FAZER LOGIN“Mr. Carter, your unborn child was lost due to this trauma. This is serious.” “You brought this upon yourself, Charlotte” his words laced with venom. “And I’m not going to pay her medical bills either. This is all just an act.” “I don’t trust her who claims to have been assaulted,” he spat, his voice dripping with disdain. "She must have seduced them; after all, she already did it once. How can I trust her now? I don’t have time for her drama.” I felt my heart shatter at his cruel dismissal. How could he be so heartless? --- After dedicating her youth to saving lives, Charlotte Valco finds her own destiny slipping away. Her act of heroism at St. Peter Hospital binds her in an arranged marriage to Howard Carter, a wealthy heir whose icy demeanor leaves her longing for genuine affection. Charlotte’s dreams of happiness shatter beneath his emotional distance, the relentless cruelty of his adoptive sister Anastasia, and the scornful machinations of his mother, Karla. Isolated and gaslit, Charlotte loses everything—including her unborn child—when Howard sides with Anna, allowing tragedy to unfold at the hands of old enemies. Broken and alone, Charlotte’s only wish is for a chance to rewrite her fate. Miraculously transported back three years, she awakens in St. Peter Hospital as a doctor, her life—and marriage—unwritten. Armed with memories of betrayal and heartache, Charlotte resolves to choose her own path, protect herself from those who hurt her, and reclaim the compassion that once defined her. As she seeks justice, makes bold choices, and confronts her enemies—including Howard and Anastasia—Charlotte discovers that second chances come with powerful new risks… and the possibility to turn tragedy into triumph.
Ver maisDuring a quiet lunch, Mr. Wendell Carter, Howard, and Charlotte sat together, each lost in their own thoughts as the soft clatter of cutlery and muted conversations enveloped them. Wendell’s steady gaze broke the silence.“I’ve called you both here,” Wendell said, his voice calm but purposeful, “because I needed to speak with you alone.”Howard and Charlotte both paused, sensing the weight behind his words.Wendell continued without hesitation, “Delaying the wedding any further is not right. It must happen by the end of this week.”Howard’s patience wore thin. He looked at his grandfather with restrained frustration and then at Charlotte, trying to find some support. “Why such haste? I know your decision is final, but surely we deserve some time to prepare?” he asked quietly.Charlotte’s voice was even, her demeanor composed. “I have no problem with the timeline,” she said simply, taking a sip of her drink.Howard shot her a sharp glare, his anger simmering beneath the surface.Wendel
Wendell and Howard arrived at the city’s finest luxury restaurant, the neatly polished entrance gleaming under soft golden lights. As they entered, the maître d’ directed them to a reserved table. Howard scanned the room expectantly—but Charlotte was nowhere to be seen.Wendell glanced at him sharply. “Where is she?” he asked straightforwardly.Howard, irritation flaring, shrugged. “How would I know?”Wendell leaned forward, his voice firmer. “She’s your fiancée, Howard. You should know. Call her right now.”Howard stayed silent, eyes flicking to his phone but not moving to dial.Wendell raised an eyebrow. “Don’t tell me you don’t have your fiancée’s number.”Howard’s jaw tightened. The air between them crackled with tension as Wendell waited for an answer.Charlotte glanced at her wristwatch and was shocked. "Oh no, I'm late!" she muttered urgently. Julia had sent her a message from Howard, reminding her of their 1 PM meeting at Le Bernardin. Anxiety pushed her to move quickly; she g
Howard entered his office without a word, the sound of his shoes echoing sharply against the marble floor. He caught sight of the files on his desk—stacked precisely, just as he’d instructed.Julia stood beside the desk, posture tense. When Howard glanced her way, she offered a quiet, “Good morning, sir.” He didn’t respond, not even with a nod.He moved to his chair, ignoring any attempt at small talk. Julia began, “I’ve prepared the annual transaction and financial expenses report, as you requested.” Her voice trembled just enough to betray her nerves.Howard didn’t look at her. “Leave it. Go.” His tone was flat and distant, every syllable clipped and disinterested.Julia hesitated, then silently placed the documents in front of him. Without another word, she left the room, the door closing quietly behind her. Howard’s expression did not shift. He picked up the first page, eyes scanning the numbers with the cold, unfeeling focus of a man who allowed no one near—especially not those w
Howard was busy on his laptop in his bedroom when there was a knock on the door.“Come in,” he said.Moments later, Anastasia entered with a cup of coffee, smiling sweetly.“Howard, your coffee,” she said.Howard looked up at her and smiled faintly.“Anna, thank you, but you don’t need to bring this every day. There are plenty of maids in the house—you could ask one of them to bring it.”Anastasia wore a mask of innocence, her tone filled with sweetness, but her mind was plotting something else entirely. She had never seen Howard as a brother but as the man she loved. And soon, Charlotte was about to take him away from her—something Anastasia could never allow.Placing the cup on the table, she said softly, “Howard, just like you care for me, I care for you too. It makes me happy to do little things for you. Your future wife thinks I’m a burden to this family. Once she marries and comes here, who knows what more she’ll say—maybe she’ll even take away my right to bring you your nightly
