Lucas talked as he walked toward Zachary.

"Second Master, you believe that the thing between you and that girl happened in the hotel because you woke up at the hotel the next morning. However, after my comprehensive investigation, I found that this is not the case at all. It seems that someone moved you to the hotel after you wrapped up with the girl somewhere else.”

After Zachary heard Lucas’ report, a hint of surprise flashed across his usually calm and collected eyes.

“Apparently, it was a well-planned conspiracy. The mastermind behind it did not want you to find the girl. The surveillance videos in the hotel that night were erased, so there’s no way we can find out who sent you to the hotel for the time being. However, one thing we can be sure of is that the piece of emerald locket you clutched in your hand was indeed ripped from the girl.” Lucas continued to report his findings as Zachary’s expression turned even grimmer with every passing second.

    Michael Harper was the biological brother of Bryson Harper. Even though people always said Michael was the spitting image of his brother, his ability was far more lackluster compared to his brother’s. Bryson came from a humble background, yet he was a multimillionaire right now, unlike Michael, whose every business attempt had failed. Tiffany had not imagined in her wildest dreams that he, the loser she’d snickered at, would find out everything she had done. “What? Why aren’t you saying something? Is it because I have revealed all your dirty tricks, so you have nothing to say now?” Michael grabbed Tiffany’s slender arm as he snarled, “You evil, dirty little b*tch! Come with me now. You’re going to confess everything you did to my brother!” Then, he began dragging Tiffany toward the entrance.“Let go of me, Michael!“Let go of me now!“If you don’t let go of me right now, I’ll call your brother and tell him that you’re raping me!” Michael suddenly stopped in his tracks.

    For a moment, Zachary felt as if there was an invisible hand clutching at his heart. He threw away the book in his hand without thinking twice and went forward to help her up from the floor.However, Charlotte had already gotten up by herself the moment Zachary rushed to her side. Her eyes remained shut as she resumed to walk mechanically on the desk like a zombie.A surprised expression dawned on Zachary’s handsome face. Before he could come around to his senses, he saw something that shook him to the core. Charlotte had already arrived at the edge of the desk, and she would fall flat on the floor should she take one more step.Zachary lost his usual calmness and shouted, “Watch out!” The good thing was that his leg was long. It took him only one large stride, and he was already in front of Charlotte, causing her to fall straight into his embrace.“What do you think you’re doing, woman?” Zachary asked, cupping her chin and wrapping his right arm around her tiny waist. When he saw

    Charlotte felt she needed to give the whole thing some thought.She had sleepwalked out of her bedroom just now, while at the same time, Zachary should have also sleepwalked out of his bedroom. Both of them must have met each other in the living room, and then out of an unknown reason, he kissed her…If she had not experienced it herself, Charlotte would never believe such a coincidence actually existed in the world.“Second Uncle! Carlie!”A series of flustered footfalls erupted from the staircase as a voice rang out. Several minutes later, the door was barged open, and Zenios rushed to Charlotte’s side like a bolt of thunder.“It’s great that you’re awake, Carlie. You’ve always been a sleepyhead, and I was wondering on the way if I would disturb your sleep.”Charlotte stretched her body as she replied, “Well, I was jerked awake from my dream by accident as well. By the way, are you not afraid of getting punished by Zachary for barging into his house this early in the morning?”

    Many years ago, Charlotte’s mother had been caught having an affair with the butler of the Simmons. Charlotte’s father had driven her mother straight out of the house and the family while they had been arguing about the matter. Lorraine was the child of Charlotte’s mother and the butler.That was the shame of the family.Therefore, although Charlotte had known about Lorraine’s existence, she had never contacted her. She had seen pictures of Lorraine occasionally a few years ago but never knew what kind of life Lorraine led and who she had been with.Lorraine—she used to be Zachary’s girlfriend!Zachary had rescued her family and proposed to her just because she was Lorraine’s elder sister all this time. Zachary was only using her as a tool to piss Lorraine off.What was wrong with her?She knew that Zachary would never come to her for no reason. She had also prepared herself mentally before this, and no matter what Zachary’s purpose was, she would accept it calmly.However, why

    “Second Uncle, why aren’t you speaking? Are you acquiescing in it? You’ll definitely agree to my request, right?” The attractive and charming man had glimmering tears in his captivating blue eyes.The biggest dream of Zenios’s life was to be able to grow old together with Charlotte. Now, as long as Zachary nodded, his dream would come true instantly.At that moment, Zenios felt that he was the happiest person in the world.However, there was no response. Zachary was staring at Charlotte this whole time while Charlotte looked back at him.She could not tell why she was currently nervous and torn like never before. It felt like she had returned to the moment when she had been waiting for her PSAT results.She wanted to be there to witness it with her own eyes when Zachary answered the question, but she was so afraid of getting the answer that she did not want to hear...“Since you think this is between you and her, then we’ll let her make the decision.” An Indifferent tone escaped

    “Zenios, I’m afraid that I’ll have to disappoint you.” Charlotte said apologetically and added, “I won’t divorce Zachary. You should give up.”When she gave him the truth, Charlotte clearly saw Zenios’s tall figure swaying.At the same time, a trace of warmth flashed across Zachary’s freezing cold eyes.“Carlie! Do you know what you’re talking about? I’m saving you from Second Uncle’s claws! Do you know that all the entanglements between you and him will be over as long as you say yes now?” Zenios’s expression was full of disbelief.Charlotte’s lips twitched slightly. “I understand and appreciate your intentions, and I know what I’m saying, but I’ve decided. You should leave.”Zenios felt like he was struck by lightning. “Carlie, are you even thinking straight!? How can you say such a silly thing? Second Uncle must have done something behind the scene. After he learned about our relationship yesterday, he was afraid that I would take you away from him, so he’s threatened you, that

    This was also the first time Zenios heard Zachary yelling at him in more than 20 years!Zachary’s roar seemed to be even more earth-shaking than a catastrophic tsunami. It was so horrifying that even Zenios felt a sudden weakness in his legs and almost collapsed on the ground.Zachary, with his long, strong legs, took a big stride to Charlotte’s side, wrapped his right arm around her slim waist, grabbed her out of Zenios’ arms, and embraced her.“Second Uncle, what do you think you’re doing?” Upon seeing that his beloved woman was snatched away, Zenios could no longer care about being afraid. His gaze looked like laser beams, and his eyebrows were creased as he confronted Zachary. “I’m still negotiating with Carlie. She hasn’t made the final decision. How can you interrupt us?”The man that usually treated his nephew extremely gently looked at him exceptionally coldly this time around.“Wake up! My wife has already made a clear decision. However, someone as stubborn as a mule has

    Charlotte looked at Zenios silently while holding her tears in.As for Zachary, although he did not want to see Zenios in such a state, he was relieved at this moment. Upon seeing that Zenios had let go of Charlotte, his voice was no longer stern and cold. “I told you yesterday that if there’s something that’s destined to not belong to you, just let it go. It’s better for everyone that way.”Zenios stopped abruptly. “Since when did I say that I was going to let go?”Zachary’s face dimmed again instantly, while Charlotte was also obviously stunned.Zenios turned his head and raised his thick, dark eyebrows. “Carlie is the only person that I’ve ever loved. I can no longer allow another woman to walk into my heart after falling in love with her. So as long as I’m still alive, I’ll never let her go.”Charlotte was moved and astonished.She had been unaware that Zenios had been in love with her a long time now, let alone that he loved her so deeply.What shocked her even more was tha

    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

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
