Chapter 408
Charlotte knew this better than anyone-Ethan was a demon.
He toyed with emotions, trampled on sincerity, and held other people’s lives in contempt… He was nothing but a damned man.
And yet, precisely because she knew all of this, she chose to get close to him.
“Charlotte…”
“Khloe, don’t worry about me. Just take care of yourself. Even if Ethan has feelings for me, who wins and who loses is still up in the air.”
It was the first time Charlotte had interrupted her.
Her expression was resolute, but there was a chill in her eyes that Khloe had never seen before. The girl who had always been gentle, like a soft little lamb, seemed to have transformed in an instant.
Her tone was decisive, as if she were determined to see it through to the end.
“Charlotte, what’s going on with you? Is there something between you and Ethan that I don’t know about?”
Khloe grabbed her hand and felt how icy her palm was.
Charlotte lowered her head just as the elevator doors slid open.
They had arrived at the parking garage. It was time for Khloe to leave.
“Khloe, I’m sorry. This is something personal. I know some of my thoughts are extreme-even foolish-but I… I just want to do this.”
She wanted revenge on Ethan, no matter the cost.
Khloe was right-playing games of emotion with Ethan was no different from playing with fire. If Khloe knew the full extent of Charlotte’s dark, extreme thoughts, she would never allow it.
But mere disgrace and ruin were far from enough to satisfy the rage burning inside Charlotte.
Perhaps her methods had begun to work. Over the past few days, Ethan had clearly changed because of her. A few words of praise from her could correct his bad habits, as if she were training a dog.
Every night, without fail, Ethan told her good night. At the office, he flirted with her openly, appearing and disappearing at will.
Charlotte understood it clearly-to the guy, she had become a fish slowly taking the bait.
Yet, the more composed she appeared on the surface, the harder it became to suppress her growing desire for him…
A life for a life.
Sometimes, once the demon buried deep in a person’s heart is awakened, there’s no stopping it.

Charlotte had to admit it-perhaps she wasn’t a good person either. Not kind. Not forgiving. Extreme and dark.
“Do you think someone like Ethan is capable of falling in love?” she asked.
Khloe’s gaze grew complicated. She could vaguely sense what Charlotte was trying to do, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.
Whether Charlotte wanted to conquer Ethan or harbored some other intention-it was all dangerous.
“No one is without a weakness,” Charlotte said with a faint smile. She gently hugged Khloe, her palm resting lightly over Khloe’s chest. “Even you, Khloe. You’ve been hurt by love before, but you still have a soft spot.”
“But Ethan isn’t like me. He’s not like any of us.”
“He is different. But as long as he can still feel emotions, who can really predict how matters of the heart will turn out?”
Perhaps even Ethan himself didn’t truly know what kind of person he was.
On the way back, Khloe kept replaying Charlotte’s words in her mind.
Was Charlotte truly determined to entangle herself with Ethan?
After hesitating for a long time, Khloe finally called him.
“Khloe? Never thought you’d call me. What’s up?” Ethan answered leisurely, his tone full of teasing.
He knew perfectly well why she was calling.
“I’m warning you-don’t touch Charlotte. She’s mine. If you dare hurt her, I will make you pay.”
Khloe’s voice was cold and merciless.
Ethan dropped the act. “If it’s mutual attraction, are you seriously going to interfere?”
“Yes,” Khloe said flatly. “I am. Charlotte isn’t someone whose feelings you get to toy with, and she’s not suited for you.”
