Chapter 649

Author: Summer Knowles
Charlie shook his head, his face pale, still refusing to admit it.

“It wasn’t me! I don’t know what you’re talking about. Even if that video shows me, so what? How can you be sure I was doing anything wrong? I came in at 2 a.m. to check if the machines could still be fixed. I did it for the good of the factory!”

Sarah let out a cold laugh.

“Wow. That’s the best you could come up with? You really expect me to believe you were being noble at two in the morning? Don’t forget, we’ve got more than just one camera. You think we only set up one? Every step you took was recorded—and more than that, someone saw you. We’ve got video and a witness. You’re not getting out of this.”

Charlie’s face twisted in disbelief. “No way! There was no one there last night—I checked! You could’ve bribed someone just to frame me!”

Sarah’s expression didn’t budge. “If you’re that desperate to keep lying, feel free to tell it to the cops. I’m done listening to your nonsense. Mr. Lambert, call the police.

    She glanced at Mrs. Chancer, who quickly jumped in to back Charlotte up. “Charlotte’s right. It was all my idea to make you take the fall. If you need someone to blame, blame me!”Lucy looked at her mother, exhaustion in her eyes. “I do blame you. But the truth is, you're still my mom.” With that, she turned and walked away without looking back.Charlotte and Mrs. Chancer exchanged a glance, then headed to James’s office.Ever since the banquet incident, James had been treating Charlotte noticeably better. He even checked in on her from time to time. As soon as he saw her, he stood up. “Charlotte, Mom—what brings you two here?”But a second later, it clicked. They were probably here because of Lucy.The three of them sat down on the couch. Mrs. Chancer was the first to speak. “Has Lucy come to see you yet?”James looked at his mother. “Actually, there’s something I’ve been meaning to ask you. Lucy was assigned to the procurement department on her first day. Was that your decision

    Lucy never thought her own mother would side with Charlotte. Even now, she couldn’t bring herself to be completely cold toward her.She walked over and called softly, “Mom.”Mrs. Chancer's expression shifted slightly, and the smile on her face faded. “Lucy, how was your first day at work? Feeling overwhelmed already? I told you it’d be better to stay home. We can afford to support you. Charlotte already said that even if you don’t work, your share of the dividends is still yours. So why make things harder for yourself? You don’t have to lift a finger and still get paid—what’s the downside?”Lucy glanced at Charlotte. She was smiling—faintly, politely, as if nothing was wrong.After a pause, Charlotte chimed in, “Lucy, everything Mom said is true. I’ve always treated you like a real sister, and I won’t let you be mistreated. Things will be just like before—no, even better. I’ll only love you more.”She hesitated, then gave Mrs. Chancer a look. Mrs. Chancer continued for her.“Lucy

    Charlotte gave a knowing smile. “Mom, Lucy’s never been involved in the company’s affairs. Do you really think she can handle it? We’re not talking about something minor here. If you just gave her dividends, that’d be one thing—but if those shares were handed over directly and she made a mistake, the losses could be huge.”Noticing the flicker of doubt in Mrs. Chancer’s eyes, she pressed on. “Even in the future, when your grandson takes over as CEO, you can be sure he won’t shortchange Lucy.”Her words were loaded. She knew exactly what mattered most to Mrs. Chancer—her grandson’s future.“I understand,” Mrs. Chancer replied calmly. “I have my own way of making her back off. Lucy was never cut out for this.”—The next morning, Lucy reported to the company.The Chancer Corporation towered above her like always—sleek and imposing. Before she was committed, she used to visit often. But now, stepping inside felt foreign.She gave her name at the front desk, and an HR staffer led he

    Hearing the commotion downstairs, Charlotte came down the stairs with the baby in her arms. Spotting Lucy, she gave a strained smile.“You’re back, Lucy. That’s great. Our family’s finally whole again.”But the moment Charlotte reached the bottom step, she instantly drew all of Mrs. Chancer’s attention.Mrs. Chancer hurried over. “Didn’t the baby just fall asleep? Why are you carrying him down?”Charlotte gently handed the baby over. “He doesn’t sleep deeply. Wakes up every thirty minutes. He’s already been fed, though—no need to worry.”The two of them stood there, fussing over the baby—completely ignoring Lucy.Lucy’s eyes turned cold. She wasn’t surprised.Without saying a word, she turned to head upstairs. But Charlotte suddenly called out to her.Putting on the act of a concerned sister-in-law, she said, “Lucy, I’m really glad you’re out of the hospital. But you probably can’t go back to school now. Sigh… I’ll talk to your brother when he’s back and see if there’s anything

    Leon went on and on, using fancy excuses to describe how obedient the woman was. He even said, quite generously, that he’d be happy to give her to James—like she was some kind of object.To him, that’s all she was. Just another thing to pass around.James’s vision began to blur under the weight of the alcohol. His mind foggy, he stared at Leon and the woman, barely able to make out what Leon was still saying.Then, something inside him snapped.Without thinking, he grabbed the bottle next to him and smashed it down hard.A sharp scream pierced the air.Leon collapsed to the floor, unmoving—like he’d passed out cold.The bar erupted into chaos. An ambulance arrived and whisked Leon away. James and the woman went with them.Thirty minutes later, the doctor confirmed there was no serious injury, but Leon was still unconscious. He was expected to remain that way for at least a day.James felt a rush of guilt. He shouldn’t have lost control—but that face had pushed him over the edg

    She acted timid and uneasy, like an immature child.Leon’s eyes flashed with impatience. He knocked back a shot of strong liquor.A knockoff was still a knockoff—always second-rate. If it weren’t for her face, he would’ve lost interest long ago.A few more drinks in, and the lines started to blur. She only showed half her face, but something about her still stirred Leon’s desire.Those deep brown eyes—like bottomless pits—were dark, mysterious, and hard to look away from.Under his gaze, her cheeks turned red. She wasn’t drunk yet, but her mind was already slipping.Leon had chased more women than he could count. He knew exactly how to play the game.With a knowing smile, he pulled her into his arms.---James had been coming to this bar almost every night after work, trying to drink away the emptiness.His doctor had warned him to cut back—his body was already showing signs—but the long nights without her were unbearable.Midway through another glass, his phone lit up with
