Chapter 1998
Meanwhile, at Landry Mansion, Charlotte was sitting on the sofa in the living room with tears streaming down her
cheeks.
“Tell me the truth, Jim: Are you starting to hate me now because you think Ms. Bonnie is prettier than I am?” She
stroked her face as she cried. “If I hadn’t fallen for Heather’s trick and got trapped in that fire, my face wouldn’t
even look like this today. After alị, i used to be considered pretty too, before my accident ruined my face!
“But now, I’ve become nothing but an ugly hag in your son’s eyes…”
Her voice started to shake as she sobbed, “Even if you change your mind about marrying me, Jim, I won’t blame
you. After all, men can’t keep their promises, and you’re a man, too.

made so many years ago when we were young…
“It’s okay, Jim. Even if you want to break up with me, I won’t blame you.”
Jim let out a sigh when he heard this, walked over to Charlotte, and pulled her into an embrace. “What on earth are
you talking about, Charlotte? Since when did I say I want to break up with you? Since when did I say I’m going to
break my promise?”
Charlotte cried even harder when she heard this. “But you allowed Bonnie to move into Landry Mansion, and you
kicked me out…
“The two of your children love Bonnie more than me, and as soon as I leave, the four of you will become a happy
little family. I’m just a nobody…”
Jim let out a sigh and grabbed hold of Charlotte’s chin, forcing her to stare at him. “Why would you think that,
Charlotte? Don’t you know that as soon as I laid eyes on you, I made up my mind that I’d marry no one but you?”
A glimmer of triumph flashed through her eyes when she heard this.
Nonetheless, she feigned innocence and whimpered, “But you’re sending me away, Jim…”
“I’m not sending you away, just asking you to move out of here temporarily.”
Jim let out a sigh, took out a key from his pocket, and placed it in Charlotte’s palm. “This is a 300-square-feet villa
that I bought in the best part of town.
“I bought this as our future home once we’re married. After all, we can’t possibly continue staying in my parent’s
house forever, since they’ll get better someday, and I know you don’t like dealing with elders…so I bought this
house for our future.
“I had wanted to give you this as a gift, but I never thought it would be used for such a
nurnose.”

With that, he clasped Charlotte’s fingers around the key and added, “Why don’t you stay there and think of it like
you’re just getting prepared for our future life? You can decorate the house however you like.”
In the past, something like this was not enough to reassure Charlotte at all, but this was different.
This was a 300-square-feet villa in the busiest and most expensive part of town.
This was far beyond Charlotte’s wildest dreams.
Even Landry Mansion seemed to pale in comparison!
Despite being secretly delighted , Charlotte still sniffed and lifted her head to stare at Jim in remorse, feigning
sorrow. “Do you really plan on marrying me? You won’t change your mind at the last minute and decide to marry
Bonnie, will you?” Jim curled his lips into a helpless smile when he heard this. “How is that possible?”
