" Are you Miss Campbell?" A stiff voice sounded out abruptly.

Charlotte raised her head. Unknowingly, a man in a suit and leather shoes was standing in front of her.

Just like her voice, he had a rigid appearance, with goldrimmed glasses, a well groomed hairdo, and thin, slightly raised eyes that shone brightly.

Charlotte could not help but be taken back,

"who are you?"

"I'm Steven Miller. You can call me Steven and I am a lawyer." The man took out his lawyer's license and showed it to her.

Charlotte was even more confused. Why would a lawyer want to see her?

She was merely a diligent office worker, who always got to work on time and had never left early. And she was also a law-abiding citizen who did nothing like stealing. Could it be that she had done something illegalacci-dentally so that she didn't even know it?

"Can we please find a place to talk?" Steven asked expressionlessly.

"oh, oh, okay....."

Charlotte followed Steven into a coffee shop and sat down.

"Would you like something to drink?" Steven asked, his emotionless voice sounds extremely cold.

"No, thanks. I'm fine." Charlotte waved her hand and asked a little nervously,"May I ask why you wanted to see me?"

 Hearing that, Steven forget about the drinks and decided to get down to business. He took out a document from his briefcase and placed it on the table in front of Charlotte.

Charlotte was shocked, could it be that she had accidentally committed a crime and was sent a letter?

"This is the agreement personally prepared by old Mr. Lopez. Please have a look."

"But who is this old Mr. Lopez? "

Realizing that it was not a lawyer's letter, Charlotte felt relived a little. She opened the folder while asking.

However, when she saw that the two bold characters on the top, which said "Marriage Agreement" and that Party A's name was actually her, she immediately threw it away out of shock. " Wh, what Marriage Agreement? I suppose you're not a lawyer, but a trafficker! I'm telling you, it's impossible for me to sell myself. Don't even think about it! "

Furthermore, according to his words, the other party seemed to be an old man?

As if he had seen through her thoughts, Steven picked up the folder expressionlessly, "Don't worry, Campbell, the one who merried you is not old Mr. Lopez, but his third son.... Sean Lopez. "

"Whether it's the old man or his son, I won't agree. If there's nothing else... "

Charlotte's movements suddenly stopped, and her eyes opened wide in disbelief, "What you just said was.... Sean Lopez? "

Steven nodded expressionlessly,"That's right."

"How... how is this possible? "

That's Sean Lopez!

Even if Charlotte did not pay attention to the gossips in the news, the name of the man who was rumored to be the most mysterious man in the Phoenix City was still familiar to her!

 It was said that Master Sean have a beautiful face. He was even more beautiful than women.

 It was said that Master Sean have no interest in women, and was extremely disgusted with them.

It was said that Master Sean is the emperor of business. He was crafty and ruthless, causing the opponents to tremble in fear.

How could such a legendary figure want to marry such an ordinary girl?

Charlotte suspected that she met a liar.

Steven's expression did not change as he took out a cheque and pushed it in front of Charlotte, "This cheque for five million dollars is only a deposit. Old Mr. Lopez said that as long as you agree to marry Master Sean, he will pay you 88888888dollars as the betrothal gift. Old Mr. Lopez has already signed this cheque. Miss Campbell, if you don't believe me, you can now go to a bank and cash it. Then you'll know I'm not lying.

As the leader of the number one family in Phoenix City, although Old Mr. Lopez was once a powerful old general, he took calligraphy as his hobby.

The manager of Charlotte's department was a crazy fan from Old Mr. Lopez's calligraphy and there were several Old calligraphy manuals of Mr. Lopez pasted on his office. So when Charlotte saw the familiar handwriting on the cheque, she was sort of convinced.

"I don't know why Old Mr. Lopez chooses medespite the fact that there are so many girls in Phoenix City and he's even willing to pay an astronomical price for my betrothal gift."

Charlotte calmed the shock in her heart, and pushed the cheque back, "But I'm sorry, I can't accept it. The lesson I've learnt since I was young is that there are some things that cannot be taken advantage of."

There must be a reason behind the abnormality. She had never met Old Mr. Lopezor Master Sean before, yet they sent someone over to talk about her marriage.

Her intuition told her that there was a huge hole in front of her. If she jumped into it, she would not be able to climb out.

"Miss Campbell, don't misunderstand, this money is not for the transaction fee, but for the betrothal gift."

"Whatever. I still can't take it."

Charlotte stood up while carrying her bag, "I still have some matters to attend to, so excuse me."

"Miss Campbell." Steven also stood up, the eyes hidden behind the eyeglasses shimmering, "I heard that your grandmother suffered from a serious heart attack, but the operation was delayed until now because you were short on money. Is that true?"

Charlotte frowned, "You have investigated me?"

"Since you are the future wife of Master Sean, I thought it's normal that Old Mr. Lopez has a basic understanding of your family situation."

"Don't call me that, I haven't promised you!"

"How about this." Steven raised his eyebrows and handed a name card to her, "I'll give you three days to consider it. If you change your mind, please give me a call."

Then he walked past her and left the coffee shop.

His confident expression before leaving made Charlotte a little unhappy, so that she wanted to throw his name card into the trash can.However, she finally kept it without knowing why.

She pursed her lips, then put the card into her bag.

Taking a glance at the time on her phone, Charlotte found that it was already 7 PM, so she quickly took a taxi back home.

After returning home, Charlotte took out the key to open the door, but discovered that she was unable to.

The door lock was changed?

But Aunt Rosa didn't told her about that!

"Auntie, Auntie, are you home?" Charlotte strongly knocked on the door, "Auntie, help me open the door! Grandmother? Grandmother, can you hear me?"

She knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response from inside.

Charlotte called home for a long time before someone finally answered!

"Hello." It was Aunt Rosa's voice.

Charlotte heaved a sigh of relief and anxiously said, "Auntie, it's Charlotte. The lock on the door has changed, but I don't have the key Are you home? Can you come out and open the door for me?"

"Open the door for you? I have changed the lock just to prevent you from coming in, and now you are asking me to open the door for you? What a joke!" Upon hearing it was Charlotte, Rosa immediately changed her voice to a harsh sneer.

Charlotte was startled, "Auntie, what do you mean by that?"

"I mean, I don't have any place for you here anymore. I'm going to leave your room for my son to get married to! As for you, go as far as possible and don't let me see you again! Also, I left all your belongings at the end of the corridor. You should find them yourself!"

Charlotte ran to the end of the corridor and discovered that her daily necessities and design papers had all been thrown out, scattered all over the floor.

Her eyes turned red as she ran back and slammed the door. "Auntie! Auntie! How could you do that? That house was left to me by my mother, what right do you have to chase me away! "

"Why can't I chase you away?"

The door suddenly opened from the inside. Rosa rushed out aggressively and closed the door behind her, for fear that Charlotte might sneak in.

"Let me ask you, did you purposely screw the blind date I arranged for you today?"

Charlottecould hardly believe it, "Could it be that you want to chase me out just because of this small matter? That man, is old enough to be my father …."

Furthermore, that man was horrible. He asked her to be responsible for paying for the loan on his house and car after getting married and he wanted her to raise all of his families. He even said that her salary was too little and told her to ask the boss for a raise.

Did he think the company was owned by her family?

"Do you think you are still the rich girl of the past? You are an orphan girl who was abandoned by the father and had also lost the mother.You would feel so lucky if anyone is willing to marry you.What are you so picky? Besides, so what if he's old? He will know better how to love others and will also treat you well.Didn't you lack father's love since young? He just so happens to be able to fix your flaw!"

"I've never needed father's love!" Charlotte couldn't help but raise her voice and tightly hold onto the two hands hanging by her side.

"Huh, how dare you to shout at me? Do you think that you are now strong enough so that you don't need to put me in your eyes anymore! Just think about it, if we hadn't raised you up in pity, you would have been dead by now! If that's the case, we won't keep you here any more. Hurry up and go with your crap!”

"Just say it directly. Actually, you just want your son to have my room.So why do you need to find so many excuses?" Charlotte laughed coldly.

In order to make room for her son to marry to his wife, Rosa had been crazy enough to arrange blind dates for her. No matter how terrible the man was, as long as it was a man, Rosa would like Charlotte to marry him.

In the past month, Charlotte had got blind dates more than a dozen times.

"So what if I do?" Rosa raised her head, and said confidently, "I have already kept you,a jinx for so long, and I have done everything I can for you! My son is going to get married, how can you still have the face to continue occupying his room?

"Charlotte looked at Rosa coldly, "That was left to me by my mother, why do I have no face to live here?"

This house was left for Charlotte by her mother before she passed away. When her aunt's family bullied her when she was young, they took over the house openly as her guardian. Now, they didn't even want to give her a room!

Rosa laughed proudly, "So what? The name written on the certificate is not yours! Besides, after so many years of painstaking care, do you think a single house is enough to pay back our favor to raise you? If it wasn't for us being relatives, your salary would have been paid to me!"

What a painstaking effort to take care of her, what a great favor to take care of her!

Charlotte did not forget that when she was only ten years old, her cousin was lying on the sofa with her legs crossed, listening to the music and applying nail polish, while shehad already started cooking and washing clothes for the whole family.

Since high school, she had worked hard to earn her own tuition and living expenses, because her aunt's family was no longer willing to pay a dime for her.

But even so, she still had to endure Rosa and her cousin's mocking and ridicule on a daily basis.

In fact, if not for grandmother, she wouldn't want to live with this family at all!

Charlotte rubbed the bitterness in her eyes, "Open the door, I will leave the moment I see grandma."

"That won't do!" Rosa immediately blocked the door, "Mom doesn't want to see you at all. When you did that kind of shameful thing back then, your grandma got heart attack because of her anger to you! Do you think she dotes on you? Actually, that was just for the sake of your dead mother. She've been enduring it till now! "
