Chapter 53 – Consequences of Their Actions

Who dared to slander my woman! 

This showed his arrogance and might.

It was impossible to say that at this moment she didn’t feel touched.

Edwin gave the handkerchief back to Quentin and softly said, “Let's go. We don't have to be here now.” 

There on the screen, a video played. It showed Lynn Sanders give Bella a hard push, who almost fell down and then she covered her stomach with her hands, then Lynn slipped the necklace into Bella’s bag, while Bella struggled to stand up, it slid along the edge of the bag into the trash bin.

The sound of a slap broke the silence.

“It was you. Bitch.” Molly shouted.

She had brutally slapped Lynn's face, and she was in shock. When she came to, she jumped over to Molly, “Why did you slap me? It's you who could not stand my sister being in a relationship with the Lord and told me to vilify her.” 

“I don't know when I told you to vilify her. I even don't know her.” Molly said out of anger, and slapped her again, “You bitch.”

Lynn slapped her back, “If I didn’t, you said I would get kicked out of ‘Out of the Sky.’ I had to do that.” 

Charles Williams looked at them apathetically, “An apology.” 

Bella refused, “I don't need an apology. Truth is always more important than an apology.”

More importantly, she didn't want them to stop fighting. Lynn should know what it felt like to be a laughingstock.

When Martin came to pick up Lynn, she was still fighting with Molly, surrounded by upper-class people. He hurried over to protect her in his arms and looked at Bella standing off to the side.

She looked even more lovely than the other night, dignified and elegant. He could hardly take his eyes off her.

Bella felt disgusted. Now that she proved her innocence, she just wanted to leave this place.

Martin rushed to Bella, “Bella, she is your sister. How could you watch her be slapped by Molly?“

Bella stood and turned to look at him, emotionlessly she said, “My ‘sister’ believed that I had stolen a million-dollar necklace.” and pointed at the surveillance video that was repeatedly playing. “Look at it.”

Charles's long arms wrapped around her, his blue eyes swept to Martin, and his gorgeous voice spoke coldly, “Take care of your woman. Wrangle her in. If you don’t, I’m sure there will be no room for the Smith family in the finance circle.”

Martin was shocked, which meant Charles would burden Martin’s family. He watched the screen, he didn't expect Lynn to do that.

“Martin, she slapped me, she slapped me! I didn't mean to frame my sister,” she cried in his arms. “It was Molly who forced me. If I didn't do it, she wouldn't let me stay on the show. Believe me, I was forced to do it. I really wanted the part.”

Lynn indeed had a part in ‘Out of the Sky,’ but it was Martin who invested six million dollars in the show to get her in, and an actor that was supported by an investment could not be easily kicked out.

“Okay, stop.” In the eyes of sympathy, Martin pulled Lynn out of the main hall.

Ziv looked at Molly, “If Miss Sims doesn't go now, I'm afraid that the custodians will come and pick up the trash. Remember that is where the necklace fell.”

Molly screamed and rushed to the bathroom.

The farce ended, and the crowd dispersed. However, people now speculated on the relationship between Charles and Bella.

Along the way, Bella’s feelings were complicated.

Did Charles stand up for his own ego or out of concern for her?

She had dealt with slander and grievance for a long time. For the first time, two people had come out to speak for her.

It was hard to say that she didn’t feel flattered and special, but why was it the hateful asshole, Charles Williams?

In the chair she sat stiffly, her eyes fixed straight ahead, and the words to express her thanks grew solid in her throat as if a fish's spine was lodged in her trachea.

Charles glanced at Bella. This woman was much more interesting than he imagined. She was framed for stealing. She could have dealt with it herself, but it would have been out of desperation.

He pinched her chin and forced her to turn and look at herself. “Tell me what happened with that man today. Besides Martin, how many men did you have?” Bella hurt by the contempt in his eyes.

She regretted feeling moved. The man protected her only because she was his female companion.

Bella tried to turn her head, but her jaw was being held in place by his strong fingers.

She opened her eyes and forced herself to look straight at him. “I have a few men. Didn't you check them out beforehand? Lord? Even if I were dirty, I still would have to bear your child.”

How many men did she have? How could the man who took her virginity ask such a question?

As he looked at her continuing tears, Charles’s heart seemed to break a little.

Why?

Charles frowned and cautiously kissed her lips, her softness seemed to ease his jealousy.

So, he immediately deepened the kiss, the tip of his tongue pricked open her teeth, his body leaned into hers, put her against the car door, feeling the smoothness and warmth in her mouth.

At the same time, curtains in between the front and rear seats of the car were pulled slowly up.

Ziv knew what was happening.

This kind of indignity made her very resistant.

Her little hand pushed at his chest, trying to stop him.

Charles pressed against her lips and said, “Let me in, or else I can't guarantee that I won’t take you by force. If you don’t wish to in the car, we could try on top of the car.”

This pervert.

Although the curtain was drawn, it was not soundproof. Ziv could still hear everything.

Her face turned red again. She didn't want to have sex with Charles on the car or even in the car.

Her little hands naturally moved down, and her lips opened, so that Charles could enter her mouth.

Her lips were soft and tasted sweet and fresh as the purest seaweed of life in the deep depths of the sea.

Without resistance, Charles became fiercer, confined her, moved his hand to the back of her head, fastened her hands tightly with his other hand, and no longer allowed her to retreat.

She was worried about Ziv all that time, so Bella had stiffened but felt helpless.

Suddenly Charles bit her hard, raised his eyebrows and glared at her, “My woman must be attentive in my arms!
