The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 725

Charlotte was absentmindedly chewing on her candy, bored and staring into space, when she suddenly noticed a tall, lean figure down on the street. It was the same guy she had seen outside the competition venue earlier. Everything about him—his height, his vibe—reminded her so much of Anthony, except for his face.

She swallowed the last of her chocolate and spoke into her phone, “I’m hanging up.”

“Where are you going?” Newell’s tone turned cold.

Their calls never lasted longer than five minutes. As her mentor, he didn’t hold much weight in her eyes.

“Checking up on someone,” Charlotte replied with a flat voice, then ended the call without waiting for a response.

Checking up on someone?

Newell stared at his phone, then glanced at the person next to him. “What does she mean, checking up on someone?”

His subordinate coughed, trying to explain, “Usually, it means when a couple isn’t together and one calls the other to see what they’re up to.”

A couple?

Hearing that, Newell’s face darkened even more. He muttered, “Seems like she really likes Anthony.”

The subordinate grinned. “If Nine’s into a guy, he has to be special.”

Special? Wasn’t it just because he was rich? Newell was wealthy too, so why wasn’t Charlotte interested in him?

He frowned, his voice icy. “Transfer two hundred million to Charlotte’s institute. Keep digging into Anthony.”

He had always thought Anthony was just some pretty face with money. But if Charlotte was this into him, he obviously wasn’t that simple.

Charlotte didn’t waste a second after hanging up on Newell. She immediately called Anthony.
