Charlotte’s POVAfter our wet sex, I woke up feeling tired, and Logan was hugging me like a precious stone. I couldn't move. I reached for his arm and started to pull away, but he grabbed hold of me and held me close, asking, "Where are you going?" "Go back to sleep." Afterward, he shut his eyes once more, and I got up, put on my dress, and gathered my things from the side table. Before I left the Villa that night, I planted a kiss on his forehead. I headed for the garage, worried that he'd be able to watch my movements if I used the car he'd undoubtedly installed a tracker in so I stepped back, and used the backyard for an escape so that no one would see me living tonight.I was walking in the street, trying to contact Liam. Luckily, he answered my call, and I said, "Please, come and get me; I don't have a car. I don't use the car in the Villa because I know Logan has already put a tracker on in any car in the Villa." Liam replied, "So, where are you right now? Can you go to the mi

Charlotte’s POVLuca was shocked and stood up with a shocked look on his face. He thought I didn't know anything, so this time he wasn't ready for all of my kicks and punches. After taking a long breath, he blankly stared at me, and he had no defense against my strikes.Now, bruises covered his face, and blood flowed freely from his nostrils. His nose was bleeding, yet he stood there in his expensive suit and roared, "You dare to take the position away from me?! WHY?!" I smirked at him, “Because you don’t deserve it.” He sarcastically asked, “And who deserved it, YOU?” I nod my head, “Yes.” He drew his gun from his pocket and pointed it at me with his eyes shrieking in fury, “But before you can do that, you have to escape from my bullet!” Jokingly, I asked him, "Luca, are you only good with guns? You're pointing your gun at me like I'm going to die right now? Seriously? You don't even have the balls to fight a woman on stage! Well, look, Someone shot me twice in the chest a year

Charlotte’s POV“Elliot?!” I remembered that he was the person who followed me up to the 104th floor a year ago and tried to get me to stop looking for more proof of everything. After all, how could I stop if that's how my dad died? Exactly how my mother died fourteen years ago. Then I softly shook my head and wiped the tears that were running down my face. "Why are you doing this to me?!" "Why do you ask me a question to which you already know the answer?" Elliot asked. Then he pulled out his gun and smiled at me, saying, "I think you need to sleep." He then hit me on the forehead with the gun, which numbed my whole body, and I passed out right away. In the dark, empty room where I woke up, my body was tied to a chair, and my mouth was taped back on. Fear and worry made me cry. I thought that if I didn't get away soon, it might be the end of me. I looked up when I realized there was no other way out of this empty room. Elliot opened the door and turned on the light. He smiled at

Charlotte’s POV “I…I was scared.” Casey said while shaking her head, trying to walk away from the scene but Logan stopped her. “You can’t go out without telling me the reason why you have to do this with me, and with your best friend.” Casey answered, “She’s not my best friend anymore.” I felt speechless as she said that and then she stepped back, and walked away from us. Liam sighed, “Just leave her alone, let's focus on the real case here. So who was the one who kidnapped you, Charlotte?” "Liam, why do you ask so many questions? I'm now on my payback pace, and you, and even Logan, can't stop me." I gave them the stink eye. "Charlotte, don't forget that we are a team here!" Liam sighed. "Angel also needs justice for her parents too, and not just you!” I bit my bottom lip as I thought about the child, who is Arman's daughter. I saw how she begged for help and tried to save her dad. “So tell me, who was the person who kidnapped you?” "Liam, don't pressure my wife so much,

Charlotte’s POV“Are you serious about this, Charlotte?” Casey asked under her breath while she’s breathing heavily, thinking about the DNA test result I’ve got. I raised my hand and nodded, “Yes! Do you think I don’t know about Zack’s father?” She stepped back.“That’s why you cared a lot Cedric because you still want him. But because Logan has more wealth and connections, you prefer Logan so that your family will crawl back into high status again.” I smiled at her.She laughed, and tried to change the topic. “Don’t forget that you used my grandma’s money for your madness! Where did you take her one hundred million dollars?” I laughed and replied, "It's mine now, so don't worry about it." "Anyways, your mom was an adopted daughter, so you are not really my grandmother's granddaughter," I continued with a sneer. Her eyes flared with anger that she wants to hurt me right now. “Oh my god…” she put her hand on her mouth. There's nothing more I want to say to you, but I guess you nee
