“Wait… Which room did she say she was in again? It’s… Room 868, guess,” saying this, Charlotte took out her phone, pretending she was about to call Jocelynn.
In fact, Jocelynn didn’t call her.
I
She remembered clearly that in her past life, Timothy had stayed in Room 868.
And he had shown up with Jocelynn.
Obviously, they had spent the night together.
Timothy immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He faltered, “Lottie, w- where were you last night? I called you so many times. Why didn’t you pick up?”
She coldly smiled and answered, sounding casual, “Oh, I had a bit of drink last night and hit the bed the second I came home. I forgot to charge my phone.”
Timothy’s expression changed a few times.
He was unreconciled and furious.
But most of all, he felt so frustrated.
How could this be?
Enjoying the embarrassed, shocked look on his face, Charlotte just wanted to laugh.

Chapter 4
In her past life, she had nearly drowned in a swimming pool when she was eight.
She had given up struggling when someone dragged her out of the pool.
When she woke up, Timothy was by her side, so she thought he was her
savior.
From then on, she had become his loyal simp, clinging to him whenever and wherever. No matter what he did, she had supported him unconditionally, even at the cost of her family.
After her family had been destroyed and she was reduced to an empty shell, she realized bitterly that Gregory, instead of Timothy, was the one who had saved her life.
Fortunately, she was given a second chance.
This time, she’d slowly torture him until he was totally crushed.
He’d never have another chance to rise in power by destroying her family.
“Well? Do you still wanna go inside?” Gregory asked sternly.
The reporters came back to their senses and quickly apologized, “N–No, of course. That won’t be necessary. This is just a misunderstanding. Sorry, Mr. Gregory.”
“We’ll be out of your hair now. See you.”
They didn’t scoop any juicy story.
Fear of Gregory’s influence, they didn’t dare to cause any trouble and practically fled.
After shooting Timothy a cold glance, Gregory left with his bodyguards.

“Mom, let’s go and have breakfast with Joice,” Charlotte said.
“Alright.” Kathy nodded.
Timothy panicked. He hurried forward and said, “Charlotte, I’ll take you and Kathy to breakfast. It’ll be my treat.”
He had spent the night with Jocelynn in Room 868.
After multiple rounds through the night, Jocelynn was still disheveled, and the room was a mess.
If his affair with Jocelynn came to light, he could say goodbye to his engagement with Charlotte.
Charlotte might be a fool, easy to manipulate.
But her parents were shrewd enough to see through his schemes.
“Kathy, there’s a new restaurant nearby. I’ll take you both there to give it a go. How about that?” Timothy turned to Kathy.
“Oh, really? That’s more of the reason why we should take Jocie with us,” Charlotte said, leading Kathy and a few servants toward Room 868.
Claire Stuart, Jocelynn’s mother, was among the servants.
Claire’s husband had passed away when Jocelynn was a little girl, and she had worked as the Lindsey family’s maid for over twenty years.
Being a single mother was hard. Besides, she had always worked hard. Seeing this, Kathy had generously covered Jocelynn’s full tuition and living expenses. She had even offered Jocelynn to live at the Lindsey’s manor and to attend the same elite school as Charlotte.
But her kindness wasn’t appreciated.

Instead of being grateful to her, Jocelynn had always been jealous of Charlotte and constantly tried to compete with her. On top of that, she had colluded with Timothy to plot against the Lindsey family, trying to ruin them and take everything for themselves.
They would never get what they wanted.
This time, Charlotte was determined to make the despicable pair pay and reclaim what rightfully belonged to the Lindsey family.
***
Soon, the group went to Room 868 under Charlotte’s lead.
Charlotte pressed on the doorbell.
Assuming Timothy was back, Jocelynn ran over to open the door excitedly.
“Timo, you’re back already? I thought…”
