Carter said if you want a divorce , you have to get through tonights event .
Otherwise youll face the Consequences .
1 froze .
Right .
How could I have forgotten ? Charles was now the rising elite of London .
And I ? I was nothing but a woman whose real identity couldnt even see the light of day .
I let out a bitter laugh .
Let go Ill walk by myself .
Jim was determined to humiliate me .
Not only did he refuse to release me , but he also quickened his pace .
I was dragged along , stumbling.drawing even more ridicule .
By the time I was pushed in front of Charles , Jim had reverted to his obedient demeanor .
Charless cold gaze swept over me .
What happened ? I glared at him , hatred seething in my eyes .
Why are you pretending ? Isnt this exactly what you wanted to see ? His brows furrowed as if displeased .
Before he could respond , a pale arm slíd around his , clinging to him .
Charlotte Edwards , Im so sorry ! The one who threw juice at you was a fan of mine .
Olivia , dressed in an immaculate haute couture gown , pressed herself close to him .
She probably got upset seeing you wear something similar to mine .
But Im sure you wont mind , right , Charlotte Edwards ? Before , I would have fumed at her provocation .
But now , I just wanted to le ave .
Charles , I came because you asked .
I endured your humiliation .
You got what you wanted .
Can I leave now ? Without waiting for his response , I turned to go .
But someone blocked my path .
This is the famous dancer Charlotte Edwards ! Since youre here , why not perform before you leave ? I dont know the person in front of me , but its obvious they must be someone Charles brought here just to humiliate me .
Move .
I kept my face cold , my voice even colder .

Cet 2.6 % Chapter 5 Oh ? Quite the temper .
The person sized me up like I was merchandise .
Still think youre the rising star of the dance world ? Or have you not realized yet youve been blacklisted from the industry ? My breath caught , and a chill spread through my body .
Charles , is this true ? Charles swirled the wine in his glass , his gaze unfamiliar and merciless .
This is your punishment for what you did wrong .
I couldnt stop myself from pressing him .
What exactly did I do ? What was so unforgivable that you had to ruin my future.cut off all my paths ? Charles , answer me ! His lips pressed into a tight line , clearly displeased with my attitude .
You know very well what youve done .
Olivia laughed .
Charlotte Edwards , Im performing tonight .
Havent you been getting a lot of bad press lately ? Why not dance a piece too ? There are a lot of big shots here .
Who knows ? One of them might take an interest .
I fixed my gaze on Olivia , staring at her until her smile faltered .
She shrank behind Charles .
Charles , Charlotte Edwards is scary .
Charles patted her hand , his eyes locked onto mine .
Charlotte Edwards , didnt you want to cling to powerful people ? There are quite a few entertainment executives here tonight .
This is a golden opportunity .
Arent you going to seize it ? I sucked in a sharp breath , suddenly finding the man before me terrifyingly unfamiliar .
I remembered the year he first started his business .
His family was dirt poor , and he desperately needed funding without it , he would miss a once in a lifetime chance .
I went behind his back and danced in a nightclub to earn fast cash .
When Charles found out , he would rather sell his own blood than let me expose myself like that .
You know Im possessive .

Just the thought of other men looking at you drives me mad .
Back then , he loved me so much .
We spent our nights entwined in a tiny , moldy apartment , sharing even a single plum , taking turns biting into it with pure contentment .
And now ? Now , he was acting as if it meant nothing to him to push me toward other men .
My voice came out dry and hoarse .
Fine .
As you wish .
I pushed past the people blocking my way and headed toward a director I had once worked with .
Ah , Charlotte Edwards , why are you still limping ? Could it be that your injury is real ? Ignore her .
Shes faking it .

Cole3 2.9 % Chapter 5 Charless voice was filled with arrogant disdain , blending seamlessly with the mocking laughter around me .
It was a suffocating net that wrapped around me , tightening with every breath .
I forced myself forward and reached the director , but before I could greet him , he hurriedly stepped aside , avoiding me like the plague .
I stood frozen , realizing there was no point in begging anymore .
But I refused to accept this .
I had always been the hardest worker in the dance industry , staying low key and avoiding conflicts .
My reputation had been impeccable .
So many people had once sworn theyd give anything to collaborate with me .
I refused to believe that all my achievements could be erased just because of Charless words .
