Chapter 167

After her plane landed, Anna turned on her phone. Then, She saw that someone had called her not
long ago

She glanced at the number and immediately called John.

“Hey, Anna! You‘re back!” John said as soon as he answered the phone.

“Yes, I just arrived. John, can you find out Charlotte‘s cell phone number for me? She‘s that president
of SG” Anna asked.

Anna didn‘t have Charlotte‘s cell phone number. When Charlotte first arrived at the hotel, she scolded
Anna. So, Anna was not with Charlotte during the days she evaluated the hotel.

John sounded surprised. He froze for a moment before answering, “Charlotte? Oh, I can! I‘ll ask the
person in charge of that.”

Anna had just gotten off the airport highway in a cab when she received a text message from John.
After seeing that it was the same number that had called her that morning, her gaze turned somber.
She then immediately turned off her phone screen and closed her eyes as she wasn‘t in the mood to
pay attention to Charlotte at the moment.

As she expected, it was Charlotte calling. Anna could guess what Charlotte was trying to say Moreover,
she was sure she would call again sometime later.

It was afternoon when Anna arrived at her apartment. She was feeling delightful, so she took a shower
and started cleaning the house. Then, she planned to bring her two children home for the weekend

As she was humming a song and tidying up her room, Charlotte called her again. “Hello! Who is this?”
Anna asked deliberately as she answered the phone.



“It‘s me, Charlotte.” Charlotte‘s voice was somewhat somber. She sounded not as lively as she had
been at the dinner party the other day.

Anna asked in a composed manner, “Oh, hello. What‘s up?” “Are you available now? I‘d like to have a
talk with you.”

“Oh, Charlotte, you may be mistaken. I‘m not the project leader, so I can‘t talk to you about our
collaboration. You‘ve called the wrong person.”

“No, I don‘t want to discuss about our partnership. I‘d like to talk about a personal matter.”

“You know, your personal matters‘ have nothing to do with me.”

Charlotte immediately became impatient. She sounded like she wanted to get angry, but she controlled
herself, saying, “Anna, don‘t try to play dumb. You know that you can‘t hide from me forever. Don‘t you
think you‘re going to stay safe and sound with Wayne just by doing

this.”

When Anna heard that, she almost laughed out loud. She had assumed Charlotte to be a powerful and
sophisticated woman. However, she didn‘t expect her to irritate Charlotte by just playing dumb.

Wayne was right. Charlotte is just a spoiled rich girl. Anna thought to herself.

Charlotte asked her to meet her at a café on Business Road at 3 pm. It was tea time, but there were
hardly any customers in the cafe.

Anna immediately knew why it was empty after looking at the menu as the cheapest iced Americano
there sold for three hundred dollars.

“I‘ll pay the bill. So, you can order whatever you want.” Charlotte, who was sitting opposite Anna, said.



“No, thanks. I can buy my own coffee,” Anna replied. Anna then closed the menu and smiled at the
waiter, saying, “A glass of water, please.”

Charlotte frowned and stared at Anna in surprise. The waiter hesitated for a moment, and then looked
over at Charlotte.

“Just give her a glass of water, for God‘s sake.” Charlotte said unhappily, and her expression became
awkward. Anna guessed Charlotte probably felt that she had disgraced her by drinking free water
instead of ordering expensive drinks.

Anna said calmly, “Oh, no. I just don‘t think our conversation will be too long. It would probably be
shorter than the time it takes me to finish a cup of coffee.”

Charlotte looked at her indifferently and asked, “Why? Do you mean you don‘t want to see me? Well, it
seems that you know what‘s going on between Wayne and me.”

“Yeah, sure. Wayne told me that he treated you like his sister.”

Charlotte snickered and said, “What? He really told you that? Anna, it seems I‘ve overestimated you.
Do you believe him?”

“Did he lie?” Anna looked at her at ease.

“Yes. Anna, I am his real fiancée. I can be responsible for my words. Since you don‘t want to talk to me,
let me tell you straight that there is a deep bond between us.”

“You‘ve only been with him for a few months, and you can‘t possibly replace me. Oh, you might be able
to be my substitute before I return. But now I‘m back. So, if you‘re a smart woman, you should leave
him at once so that you won‘t make a fool of yourself.”



Anna said coldly, “You can be responsible for that? You canceled your engagement with him and
married a Frenchman. What kind of responsible person does that? Did you think that your engagement
with Wayne would still count after you divorced that guy? Charlotte, if that‘s the case, then you‘re really
naive. Besides, you really treat your relationship with others casually. Or, do you take Wayne as your
backup boyfriend?”

Charlotte immediately became angry. She said, “What? What are you talking about?! I‘m telling you,
I‘ve never taken Wayne that way! Did you say the same thing about me in front of Wayne?”

Anna thought Charlotte was ridiculous and said, “Ah, Charlotte, I thought you were so confident in
yourself. If so, don‘t believe that what I say to Wayne can influence his feelings for you. You abandoned
him before, didn‘t you? But, you want to get back together with him now. Do you think that I will give
him up because of you? Dear God, why should I listen to you? And, even if I let Wayne be your
boyfriend, do you think he will agree?”

“Anna, all you have to do is leave him, and you don‘t have to care about what Wayne will

10Tou Must Leave mim think. I know that he will fall in love with me again.”

Anna thought that she had really overestimated Charlotte before hearing her words. Anna thought that
she was a shrewd woman and didn‘t expect her to be a naive and shameless fool.

When Anna was speechless, her cell phone rang. After seeing who was calling, Anna looked at
Charlotte and said, “Excuse me, I have to take a call first. You can wait for me and talk later.”

Seeing this indifferent attitude of hers, Charlotte was trembling with anger. Anna answered the phone in
front of Charlotte and said kindly, “Hello, Grandpa.”



“Oh, I‘m doing great. Well, I‘m planning to let the kids stay with me over the weekend. I‘ll pick them up
on Friday night, okay?”

“Great! I‘ll be at your house for dinner. Oh, no, Wayne can‘t make it. He‘s still in London working on that
project. I don‘t think he‘ll be back in a few days, I guess.”

As Anna answered the phone, Charlotte became increasingly upset.

After hanging up the phone, Anna looked at Charlotte and said, “Sorry. I gotta go. Is there anything else
you want to say to me? Hurry up and say it.”

Through gritted teeth in anger, Charlotte said, “I‘m warning you, you have to leave Wayne.”

Anna stood up and said, “Oh. Charlotte, I‘m telling you, I gotta go. By the way. I want to give you a kind
reminder. If you want to talk to someone about this kind of matter, remember to bring some money or
expensive gifts. Otherwise, how will they agree to your terms? No one would do it for you for free.”

After saying this, Anna suddenly felt refreshed. She carried her bag and prepared to leave.

Charlotte said in exasperation, “Ha! Anna, I thought you were a person of principle! I didn‘t realize that
you were doing this for money. Tell me, how much money do you want?”

Anna paused but did not turn around. She said, “Charlotte, you‘re a competent woman at work. So, I
wondered why you would give up Wayne for an unreliable man before. And now, I get it.

It seems that you‘re not as smart as I thought you were.”

Anna thought to herself, Charlotte is such a dumbass. I had made it so clear to her, and she still didn‘t
know what I meant. It seemed that I shouldn‘t have overthought the matter before / met her today.



Charlotte was shaking with anger after hearing Anna‘s words. She had never been so insulted to her
face all her life. Yet, she stared at Anna‘s back as she left but couldn‘t say anything

Charlotte was so angry that her eyes were red, but she didn‘t know what she should do. Just at that
moment, a woman in a gray dress sat down opposite her. In a kind, sweet voice, the woman asked,
“Are you okay?”

Charlotte forced herself not to cry out. She replied in a sulking voice, “Oh, I‘m fine. Who are you? Do
you have to seat here?”

The woman didn‘t answer her. She just smiled and asked, “Do you know why Anna is so

confident? And, do you know why is she so assertive towards you?”

Hearing that, Charlotte was stunned.
