Chapter 290\u00a0<\/p>\n
That girl had been like a light in Charlotte\u2019s life.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the darkest, most helpless moments, she had accompanied Charlotte through countless nightmares, offering support and strength. But suddenly, that light had gone out forever in her world.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Charlotte couldn\u2019t believe someone would give up on life for no reason-not even heartbreak could drive her to\u00a0<\/p>\n
that extent\u2026 not ever.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ethan paused, the wine glass in his hand frozen midair. His usually unfocused gaze sharpened briefly, though the effect was quickly masked by the alcohol. He smirked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou mean\u2026 her? She was just\u2026 someone from the past.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSomeone from the past?\u201d Charlotte\u2019s nails dug sharply into her palms. She forced her voice to remain steady.\u201d Was she important? And now\u2026 where is she?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ethan was silent for a moment, tilting his head back to drain the glass. The alcohol amplified the storm within him, and for a fleeting second, his calculating, sharp eyes revealed a rare, complex grief.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s dead.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His voice was hoarse, but the tone was calm, as if stating a fact that had nothing to do with him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Even though Charlotte had braced herself, hearing those words escape his lips sent a shiver straight from her feet to the crown of her head. Her chest ached unbearably.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She forced back the tears threatening to spill, lowering her gaze. \u201cHow\u2026? Was it illness?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ethan let out a harsh, humorless laugh. \u201cIllness? Kind of. Putting everything into someone else\u2019s hands and ending up shattered\u2026\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n

His words seemed aimed at the girl, yet somehow also carried a veiled message about something else entirely. Charlotte felt her blood run cold at the thought.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSomeone must have hurt her\u2026 that person\u2026 deserves to die.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The words escaped her mouth, but Ethan didn\u2019t even notice. He leaned on the table with one elbow, the wine glass in hand, and mocked lightly, \u201cDeserve to die? No one\u2019s innocent. Everyone just stands in different positions, sees things from different angles.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hearing his casual, indifferent tone, Charlotte\u2019s hatred coalesced. She looked at him: from head to toe, Ethan exuded the calm confidence of someone always in control. Even when speaking of a life lost, he remained disturbingly nonchalant, unbendingly arrogant.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yet to him, someone so insignificant could be, in another\u2019s eyes, the most precious thing in the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cEthan,\u201d Charlotte\u2019s voice trembled slightly, \u201cyou\u2019re so capable, so seemingly in possession of everything\u2026 do you ever feel life is dull? That there\u2019s no challenge left?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ethan lifted his gaze to her, a faint smile tugging at his lips. \u201cOh? Are you offering to make my life a little more challenging?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m just curious,\u201d Charlotte said, lowering her eyes. \u201cFor someone like you\u2026 What do you desire most?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He didn\u2019t answer immediately. It was a question he\u2019d pondered himself countless times-and yet, of all people, it was Charlotte asking him now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After a long pause, he spoke evenly. \u201cProbably\u2026 fame, freedom, happiness.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Three enormous things. Three things that perfectly reflected Ethan\u2019s insatiable greed. He wanted it all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHappiness?\u201d Charlotte felt a sharp pang at that word. \u201cWouldn\u2019t that be easy for you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t mean superficial, worldly satisfaction. I mean\u2026 family, a lover, friends. Just like Khloe, with a support like the Hunt family.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ethan\u2019s gaze fixed on Charlotte. The scent of alcohol clung to him, but his tone carried an unusual gravity.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Charlotte could feel it-what he was saying wasn\u2019t a lie.\u00a0<\/p>\n
