Charlotte paid attention to every detail, including interface design and the contract with the streamers. She wanted everything to be flawless.
One month later, CharChat was launched formally.
Over a million users registered in a matter of several days.
So far, due to a lack of funds, Timothy had only completed the registration of his company and its logo.
The 300,000 dollars was far from enough.
Both publicity and operation needed a significant amount of money.
Before long, he noticed the existence of CharChat.
“No way! Impossible! Charlotte must’ve stolen my idea and plan!
“This wretched woman! I won’t spare her!”

What flustered Timothy even more was that Charlotte had never contacted him again in the past month.
It was as if they were just strangers.

“That stupid woman couldn’t stand leaving me alone for a week before. Now, it’s been over a month, and she hasn’t called me once. Is she over me? How is it possible?”
Timothy truly wanted to succeed on his own.
But now, he realized how hard it was.

Without the support of Charlotte’s father and her family’s wealth, he was nothing.

Time elapsed.
October 9 came.
It was Kieran’s 70th birthday. On this day, Gregory was gonna formally take over the Bradford Group.
The entire household was busy preparing for the celebration. The crystal chandelier brightened the hall.
Celebrities in all walks of life in Freyburn were invited to the banquet.
In a traditional suit, Kieran sat in the seat of honor. Despite the amiable smile on his face, he emitted an awe–inspiring aura.
“Welcome.”
“Happy birthday, Sir Bradford. I wish you a happy, long life.”
“Congratulations, Mr. Bradford, on your taking over the Bradford Group as the president. May the Bradford Group thrive.”
“This way, please, everyone.”
Guests swarmed in, giving their best regards to Kieran and congratulating Gregory on his taking over the company as the president.

With impeccable features and fine makeup, in a graceful dress, she became the center of attention immediately.
“Mr. and Mrs. Lindsey, Ms. Lindsey, welcome.”
The guests greeted Gordon and his family at the sight of them.
“Ms. Lindsey has become even more beautiful than the last time we met.
“Thank you.”
“I hear Ms. Lindsey developed a civilian live streaming app. She’s been doing well.”
“They say nearly a million users registered in the first month. A ton of Internet celebrities have signed contracts with her company.”
“I’ve downloaded that app, too. The videos are hilarious.”
The guests began discussing the popular CharChat.

In a corner of the hall, Timothy stood alone. He grasped the glass so tightly his knuckles went pale. No one paid heed to him.
Looking at the successful Gregory and the glowing Charlotte, he was green with envy. Hate grew inside him like wild grass.
In his previous life, he was the man of the hour and the new business star.
The enormous frustration was eating at him,
While receiving the guests, Evelin watched Charlotte’s every move.
“Timo, Charlotte has come. Seize the opportunity. When the banquet begins, invite her to a dance.

“She was crazy about you. If you swallow your pride to please her, she’ll come back to you.”
Timothy gulped a mouthful of wine sullenly and refused, “Swallow my pride for her? Not gonna happen!”
Evelin was anxious. She’d make her son kneel before Charlotte if she could. “Just listen to me. Time to grow up.
“Charlotte is a good girl. One word from her father, and your career will soar. Not to mention her family’s wealth. When her parents die, all the money will belong to you. Understand?
“Do as I say. Get her back.
Timothy smacked his lips.

He feigned nonchalance on the outside, but deep down, he agreed with his mom.
He also meant to take the Lindsey family’s property.

Who would say no to enormous wealth? He wouldn’t mind working out a plan for it.
A moment later.
Charlotte’s parents were talking with some politicians and business tycoons while she was chatting happily with some rich girls.
Holding a glass of wine, Timothy attempted to get close to Charlotte.
