Khloe wasn\u2019t even Charlotte\u2019s real sister. Sure, Khloe gave her a little guidance here and there, but how could that compare to the lessons life taught through power, wealth, and desire? Charlotte replied calmly, \u201cEthan, and you, following Clarice- doing things that only harm others while benefiting yourself-is that really all right?\u201d He snorted, a hint of derision in his voice. \u201cClarice is my mother. Besides, she has her own position.<\/p>\n<p>Just because she doesn\u2019t get along with Khloe doesn\u2019t mean she\u2019s acting selfishly.\u201d \u201cMorrison Group isn\u2019t just one person\u2019s domain. | believe that if you and Clarice are willing, everyone could coexist peacefully.\u201d Charlotte spoke while turning into the bedroom to swap out the bedding. She didn\u2019t intend to share bed linens with Ethan. She remembered a set she hadn\u2019t washed yet-still clean enough- and figured it could serve him for one night. She would sleep on the sofa Watching Charlotte busy herself, Ethan felt an inexplicable warmth. \u2014- At home, servants always made his bed.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He had grown up accustomed to life as a young master. But as far back as he could remember, no family member had ever done this for him. Perhaps it was Charlotte\u2019s humble, \u201ccommoner\u201d energy that gave him a rare sense of family closeness. Watching her make the bed for him stirred something in him. He rubbed his nose, letting go of the irritation he had felt toward her. \u201cPeaceful coexistence?\u201d he muttered. \u201cHow easy is that? My mother earned half the credit for Morrison Group\u2019s empire. Niel\u2019s will is a betrayal.<\/p>\n<p>If it were you, would you hand over the legacy you spent your life building to someone else?\u201d \u201cThat\u2019s Niel\u2019s fault, not Khloe\u2019s. Besides, Khloe has suffered plenty. Inheriting the family fortune now is just the sweet reward after all the bitterness. She didn\u2019t steal it-so why would she give it away?\u201d Charlotte remained calm. She knew Clarice and Ethan had their positions to uphold. She only cared about Khloe and didn\u2019t overthink it. Khloe was reasonable and measured, principled in her actions.<\/p>\n<p>If it weren\u2019t for Clarice and Ethan being part of Niel\u2019s family, she could have retaliated far harsher Nick\u2019s support. \u2014- Ethan didn\u2019t bother debating with Charlotte. If it weren\u2019t for the fact that Clarice was his mother, he wouldn\u2019t care about right or wrong at all He rose, slipping off his coat and unbuttoning his shirt, asking casually, \u201cDo you have a fresh towel and pajamas?\u201d \u201cMy house isn\u2019t exactly stocked for you\u2026\u201d \u201cThen go buy them. There\u2019s a supermarket nearby.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m size 180.\u201d Charlotte was about to refuse when she caught a glimpse of him undressing, his phone placed on the small table nearby. By the time he finished speaking, his shirt lay on the cleanest spot of the bay window she normally kept tidy. He glanced back and noticed her sneaking looks, and a low chuckle escaped him. \u201cI\u2019m not that modest. If you want to look, go ahead. There are plenty of women who wish they had a body like mine anyway.\u201d He even cast a glance down at his own abs. Tall, muscular, disciplined-he made time to work out even in the busiest schedule.<\/p>\n<p>Even if his face wasn\u2019t the most celebrated, his physique and stamina certainly were. Charlotte quickly averted her eyes. Every time Ethan spoke like \u2014- this, it perfectly refreshed her irritation meter. \u201cI can get you some clothes,\u201d she said, hugging the bedding, \u201d But I\u2019m slow, so you\u2019d better take your time washing-don\u2019t catch a cold.\u201d And with that, she left the bedroom.<\/p>\n<p>Please support our website by sharing this novel\u2019s link on your social platforms \u2014 Reddit, Facebook, WhatsApp, and Telegram.
