Charlotte, however, lowered her eyes and laughed out loud.In the light of Ben's gloomy eyes, she raised her lips into a bright smile and said, "You have to give me time to think about it, right?"Ben lost his concentration for a moment, almost blinded by her smile. He couldn't help swallowing hard and said a little eagerly, "How long do you need to think about it?""One night?" Charlotte tilted her head innocently and said, "One night to consider your offer isn't too much to ask, is it?"Ben smiled.

Ben listened and instantly came to his senses. Yes! He had almost forgotten that he still had quite a bit of leverage over Charlotte! Not to mention the fact that he had recorded their conversation this time. Just based on those photos of her hooking up with another man, it was enough for people to see her true colors clearly!He believed that if he sent them to Kingsley, Kingsley would no longer treasure and protect her. Ben sneered fiercely, vowing that he wouldn't let Charlotte get away with this. He found the contact information of Kingsley's staff and directly sent the photos he had received before, along with the recording of his conversation with Charlotte that afternoon.The recording wasn't sent in its entirety; he had cropped some parts of the conversation:"I can totally understand if you want to move up. As long as you follow me, your future will be absolutely bright!""You have to give me time to think about it, right

On this day, Charlotte vaguely overheard the crowd murmuring during intermission after rehearsal at the drama club."Is that true?""Rumor has it that he got his arms and legs broken. It's tragic. Even his house had a big fire, and all his family members except him were buried in that fire.""Geez! Don't the police care? Who is so powerful that they can do such a thing to him?""That goes without saying. Remember Zelda, who offended Charlotte before? I heard she broke her leg, and it's still not healed!""It's horrible. I didn't realize that she looks so soft and harmless, so easy to get along with, but whoever gets close to her has bad luck!""Hey! What are you all babbling about? Shut up!" Sherry's face reddened with anger as she spoke.Zelda and Ben, both of whom were in the drama club and with whom she had had conflicts, now all occurred accident. Charlotte couldn't help but wonder if this had anything to do with her.For exampl

Rehearsals for Romeo and Juliet had finally concluded, and the school's production had officially begun its run in the city. The performances had quickly created quite a buzz. As the lead characters, Charlotte and Kingsley naturally garnered a lot of attention.On this particular day, Charlotte had just finished her performance and was changing backstage to rest. Nearby, a staff member walked in and shouted, "Charlotte, someone is looking for you outside!" His tone carried a hint of excitement."Looking for me?" Charlotte was surprised. Who would be looking for her? Her heart was inexplicably uneasy. Could it be Chris? Had Diana told Chris everything about her and Kingsley? Charlotte's eyes trembled slightly at the thought, but she quickly shook her head, banishing the idea. No way, Diana wouldn't snitch.As Charlotte was lost in her thoughts, an exclamation came from outside, followed by a wave of gasps, as if something sig

In the airport lobby, Kingsley's sister Freya was waiting for her luggage. She was dressed in a black suit, sharp and straight, with her black hair neatly combed and a steely, cold gaze. Her eyes were deep and piercing, giving her an inviolable look. Her appearance exuded power and confidence, as if she could handle any situation with ease.The Livingston family's car was already waiting at the exit when Freya stepped out of the airport gate. She got into the car, and it slowly drove away from the airport. The car was a sleek black Maybach, its interior lined with luxurious leather and polished wood, reflecting the status and wealth of the Livingston family. Freya settled into the plush seat, her mind already racing with thoughts about the recent events that had brought her back.Suddenly, her phone rang. Freya picked it up. It was Carl.As Carl reported what happened recently about Kingsley to Freya, her tone became unusually cold and resolute. "I've returned. I'll h
