Chapter 211

It was Bethany.

She stood in the blood–soaked area wearing white ankle boots. Seeing me stop closing the door, she slowly withdrew her hand, crossing it in front of her chest. “Charlotte, I advise you to back off. Stop entangling with Ryan.”

She found my home address so quickly.

I furrowed my brows. “Whether it’s you or Jessica, if you’re sick, go to the hospital or find Ryan. Don’t

bother me.”

“Hey, stop pretending!”

She glanced inside the house and sneered. “I’ve checked. If it weren’t for marrying Ryan, you, an orphan with deceased parents, wouldn’t afford to live in a house like this even after several lifetimes.”

She lifted her chin, displaying the arrogance exclusive to the wealthy.

Losing my patience, I said coldly, “Oh, and what about you? If it weren’t for your good fortune to be adopted by the Shaw family, could you stand here and talk like this? Could you arrogantly meddle in other people’s marriages?”

Everyone knew how to make others feel uncomfortable.

She offended me first, so it was normal for me to fight back.

“Charlotte!”

Bethany’s noble expression suddenly turned fierce. She raised her hand as if to slap me, but I pushed her away. Staring at her feet that almost stepped into my house, I looked disgusted. “Don’t make my house dirty.”

She gritted her teeth in anger, glaring at me hatefully. “Just you wait. Since you don’t want it the easy way, then I’m going to have to try the hard way. I won’t be nice to you anymore.”

“You call splashing blood on someone’s door ‘being nice‘?” I smiled wryly, retorting calmly, “Miss. Shaw, your version of ‘being nice‘ is something I can definitely live without.”

“You’re just want to stay in the Frost family, don’t you?”

“What do you think? With Ryan’s ability, if he insists on divorcing me, can I refuse?”

I really couldn’t understand why everyone was coming to bother me.

The one who doesn’t want a divorce is Ryan, not me.

Apparently, everyone is afraid of Ryan, only daring to bother me.

Bethany was momentarily speechless, then suddenly laughed, “Fine, your words are enough. Now that the Frost Group is in trouble, marrying into the Shaw family is the quickest and easiest solution! When he brings up the divorce with you, don’t cling to him.”

“Don’t worry.”

I smiled and sincerely made a wish for her. “Then I wish you a hundred years of happiness in advance, and may you have many children and treasures.”

With that, I was about to close the door.

“Charlotte!”

I had already given up on arguing and fighting, yet she arrogantly stopped me, gritting her teeth. “Do you think I can’t do anything to you? Yes, this is Jelaston, not like Jeswood where I can ignore everything, but dealing with you is still a piece of cake!”

I felt completely baffled, looking at her coldly. “Are you on your period or something?”

Even though I agreed, why was she still so angry?

Bethany was stunned for a moment before realizing what I meant, glaring with wide eyes. “Do you know the status of the Shaw family? If I really wanted to deal with you, even Ryan couldn’t protect you…

“Miss Shaw!”

Suddenly, a voice came from the direction of the elevator lobby. I looked over and saw Jack striding towards us in a dark matte gray suit.

Only then did I remember he said he was coming to give me a gift.

After a busy afternoon at the hospital, I had actually forgotten.

Bethany glanced at him, somewhat surprised. “What are you doing here?”

His expression remained calm as he stared at Bethany, his gaze unwavering. “I’m here to deliver something to Charlotte. What about you? Why are you here?”
