Chapter 243 

 “Lottie,” Zac said, his toneced with bitterness, “I told you–men are all the same. Don’t go thinking Sean Jasper is any better than me. Do you believe me now?”

 Charlotte responded tly, “Oh.”

 “I saw the news about your broken engagement. So it’s over between you and him, right? That means you’re single now. Can I pursue you?”

 “No.”

 Charlotte stood up. She had no intention of staying to listen to Zac’s nonsense.

 As she turned to leave, Zac reached out and grabbed her wrist. But before he could get a word out, Charlotte twisted his arm with a swift move, his wrist cracking audibly under the pressure. 

 “Ah-!” Zac cried out, instinctively recoiling in pain.

 She flung his hand away, eyes cold with unmistakable disgust.

 “Zac Gibson, I thought I made myself clearst time. Stop bothering me. Don’t you understand English?”

 Zac looked genuinely hurt, yet his eyes stayed locked on her with infatuation.

 “Lottie, I can’t. I can’t let you go.” 

 “You make me sick,” she snapped.

 With that, she turned and walked away without looking back.

 Zac chased after her. 

 “Sean was probably sleeping with that actress while he was still with you! The moment you broke off the engagement, their rumors blew up all over the inte. Is that why you left him–because you found out he cheated?”

 Charlotte’s lips pressed into a thin line. Her face was cold as ice. She didn’t respond. She just walked faster.

 Zac followed relentlessly.

 “Did you see tonight’s entertainment g? Sean and that actress walked the red carpet together. It’s official, Lottie. They’re public now. You need to give up on

 him.”

 At the word “official,” Charlotte’s steps faltered.

 Zac saw her pause and smirked.

 “Lottie, I–”

 “Leave.”

 “Lottie, don’t shut me out. I know you’re hur-”

 “! said leave!” 

 At the hotel lobby, Charlotte strode toward the security desk. 

 “Excuse me. I’m a guest here. This man is harassing me. Can you please help?” 

 “Lottie, please, just let me expl-” Zac started to follow, but one of the security guards quickly stepped in and held him back

 “Sir, I need you to stop harassing this woman.‘

 Zac’s face turned red with anger.

 ??

 “Harassing? She’s my girlfriend! We’re just having a fight. Let go of me!” 

 The guard turned to Charlotte, seeking confirmation.

 Her face was cold andposed. 

 Tm not his girlfriend.”

 Without another word, she turned and walked away.

 Behind her, Zac kept calling out, “Lottie! Don’t go, Lottle–please!” 

 The security guard held firm.

 “Sir, I’m going to have to ask you to stop. You’re disturbing our guests.” “Let go of me! What the hell-”

 “Sir, if you continue, we’ll have to call the police.”

 “I’m not harassing her! I told you, she’s my girlfriend!”

 Back in her hotel room, Charlotte closed the door behind her and leaned against it, staring nkly at the floor. After a long pause, she numbly pulled out her phone and opened the trending topics on Twitter.

 Right at the top was a photo of Sean and Lucinda together.

 ck Her phone hit the floor.

 The evening breeze swept in through the open window, rustling the sheer white curtains.

 Charlotte stood frozen under the warm glow of the lights, as if struck by lightning.

 In an instant, her blood turned to ice. All color drained from her face.
