Chapter 120
Charlotte said, “No, it’s because you’re ignoring me. I already know I was wrong. I came over to Ms. Kensington hoping she’d cast fie as the female lead. I’ve taken what yoit said to heart.
Aubrey gave her a look before walking towards Lysander and Elara.
Seeing them together, he said, “Lysander, Elara.*
“He’s really your brother!” Charlotte blurted out to Aubrey.
Lysander glanced between Aubrey and Charlotte, realizing they did, in fact, know each other.
“When did you get a girlfriend?” he asked, his tone cold.
Aubrey looked at Lysander, noticing just how angry Lysander was.
Actually, he’d had a bad feeling about this the entire way over.
He turned to Charlotte, who was standing beside him. “What did you do to offend my brother?” he asked.
Charlotte heard what Aubrey said and pressed her lips together, then put on an innocent expression. “I didn’t offend him. I just came over to ask Ms. Kensington if I could be the female lead in her novel. I don’t know why they keep picking on me and bullying me…”
Of course, she wasn’t going to admit her attitude was the problem.
Aubrey hadn’t been there anyway, and it wasn’t like he and Lysander shared the same mother.
Therefore, Charlotte thought that Aubrey would definitely defend her when he heard that Lysander was bullying her! “You mean my brother’s bullying you?” Aubrey asked, disbelief in his voice as he looked at Charlotte.
Charlotte looked at Aubrey and nodded emphatically. “Yes! They just keep ganging up on me!” she said, trying to hide behind Aubrey, hoping he’d defend her.
But Aubrey grabbed her firmly by the arm. “Tell me the truth. What did you do to Lysander and Elara?”
His tone was fierce now, completely different from how gentle he usually was around Lysander.
In front of Charlotte, though, he was assertive.
If Lysander had called him over, it was clear Charlotte must have caused trouble.
Therefore, no matter how hard she tried to play innocent, Aubrey could see through her.
Seeing his anger, Charlotte stammered, “I didn’t… It’s really them!
Aubrey sighed and turned to Lysander. “I’m sorry, Lysander. I broke up with her a while ago. I had originally thought of casting her as the heroine in Elara’s novel to earn a bit of goodwill with Mom, so you both wouldn’t dislike her as much. But I didn’t expect her to offend Elara!”
Elara was speechless.
She knew now why Charlotte had to come and insisted on acting in her novle.
It turned out that it had something to do with Aubrey.

If Aubrey hadn’t asked Charlotte to come, Charlotte probably wouldn’t have come begging
Thinking of Charlotte’s previously condescending behavior, Elata found her quite funny
If she was going to beg, she should at least act like she was begging!
But Charlotte seemed completely absent, like she was doing Elara a favor.
Lysander said to Aubrey, “She claims Elara should be grateful to her for being able to star in Elara’s work, and she even said you’re her boyfriend! She warned us not to offend you. So I’m curious–what exactly would happen if we dik
Aubrey didn’t know what to say.
He glanced at Charlotte beside him and felt a sudden headache
Those were things he’d never dare to say in front of Lysander.
And he really didn’t understand how she had the nerve to do it.
Without hesitation, he cleared things up and said, “Lysander, I’m just online friends with her. We usually just play games together. We’re not close at all! And she’s definitely not my girlfriend.”
Charlotte was speechless.
She looked at Aubrey, stunned by his sudden change.
She had expected him to back her up.
But instead, he turned out to be such a coward.
‘He has his mom backing him up at home, and is it necessary to be so afraid of Lysander?‘ she thought.
Charlotte just couldn’t understand.
She turned to Aubrey and said, “Aubrey, how can you be like this?”
Aubrey glared at her. “Try saying one more word.”
Charlotte immediately fell silent.
Elara, sensing that Lysander might take things too far, intervened. “Since she’s your girlfriend, take her back and deal with her yourself! I don’t have a problem with you having a girlfriend, but she’s just way out of line sometimes…”
“She’s really not my girlfriend!” Aubrey was close to tears.
‘Am I not being clear enough?‘ he thought.
Lysander shot a look at Elara and said, “Let’s go now.”
Aubrey, desperate to fix the situation, called after them, “Lysander, Elara. Don’t worry. You won’t be seeing her again!”
But Lysander and Elara ignored him.
Aubrey looked back at Charlotte and couldn’t help but sigh.

Mostly she seemed so meek in front of him before.
If he’d known she was going to cause this much trouble, he’d never have let her act like his girlfriend in the first place.
Seeing that they were gone, Charlotte walked up to Aubrey and pouted. “Baby, you were so mean to me, and now I’m mad”
“Let go,” Aubrey said coldly.

Charlotte released him and looked at him, saying, “They’re all gone now. You don’t need to keep acting like that”
“Who said I was acting with you?” Aubrey asked, his gaze hard. “You seem pretty proud of yourself. You couldn’t even handle the task I gave you, and now you’ve gone and offended my brother and his girlfriend?”
