Monte did not get angry upon hearing that. Instead, he got interested. “Are you jealous?”
Charity’s lips twitched. She was a little disgusted.
“Babe…” Monte suddenly approached her. His lips stopped near her ears. He called her softly with a husky and low voice.
charity instinctively retreated and looked at Monte vigilantly.
Monte laughed, and there appeared to be ripples in his eyes. “Babe, you seem to have become very different from before. You were like a little lamb back then. Having said that, you’re charming now.”
“President Patterson, considering that you already have a fiancee, it’s inappropriate for you to say such things,” charity reminded with a long face. “Are you planning to make me your lover? I didn’t expect that you’d be interested in backsliding.”
“I backslide for a reason.” Monte said lovingly, “To me, you’re unique because you gave me your first. Up until now, my memory is still vivid. Babe, I heard that Chester forced himself on you. In fact, I feel quite guilty. I shouldn’t have brought you into the entertainment industry back then.”
As he was speaking, he stretched out his hand to touch her earlobe.
Charity retreated nimbly. Monte’s hand was hanging in the air. He sighed lightly and said desolately, “Are you still angry with me? Actually, I had no choice but to break up with you. Before this, you kept forcing me. Plus, the gap between our identities was huge, so my parents didn’t approve of US being together. Babe, can you forgive me?”
“What about the period during which I attempted suicide?” charity asked coldly. ” When I attempted suicide, I just wanted you to come and visit me. How did you treat me then?”
Monte was dumbfounded for two seconds before he answered, “I thought you attempted suicide with the intention of threatening me. When I broke up with others in the past, there were also women who attempted suicide, but they were all just eyeing my money. I know you’re different from them. You truly care about me.”
Charity bit her lip. “You’re so used to saying sweet words. You’re still the same as before.”
“Babe…” Monte’s eyes were filled with sweetness. He extended his hand and wanted to hug her.
A man’s deep voice that contained laughter suddenly sounded from behind. “Excuse me, am I interrupting the two of you?” It was a familiar voice…
Monte froze. Charity lifted her head and looked behind Monte. Then, she was stunned.
She almost could not recognize the man.
Chester’s hair was very short, and it was similar to a crew cut. He was wearing a black suit and a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, which made him look less gentlemanly and elegant.
Chester was rather tanned now, exuding a sense of evilness and wildness.
Charity suddenly remembered that Chester had just gotten out of jail.
After getting out of jail, he came to join the charity event instead of working overtime in the office. This was a little… strange. “So, it’s you, President Jewell.” Monte soon pulled himself together. If this had happened back then, he would have feared Chester. Now, Jewell Corporation was clearly being suppressed, so it was not easy for Chester to cause him trouble. “You got out just like that. I never thought that three months would pass so quickly.”
“Yeah. I didn’t expect to see this once I came out.”
Chester’s lips curled into an inviting smile. He slowly walked up to the two of them. ” Young Master Patterson, you looked quite lovely when you said those sweet words. I wonder if you said such things to Young Lady Tanner too. Do you want me to ask her?”
Monte’s expression shifted a little. ” President Jewell, you’d better manage your company’s affairs well first. Eliza, are you lost? You don’t know how to go back to your seat, huh? Let me send you back.”
Chester was such a pervert. Monte did not want Eliza and him to be together as troublesome things might happen.
“It’s alright. I’ll personally have someone send Miss Robbins back.” Chester grinned as he gazed at Eliza. His gaze was dangerous yet profound. “We’re old friends.”
Monte frowned as a sign of warning. ” Chester, what are you trying to do?”
“Eliza, you’re clever, huh?” Chester mocked. “I left for only a couple of months, yet you’ve promptly gotten back with your ex.”
“What does it have to do with you?” A nonchalant look washed over Charity’s face. She did not confess to her relationship with Monte, and neither did she deny it.
With this point, a trace of mystery crept up Monte’s mind.
“Eliza, let’s go.” Monte gently put his hand on Charity’s shoulder.
“Young Master Patterson, it seems that you want me to give the Tanner family a call.”
Chester took out his phone with a grin. ” Coincidentally, I’m quite close with the head of the Tanner family. You’re flirting with other women behind their daughter’s back. Tsk, do you think you can maintain your marriage?”
A hint of anger flashed across Monte’s eyes.
Nevertheless, he could not do anything about it. If the head of the Tanner family called his father, he would definitely be criticized severely. This would even cause tension between the Tanner and Patterson families.
“Young Master Patterson, you may leave first.” Charity moved away his hand that was on her shoulder. “There are many cameras here. Given that President Jewell has just gotten out of jail, I believe he won’t dare to do anything to me.”
“Alright.” Monte was immediately given an out. However, he cast a warning glance at Chester before leaving. “President Jewell, our hotel isn’t a place where you can act unscrupulously. If something happens to Eliza here today, I’ll certainly cooperate with the police in the investigation if they come and look for me.”
With that, he left and walked away.
Chester disdainfully watched Monte leave. Then, he let out a sarcastic laugh. “Eliza, is this the man you’ve never been able to get over? He’s so-so. Tsk. I’m your enemy, yet he left you here just like that. Even his last warning was that he would cooperate with the police in the investigation. How ridiculous.”
“Is it ridiculous? I don’t think so.” Charity’s gaze was calm.
Seeing this, Chester stopped smiling. A sharp and playful look crossed his dark eyes. “So, Monte has become your new target after you took revenge against me, huh?”
“…I have no idea what you’re saying,” Charity said.
“Stop denying it.” Chester slowly strode toward her, and he could smell her feminine scent.
He suddenly noticed that the woman in front of her had cut her hair short. He had always disliked women with short hair. However, Charity was dressed up glamorously tonight, looking beautiful. She had white teeth and crimson lips. Her cold eyes with heavy makeup made her look bewitching.
A gleam flashed across his eyes before he said with a smile, “Look at yourself. You’re dressed up glamorously. It obviously means that you’re well prepared. Having dealt with you a few times, I believe that you’re not the kind who’ll backslide. But it’s a fact that Monte played with your feelings previously. You’ll definitely take revenge on him because of this. It’s impossible that you’ve forgiven him. It’s even more so impossible for you to become his lover.”
An idea crossed his mind.
Monte did not even deserve to have Eliza.
Despite the fact that Chester hated Eliza right now, it was undeniable that he admired her.
Charity lifted her head and met the man’s dark eyes. She could not help but sigh secretly. Although she resented Chester, she must admit that he understood her very well.
Nevertheless, she could not admit certain things.
“President Jewell, thank you for holding me with high regard. But I’m just a woman. I have emotions, and there are things I can’t get over.”
After Charity finished speaking, her eyes swept over Chester. “It looks like you lived quite well in prison in the last three months, President Jewell. You look a lot sturdier.”
“Right. I toiled hard every day, and I’ve never had such an experience in my life. Thank you for allowing me to have such an unforgettable experience,” Chester said with a discreet smile. “But I missed you every day when I was in prison. I came to meet you eagerly on the first day I was released from prison.”
“Really? Sadly, I didn’t miss you at all.” Charity’s calm eyes were beaming. “Over the last three months, I’ve been leading a productive life, thanks to you. President Jewell, your generous donation worth one billion dollars has allowed me to help many people.”
“Well…” Chester, who was lost in thought, gave an evil laugh. “It seems like forcing you to be my woman was worthwhile, why don’t I fool around with you for some time, and you send me to jail again? I’ll give you another one billion dollars, and this will help even more people. Is that okay?
Anyway, since you enjoy doing charity, sacrificing your body for that isn’t too bad.”
“It sounds pretty enticing…”
Charity was not offended. Instead, she raised her brows. “But if I wish to help other people, I’m not short of that measly one billion dollars either.”
“What do you mean?” Chester was stunned, and numerous thoughts filled his mind.
“Because I won’t need money anymore.” Charity laughed. “I’ve invested in a lucrative business. If it does well, I’ll get over ten billion dollars every year. Frankly, I’m not interested in that miserly amount of money from you.”
“Over ten billion dollars?” After observing her for a while, Chester realized that she was serious. That was when doubts began to spring up in his mind, “what lucrative business is that? It’s making me curious. Could Cate, Mireya, and you have invested in something together?”
Even so, he was astonished. No matter how brilliant Cate was, it was impossible for a new shareholder like her to make so much money.
After all, that was the rough amount of bonus the shareholders of Jewell Corporation received in the past years.
“Nope.” Charity smiled mysteriously. “I invested in the company mainly because the president is quite capable. He has a despicable character and will go to great lengths to achieve his aims. I believe that with such a president who helps the company to generate profits, I’ll be able to make a lot of money.”
? ?
The more Chester listened, the more dubious he was. “Did Shaun set up a new company, and Cate made you a shareholder of it?”
“It has nothing to do with them. I have connections too, you know?” Charity’s eyes were filled with playfulness.
Now more than ever, she was really looking forward to the moment Chester discovered the truth.
