Chapter 7 The papers fluttered to the ground .
Someone picked one up and glanced at it .
This actually looks legit … Charles , is this real ? Charless voice was indifferent .
Just a cheap old trick .
He was convinced that I was merely throwing a tantrum .
He was certain I wouldnt leave .
All my struggles , my desperate cries , were nothing but petty dramatics in his eyes .
Even now , the way he looked at me held nothing but thinly veiled mockery .
Charlotte Edwards , I suggest you stop before you make a fool of yourself .
A deep exhaustion crept over me .
When a flower withers , even if it blooms again , its no longer the same flower .
People are no different .
I turned to leave .
Crash- The sound of a glass shattering rang out behind me .
Charlotte Edwards , think carefully once you step out of here , who would want you ? Who would even dare to ? I wasnt sure what my face looked like at that moment , but judging by the sudden silence in the crowd , it must have been awful .
My vision blurred .
Charless figure twisted into a monstrous shadow before my eyes .
Once again , I felt my soul plummeting into the abyss .
The last time , Charles had caught me .
This time , he was the one who pushed me in .
I bit down on my lip so hard that the taste of blood filled my mouth .
Oh , Charles , look , isnt this the glass Charlotte Edwards drank from ? But … it doesnt smell like alcohol .

Cod 4.0 % Chapter 7 The liquor had been poured in front of Charles Olivins necusation was an obvious lie Yet.Charles believed her .
Like he had finally found an excuse , he stepped forward and grabbed my wrist .
Charlotte Edwards , youve really disappointed me .
Apologize to Olivia .
Ilis voice was cold and impatient The alcohol was wreaking havoc on my system .
My vision split into countless overlapping images .
I struggled to move , the only thought left in my mind escape , But Charles wouldnt let me go .
Pain shot through my forearm .
Compared to his strength , my resistance was laughable .
I let out a gasp.and Charless grip only tightened .
You think Ill fall for your little tricks again ? Im telling you , tonight , youre going on that stage whether you like it or not .
Olivia giggled .
Charles , my performance requires big movements .

Charlotte Edwardss dress is too long , it might get in the way … If shes not changing.maybe we should just cut off half of it ? Charles hesitated only for a moment .
Fine .
Hold her down ! Hands reached out toward me from all directions .
I was terrified .
I wanted to scream , to fight back , but at this moment , I was nothing more than a fish out of water desperately thrashing , powerless against the inevitable .
No- ! I screamed in my mind .
Ah ! A sharp cry rang out .
What the hell ?! Who the f * ck- One by one , the curses turned into gasps .
Suddenly , my body felt light .

Cold Chapter 7 Then , I fell into the embrace of someone with a faint scent of sandalwood .
I struggled to lift my eyelids .
In the haze of my vision , I barely caught sight of a cuff adorned with diamond studs .
Which blind fool dares to touch my- The man who had been holding me down turned , furious only to meet a pair of cold , pitch black eyes .
The rest of his words died in his throat .
The man holding me was at least 63 tall , exuding an aura of pure dominance .
His face was striking razor sharp brows slanting into his temples , long lashes casting deep shadows over his icy gaze .
His lips were pressed into a thin line , his entire demeanor radiating an unapproachable chill .
His features were undeniably handsome , but the air around him was dark and suffocating , keeping everyone at a wary distance .
But the first thing Charles noticed wasnt his presence it was his status .
Behind the man stood a full circle of black suited bodyguards , each one tall, imposing , and leagues above your average security personnel .
And standing by the mans right side was an elderly figure Charles recognized Elder Adams .
The same Elder Adams whom he had tried countless times to meet , only to be turned away .
The old man , with his head of silver hair ,stood slightly hunched over , gripping his cane with both hands in an unmistakably submissive posture .
Charles had never seen him bow to anyone before .
A bad feeling crept into his chest as he looked at the man holding me .
His voice carried a cautious edge .
This gentleman … may I ask your name ? The man , towering over Charles , looked down at him with thinly veiled disdain .
A group of people ganging up to bully a woman arent you ashamed ? Charles kept his face neutral .
This is a misunderstanding .
She asked to stay and perform .
After all , this is a rare opportunity to gain fame .
The mans lips curled into a mocking smile .
A lie so bad , even the liar himself wouldnt believe it .
