Chapter 374 

“Mrs. Smith Collapses from Emotional Distress” 

“Second Son of the Smith Family Joins the Smith Group” 

“Second Son of the Smith Family and Mr. Frost” 

“Frank’s Position is Challenged” 

“Second Son of the Smith Family Secretly Contacts RF Group” 

By the evening, the news had been released piece by piece. 

When I saw the last one, I dialed Ryan’s number. ‘Is this your doing?” 

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line before he sneered and said with a hint of sarcasm, “Which part are you asking about? The fake daughter of the Shaw family or the mess with the Smith family?” 

“You know what I’m asking about 

“Whatever you say.” 

His voice was cold as the sound of a lighter flicking on came through. Charlotte, come back and be Mrs. Frost, I can help you with the Shaw family’s issues and the Smith family’s problems. 

I was momentarily stunned. “The Smith family’s issues?”

Ryan’s voice was unyielding, with a hint of a sickly tone. “Charlotte, if you’ve fallen in love with me once, you can fall in love with me a second time.” 

“I’m not stupid enough to make the same mistake again.” 

I wasn’t going to jump into the same deep pit a second time. 

“A month. If after a month you still insist…” 

His voice was tight and trembled slightly. “I’ll let you go!” 

I didn’t feel relieved at all.
