Garrison knew that it was just his wishful thinking. In the past, when Charlotte had still been single, she had always been ignoring him and alienating him deliberately. Ever since Charlotte had gotten married to Zachary, it was even more impossible for her to provide him with such an opportunity.However, Charlotte had taken the initiative to meet him today and wanted to get a room with him even though she was already someone else’s wife! Although his reason reminded him not to condone her to make mistakes, his ability to refuse seemed to have been sealed away. As such, he could not tell her “no” the moment she made this request.‘Charlotte! My one and only goddess, my unattainable love!‘For more than six years, I’ve come to wait on the Rainbow Bridge every day, and I have to wait for ten years in order to realize my dream to marry her! How can I reject her!’About 15 minutes later, Charlotte took Garrison’s arm and entered a hotel suite with him.After more than an hour, she to
Charlotte’s heart seemed to have been pricked by a needle, Her body trembled slightly, but no trace of emotion could be seen on her face. “Brat, haven’t I made myself clear? Leave me alone. It’s none of your business.”Charlotte flung Rufus’s hand away and continued walking.Rufus stared at her, his purple eyes filled with disappointment.“Oh yeah...” Charlotte, who recalled something all of a sudden, slightly turned her head. “I heard from Cora that Yanis Xander has been asking her about you more than once ever since she learned that you’ve returned to Rothesay. I think she must regret being so cruel to you five years ago. Since you’ve come back anyway, there’s nothing to lose if you were to meet her once before you leave.”A hint of pain flashed across Rufus’s disappointed eyes, but he raised his eyebrows frivolously in the next second. “Don’t worry about it. Take care of your own business first.”Charlotte shook her head, opened the door, and got into the car.“You might not k
Zachary’s gloomy eyes froze slightly while his voice sounded indifferent and clear. “I also heard that you went to a hotel with him and left with him about an hour later. “Charlotte deliberately turned her gaze to the side and lifted her face intentionally. “Yeah.”Zachary may be as majestic as a king, but the indifference on his well-defined face started crumbling. “Do explain to me, both of you...”Zachary’s voice froze abruptly as if a blizzard had just hit the room.That was because he saw the hickeys on Charlotte’s neck.In the past, he would leave such a masterpiece on Charlotte’s neck every time he got it on with her. He could not help but feel a burst of wicked satisfaction deep down every time he saw his masterpiece after that...However, his cold heart seemed to be shattered into pieces after seeing such trails at this moment.In front of him, there seemed to be images of Garrison’s lips dancing all over her skin, lighting it on fire.As a person who always kept his
“Is this the reason behind your affair with Garrison?” Zachary, who looked as regal as a king, was still able to maintain his last bit of dignity even under such circumstances.Charlotte had burned all the bridges behind her, so she could only nod forcefully and utter her pre-arranged lines ruthlessly. “Yes! I love him, and I can’t help but want to be with him. This isn’t my first time dating him behind your back already.”Zachary’s thick and dark brows were restrained.He only felt that Charlotte seemed to have mercilessly torn his heart into two halves. Even though he was tough and strong, all the suffering that he was currently experiencing felt so gut-wrenching that he could not make a sound for a long time.After calming down for a few seconds, he unconcernedly tried his best to open his mouth. “In this case, I’ll deprive the both of you of any opportunity to do so again!”‘What? I’ve already spoken to this extent, so shouldn’t he think that I’m a filthy woman and chase me ou
His hand trembled as he tightened his grip, causing her to cry out in agony.“Ugh…”Charlotte could feel Zachary’s hand trembling even more than ever. Then, he stopped strangling her and forced his hand away, slowly releasing his grip.“Why… didn’t you just kill me?” She stared at him in shock.She looked at him as he stood in front of her.His throat quivered, and his eyes were bloodshot. Even his breath seemed as hot as flames. However, he simply stared at her, with pain in his eyes, unable to bring himself to hurt her…Zachary’s face was grim. His thin lips and white teeth spoke in an icy tone. “I once promised myself that I would be a doting husband to my wife for the rest of my life. That I would never blame you, no matter your mistakes. I would only blame myself for failing to win your heart.”He turned around, casting her a seemingly indifferent glance, and turned to leave again.However, at that moment, his indifferent facade could not conceal the disappointment in his
However, she couldn’t tell him at all.Zachary was now poisoned. He would only survive for 14 days if Lorraine did not give him the antidote!The more she loved him, the more she should save him.Thus, she wiped off her tears and forced a smile on the corners of her face, despite how much pain her heart was in. “Wow, your love is really insignificant. You remind me of my dad. You’re just like him, loving women who don’t care about you at all, to the point of limitlessness.”She could see Zachary’s throat quiver. His fingers trembled.She knew that he was in pain. However, she had to be a cruel murderer, using words that would cut him like a vicious knife despite knowing how hurt he was, stabbing his heart over and over again.“Well, Zachary, since you’re in love with me, it makes things easier. I was forced to marry you once, to save my father, and was forced to hurt Garrison. He and I were so in love, yet we were forced to remain secret lovers, dating once or twice and checking
She had no idea which outcome Zachary intended to fulfill…Was he going to destroy her family?Or was he going to fulfill her “happiness”?However, she was too afraid to ask!Everything she had done was to push his feelings for her into an abyss, to burn them into nothingness.Now, as her goal was close to fruition, she had lost the courage to face the consequences…“I’ll see you in court tomorrow, 09:00 a.m. Bring all relevant documents.”Zachary forced himself to his feet as he said this and shakily made his way to this bedroom.Charlotte, who had been trying her best to remain calm, burst into tears once again.“Does that mean you’re agreeing to the divorce?”Zachary stiffened. He slammed the door shut and did not turn around again.“Get out!”Charlotte stared at the trembling door. She went into a slight daze before suddenly feeling a wave of agony as if needles were piercing through her heart. She nearly lost control and spat out blood like Zachary.Lucas’s heart was
“You took your important possessions when you decided to divorce Second Master and left. This time, are you that eager to meet with Garrison? That you don’t even want your prized possessions?”Charlotte only realized that Lucas had already arrived behind her when she heard his voice.“I don’t want them anymore!”She turned around. Even though she had just walked out the Divine Sanctuary District’s gates not too long ago, the blurry view of the villa in the midst of the pouring rain made it seem out of reach.“Zachary probably hates me now. He can throw or burn my things if he likes. Consider them a means for him to release his anger.”Lucas scoffed. “How very considerate of you!”Charlotte hung her head guiltily. “Have you seen him since he’s locked himself in the room? Is he alright?”“Hah, is he alright? Are you actually concerned for his well-being? Or are you just asking a random question?” Lucas’s smile filled with even more disdain.Charlotte was silenced.‘Yes! It’s bad
