Chapter 237
Joseph had been preparing to get revenge on the Jasper family ever s
Noah asked, “Did joseph come after her again?”
Sean’s gaze turned cold as he recounted the time Joseph had sent people to beant him and Charlotte down and how Desmond had been pushed down the stairs.
Noah’s expression changed. “He actually used heavy weapons? This is Jersey City! That unstic–how the hell did he dare?”
“He kept himself completely out of it. The police couldn’t trace anything back to him.”
*Then you need to be careful. A rabid dog like Joseph, once comered, will do anything.”
Noah let out a long sigh and gave Sean a pat on the shoulder. “Breaking up was probably the right choice. Still, it’s hard for both of you. You love each other, but you can’t be together.”
Sean lowered his eyes. A ripple stirred in his heart.
“Love each other, but can’t be together? No. This is just temporary,” Sean thought.
Once Joseph was taken care of, he was going to win Charlotte back–no matter what.
Back at the golf course, Galus edged closer to Charlotte.
Miss Riley, do you usually play golf?”
Charlotte took a small step away, putting distance between them, and replied politely, “A little, but I don’t play otten.”
Galus didn’t know her background. He assumed she was just an ordinary junior attorney scraping by on a modest monthly salary
To him, a few grand a month was pocket change, barely enough to cover a fancy meal.
He chuckled, a smug look on his face. “Makes sense. Even a basic set of golf gear probably costs you a month’s salary. Not to mention the greens tees and private coaching This club’s yearly membership alone runs over three million. For lawyers working this hard, it’s really not worth spending your eamings on a luxury like this.”
Charlotte pretended not to hear the condescension buried in his words and responded with a bright, easy smile. “You’re probably right.”
That radiant smile completely disarmed Gatus. He was already feeling light–headed from how pretty she looked.
He was used to flaunting his wealth. There was never a shortage of women around him–his wife at home, mistresses outside, and a long list of young women be had kept over the years.
She knew exactly what kind of man lie was “Join me for a game” was just the polite version. If she really said yes, she would be expected to do a lot more than play Cou
He actually thought lue could buy a woman’s body with a three–million–dollar membership. Judging by his age, ba definitely had a wife at home. “Shameless,” Charlotte silently remarked.
Cadotte didn’t show any of the contempt or as she felt side. She just smiled lightly and said, “Thank you, Mr, Lloyd, but I’m happy to play with you today. I really don’t have time outside of work!
Tiin, standing off to the side, was frantically signaling at her with his eyes.
Hirst, pretending not to care about his money, only to wait for the right moment to reel him in.
The kind people call a “gold digger.”
