Zachary put Charlotte in the car.Due to his past experience getting ambushed by his opponent, to prevent a similar incident from happening again, Daniel had prepared some medicine for him to carry around.Zachary took the medicine out of his pocket.When his finger grazed past the wound on Charlotte’s lips, she let out a soft moan of pain. Zachary felt as if someone had stabbed his heart, and pain could be seen overflowing in his icy eyes.Even though he knew she could not hear anything in her current state, Zachary still pressed his lips on her ear and whispered, “Come on, be a good girl and open your mouth.”Strangely enough, the moment Zachary whispered this sentence into her ear, Charlotte instinctively opened her tightly-locked mouth.Zachary seized this chance and poured the medicine into her mouth. He only felt relieved after she swallowed it down.Right now, Charlotte’s face was unrecognizable due to the caked blood and bruises on it.Slowly and carefully, Zachary used a steri
This was the last straw.Something in Zachary snapped, and a voice was shouting at him to kiss her. He lightly lifted Charlotte’s face and planted his thin lips on her forehead.“You are a jerk!” Charlotte shouted, causing Zachary to move back with a start.A second later, Charlotte added, “You ungrateful son of a b*tch! I hope you die a million deaths… How could you betray me?“Bryson, I was so good to you… I loved you so much. I gave you everything I had. Why? Why… Why… Sob… Sob…” Charlotte cried out loud as big tears started to drop from the corners of her eyes.Upon seeing her tears, Zachary felt as if someone had carved a hole in his heart. It was empty, bottomless, and nothing could fill it up.He had met Charlotte at the lowest point of her life. No matter how many grievances she had to endure and what kind of hardships she had to experience, Charlotte would always raise her eyebrows and lift her lips proudly, putting all the pain into a smile.Zachary thought a headstrong and d
Zachary’s expression dimmed. “Zenios, you better watch your words.”“What’s the matter? You did such a thing, but you won’t allow me to talk about it?!”When he looked at Charlotte lying on the car seat and recalled the sight of Zachary hugging and kissing her, intense jealousy started burning within Zenios and he snapped out of control.“I clearly saw you secretly kissing Carlie while she was unconscious because of the drug. If I had arrived later, you would’ve done something perverted to her.”Zachary’s tightly-furrowed eyebrows relaxed slightly. Sure enough, he could not blame Zenios for losing his head.The sight of him and Charlotte hugging and kissing each other could easily cause a misunderstanding. Besides, he really had done this to Charlotte when she was unconscious, so Zenios had not wronged him...“I admit everything that I’ve done.” Zachary’s expression was indifferent, and his voice was cold.“However, you said that I’m a pervert, and that I won’t admit. Zenios, I’
“If you still won’t let go of her, I’ll take it personally!” Zachary’s voice was cold, and his gaze was terrifying. He looked like a tiger protecting its cub.Zenios placed Charlotte back onto the car seat immediately. As soon as he placed her down, Zachary grabbed his arm and dragged him out of the car abruptly.Zachary’s strength was so immense that Zenios lost his balance and fell butt-first under the London planes beside the driveway. He then gasped and rubbed his hurting arm.“Second Uncle, that was really cruel. Even though Carlie hasn’t chosen me, she is still our child’s mother. What’s wrong with me caring about her?”“I don’t mind anyone caring about her, but I’ll never allow any man except me to care about her excessively, and you’re no exception.” Zachary’s eyes were gloomy and freezing cold.“Zenios, brand what just happened into your brain because this is the last time it happens. If I see another attempt, don’t blame me for not treating you as my nephew.”The corner
As he watched Zenios go further and further away from them, Zachary was still very tense.He had always been a very cold and arrogant man deep down, and he had never been afraid of anyone since he was a kid. At that moment, however, he was inexplicably afraid that Zenios would succeed in snatching Charlotte away from him.Zenios was not inferior to him regardless of his appearance, body figure, or excellence. Besides, Zenios knew Charlotte more than three years earlier than him, and they even had a child now...“Second Master, that useless piece of sh*t, Victor Rutherford, is just another good-for-nothing. I only disclosed what I was going to do to torture him, and he already peed in his trousers before I even did any of those things that I mentioned. He even passed out after that. Let’s just wait for him to wake up, and we’ll see what I can do to make him feel like he’d rather die. I’ll make him regret what he’s done to Mrs. Simmons.” Lucas walked toward Zachary while talking.Zac
Charlotte jumped out of bed, ran into the living room regardless of the servant’s obstruction, looked in the floor-to-ceiling mirror, and almost stunned herself.‘Oh my God!’At present, her face looked like a ripened tomato due to the wounds. She could not even remember her original appearance at all.‘Okay! Don’t panic... Don’t panic! The doctor said that it’d recover and get back to how it was before. It’s just a matter of time!’Charlotte had really thought she was going to die due to Victor’s beating. Now that she had survived the beating, what else could she hope for?“Second master is truly brilliant. He said that milady should have woken up now and ordered me to come and get you. Sure enough, you’ve woken up exactly at this time, not even a minute later.” The voice of a young teenager came from the door.Charlotte looked away from the mirror anxiously. “Zachary... Why would he get you to come and get me...” She was very afraid that Zachary would see her awful look all of
Charlotte took a closer look.‘Aren’t these girls the very same ones who dropped by my art studio to buy an art piece?’“Second Master has obtained surveillance footage from the area around your studio. These girls tricked you into letting your guard down under the pretense of buying an art piece from you. They knocked you out when you weren’t looking and force-fed you with drugs. Please have a closer look, milady. Are these the ones?”Lucas reminded Charlotte as he followed closely behind her.Charlotte may not know Zachary enough to be able to read his emotions, but Lucas knew that he was fuming. The girls who had drugged Charlotte were destined for a tragic fate.Therefore, Charlotte needed to confirm their identities. It would be a disaster if they ended up hurting innocent people.Charlotte nodded firmly.“It’s them.”Charlotte was not a pushover. She would have found a way to find those girls, even if Zachary hadn’t done it for her.She would never forget their young, wi
“Thank you.”Zachary looked at her, concealing his emotions.Her face was as red as a tomato at this point. She was as ugly as one could be. However, Zachary felt that her smile was far more beautiful than the most gorgeous scenery in the world.“Well, milady, what would you like to do to them?” asked Lucas.Charlotte turned toward the two girls in the cage.“Don’t you have the surveillance footage from my art studio? Use the part in the footage in which they tricked me, hit me, and forced medicine down my throat, and send it to the teachers and principal of their school. Then call the police and let them handle them.”The girls wailed when they heard that, sobbing even more profusely than ever.Students at this age weren’t afraid of their parents discovering their misdeeds nor the consequences. Their greatest fear was their teachers and principal.Based on their vile level of mischief, their principal would certainly call them out during a school assembly, expel them, and have
