Chapter 51 I Can Give You What He Can
Charlotte changed her clothes and headed out.
Before leaving, she glanced at the study.
Frederick was still working. She said softly, "I'll be back before ten-thirty."
Such a simple statement made Frederick sigh. Having someone else in the house really made a difference.
There were some constraints and inconveniences, but he felt good so far. Charlotte wasn't clingy but was gentle. She cooked great meals and kept the place clean. It was almost like a...
Frederick halted his thoughts.
He simply nodded.
Charlotte left, planning to catch a cab at the apartment complex entrance. Being in the city center, it should be easy to get a cab.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped out, a black sports car blocked her path.
In the fierce night wind, Ethan got out of the car.
Charlotte's heart trembled when she saw him. Deep down, she was afraid of being alone with him, especially given his intimidating expression at the moment.
She tried hard to stay calm.
Ethan slowly approached her. He didn't touch her but spoke in a mocking tone, "I underestimated you. You actually managed to seduce Frederick! Do you really think you and Frederick have a future? Do you know about his past? If you did, you wouldn't be so overconfident."
Charlotte gave a faint smile.
She retorted, "What does this have to do with you?" Charlotte wasn't stupid; she had guessed that Frederick had someone in his heart.
Her indifferent attitude caught Ethan's breath. He couldn't help but ask, "You don't care? Are you willing to play along with him? Charlotte, what else can he give you besides wanting to sleep with you?"
"And you?" Charlotte lowered her eyes and sneered. "Ethan, you're just like him."
She didn't want to get entangled with him. She pushed past him and walked towards the street.
Ethan suddenly grabbed her hand. Charlotte couldn't break free. He stared at her with a dark expression. "Whatever he can give, I can give. Whatever he can't give, I can give!"
At this moment, the man's pride overcame everything. He even thought that if Charlotte was willing to be with him for a few years, he might divorce and then marry her.
Charlotte felt utterly disgusted.
She spoke in a low voice, "Let me go, or I'll call for help! Ethan, you don't want to make a scene and affect your perfect marriage, do you?"
Ethan gritted his teeth and let her go.
Charlotte walked straight to the road, hailed a cab, and quickly left.
Ethan watched her leave, then punched the car roof in frustration.
In the distance, Frederick stood holding two small boxes, thoughtfully watching the scene.
Just after Charlotte left, he remembered the condoms he had left in the car. He didn't expect to see such a dramatic scene when he came down to get them.
Frederick sneered, took out his phone, and called Cherie. "Check the audit records of the Cooper Group for the past few years and have them on my desk by tomorrow morning."
On the other hand, Cherie was stunned. The Cooper Group was the company of the Cooper family, and they were Frederick's future in-laws. Was it appropriate for him to investigate them?
Cherie, having been through a lot, quickly realized this must be for Charlotte.
A man targeting another man was clearly out of jealousy!
Charlotte returned right at ten-thirty.
Frederick seemed to have finished his work. He was holding a glass of red wine, leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window, lost in thought.
Charlotte opened the door and came in, but he didn't turn around. She stood at the door for a moment, biting her lip in thought.
She didn't know how others pleased men, but she knew he liked her body and wanted this kind of relationship. So, she thickened her skin and approached him, gently hugging him from behind. "Are you done with your work?"
