Chapter 77 Anthony’s heart melted a little. He just couldn’t bring himself to turn her away. He tugged the blanket up, gently covering them both, then patted her head softly to comfort her. “It’s alright now.” Just like that, the tension eased from Charlotte’s face. She relaxed against him, rubbing
Chapter 76 A flicker of surprise flashed across Anthony’s eyes as he turned toward Charlotte. He’d designed the lock on his bedroom door himself. Even top tech experts would have a hard time with it, but Charlotte had it open in less than five seconds. That was definitely something. “Charlotte?”
Chapter 75 She must have dropped it at the crash site. Without her medicine, there was nothing for her to take tonight. If she lost control and did something completely out of line… Just thinking about it made her shudder. Charlotte dragged the chair over, wedging it tight against the
Chapter 74 “Are you feeling sick anywhere?” Anthony asked. Charlotte blinked, her voice calm and even. “No.” Well, of course not. With her skills, if anything was wrong, she’d have fixed it herself. Anthony thought back to when she had saved his grandmother and that little boy. He couldn’t help
Chapter 73 “You’ll catch a cold. Come to my place and change?” Anthony’s voice was soft, a gentle question as he dabbed the water from Charlotte’s face with a tissue. “Okay.” Her answer was quiet but clear, no hesitation. He smiled, fastening her seatbelt with care. Ten minutes later, they
Chapter 72 “She did.” A bystander pointed right at Charlotte. When the paramedic finally got a good look at her, he froze, his eyes wide with disbelief. “You’re the one who did the emergency treatment?” Stopping a brain bleed like that… Most doctors couldn’t have managed it without surgery tools.
Chapter 71 That guy was seriously scary. I was not about to mess with him. “If you want your son to survive, keep your hands off me,” Charlotte said. The chaos around them faded into silence. Charlotte turned to face the boy’s mother, her voice steady, cool, almost cold. “So,
Chapter 70 “Charlotte!” Anthony never saw it coming. One second, Charlotte was beside him, the next she was diving straight into the water. He reached out, but his fingers just grabbed thin air. Did she even know how to swim? He didn’t waste a second thinking. Anthony jumped in after
Chapter 69 Charlotte’s eyes grew darker as she casually switched off her phone and glanced up, meeting Anthony’s gaze. He was impossible to ignore, even in the low evening light. The long black trench coat made his shoulders look even broader, his waist trim. He kept his eyes lowered, but
Chapter 68 Why did she look so much like Nora? Kenneth rolled down his window, slipped off his sunglasses, and rested his arm on the door. He leaned out a little, honking a few times, trying to catch her attention. Charlotte turned her head at the noise. She pushed up
Chapter 67 Charlotte stood off to the side, her right foot pressed against the wall. The crisp black and white of her uniform made her look even slimmer, her pale skin almost glowing under the hallway lights. Her hair was long and dark and fell softly over her shoulders. She
Chapter 66 Work hard? Eleanor felt her head throb just thinking about it. Even if she dumped all the knowledge in the world straight into Charlotte’s brain, there just wasn’t enough time for her to process it all. But what was done was done. All she could do now was
Chapter 65 Second in the grade? A girl who barely scraped together a passing score was now saying she could rank second in the whole year. Bald Lee let out a sharp laugh, like he’d just heard the wildest joke. “You really are from the middle of nowhere,” he said,
Chapter 64 “Mr. Baker, Mr. Lee, Charlotte just transferred here from another school. She hasn’t learned the material we tested on, so it makes sense that her score wasn’t great this time,” Eleanor said, her voice gentle. Bald Lee let out a sharp laugh. “That’s not what I heard from
Chapter 63 Bald Lee’s apology to Charlotte was all over the school forum, the video shared and reshared until it felt like everyone had seen it. The moment Charlotte stepped onto campus, she was hit by a wave of stares. Some were full of awe, others just plain shocked, and
Chapter 62 For a few quiet seconds, nothing happened. Then a slender, pale arm slipped out from under the covers, scooped up the phone, and set it beside the pillow. Only then did she shut her eyes, finally able to sleep. That night, not a single nightmare came. The next
Chapter 61 “Save the money for your own brain treatment.” Charlotte tossed out the words without a second glance and disappeared at the top of the stairs. “You… you ungrateful child Steven nearly lost his breath, his face turning pale with anger. “Dad, it’s my fault,” Olivia said softly, steadying
Chapter 60 Steven got up and planted himself right in front of Charlotte, his face tight with annoyance. “The principal says a famous professor recommended you. How would you even know someone like that? You’ve been living out in the sticks for years.” He started pacing, his words coming sharper.
Chapter 59 “Charlotte, seriously, don’t push it,” Bald Lee nearly spat, grinding his teeth so hard it looked painful. Charlotte’s smile was icy. “Mr. Lee, you’re supposed to be a great teacher. Can’t you even manage a real apology?” A ripple of laughter broke out around them. He deserved it,
Chapter 58 She really was sharp, sharper than anyone had expected. “Yeah, that must be it,” Shirley said quickly, nodding like her life depended on it. Bald Lee looked Charlotte up and down, not quite convinced, his face darkening. “Cut the tricks. If you can’t find the snake—” “Snake!” Before
