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
“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
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
On their wedding night, the room was filled with roses. Charlotte sat by the bed as she stared at the wedding photos she and Bryson had taken. Tonight was supposed to be their wedding night, but she would not be sleeping with Bryson later. Someone flipped the switch and all the lights went out in an instant. The room had gone completely dark. Boom! The door was kicked open. Charlotte could vaguely see a tall black figure charging toward her. At that moment, Charlotte felt as if she was being crushed by an iceberg that was pressing down on her. The cold, powerful pressure of the figure was suffocating her. "Ah!" A pair of powerful hands pressed Charlotte's shoulders, and she was pushed to the ground by a strong force... Tears flowed down Charlotte’s face as she bit her lip tightly. She was willing to do this for Bryson! It was only one time, but Charlotte successfully conceived a child. Ten months later, she found herself in a hospital delivery room. This was C
Charlotte and Bryson had a beach villa on the Platinum Coast, where they were going to move after their wedding. She had seen hundreds of houses with Bryson before finally choosing this place. Bryson had been extremely patient and kind to her during the process. The interior of the villa had been completely designed based on Bryson's preferences. The door of the villa was wide open, but the guard stopped Charlotte from entering. "Miss Simmons, you cannot enter. Please stop right there." In the past, the guard had always called Charlotte "Mrs. Harper" or "Madam Harper", but he just called her "Miss Simmons" now. Charlotte insisted on entering the villa. "This is my house. I can come back whenever I want. Let me in." "Miss Simmons..." The guard grabbed her arm reluctantly. "You’ve always been nice to me, and I don't want to see you like this, but I have no choice. Mr. Harper specifically ordered us not to let you in when he returned home not too long ago." Bryson had return
Charlotte started trembling. She still remembered how Bryson had begged for her help on their wedding night. "Bryson, tell me... Tell me what she said isn’t true..." Charlotte looked at Bryson's eyes like a drowning woman clutching at straws. Bryson nodded and said, "Charlotte, I'm sorry."Charlotte's tears, which had been welling up in her eyes, could not stop flowing down her face. Bryson was an egotistical, proud man. Charlotte had never seen him set his pride aside and beg for anything. That was the only time Bryson had ever begged her. It turned out that he had done it for Tiffany... "Bryce, I'm cold." Tiffany's voice was pure and pleasant. At that moment, Charlotte burst into tears. Though Bryson felt bad for her, he obviously cared about Tiff even more. He did not look at Charlotte again as he wrapped his arms around Tiffany. "Tiff, let's get in the car." Charlotte would be an idiot if she still could not understand what the relationship between Bryson and
"Who are you? Is this your... home? Why did you... save me?" Charlotte sat up in a panic, her head filled with questions. She had found herself in a stranger’s bed, and she was no longer wearing the clothes she had been wearing before. She was in a baggy white man's shirt. The man looked away calmly and said, "Miss Simmons, please be careful." "..." Charlotte suddenly realized what was going on and quickly wrapped her arms around her body in a panic. The man had already turned his back to her, but even so, his strong aura still terrified her. At that moment, a ray of golden light shone on Charlotte's legs. It was reflected off a business card made of pure gold, and there was a name and various titles engraved in the glossy red metal. The name engraved on the card was "Zachary"! Wait a minute! This was the CEO of the Hathaway Group, Zachary Connor! Wasn’t he the infamous Devil in Disguise? There were rumors that Mr. Connor was ruthless and cold-hearted. Three years
The mansion was as majestic as a palace. The hall on the first floor had a surface of over 1,000 meters. Charlotte forced herself to walk out of the door. At that moment, she could not go on any longer. Her legs gave out, and she fell on the jade stone steps in front of the door. Charlotte’s wedding night had become her worst nightmare. Since then, she would have dreams about that night all the time and would always wake up screaming. Charlotte could not explain why, but every time she saw Zachary, she would feel like she had traveled back in time to that night, when that cold, devil-like man had attacked her... A man like Zachary was simply too terrifying for her. She prayed that she would never see him again. Charlotte supported herself and got up from the jade stone steps. When she looked around, she realized that the courtyard was covered in a thick layer of snow, and all she could see was snow everywhere. Meanwhile, snow was still falling. Charlotte had run away from Z
