Chapter 91

Auteur: Nia Young
They had always treated him like a son. Even if they could not help much when problems came up, they worried about him constantly.

When Charlotte fought with him about the divorce a while back, her parents still welcomed him. They cooked for him. They asked about his work.

Tonight was the first time he had ever felt this kind of cold distance from them.

William returned to his car and called his assistant, Gavin. He told him to look into Charlotte’s recent schedule and find out exactly where she was now.

Late that night, on the third floor of Haven Club, Lucas pushed open the private room door. William was already slumped on the sofa, drunk.

Lucas walked over and checked his breathing, only to have William push his hand away. Once he was certain William was fine, Lucas sat across from him.

William sat up and rubbed his temples, exhausted.

Lucas dropped his usual carefree attitude. “I just came from your house. Annie and her son have already left. You are in no condition to deal

    After William warned Michelle, she shrank back and hid behind their parents, too intimidated to say another word.Steven exploded on the spot. “She is just a fallen socialite. Who does she think she is? If she wants a divorce, then let her have it.”William’s expression darkened. “Dad, I am not divorcing her.”Mandy immediately stepped in. “And why not? Do you want Charlotte dragging you into a public divorce battle for everyone to gossip about?”William pressed his fingers to his brow, fighting a headache. “Why is everyone so eager for us to split?”Mr. Harris Sr., who had been silent this whole time, finally spoke. “William, you are the Harris family’s only heir. Everything you say and do reflects on more than just yourself. You carry this family’s name and the future of the Harris Corporation. Given the circumstances, you need to think about the bigger picture.”His tone hardened into a command. “Before that cheating scandal explodes, end the marriage as soon as possible and m

    William nodded reluctantly. “Alright. I won’t pressure you to come back with me. Just don’t do anything reckless.”Hearing him finally give in, Charlotte let out a shaky breath.The next second, while she was distracted, William lunged forward. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her away from the guardrail.Her feet dragged against the pavement as he held her tightly. His breathing was uneven.He ignored her frantic struggling and barked out, his voice low and rough, “Do you have any idea how dangerous that was? What if you fell?”Charlotte broke down in his arms. She fought him with everything she had and screamed through her tears, “If I can’t divorce you, I would rather die!”William’s body stiffened. Then his arms tightened around her.He said nothing. He closed his eyes, feeling the warmth of her trembling body pressed against his chest.In that moment, he understood.She truly wanted the divorce.He didn’t give her another chance to resist. William carried her ba

    Traffic rushed beneath the overpass, headlights streaming like rivers.By the guardrail, they stood locked in a long, heavy stare that lasted several seconds.William finally snapped out of his shock and grabbed her wrist, his voice tight.“Charlotte, that was our wedding ring!”Charlotte yanked her arm free. Her eyes were cold.“I hope you disappear from my life the same way that ring did.”William froze. For a moment he just looked at her, stunned and unsteady. His lips parted, his voice rough and strained.“Are you serious?”Charlotte’s expression did not waver.“We grew up together for over twenty years. We have been married for three. All I want is for us to part on decent terms. I am not being dramatic. I’m not trying to punish you. I truly want a divorce.”She had grown up around wealthy families. She had seen wives tolerate mistresses, secret children, and humiliation in the name of keeping a home together. Even William’s own mother had done it.She could not.Willi

    Charlotte lay stiffly on the bed with her eyes wide open, too angry to sleep.Ever since she was little, William always used the same two tricks to coax her. He either wore her out in bed or tried to make things right with gifts.Even now, when she was asking for a divorce, he was still the same.He was the one who brought up the conversation, yet he was also the one who dodged it in the end.The more Charlotte thought about it, the angrier she became. She pushed herself upright in frustration.William didn’t react at all. In the faint light coming through the window, she leaned over to look at him.The sight of him sleeping so soundly made her even angrier.The next morning, Charlotte woke up on the couch. She went into the bedroom to wash up just as William stepped out of the bathroom.She walked past him without a glance. “If you’re awake, then leave.”William stood at the sink and watched her reflection in the mirror. “The HY Corporation chairwoman is turning eighty. She p

    William’s rational reasoning shattered Charlotte all over again.He had flown across the world to find her, yet the only thing he wanted was to convince her to accept Annie and Liam in their marriage.Charlotte pushed him hard, her expression twisted with anger. “William, I was married to you for three years. Every dollar you spent on my family was written down like a debt we owed you. That is what reality looks like.”Something in William tightened. He stepped forward and caught both her wrists. His lips moved as if he wanted to respond, but no words came out.Charlotte’s eyes grew wet. She tried to yank her hands free. “You want to talk about reality. You treat me like I don’t matter, but you give that woman and her kid every bit of affection you have. How can you be this hypocritical?”William wrapped one arm around her waist and used the other to soothe her back, ignoring her struggle.“We haven’t seen each other in a week,” he said quietly. “Let’s not do this right now.”Ch

    The two of them faced each other. The despair and sadness in Charlotte’s eyes were unmistakable, and William saw every bit of it.A dull ache spread through his chest. He stepped forward and took her hands.“Charlotte, I admit it. When Annie first came back, I let the shock of seeing her again cloud my judgment. She and the child were both sick, and I took care of them day and night. She said I owed her a public post, so I made one and showed her. But it was only up for one minute before I deleted it. I hid it from you because I did not want you to overthink.”He added quietly, “I did stay out overnight a few times after she returned, but I never touched her. Not then, not now, not ever.”In college he had been kidnapped, and Annie had risked her own safety to save him. Later she pursued him, and he agreed to give the relationship a chance. He had once found her honest, simple, gentle, and brave. With him, she was always obedient, always accommodating. He had liked her, and he had
