"I know Isabelle invited you today to set us up, but she's just jealous offor getting a rich boyfriend. That's
why she wanted to separateand Lucas. If | actually did as she wished, I'd be the biggest fool in the world!"
| stood there in silence. Looking at her beautiful, yet cold, eyes, | couldn't help but let out a self-deprecating
smile.
What was | doing here? What did her safety have to do with me? My being there for her was completely
unnecessary.
"Why are you glaring at me? If you don't agree with what I'm saying, just take a look in the mirror! You'll see how
out of my league you are! Now, piss off!" With that, she pushedaway and slammed the door in my face.
| took a deep breath and walked away.
| went back to my room and sat on my bed. | felt so angry at our conversation that

| was cursing Charlotte in my head. If Lucas really did something to her, it was no longer my business.
But on second thought, even if she insulted me, she still didn't deserve to be treated like that.
| thought long and hard, and in the end, | couldn't help but call Mr. Zimmer.
Since he was the one who handled Charlotte's problems, it was best if he explained everything to Charlotte's
father himself.
At the stime, | asked him to not mention my involvement in the matter. | didn't want my background to be
exposed.
After the call, I lay on my bed, patiently waiting for things to unfold.
Around 15 minutes later, | heard intense knocking coming from the hallway,
followed by Charlotte's cries.
"Isabelle! Isabelle! Cout now!"
| opened my door and stood outside to have a look. | saw Charlotte in a tank top
and shorts, crying in front of Isabelle's room, barefoot.
"He lied to me! Lucas lied to me!"
Lucas cout from his room too, wearing only a pair of shorts, looking extremely panicked.
Isabelle was stunned. "What do you mean you were lied to?"
Charlotte sobbed, covering her mouth. "The person who helped my dad settle things with the Arnoult Group
wasn't Lucas. He lied tofrom the beginning! The president of the Business Association just called my dad!"
Listening to Charlotte, | sighed in relief. It looked like the deed was done.
Lucas walked up to Charlotte with a nervous expression. "Babe, it's a misunderstanding. My dad actually did help
you. Maybe... maybe someone was interpersonating the president? Calm down and we'll talk about it. "

This dude actually had no shame. He still wasn't telling the truth after being exposed like that?
"Stay away from me!"
Charlotte immediately hid behind Isabelle. "Lucas, stop trying to lie to me! The person who called my dad was
indeed the president of the Business Association. They spoke on Facetime, and my dad saw his face! My dad saw
him on television before."
Lucas approached Charlotte, and she screamed in fear. Matthew stepped out of the room and stood in front of
Lucas.
"Lucas, what are you doing? Keep your hands to yourself!"
Lucas looked offended. "Get lost! This is betweenand Charlotte. It has nothing to do with you!"
Out of nowhere, Lucas threw a punch at Matthew, then he grabbed onto Charlotte's wrist and dragged her back
into their room.
| hesitated over whether | should help. Too many times, my help wasn't appreciated, so | was feeling rather
reluctant.
