Chapter 1348 Pushing Your Luck
Charlotte instantly understood what he meant, and the words “Are you sick?” almost burst out of her mouth.
Zander emphasized to her, “Don't worry. I just want to have some fun for half an hour, all right? I'll have someone bring the contract over, and Yvonne can be released from it tonight.”
“Other than coming to me, you won't be able to get Yvonne's contract termination from any other Ingenuity Entertainment executives.”
Although Charlotte said that entertainment news changes every day, the news that has happened cannot be erased. If the people at Ingenuity Entertainment tarnish Yvonne's reputation, it would take a lot of effort for them to build her back up.
Charlotte had been a receptionist before, so her pride had long since worn away. In order to achieve her goals, what did a little self-sacrifice matter!
In the end, she agreed, but emphasized, “If I say it's not okay, you can't use it.”
“Great!” Zander's eyes sparkled with excitement.
Not long after, the waiter came in carrying a small wooden box. Zander opened the box and took out a bundle of hemp rope, using it to bind Charlotte's hands behind her back.
The hemp rope passed around Charlotte's neck and chest, the rough texture of the rope gently rubbing against her delicate skin, causing it to turn slightly red.
Zander pushed Charlotte into the leather sofa and had just put a blindfold on her when the door was suddenly flung open. The person who entered saw the intimate scene on the sofa, and their eyes instantly darkened, pupils turning crimson.
Jerry's fist clenched with a creaking sound, and he swiftly walked in, grabbed Zander, and landed a fierce punch on his face.
He wore a platinum ring on his ring finger, and his fist was incredibly heavy.
Zander, not being a martial artist, felt his mouth go numb from a single punch. It seemed as if half of his face had become completely numb.
Jerry landed another punch, his voice dark and menacing, “Are you f*cking asking for death?!”
Charlotte suddenly relaxed and, hearing a familiar voice, immediately sat up from the sofa. “Jerry? Did you hit him?”
Charlotte's hands were tied, so she could only press her forehead against her knees, trying hard to rub off whatever was on her eyes.
After removing her blindfold, she saw Jerry pinning Zander to the ground and carrying him away. Zander didn't even have the strength to fight back, his face and the corners of his mouth covered in blood.
Seeing Zander in that 'either dead or injured' state, Charlotte's heart chilled halfway.
She was terrified that Yvonne's contract termination would be messed up. She walked over, wanting to kick Jerry away, but she couldn't move her hands. All she could do was yell, “Jerry, let go! Look at his face, it's covered in blood! You're going to beat him to death!”
Jerry stopped what he was doing and looked up at Charlotte. “Do you know what he was just about to do?”
“I know, I allowed it. I'm playing games with him,” Charlotte said, taking the opportunity to push Jerry away. She crouched down and called out to Zander a few times, but there was no response.
She trembled with anger and yelled at Jerry, “Are you out of your mind? Who gave you permission to hit him? What gives you the courage to do that?”
Jerry asked, “Are you with him?”
“What does it matter to you whether we're together or not!” Charlotte was furious at Zander's pathetic look. “You were just my boy toy in the past, what right do you have to meddle in my personal affairs?”
“Is it because you think the breakup fee I gave you is too little? You're really pushing your luck! Just look at how expensive the birthday gift I gave you was!”
Jerry knows about Charlotte's temper, and sometimes her words can be unpleasant to hear.
However, even now, her words still stung him, causing his pupils to constrict slightly and a suffocating pain in his heart.
After a while, he loosened his bloodied fist and sneered coldly, “Fine, it's none of my business who you get involved with. I was just pushing my luck!”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, walking at an incredibly fast pace, his back exuding an air of proud indifference.
