Chapter 3
Lisa was stunned, wondering, “Why did Charlotte ask me to bring her the porridge? There are so many servants here.
What does Charlotte mean?
Does Charlotte see me as a servant?”
However, no matter how resentful Lisa was, she could not show it. As a result, Lisa could only turn her head and look at Loren with grievances.
Although Loren felt a little strange about Charlotte’s behavior, Charlotte was her daughter after all, and Charlotte had just been saved from the water. Loren thought Charlotte could do whatever she wanted.
Loren patted Lisa on her hand and said, “Just go and get the porridge.”
Tears welled up in Lisa’s eyes.
(+50)
Ever since Charlotte took Lisa out of the orphanage to the Dennis family, Lisa had been seen as the young miss in the Dennis family and had never suffered such grievances.
However, after all, Lisa was living under others‘ roofs. So, even if Lisa was unwilling to do as Charlotte said, there was nothing Lisa could do.
In front of everyone, Lisa could only help Charlotte get the porridge.
After a while, Lisa brought the porridge up.
Loren wanted to take the porridge and feed it to Charlotte.
“Mom, let Lisa do it,” Charlotte stared at Lisa and said.
Lisa’s heart was filled with hatred. “With so many people in the room, why does Charlotte keep ordering me around?”
However, Lisa still pretended to be obedient and gentle on the surface. Then Lisa gently blew on the porridge and fed it to Charlotte.
Charlotte opened her mouth and took the porridge. Then she suddenly spat it on Lisa.
Lisa screamed.
And Charlotte slapped Lisa on the face.
Everything suddenly quieted down.
Lisa covered her face in disbelief as she looked at Charlotte. A sinister look flashed through Lisa’s eyes, but Lisa quickly held it back and pretended to be aggrieved again.
“Lisa, are you okay? The porridge was so hot that I accidentally hit you,” Charlotte explained with an apologetic look.
Charlotte thought, “Since you are so good at acting, then I’ll play with you!”
“It doesn’t matter, and it doesn’t hurt.” Lisa’s cheeks burned with pain, but she could only endure it.
Loren came up to smooth things over. “How careless, Charlotte! Go and see if you need to apply some medicine to the wound, Lisa. You still have to attend the engagement party tonight.”
Lisa said yes and turned to leave.
Loren waved her hand and dismissed the servants. Then Loren asked, “What’s wrong, Charlotte?”
“Mom, I know what I’m doing.” Charlotte knew what Loren wanted to know, but she couldn’t tell Loren.
Loren looked at Charlotte and found Charlotte did not want to say more. So Loren stuffed the quilt for Charlotte and sighed, “My sweetheart has
grown up
“There are still five hours before the engagement party. You don’t need to rush. You should rest for a while. I’ll go take a look first.”
Charlotte nodded.
Loren turned around and left.
In the makeup room.
Charlotte was wearing a white, shoulder–length fishtail dress. Her long hair was tied up, revealing her beautiful neck and collarbone. The dress was short in front and long in the back, exposing her straight legs.
With fair skin, black hair, and shining eyes, Charlotte could be seen to be exceedingly beautiful.
“Charlotte, you are as beautiful as a fairy.” Lisa looked at Charlotte with envy. Lisa clenched her fists slightly and could not hide the unwillingness in her eyes.
Although Lisa was humiliated by Charlotte in the afternoon, Lisa still pretended to be close to Charlotte.
If it were in the past, Charlotte would definitely appease Lisa and promise that she would give Lisa a more beautiful dress when Lisa was engaged.
Unfortunately, that was the past. The current Charlotte wished she could torture Lisa to death.
“After all, what suits you is the best. No matter how beautiful the dress is, if the one who will wear it is not good–looking, it will be in vain,” Charlotte said lightly.
Lisa was stunned by Charlotte’s words.
“Charlotte, you are really beautiful.” Terry’s voice rang out, “I really want to hide you from others.”
Charlotte really wanted to slap herself. “How could I feel such a disgusting voice was as warm as sunlight before?” Charlotte thought.
Then Charlotte took a sip of water to calm down.
Not bothering to talk to Terry, Charlotte said, “Tero, hurry up and get out. I want to give you a surprise.”
“Alright. See you in the hall later.” Terry smiled dotingly and turned to leave.
As Terry passed by Lisa, he quietly reached out and pinched her waist. Lisa covered her mouth and smiled charmingly.
Charlotte pretended not to see it and tidied up her dress as if nothing had happened.
Charlotte thought, “Terry and Lisa, see if you two can laugh later.”
The engagement banquet was held at the most famous hotel in Oldburn. After all, the Gallegos family was a very influential family in Oldburn.
The stage filled with flowers in the banquet hall emitted the fragrance of roses, and the crystal chandelier above was giving out some dazzling luster.
Although Terry was an illegitimate child, he was now a member of the Gallegos family after the Gallegos family accepted him.
Although the Dennis family could not compare to the Gallegos family, the Dennis family was still a first–rate aristocratic family and definitely could not be lacking in extravagance.
Almost all of the influential figures in Oldburn had come to the banquet. After all, everyone wanted to make connections with the Gallegos family. There were plenty of people in the banquet hall, drinking and talking, and it was very lively.
There was a huge LED screen in the hall, which was playing the love story of Terry and Charlotte on a loop.
The engagement ceremony went on step by step, and soon it was time for Terry and Charlotte to go on stage to make the promise.
As soon as Charlotte stepped onto the stage, she did not care what the erncee was saying. Instead, Charlotte quickly scanned the crowd, searching for Marcus.
Charlotte easily found Marcus in the crowd. After all, he could always stand out wherever he was.
Marcus was wearing a dark blue high–end custom–made suit. The material and design of the suit were extremely exquisite. Marcus had a delicately outlined face, and his eyes were a little fierce.
Looking at the stage with a slight frown, Marcus was giving out a cold aura that made others dare not approach.
Everyone could clearly feel that Marcus, the big shot, was in a very bad mood.

“Ms. Charlotte Dennis, you are going to be Mr. Terry Gallegos‘ fiancée today. Is there anything you want to say to him?“…
“Ms. Charlotte Dennis?”
“Charlotte, Charlotte.” Terry shook Charlotte’s hand.
“What?” Charlotte snapped back to her senses and looked away from Marcus.
“Ms. Charlotte Dennis, you are going to be Mr. Terry Gallegos‘ fiancée today. Is there anything you want to say to him?” The emcee repeated.
As soon as the emcee finished speaking, the video on the LED screen suddenly changed.
The dirty video of the passionate scene between Terry and Lisa was shown.
“My goodness!” Girls who were a little ignorant of the world cried out shyly and covered their eyes.
Some rich young masters joined in the fun and began to whistle.
In short, the scene was a mess.
Charlotte showed her excellent acting skills. She pretended to be stunned and stared blankly at the big screen, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
Terry was also stunned by the sudden situation.
“Hurry up! Turn off the big screen!” Terry shouted in panic, his tone sharp.
The waiter pressed the remote control and found that the screen was out of control and could not be turned off.
As a result, the video of Terry and Lisa having sex lasted for more than one minute.
“What a bunch of trash!” Terry was flustered and exasperated. “Pull out the power!” The big screen finally darkened, and those unsightly scenes also disappeared.
“Charlotte…” Terry wanted to explain anxiously.
Charlotte did not give Terry the chance to explain. Instead, she slapped him with all her strength.
It was such a hard slap that Terry’s head was tilted to one side, and in a split second, it swelled up.
Turning around, Charlotte gave Lisa a tight slap.
Ow… How can you two…” Charlotte pretended to have just heard the news, and then she covered her mouth and seemed heartbroken. Finally, Charlotte lifted her dress and ran towards the door.
To be exact, Charlotte ran towards Marcus.
Marcus had already stood up when the video on the big screen had just changed, but he forcefully retracted his step.
Marcus pressed his fists against the table, and his veins popped out as he suppressed his desire to run to Charlotte.
Marcus told himself he couldn’t get close to Charlotte.
Therefore, Marcus could only stare at Charlotte, whose heart was broken at the moment.
But Charlotte was getting closer and closer to Terry and suddenly crashed into him.
