"Help us! Anybody, please come here! Someone out of their mind is vandalizing our car." Charlotte continued to scream for help as Aldrich smashed rocks against Jake's windshield, making the sound of shattering glass loud and frightening Charlotte.Jake tried to hit Aldrich, but Aldrich dodged and was much more potent than expected. Quickly, Aldrich counterattacked Jake. Aldrich twisted Jake's arm, pulled it, and slammed Jake's body to the ground.Jake winced in pain as his back hit the floor with the rocks on it. "Damn it! Damn, my back hurts like hell."Not letting Jake continue to babble, Aldrich returned the attack to the man by stomping on Jake's foot, causing the man to cry out in pain. Jake tried to get up and move his legs to make Aldrich fall, but unfortunately, he was already in so much pain that he could not sit up."Hey, let go of him, damn it!" Charlotte tried to help Jake by beating on Aldrich's arm, but Aldrich didn't budge.Charlotte panicked as she saw her lover wincin

"Daddy, please do something to free Jake." Charlotte looked at Berthan with tears in her eyes.Berthan rubbed his face roughly. "Are you out of your mind? He committed fraud and embezzled a large sum of money. The punishment will definitely be severe. We can't do anything if he has to go to jail for a long time."Charlotte cried even more hysterically at the thought of Jake's unfortunate fate in prison. Charlotte let go of her mother's embrace and fell at her father's feet. "Please, Daddy. Please do something so that Jake can be free. If he ends up in jail, what will happen to me? I'll be the target of others for failing to get married. Won't the family's name be ruined even more if that happens?"Claire embraced Charlotte's body again while looking at her husband with a sad gaze. "Please help her. It's all too late anyway. Didn't you think about how your daughter would feel if everyone gossiped about her? Think about it carefully."Berthan sat on the sofa. His whole body felt weak. H

"I heard that the Ledger family has a dark secret. If we can find that information, we can bring down the Ledger family." One of them looked enthusiastic about finding out the information."Yes, we should be able to bring down the Ledger family. I'm sure that they're hiding something, just like the case of their future son-in-law yesterday. My hunch is that it's true, not just a misunderstanding." Another one agreed, linking it to Jake's case some time ago."But besides his dark secret of having an illegitimate child, what else is he hiding?"I don't know, but if we find out, it will certainly be a threat to him."All of them who were there chuckled at this.Aldrich walked away when the discussion about Ledger's family from the two people had changed to another topic. He thought about the rumors that the two people were talking about. Aldrich reached into his pants pocket and took out a cell phone. He dialed Jose's number."Can I help you, Master?" asked Jose from the other side after

Madam Estelle raised her hand, inviting Selena to step out. "Come, Miss."Selena took a deep breath, trying to reduce her nervousness. She was accompanied by Madam Estelle as she ambled past the neatly lined-up servants to the exit of the building. Selena was even more surprised when Madam Estelle brought her to a stop right in front of a long, luxurious car.A man dressed in black opened the limousine door while bowing his head respectfully. Madam Estelle raised her hand, inviting Selena to enter the limousine. "Please, Miss."Selena climbed into the limousine, followed by Madam Estelle. They sat next to each other. The luxury car drove off, followed by dozens of other luxury cars from behind, looking like a royal carriage. Selena glanced back. Dozens of luxury cars were lined up neatly behind the limousine.Madam Estelle smiled at the look on Selena's face, which clearly implied confusion. "Miss, you must be very confused by all this. Everything was prepared in such a way by Mr Aldr

Jake and Charlotte's wedding was a little less festive after the lunchtime ceremony. Jake's extended family and business partners were the only guests in the room. The guests had left by late afternoon, and the wedding was over. There was nothing special about their wedding. Charlotte looked glum and no longer excited when she discovered Selena's wedding was more lavish than hers. She felt defeated.Charlotte's party ended in the afternoon. She and Jake had booked a room at the hotel, so they went straight to the hotel room after the event. Meanwhile, Berthannn and Claire went home. Charlotte didn't say a word. Her demeanour suddenly changed to silence.Jake had been watching her since the drive over. They got out of the car and entered the three-star hotel. A simple hotel that needed to match Charlotte's expectations. Jake pressed the elevator button and went inside, followed by Charlotte. "Why have you been so quiet since noon?
