Charlotte's POV I trembled when I heard the loud bang of Jack's bedroom door after he closed it with too much force because he was so angry with me. I wanted to call him to come back, but I felt so embarrassed about what I had done. I slowly walked back inside my room with shaking limbs. I hated myself for acting that way and saying those words to Jack, but I could no longer take them back. I hurt him, and I couldn't blame him if he left without saying goodbye to me. He was hurt and angry. I judged…

Jack's POV I couldn't believe my eyes that I would witness such a beautiful scene. I could see the happiness on Hunter's face as he looked at his sister, and I am sure he had already forgiven Charlotte for everything she had done to his wife. At this stage, I am sure he is willing to give his sister a second chance. I could feel my heart ached as I watched Charlotte cry. I knew they were tears of happiness, but I couldn't stop from feeling sentimental. "Jack, it is nice to see you here with my sister,"…

339 Misjudged Charlotte's POV After saying goodnight to Jack, I didn't dare to look back since I didn't want to look like a fool. I couldn't deny I was falling for Jack more every day, and I was afraid to throw myself at him and kiss those sweet lips of his and be wrapped in his strong arms. I went straight to my bed and collapsed on the soft mattress, sighing heavily. I should stop this craziness before I look pathetic in Jack's eyes. He stopped flirting with me ever since Cecily showed…

Jack's POV I could see the sadness in Charlotte's eyes; I love Cecily for her made-up stories about her having a thing for me. She is beautiful, and I am sure Charlotte bought her lies. But I hoped she was right; she made Hunter's sister jealous. I could play with Cecily's game to make sure Charlotte would be mine, but seeing her in pain made me feel uneasy. I never felt this happy for a long time because after Madeline got married, I was miserable. I made Gina my girlfriend to be closer to…

337 On The Right Track Charlotte's POV I found it hard to sleep since I felt excited about my own business, but I knew it was because of Jack. He will be coming tomorrow, and he will be staying here in the manor with me. I don't have any idea what I am doing, but I am sure Cecily would help me. The sound of my alarm clock woke me up, and I felt too tired to get up because of my lack of sleep, but I didn't want Jack to find me sleeping when he arrived. I want to show him that I am ready to start…

336 Something Stupid Jack's POV Cecily was waiting for me at the front porch, and I was smiling from ear to ear as I walked towards her. "It felt like we are having a celebration," she said when she noticed the wine in my hand. "Of course, it is a beautiful night to celebrate, thanks to you," I responded as we strode inside the house and headed straight to the living room. "I will get the wine glass," Cecily said, and I nodded my head before I sat down on the sofa. "So, what can you…

335 No Choice Charlotte's POV I felt so conscious the entire time we were eating our dinner since I could feel Jack's eyes were on me. And his presence alone made me have butterflies in my stomach. I was aware of how handsome and hot Jack was, and I couldn't deny it. I felt so happy that he was the one who showed up, but I didn't want him to know about how I felt. I wanted to start my own business so much that I had to lower my pride to realize my dream, even if I had to deal with the smoking…

334 Finally Jack's POV Telling Charlotte I was leaving came out unexpectedly. Maybe I wanted her to feel something, but she didn't ask me to stay. I felt so bad that when I came home to Cecily's house, I went straight to my room after I said good night to her. The following day, I was waiting for something to happen. Cecily promised me she would help me, and I don't know if we can make it work. But after being impatient, something finally happened. Cecily texted me and told me everything she…

Charlotte's POV "So, are you okay with my idea?" Cecily asked. "Yes, of course, I haven't thought about it; you are a genius, Cel. I really loved it," I responded, then my face fell. "What is wrong?" She asked when she noticed the expression on my face. "Nothing, it is just if I will proceed with our plan. I have to call my brother and ask his permission." I answered. "Come on, Char. Hunter is your brother, and you told me he is a good person; you couldn't stop being envious of him." She…

Charlotte's POV "You don't need to help me change my bed sheets, Cecily. I can do this," I said as she pulled the bedsheets from my bed. "I promised to help you with everything," she responded, and I watched her with wide eyes, and I didn't tell her I felt glad she was helping me. "After this, I will cook lunch. I brought some groceries that you might need, Charlotte," she added, and I felt more guilty that there was nothing I could offer her. "You don't need to do it. I still have food on the…
