"Yachts too." Charlotte thought for a moment; it seemed like flying wasn’t something she needed to learn, right?
"Atlas Hallow, where exactly are you taking me for a vacation?" He still hadn’t told her their vacation destination. Charlotte had considered all the nearby places for short trips, but none seemed to particularly appeal to her. This was their first trip together, and she was genuinely excited.
"It’s a secret." The man’s deep and mysterious gaze settled on Charlotte’s face. A woman focused on her work is very attractive, especially when it’s his woman.
The morning was overwhelming with things to do, and because she slept the entire day yesterday, tasks had piled up.
At ten o’clock, there was a meeting, and she unexpectedly saw Ava Walker, whom she hadn’t seen for a long time.
The two were technically sisters-in-law, but their relationship seemed worse than that of strangers.
Actually, within the family’s corporate group, Atlas managed quite well, but some issues were unavoidable—family members holding key positions within the group.
Ava’s title sounded impressive, but she wasn’t really in charge of many things anymore. Atlas was gradually pushing Ava to the sidelines, but she still attended the year-end summary meeting as usual, and Amir Hallow would appear alongside her.
If she hadn’t seen him again, she would have almost forgotten Atlas had such a cousin. After all, her days had been quite eventful recently.
"Sister-in-law, long time no see." Amir, with his long almond-shaped eyes, greeted her with a smile.
One doesn’t strike a smiling face, and besides, it’s always Ava causing trouble; Amir has nothing to do with it.
So Charlotte smiled and said, "It has indeed been a long time..."
"Of course, now that you have Atlas backing you, you don’t even need to return to the Hallow Family home; this disrupts the rules. Just wait until Uncle comes back to see if you can still live outside." Ava spoke with a look full of resentment; naturally, her expression wasn’t pleasant.
"If you don’t speak, no one will think you’re mute." Amir turned back to glance at Ava, his attitude stiff, his words cold.
"Why shouldn’t I speak? And Amir, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to outside." Being reprimanded by Amir in front of Charlotte, Ava’s face turned almost green with anger. He actually sided with Charlotte—it was maddening.
Who is truly his legally wedded wife?
That Charlotte was indeed born a Fox Spirit, but her good days wouldn’t last long.
Ava’s eyes lingered on Charlotte’s still-flat abdomen, seeing no signs at all. Could Hailey Hill have been lying?
She had to find a way to bring both Charlotte and Atlas back to the Hallow Family home. Only then could she clearly know when Charlotte would be pregnant, and she would choose the perfect moment to strike, ensuring that everyone would never recover...
Besides, she needed to hear Atlas personally say it; only then would it be enough to convince Charlotte.
Had Hailey Hill prepared everything well? Did she get Atlas’s personal promise already?
The awkward atmosphere was dispersed as those executives began trickling into the meeting room, filling it with growing energy.
As outsiders entered, Ava naturally fell silent, sitting quietly in her place, toying with the pen in her hand. Yet Charlotte always felt that Ava’s smiling gaze was somehow sinister and spine-chilling...
