Chapter 231 Chicky Is Alive

Charlotte stood in the courtyard, dumbfounded. She stared helplessly at the empty backyard and called out twice, "Chicky?" But there was no response.She closed her eyes, unable to describe her emotions; it was no longer just anger. It was just a chicken, not really a pet. But it was a gift from Julie, something that belonged to her.Most importantly, Julie liked it so much and was willing to give it to her. When she had received it, she couldn't help but cry and laugh, and when she entrusted it to Helen to take care of, she was committed.Why did Griffith feel entitled to touch her belongings, let alone a living creature, just because he was in a bad mood? He'd gone so far as to kill it. She was so angry that she turned around expressionlessly and ran back into the living room.Helen saw that her expression was off and, not understanding what was going on, asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"Charlotte didn't say a word, hearing movement upstairs. She looked up and saw Griffith coming o

Chapter 232 Charlotte Confronts Griffith

"Oh my! How did this chicken end up here?""I remember now. There was a little rain this afternoon and it was windy, so I asked one of the housekeepers to close the windows in your room from the outside."Helen grabbed the chicken as she chattered, but when she turned around, she noticed Charlotte's complex expression."Madam?"Charlotte responded expressionlessly. "Who ordered supper?""Order?" Helen was puzzled. "Aren't these the usual dishes? You and Young Master don't order dishes, so the kitchen makes whatever is fresh."Charlotte's face paled, and she didn't care whether chicken feathers were on the couch as she sat down. She had been too nervous. She began to doubt if the dish from earlier was chicken.Suddenly, there were footsteps at the door. Helen carried the chicken and went to open the door, finding that Griffith's expression had grown even colder. She couldn't even bring herself to speak.Griffith glanced around the room and pressed his lips, his gaze as cold as i

Chapter 233 A Scratch

Downstairs, Helen became anxious when she heard no sound come from upstairs. She wondered if she should call the old mansion and ask Francine to intervene. Suddenly, an unusually sharp chicken cry pierced the silence.She instinctively turned and looked upstairs. The bedroom door opened. Griffith intended to leave, but the chicken flew out behind him. He turned around, and in an instant, the chicken scratched the corner of his eye. Helen and Charlotte were shocked. Chicky landed on the floor, and Griffith bumped into the door frame. The second he turned away, Charlotte glimsed the scratch in the corner of his eye. It was about two to three centimeters long.He used his knuckles to brush the injured area. Feeling pain, he glared at Charlotte icily. Charlotte was still in shock, lost for words. A few seconds later, Griffith turned around expressionlessly and disappeared from her sight.Helen walked upstairs, and noticing the injury near Griffith's eye, she felt sorry for him. She ha

Chapter 234 You Don't Deserve Affection

The study door was left ajar, and Charlotte lightly knocked on it twice before pushing it open.As she entered, the thick smell of smoke greeted her. She coughed twice upon speaking. The study was completely dark, and the only light source was where she stood by the door.Griffith sat on the sofa, leaning forward, his brows and eyes filled with profound melancholy. He pulled a sour face, tapping cigarette ash into a crystal ashtray. Hearing the noise, he glanced at her from the corner of his eye."Get out," he said.Charlotte remained unfazed and said, "Grandma asked me to check on you.""I've been checked. You can leave now."Charlotte took a deep breath. She entered the room and placed the first aid kit on the table before opening it. The man exhaled a puff of smoke, squinting at her as he sized her up. "Have you thought it through? Did you realize I'm still useful and have come back to act like a pitiable and strong-willed victim, clinging onto me as your long-term meal ticke

Chapter 235 Charlotte's Hurtful Words

"You must have driven away everyone who came into your life and tried to be good to you. I don't owe you anything! We're divorced. I have no obligation to cater to your mood! I can't imagine how anyone could tolerate you."Charlotte noticed the look in Griffith's eyes changed at the end of her words.That murderous intent was like that night when he attacked the thugs at Krystal's house. She did not doubt that he might attack her in the next moment.She clenched her fists and stared into his eyes. Since getting the divorce certificate, she had constantly absorbed his emotions. Yes, she had asked for his help, but when it came down to it, hadn't he used her too? It was a mutually beneficial relationship, so what gave him the right to treat her like that?In the darkness around them, illuminated only by the faint light from the doorway, they could see the flames in each other's eyes. After a long standoff, Griffith's overwhelming killing intent gradually subsided. His gaze toward Cha

Chapter 236 Everyone Suffers

Charlotte couldn't sleep. The hen didn't sleep either. She couldn't understand why a hen would cluck at night.At one o'clock in the morning, the hen kept clucking in her room, and it was so loud that she guessed that the noise could probably be heard in the small living room outside, but she wasn't sure if it could be heard in Griffith's room."Stop clucking!" she exclaimed.The chicken quieted for a few seconds, then suddenly jerked its head to the right and left, looking extremely nervous.The next moment…"Cock-a-doodle-doo!"Charlotte let out a scream and pulled the blanket over her head. Help!Her tolerance for this chicken because of Julie shattered. She wanted to eat 'Chicky Mushroom Stew' right then.Thinking about it, she felt the argument with Griffith tonight over a silly chicken wasn't worth it. For the sake of a foolish chicken, they had an unprecedented conflict. Now, with the dawn breaking, she didn't know what to do.Griffith lay on the bed in the bedroom and

Chapter 237 A Tantrum-Throwing Child

Charlotte stared at the door momentarily, then lowered her head and called Ash. Before long, Ash came and opened the door again. Seeing that it was her, Ash remained calm and asked, "Is there something you need?"Charlotte raised the chicken and said, "I might not be able to care for Chicky anymore. Can you look after it?"Ash hadn't thought that she would come over early in the morning just to deliver the chicken. He thought she had come to appease the tyrant inside.He took Chicky from her, turned to the side, and casually said, "We're having breakfast. Join us.""No, thanks. I have something else to do," Charlotte replied. She glanced inside but didn't see Griffith. Withdrawing her gaze, she nodded to Ash and walked toward the elevator.Holding the chicken, Ash thought about how he saw her meeting Simon yesterday. He could guess the situation. The poor chicken was the biggest victim here. He saw it; there was a rope tied around the its neck.Sigh.He closed the door, and Juli

Chapter 238 Another Unexpected Incident

Charlotte wasn't completely unaffected; at the very least, her mood was quite sour. Since the promotional tour began, ticket sales for 'Snow White' had not been an issue. On this particular day, they had just finished three major performances in a row. Starting from the morning, she hadn't even had a moment to breathe.By the time the final performance ended, the sun had already dimmed. She sat in the dressing room, gulping down a large sip of water, finally feeling her body relax.However, as soon as she checked the time, she felt restless again, thinking about whether she should skip returning to the mansion tonight. Just as she contemplated this, she heard a commotion outside."Mary, what's going on?"Before she could finish her thought, the dressing room door burst open, and Mary rushed in with a pale face, looking extremely distressed."Charlotte, you need to come quick; something big has happened!"Judging from Mary's expression, this was not good news. Charlotte's heart sk

Chapter 239 Already Guessed It Was Her

"This sort of thing should be settled privately by offering some money. Calling the police will only tarnish the theater's reputation!" Inside and outside the office, a crowd had gathered. It had only been a few days since the previous dramatic incident involving the elderly and disabled, and now this. It was quite a rollercoaster ride, and everyone found it overwhelming.Charlotte sat calmly on the couch.When Lucy initially pulled her aside, she knew that if this was a simple aaaextortion attempt just for money; it would be best to settle it privately. However, she was sure that the other party wasn't after money. They were targeting her. She had to call the police and thoroughly investigate all the details to ensure that bigger problems wouldn't arise."Ms. Wallace, I'm so disappointed in you," Mr. Logan said, looking at her with disdain. He had thought of her as a money tree, but now, she caused so much trouble just as she was starting to make him some profit.Jessica was sit

Chapter 240 He Came to Show Support

"Someone like you from a humble background is still dreaming of becoming the future lady of the Wilsons? I just find you unpleasant and want you to leave the family!"Charlotte listened and chuckled. She wondered what gave the spawn of a mistress like her the audacity to mock her background. Charlotte had endured enough of Michelle."Do you think picking on me like this will make me miserable?""Are you going to seek help from my brother?""What would I need him for? He's busy running the company to make money for me to support our family. For this kind of thing, I'll turn to Simon.""You wouldn't dare!""You shouldn't be questioning if I dare to do it. You should be making a bet with me on whether I'll do it." After saying this, she hung up the phone directly.Three seconds later, a call came in from that side. They were getting anxious. Seeing this, Charlotte had a mocking expression.As clever as she was, Mariah probably didn't expect her eldest daughter to possess such low
