Charlotte’s face turned even redder with anger. But before she could refute, Estelle hurriedly beat her to it and exclaimed loudly, “You’re right, Jake! This bitch Charlotte Carter is a promiscuous slut! My husband and I had a loving marriage back then, but this bitch seduced him and caused us to divorce!
“After my husband died, she went to seduce her brother-in-law! I’ve never seen such a lowly and shameless woman like her! She thinks about seducing other people’s husbands all day long. She’s born cheap!”
“Come on, everyone. Come look at what this vixen really looks like! If she and her brother-in-law are innocent, and there’s nothing between them, why are they having a meal together so late?”
Estelle began clamoring loudly.
As soon as she yelled, everyone in the restaurant looked over and shot dirty looks at Charlotte.
“Wow, it’s my first time seeing a homewrecker being slammed and lashed out at in public! What a thrill!”
“That woman is really pretty too. Why would she ruin people’s marriages? She even snatched her sister’s man. How inhumane of her. How much does she hate her sister?”
“Hah, you probably don’t know. Only pretty women are qualified to be homewreckers and mistresses. How could she possibly snatch people’s husbands if she’s not pretty enough?”
“Tsk, tsk, she’s so young and good-looking. Why does she have to do such a shameless thing? What a disgusting hussy!”
…
All of a sudden, everyone started accusing and denouncing Charlotte.
Estelle held her head high with a smug expression.
Charlotte was almost on the verge of bursting into tears because of these words. The usually eloquent and sharp-tongued young lady was now incredibly infuriated by the uncouth and callous slander about her, but she couldn’t utter a single word.
“Hah, since you’re so fond of snatching other women’s men, you’re either doing it for money or because you need a man too desperately, right, Miss Carter? How about you be my woman? I can pay you too. How does eight thousand dollars for every time you sleep with me sound?” Jake leered lustfully at Charlotte’s face.
Estelle chimed in sneeringly, “Jake, don’t be fooled by her. God knows how many men she’s slept with. She’s just a whore, and even two hundred is too much to sleep with her! Eight thousand is enough to book her for an entire month!”
“Haha, good idea, Estelle! Eight thousand a month is indeed more than what those hookers cost.”
Grinning, Jake turned to look at Charlotte with fiery eyes. “Miss Carter, did you hear that? If you stay with me for a month, I’ll give you eight thousand immediately. Of course, if you serve me to my satisfaction, I’ll give you a bonus. How does this sound?”
It was totally a public humiliation!
Tears began welling up in Charlotte’s eyes, and she bit her lip hard, for fear that she would immediately burst into tears once she spoke.
“Where did these mad dogs come from? Do you want to die?” Lucas stepped forward with a cold gaze as he shielded Charlotte. He glared at the two people in front of him with a murderous gaze. How dare these two slander and insult Charlotte? They really deserve to die!
Seeing Lucas defending Charlotte, Jake laughed out loud. “Haha, your brother-in-law indeed can’t stand it anymore. Is he defending his lover?”
(If you have problems with this website, please continue reading your novel on our new website myboxnovel.com THANKS!)Estelle had a contemptuous look on her face. “Hah, he’s indeed defending this little bitch! You’re just a live-in son-in-law. What right do you have to speak here? Even if you’re good at fighting, can you lay a finger on my cousin? If you dare to touch him, his family won’t spare you!”
She hated Charlotte and Lucas!
Although Declan had been incompetent, he had been suave and handsome enough to make Estelle fall in love with him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone through all the trouble to get the Brookes to agree to let her marry Declan, who came from a humble background.
She thought that if not for Lucas and Charlotte, Declan wouldn’t have been seduced and bewitched, the Brookes wouldn’t have forced them to get a divorce, Declan wouldn’t have died, and the Brookes wouldn’t have ended up fleeing from their home!
She blamed Lucas and Charlotte for everything!
Thus, Estelle will never let them off. Relying on the fact that Jake belonged to the Watson family, a top-tier family in San Jose, she wasn’t afraid that Lucas would do anything to them!
Charlotte had already learned of Jake’s identity at the business exchange just now. Hearing Estelle’s threat at this moment, she gritted her teeth and whispered to Lucas, “Lucas, let’s go. Don’t bother about them!”
She wasn’t afraid of the two of them, but she didn’t want Lucas to be implicated because of this. After all, the Watsons were the most powerful family in San Jose, and Lucas would encounter a lot of trouble if he went against them.
So Charlotte decided to endure her anger, not wanting to implicate Lucas and cause things to escalate to the point of being unmanageable.
Charlotte would rather let herself suffer and wanted to leave, but Estelle didn’t want to let her off so easily.
Let her go? That’d be letting her off too easily!
“You want to leave after doing such a shameless thing? You must be dreaming!” Estelle sneered.
She grabbed Charlotte’s wrist and shouted, “How can we let such a hussy off so easily? Everyone, shouldn’t we strip this shameless woman in public and teach her a lesson so that she won’t dare to seduce other men again?”
The shocking statement immediately made all the people around them excited. Many even began whistling and clamoring.
“Go ahead! Strip her! If you don’t, you’re not human!”
“There’s a good show to watch! Isn’t it too exciting to watch someone get stripped in public?!”
“My God, I’ve made the right decision coming here to eat today. If this beauty really gets stripped in public, there will be a feast for our eyes!”
…
Hearing these voices, Estelle felt a strong sense of accomplishment, and she raised her hand to tug Charlotte’s collar.
“Stop it!”
Before Estelle could touch Charlotte’s collar, a strong hand grabbed her wrist, rendering her immobile.
At the same time, Lucas’s incomparably cold voice drilled into Estelle’s ears, sounding as if it came from hell.. “Try touching her if you dare.”
Charlotte’s face turned even redder with anger. But before she could refute, Estelle hurriedly beat her to it and exclaimed loudly, “You’re right, Jake! This bitch Charlotte Carter is a promiscuous slut! My husband and I had a loving marriage back then, but this bitch seduced him and caused us to divorce!
