Charlie pushed up his glasses and said to Matthew proudly, "The judge and I are good friends. I'll get him to work on it quickly. Let's try to get the results within three days. If the results are out within three days, then we'll leave after that. If the results will take five days, then we can only leave after that."After Charlie finished speaking, he stood up."Where are you going?" Matthew looked at Charlie standing up. He did not know what he wanted to do."Of course, I'm going to eat. I was busy all afternoon waiting for those notices and other things. You haven't even treated me to a meal until now, and you even made me sit in on the meeting. Now that everything has been done, shouldn't you treat me to a meal? Are you that stingy? I'm almost starving here!" Charlie finished all his complaints in one breath and then looked at Matthew.Matthew had no choice but to get up and take Charlie to the restaurant downstairs. …"The steak in this restaurant is delicious. Do you w

Lucy noticed that their phones had rung at the same time. Not knowing what the situation was, she asked them, "What's going on?" "Something happened!" Hudson said and then looked at Koven, consciously asking if the message he received was the same as what he received.Koven saw his expression and figured that they had received the same message. He asked Hudson, "You also received a message from the Hype and Elegance Fashion Show?" "Yes, you too?"Koven fell silent at this time.Lucy looked at the two of them and did not know what was going on, but she felt that something bad had happened. She immediately asked, "What happened? You two look off."Hudson and Koven looked at each other. Then, Hudson said, "The Hype and Elegance Fashion Show sent a message saying that you plagiarized your design."Lucy's eyes widened when she heard this, and she hurriedly said, "That's impossible. During this period, I've been working on the design in the company. I've never taken my work home or

"The most important thing is that Lacee is already famous in the design circle. Even if you say that Lacee stole your work, others won't believe you. They'll only think that you're a small-time designer trying to frame Lacee. This matter isn't simple, so let's go over and solve it quickly." After saying this, Koven began to have a headache.When he first met Lacee, he had already felt that she was not a good person. Unexpectedly, something really wrong. He really did not think it through at the time."I don't think that's possible. Lacee has only entered my office a few times, and I was always there whenever she came in. She had no chance of sneaking in! Also, I usually leave later than her. I don't think it was likely that she returned to the company at a later time to break into my office and steal my work either." Lucy still could not believe that Lacee was the one who did it. For some reason, she felt that her memory had declined since getting pregnant. Many things had become

"She's attacking me right to my face. Don't you think she's going too far?" Lacee exposed her true nature in front of Lucy. At this moment, she was still pretending to be pitiful and letting others pity her.At this time, the woman standing next to Lacee came over and pushed Lucy. Lucy lost her balance and fell backward. Fortunately, Hudson and Koven reacted quickly and immediately stepped forward to support Lucy."Lucy, are you okay?""Do you need to go to the hospital?"Hudson and Koven spoke one after another. After all, this push might cost them both their lives, and this place was too chaotic. The people around Lacee believed her. Besides, it was not easy to be a new designer. All of them would experience such things at the beginning."I'm fine." Lucy saw Lacee sitting on a chair. She was so angry that she did not know where to vent. It was obviously Lacee who plagiarized her work, but she did not expect to be bitten by her instead. This made her very distressed."You sh

"Shut up, Lacee! That's enough. I've tolerated you enough in the company. I didn't expect you to dare to talk like this now." Hudson's voice was cold as he rebuked Lacee."Mr. Xender, why do you think that it's my fault? It's Lucy who plagiarized my work! Isn't it common for a small-time designer to plagiarize the work of someone more renowned? Cases like this have happened before."Mr. Xender, are you showing her special treatment because she's Mr. Leon's wife?" Lacee spoke wildly, not shying away from anything."Lacee, that's enough. I'll find out who plagiarized in this matter. As for today's fashion show, no employee is participating anymore. I think it's for the best," Hudson said directly, leaving Lacee speechless and not knowing what to say."Mr. Xender, that's not right. Lacee is obviously the victim here. Why do you favor Lucy? She's just a small-time designer." The people around them pointed at Hudson and defended Lacee. After all, Hudson was not their boss, so they were

"Anyway, my conscience is clear. Since I didn't plagiarize, I won't withdraw my design from the fashion show," Lucy said firmly. She did nothing wrong, so why should her work be withdrawn from the fashion show? Moreover, the Hype and Elegance Fashion Show was a good opportunity for domestic and foreign designers to showcase their works. She could not miss it. Koven and Hudson looked at each other before turning to look at Lucy."Lucy, Hudson and I both trust you very much in this matter, but since this kind of thing has happened, both your designs must be withdrawn. Otherwise, it's very likely that this incident will ruin your future.""But..." Lucy hesitated to speak. She did not want to waste her hard work of several months, but she could not find a better way to solve this problem at the moment."If you suspect that I plagiarized Lucy, you should go look for evidence instead of questioning me here now. Everyone present knows right from wrong. It's obvious that you're pushing

"Charlie, now that we've finished our meal and everything is done, can we call Noah over now?" Matthew asked Charlie, who was lying on the couch.Charlie sneered and looked at him."It's not the right time yet. Wait an hour more! We've just finished reviewing Willis, so we'll have to wait for a while for Willis to tell Noah that you already know these things."Matthew did not understand what Charlie meant by this sentence."What do you mean by that? Are we going to let them go and wait for them to collude before calling them over? Wouldn't that erase all the truth?""My dear Mr. Leon, how could the truth be erased? Even if they collude with each other, it depends on what they're colluding on. If they wish to collude, then the things they say must be the same. What do you think are the chances of the confessions of two people being exactly the same? "If both Noah and Willis say the exact same thing, the only explanation is that they really are colluding with each other. In that c

"It's better to handle this as soon as possible. Otherwise, if Matthew were to find out, he'd definitely skin us alive. The most important thing now is to calm Lucy and Lacee. We have to let them reconcile and find out the details of this matter," Koven said to Hudson."By the way, is there a surveillance camera in Lucy's office?" Koven only remembered this at this time, so he immediately turned his head and asked Hudson.Hudson thought for a while and said, "Lucy's office has no surveillance cameras. Lucy came here just after the renovation, and the cameras were not yet connected. But there are cameras in Lacee's office, including in the corridor outside.""Then why don't we go back with Lucy to check it out first in case there are any clues? There are only six hours left before the Hype and Elegance Fashion Show. We have to hurry up and try not to make any mistakes."Hudson nodded, then pushed the door open and went into the side hall with Koven.Lucy raised his head when she he

As Gabriella examined the luxurious clothes, bags, shoes, and pants, she could not help but feel that Lucy was completely unappreciative of such treasures.

They spent quite a while going through the various garments and accessories, yet there were still items they had not finished checking out.Lucy gave an awkward smile, acknowledging her own laziness. After a long search, Gabriella finally found a piece that caught her eye. As she checked the tag, she was surprised to find that the dress was designed by a renowned French designer. It featured a V-neck, with simple yet elegant sleeves that revealed a hint of Lucy's arms, while the skirt was a refined and tailored fit.Gabriella held up the dress against Lucy, murmuring to herself, “Hmm, this one’s nice! You should try it on!” Even though she spoke to Lucy in a tone reminiscent of an older sister, she still maintained her authority as a mother-in-law. It made her words both

Matthew noticed Lucy’s absent-mindedness and asked gently, "Lulu, what’s on your mind?"“Oh, nothing… I just think what happened to Charlotte is so sudden,” Lucy replied.“Don’t worry about it. It has nothing to do with us. She was always trying to harm you. Her fate is something she brought upon herself.” Matthew patted her head comfortingly.However, Lucy found it suspicious. Although the news reported Charlotte’s assassination and that the monastery had burned down to ashes, it did not mention her body. That kind of crucial detail would not have been overlooked by the media.Matthew had also considered this possibility, but he had kept it to himself to avoid alarming Lucy. Charlotte had been sent to the monastery because of him and Lucy, and she had to harbor a deep hatred for them. If she managed to orchestrate her own escape, what if she was now seeking help from Spades to target Lucy? That would be dangerous.“Lulu, don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to you or the ch

With nothing left to hold onto, Charlotte walked down the empty streets, her heart heavy with despair. She wore a black veil that covered her completely, revealing only her eyes. She even had on dark sunglasses. She dared not walk in the open or be seen, nor did she dare expose Juliana’s crimes to the world.She used to be a princess. Everything she had done, every privilege and indulgence, was backed by Arthur and Juliana’s love and permission. Now that her supporters had betrayed her, what right did she have to be reckless or demand anything? Surviving itself was a luxury. How could she even think of acting willfully?As she wandered in anguish, Charlotte found herself by the river. She remembered coming here with Arthur and Juliana when she was a child, laughing and walking along the bank. Now, each memory felt painfully ironic, and every kiss from Juliana seemed sickening. How could her world be so false? How could even the people she trusted most turn against her?Charlotte cou

Charlotte continued to hide within the castle, unwilling to leave and equally unwilling to let anyone know she was alive—unless they promised never to send her back to the monastery. However, she doubted that would happen, so she kept to the shadows. After all, the castle had plenty of food. It was far better than anything at the monastery.One night, Charlotte quietly slipped into Arthur and Juliana's bedroom. To her surprise, Arthur was not there, and only Juliana was present. 'Dad must be too upset to sleep,' Charlotte thought. She knew him well—whenever he was troubled, he would retreat to the study rather than go to bed.As she watched her beloved mother, a tiny bit of her resolve wavered. Juliana looked utterly exhausted, as if she had lost a lot of weight in just a few days. Charlotte had a sudden urge to go in and comfort her, but she knew that was impossible. Charlotte realized that seeing someone through a wall of separation was the most painful thing of all.Just as

The next morning, news of the assassination attempt on Charlotte was sensationalized across all media outlets. The internet was flooded with headlines about her close brush with death, sparking worldwide shock. No one could believe that Charlotte, notorious for her arrogance and harsh treatment of offenders, could have been targeted like this. Many who resented her strict, often cruel ways were both thrilled and stunned by the news. The royal family immediately tightened security at the monastery, dispatching a large police force to investigate what had happened. The monastery became a focal point of public intrigue.“What? That's impossible! How could there be no trace?” Juliana exclaimed in disbelief. Standing before her was the chief forensic investigator.“Yes, Your Majesty, there's no sign of Princess Charlotte’s remains,” the investigator confirmed firmly.“Fine, I understand. Leave me, and keep me informed if anything changes,” Juliana replied, pressing her fingers to her

As the footsteps came closer, Charlotte held her breath, not daring to make a sound. Suddenly, a shadowy figure appeared—it was clear they were targeting her. She watched as the figure approached the bed, moving so quietly it was as if they made no sound at all. What could they possibly be planning? Surely, the headmistress would not go this far?The figure drew closer to the bed, bundled up the pillows and blankets, and then doused something over them. Charlotte could smell it—it was gasoline! Was the headmistress planning to kill her to silence her? She froze, unable to move. The shadow struck a match and dropped it onto the bed. In an instant, flames surged up from the blankets.In the fire’s glow, Charlotte could make out that it was not the headmistress but a man. After setting the fire, he quickly slipped away without making a single sound. Charlotte crept out while stifling a cough, afraid he might hear and return. The flames grew quickly, engulfing the bed and spreading t

Over the past year or so, Charlotte had gradually come to understand that the world was not just about picturesque landscapes and lavish feasts. In the shadows, beyond her sight, lay a world full of schemes and deception. Despite her ongoing attempts to plot against Lucy Quinn, she had not noticed this aspect at all until she arrived at the monastery. Here, she realized how dark human nature could truly be.The women at the monastery constantly criticized and belittled her, while the headmistress was corrupt, using her position for personal vendettas. She was also driven by greed for wealth and status. All Charlotte wanted was to escape this dreadful place and return to her castle. She wanted to go back to her plush, comfortable bed. There, she led a life surrounded by maids tending to her every need.Thinking of this, she remembered Lucy and envisioned her seated in her rightful place, basking in the affection of Arthur and Juliana. She could see Lucy's haughty expression starin

In a moment of heat, Charlotte blurted everything out. Joan was dumbfounded! Was this really Charlotte? She usually did not talk this much, did she? It was not just Joan who was shocked; the headmistress across from Charlotte was equally taken aback. Charlotte was usually so obedient. How had her tongue turned so venomous today? The headmistress was left speechless as every word Charlotte said was so reasonable that no one could argue against it, and it even warranted some compliments! Although Charlotte was confronting the headmistress, each of her statements felt like a plea for justice.Charlotte was not done yet and continued, “Since you know I’m a princess, you should give me some consideration. Yet, in reality, I’m the one giving you all the consideration. Is that reasonable?” Charlotte’s arguments were layered and logical, her thoughts clear. It left the headmistress in a muddle while Joan looked on with envy! The headmistress glanced at Charlotte, feeling quite displease
