The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 876

Charlotte was desperately trying to catch the attention of Amelia.

But Amelia herself was on the brink of a precipice. How could she spare a thought for Charlotte?

Susan, pale as a ghost, was trying to lower her profile, stealthily preparing to leave the banquet.

She had barely taken a few steps when a towering, black-suited bodyguard blocked her path, radiating an intimidating aura, his expression stern.

Susan froze, flashed a flattering smile, and tried to walk past him. The bodyguard blocked her way, his face expressionless as he asked, “Susan, where are you off to?”

“I, I need to use the restroom...” Susan stammered, trying to bluff her way out, heading towards the banquet’s exit.

The bodyguard blocked her escape. “Susan, the investigation will be over soon. Hold it in.”

“What?” Susan was taken aback, wondering if she had misheard. The bodyguard was actually asking her to hold her pee!

What kind of request was that?

Lysander's men even manage to be unique when it comes to intimidation, their presence overwhelming.

Even with an excuse at her disposal, Susan could not escape. Her initially panicked expression instantly turned ashen. She had no choice but to stand still, the bodyguard towering next to her, his domineering presence making her feel the pressure.

The person in charge quickly pulled up the surveillance footage, projecting it onto the banquet’s big screen.

The screen showed Charlotte whispering something to Susan. Then, Charlotte took off a bracelet from her wrist and handed it to Susan. Susan walked over to Thalassa and, seizing the opportunity of getting close to her, slipped the bracelet into her pocket.

Next, Charlotte turned up, falsely accusing Thalassa of stealing her bracelet.

The surveillance footage captured it all, crystal clear.

This was a premeditated frame-up.

These words, spoken by Zephyr himself, were a bomb exploded in Charlotte's head.

It felt like her world was collapsing.

Ever since she laid eyes on Lysander, she had fallen for him. She had always been fluttering around him, trying to get close to him, relying solely on the playful promise made between Zephyr and her grandfather when they were young.

However, the Ravensong family never took such a promise seriously, and her grandfather never told her about any intended match with Lysander.

Because of this, she had dated several other men.

But from the moment she saw Lysander, she had been captivated by his looks, his competence, and his charisma.

After all, what woman wouldn't fall for a man who was handsome, fit, wealthy, powerful, and yet not a philanderer?
