Chapter 217 “What did you just say?” Kenneth stared at her, sure he must have misheard. Lottie wanted a shirtless photo of him? He knew he looked good, but it’s not like he’d ever wanted to be a flasher in front of Charlotte. Anthony put down his glass of milk
Chapter 216 She could still picture what she saw last night, clear as day. Anthony’s body was… surprisingly nice. Now she couldn’t help but wonder if he looked like that in real life, too. Catching herself daydreaming about him, Charlotte frowned and threw off the covers, heading straight for the
Chapter 215 Anthony stood under the shower, tipping his head back and letting the hot water wash over him. Steam rolled through the bathroom, turning everything hazy behind the glass. His tall silhouette flickered in and out of view, the light catching on sharp cheekbones, a strong body, and lines
Chapter 214 “Can you ride this?” Anthony slid his feet onto the pegs and revved the engine, a low, sexy laugh escaping him. “I can drive anything.” Charlotte blinked, then gave his waist a quick, cheeky squeeze. “Pretty sure driving doesn’t require your mouth.” Anthony’s dark eyes glinted. His throat
Chapter 213 “Trying to win me over isn’t going to work just because you messed up.” Anthony shrugged off his jacket and draped it over Charlotte’s shoulders. His words sounded like a scolding, but his tone was soft and gentle, so much so that it barely felt like a reproach
Chapter 212 “Thank you.” Stella took the box with a polite smile, opened it, and used the little fork to nibble at her cake, each bite tiny and careful. Charlotte watched her, taking in Stella’s pale, delicate features. Something shifted in her eyes, a shadow passing through. For a moment,
Chapter 211 The sky was getting darker, the city lights flickering on one by one as a luxury Bugatti Veyron glided down the street. Anthony had one hand on the wheel, the other clutching his phone. He called Charlotte again, but all he got was the same automated message. Her
Chapter 210 “Yes, I broke the contract,” Samantha said, not even bothering to explain herself. She just smiled, casual and unbothered. “So what if there’s a penalty? I can pay.” She really could pay. Steven did some quick math in his head. The breach fee had to be at least
Chapter 209 Samantha didn’t waste time. She took out her phone, found the mall manager’s number, and made the call right in front of everyone. “The shop at B2-11. I want their brand out of SKC by ten tonight.” The moment those words left her mouth, the sales associates froze.
Chapter 208 He was practically holding his breath, desperate for her to leave before the Main family lost even more face. Steven already knew the essentials about the Gates family. Samantha had three sons, all impressive in their own ways. Donald was in the military, Roger worked at a hospital,
Chapter 207 “Wait.” The voice echoed through the boutique, sweet but somehow sharp enough to send a chill through the air. Everyone stopped and turned to look. At the entrance stood a tall woman, graceful and poised. She wore a crisp white Hermes suit from the latest collection, black heels
Chapter 206 Olivia’s eyes filled with tears as she watched her favorite dress slip through her fingers. She stood there for a few seconds, fists clenched, forcing herself to speak. “Charlotte, if you’re short on cash, why not just ask your family? Why would you stoop so low as to
Chapter 205 “Charlotte, what do you think?” Shirley peeked out of the fitting room, her arms wrapped around herself like she was afraid to breathe. She’d never worn anything this expensive before and moved like the fabric might shatter if she even blinked too hard. Charlotte glanced up, nodded. “We’ll
Chapter 204 Robert’s mood took a nosedive. “Lottie, Grandpa just wants to make it up to you.” His voice sounded pitiful, and Charlotte couldn’t help but frown. Why was he so desperate for her to spend his money, and actually upset when she didn’t? She pressed her lips together, then
Chapter 203 Shirley walked over, caught a glance at the phone, and nearly burst out laughing. She covered her mouth, whispering, “Whoa, someone’s got a secret admirer.” Charlotte raised an eyebrow. This counted as a confession? The messages were so cringe, she almost rolled her eyes. No wonder Anthony had
Chapter 202 “You little brat. Just because I’m older, you think I’m losing my mind The voice on the phone was so quiet that Charlotte couldn’t quite catch what was being said. “Someone sent me a photo from a car accident scene… you were holding a girl Patricia sounded worked
Chapter 201 The next morning, a soft breeze fluttered through the sheer curtains, letting warm sunlight spill into the room. Charlotte got up and washed her face. Even without any makeup, her skin was smooth and fair, her features so delicate that she practically glowed. She finished getting ready and
Chapter 200 “Hmm?” Charlotte was half asleep and trying to get her coat off, but her fingers kept fumbling with the buttons. She’d tried a few times already and still couldn’t get it undone. “Have you ever thought about moving back home?” Anthony’s voice was gentle as he took her
Chapter 199 Right then, Anthony’s phone buzzed. He glanced down to see a message from an unknown number. It read, I like you. Like her? Someone at school was trying to hit on her? Honestly, he couldn’t be surprised. Lottie was gorgeous and smart, and there was no way she
Chapter 198 Kenneth wasn’t joking around. He knew Anthony better than anyone. The man was powerful, untouchable, and always kept his distance. Nobody in their right mind would mess with him. Lottie, on the other hand, was sweet and innocent, open- hearted and a little delicate. She just wasn’t in
