Chapter 35

Charlotte frowned. “No.”

Zac’s voice turned oddly still. “Let’s not fight, okay? I’ve been thinking about you these past few days. I was wrong that night. I shouldn’t have said those things and upset you!

“It’s fine,” Charlotte said, her tone indifferent. “It doesn’t matter anymore. We’ve already broken up.”

“Broken up?” His voice went ice–cold. “I never agreed to that.”

Charlotte remained unmoved. “Breaking up isn’t a divorce. I don’t need your permission.” Her voice was firm, emotionless. “Zac, don’t contact me again.”

She hung up and immediately blocked his number.

Charlotte shifted her focus back to work

She wanted to build something for herself,

She could start her own firm, but without a strong reputation, it would be difficult to attract high–profile cases.

She decided to gain experience first. She planned to work at a top–tier law firm, establish her name, and then branch out on her own.

When she told Sean about her plan, he fully supported her.

Charlotte thought for a moment before nodding. “Alright, I’ll send in my résumé

Meanwhile, Zac stared blankly at his phone.

Charlotte actually hung up on him.

The door suddenly opened.

“Zac, dinner’s ready.” Wendy’s voice was soft,

Without thinking, Zac grabbed her and pinned her beneath him.

The tension Ignited instantly–like a match to dry kindling.

But just as things reached their peak, Zac, lost in the heat of the moment, murmured hoarsely, “Charlotte… my Charlotte… I miss you so much

Beneath him, Wendy froze.

Her body went rigid, her Jace drained of color.

The next night, Mia organized a small gathering to celebrate Charlotte’s return to Jersey City.

At a sleek bar, the three women sat in a cozy booth, sipping their drinks.
