The Betrayed Heiress Is Now the CEO’s Obsession novel Chapter 269

Chapter 269

John let out a cold laugh. “And who else could his woman be If not you?”

Charlotte snapped, “You seriously don’t see all the tabloid headlines? He’s been flaunting his relationship with some actress all over the media. Are you blind? Why are you coming after me?

There was a pause before John’s voice turned even colder. “You really don’t know? Sean only broke off the engagement to keep you out of this mess.

Charlotte scoffed. “Wow, that’s generous of him. He’s already gone public with that actress, and you’re still here wasting your time on me?”

A smirk tugged at John’s lips, and he let out a soft chuckle, “Miss Wiley, are you really that clueless, or are you just pretending?

COUSI

Charlotte froze, her eyes widening in disbelief. “What did you just say?”

That actress? She’s his

John’s voice was laced with mocking disdain. “I don’t know whether to compliment your acting skills or applaud : Sean Jasper for shielding you so well.”

Contusion clouded Charlotte’s face. “What are you talking about?”

John had come on Joseph’s orders to absct Charlotte With her tied up, injured, and completely cut off from the outside world, escape was impossible. And once she landed in Joseph’s hands, she wasn’t likely to make it out alive.

Since she was as good as dead, John figured there was no harm in telling her the truth.

“You really didn’t know, huh?” he said. “Alter you almost got yourself killed just by being with Sean, and your dad nearly died because of it too, Sen decided to end things. He figured if you stayed with him, you’d be next. So, be staged a falte scandal with that actress and broke up with you.”

John wasn’t lying. In fact, even he and Joseph had fallen for it at first. They genuinely believed Sen had moved on. After all, a spoiled heir dating a starlet was nothing unusual.

Not long ago, Chester slipped up while running an errand for Joseph and got caught by Sean’s men. The police stepped in and arrested him, and with the Jasper family’s backing, they also raided the dozens of companies under Chester’s control.

Chester now faced multiple charges and had been formally arrested. It was only a quatter of time before he received a heavy sentence–possibly life, maybe even the death penalty.
