Semua Bab The CEO's Addiction To Love: Bab 611 - Bab 620

The man’s inky, dark eyes flashed with a peculiar light.“Cough! Cough! Milady, please take a closer look, you’re grabbing onto the Second Master, not Jebediah!” Lucas explained.Charlotte hurriedly released Zachary. However, she remembered Bryson and ignored her fear. Her heart was filled with sorrow once again. “Zachary, Luke, where’s Bryson? Do you know if he’s alright?”Zachary opened his thin lips yet did not say a word.Lucas answered, “The Second Master and I thought that you and Bryson… Ahem! Let’s not talk about that. Well… The Second Master and I were looking for you when we received a call from Jebediah along the way. He told us that you were at his place, so the Second Master and I went to his house and brought you home. You know that the Second Master has severed ties with Jebediah. They barely spoke. The Second Master asked Jebediah what you were doing in his home and why you had so much blood on you. Jebediah simply told the Second Master that it was Bryson’s blood.

That was a place Zachary had once forbidden her to enter!“Sigh!”Lucas patted Zachary on the shoulder in consolation.“Sir, you’re always reminding me that there’s a limit to everything, but why can’t you take your own advice?”Zachary’s crystalline eyes flashed with confusion. “Huh?”Lucas fiddled with his large earring. “He he… I know that there’s no use beating around the bush with you, sir, so I’ll be straight with you. I think the amount of jealousy you feel is similar to your love for your wife—limitless.”Zachary looked sullen.“Explain yourself.”“I don’t think you should be jealous over Mrs. Connor’s tears for Bryson. How shall I say this…” Lucas mulled over it as he walked out the door with Zachary. “You were right to be jealous when we thought that Mrs. Connor had eloped with Bryson. However, we’ve now discovered that it was all a misunderstanding, haven’t we? Besides, Bryson is dead. One of your love rivals is permanently eliminated. You should be happy, sir. Why d

Charlotte was overcome with emotion, and her lips trembled.“Zachary, what are you doing back here…”“Put this on.”He draped a trench coat over her body.His black trench coat was immaculate and had an enchanting scent as if it held a warmth that could melt an entire mountain of ice.“Regardless of how sad you are, you must take care of your health. Don’t catch a cold.”The man’s cool, magnetic voice held hints of warmth that one would have to listen closely to detect.He walked away before Charlotte could return to her senses.As expected, two police cars arrived at the scene soon after.Once the investigative team had carefully searched the villa, one policeman spoke to Charlotte in a reverent tone. “Miss Simmons, I’m very sorry, but we could not find the body you’ve mentioned.”Charlotte pointed at the main building, now burned away by the fire, with a trembling finger. “The flames were raging when I arrived. Bryson… Could the fire have turned him to ashes?”“No!” The po

“Zachary, I know you’re angry. But shouldn’t you vent your frustrations on whoever made you angry? Why are you making me your punching bag?” “Pfft…”Lucas, who had been enjoying the show from the couch, spat out the sip of coffee he had just taken.‘Mrs. Connor! You’re being completely irresponsible by talking to Second Master in that manner! You and Bryson are the ones who’ve pissed him off. Of course, Second Master can’t bring himself to throw a tantrum at you and Bryson, who’s supposed to be his punching bag, as he is now gone forever. So he’s been holding everything in to the point of abnormality. Do you expect him to hang himself, commit suicide, and meet Bryson in death to release his frustrations?’The most shocking part of all to Lucas was that Zachary, who never tolerated being angered, actually swallowed with all his might. His voice became even more amiable than before.“I think you’ve misunderstood me.”Crash!Lucas dropped the coffee cup in his hands onto the groun

Charlotte keyed in the passcode. The coded lock opened at once.She found a large stack of contracts inside, with an iPad on top of it all and a piece of paper on the iPad.Charlotte recognized the elegant and smooth handwriting on the paper—it was Bryson’s.Lucas, who was standing on Charlotte’s right, watched as Charlotte picked up the piece of paper. He couldn’t help reading it aloud. “Carlie, I’ve recorded a video and stored it in this iPad. Watch it, and you’ll understand.”Charlotte’s fingers trembled.She carefully lifted the iPad out of the box. The iPad was not password protected.Bryson had arranged everything in advance. The video played immediately as soon as she unlocked the iPad.“Carlie, you’re a bright, dazzling girl, like the sun. I hoped that we could talk about happy things whenever I saw you. I never wanted to say anything hurtful that would spoil your mood again. However, there are some things that cannot be avoided. For example, by the time you see this vid
