you’ve grown very attached to him. Your face became even paler than white paper when you heard about his death.”With resentful eyes and a twisted smile, Lorraine brought her lips to Charlotte's ear as she
Poopoo…He was so cute, so innocent. She would give everything she had in exchange for another day with him, but she would never see him again… Even if she perished with Lorraine, she had to avenge him.“You let go of Lory!“A deep growl erupted like a thunderbolt behind Charlotte’s back.Then, a powerful hand grabbed Charlotte’s arm and pulled her away from Lorraine.She was sent stumbling two steps back by that force before she sat on the floor with a thud.“Are you okay, Lory?” The tall, muscular man hurriedly helped Lorraine to her feet and rubbed her neck gently with his right hand.Charlotte looked at the man’s handsome face in a daze.Zachary!It was him!It was reasonable, and he had every right to pull her away in a panic while she was on the verge of strangling Lorraine to death. It was not a big deal at all…“Zach… Is that you?”After Lorraine came around to her senses, her eyes, which had turned bloodshot because of the suffocation, filled with tears when she
Charlotte brought her brows together in a fierce scowl.“You…”Before she could finish her sentence, Lorraine had slapped Charlotte’s face once.The slap was fueled by Lorraine’s resentment. It was heavy, and for a moment, Charlotte could see stars in her eyes and could hear a buzzing sound in her ears.“Lory!”Jebediah had not expected Lorraine to really slap Charlotte. Shocked, he hastily warned her.“Have you forgotten what Zachary did to you to protect her? It's enough for you to scare her. Why did you really have to slap her?”“I remember! I remember! I'll never forget it for the rest of my life!”When she thought of how unfair Zachary had been to her in order to protect Charlotte, instead of calming down, the anger in Lorraine’s heart burned even stronger, and she gave Charlotte another slap.‘Slap!’It was an even harder slap than the first one.‘Slap!’Another slap.She did not give Charlotte a chance to take a breather.She had had enough of this sl*t, who had ta
Lorraine felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.At that moment, the burst of sharp pain coming from a certain area of her heart was 100 times more intense than being flung on a tree by Zachary.It was not because Zachary had flung her hard onto a tree to save Charlotte or because he had questioned her in such an icy tone either. It was because of his hateful gaze!She used to be the woman he loved and cared about the most in the past, but right now, he looked at her as if she was a viper that had bitten his beloved!Suddenly, all the fear left her. Lorraine did not feel scared anymore as Zachary stared at her. She lifted her face defiantly, raised her right hand, which was as fair as snow, and opened her hand.“Five times! I remember clearly. I slapped your beloved woman five times… There are still four more slaps to go, and I will be done.”Zachary’s gaze turned colder. The muscles in his right arm, which was holding Charlotte, grew tense. “You can save those slaps for yo
“Ah!”A loud, sharp scream pierced the sky.That scream did not come from Charlotte, but from Lorraine.Just as Lorraine had been about to smash the rock into Charlotte’s face, Zachary had firmly driven his fist into the spot between her brows.Lorraine crumpled onto the ground after releasing that scream.“Lory!”Jebediah immediately crawled to his feet, ignoring all risks and scooping Lorraine into his arms when he saw that her eyes were tightly shut and she could be either dead or alive. He rushed to the emergency room.However, he had just taken a few steps when Zachary grabbed his arm from behind. “I’m not done with you yet.”Jebediah was forced to stop in his tracks. His expression was completely distorted from excessive disbelief.“Look at what you’ve done to Lory. It’s bad enough that you only care about your wonderful wife and refuse to help her, yet you’re still trying to hold me back to deal with our issues at a time like this? Are you even human?”Zachary quietl
