BXBX NOVEL Chapter 513 - 513: His Woman Had Changed
As the car bowled along on the smooth road, Garwood glanced at Dylan through the rearview mirror and asked timidly, "Sir, what your father said is not unreasonable. Actually, you clearly saw Miss Schultz walk into Mr. Rowe\'s study on the second floor when you went to pick her up that night... The evidence she turned over to the police was probably stolen that day from the study. Why don\'t you ask Miss Schultz about that?"
It was hard to read Dylan\'s thoughts from his impassive expression, but his face was as clouded as the gloomy sky.
When he went to pick her up at Royal Villa that day, he found no one in the living room or dining room first. He went upstairs to look for her, only to notice a slight noise coming from Lionel\'s study.
She was in the study.
Just then, Lionel returned with his assistant and went upstairs.
He had no idea what she was doing, but his first instinct was to stop Lionel from catching her. He immediately stepped back to the landing, pretending to be a newcomer, and fought with Lionel so she could get away.
On the way home that night, he wanted to ask her what she was doing in Lionel\'s study, but he didn\'t. Since she didn\'t mention it, he would give her the greatest indulgence.
It was not until the Rowe group was reported to be in a crisis that he realized she went to Lionel\'s study that night to steal evidence.
She brought down the Rowe family.
His father\'s words struck deep into his heart.
She might have returned to him to break the Rowe family.
Garwood probably had the same thought.
But he didn\'t believe it.
Or, he didn\'t want to believe it.
He couldn\'t imagine that the little woman who had made breakfast for him and fed him on his lap a few days before, deceived him.
He refused to believe that her returning to his side was only his own wishful dream.
Dylan\'s face grew darker, and his heart began to tremble painfully. His woman had changed! He can\'t blame her because Charlotte even did ruin their lives by pretending to be his life\'s savior.
***
Savannah sat in front of her father\'s grave, facing the black-and-white photograph on the headstone.
The kind middle-aged man in the photo was looking at his daughter with a gentle smile.
"Dad, did you see that? To avenge your death, I stayed at home and returned to Dylan, and I finally made it. Everyone in the Rowe family got their punishment. The Rowe group suffered heavy losses. Old Mrs. Rowe, who planned your car accident, had a stroke. I heard from my mother that she would spend the rest of her life in bed, unable to move or speak. Ethan Rowe\'s been moving around to save his company and his son, and worry almost made his hair all white. Oh, his son was sent to jail by me…" She said slowly as she touched her father\'s black and white photo.
With a pause, she continued, her voice softened, "dad, I\'m done with this. I don\'t want to lie to him anymore. Maybe you\'ll laugh at me. I don\'t know why, but I can\'t cheat him any longer. I\'m going to confess to him that I had approached him for revenge, but now I really fall in love with him, again after three years... Dad, you know what? He proposed to me the other morning and wanted to remarry me... I refused him that day because I want to finish my vengeance before marrying him. Dad, I\'m not sure if I loved that man three years ago, but now, I really... I really love him. I want to be with him. Do you think he\'ll forgive me?" Her face pinked a little, and the deepest tenderness in her heart gradually came out.
Suddenly, the grass behind her rustled. A sharp, angry female voice came, "you bitch!"
Savannah stood up, her eyes quickly cooling down as she looked back.
She didn\'t expect Charlotte to find this place.
Charlotte had lost a lot of weight, her face deadly pale, as if she had suffered a struggle and a blow.
Her beloved grandma was still lying unconscious in the hospital; her elder brother faced a lawsuit, and the Rowe group was closing down. The rich lady was nobody now, how possible she was not angry?
Needless to say, she flew to LA to settle the matter with her.
A disdainful smile played on Savannah\'s lips. She ignored Charlotte and turned to go.
Charlotte ran to stop her, gnashing her teeth. "You bitch! If I had known you were planning to ruin the Rowe family, I should have asked Edmond to kill you earlier! I wonder why you hate our family so much, and I\'ve checked it! You just want to avenge your father! Oh, even if it was my grandma who planned your father\'s car accident, it\'s your father\'s fate!"
Before she finished, a hard slap came in her face!
Charlotte covered her burning cheeks, staring at Savannah with wide, round eyes.
Savannah\'s voice was as cold as ice, "this slap is to tell you that the lives of the rich are no more valuable than those of common people. Especially you and your family. I want all of you, the Rowe family, to be buried with my father! Get out of here and don\'t dirty my father\'s grave. I have a hundred ways to make you regret if you dare follow me again!"
Charlotte shivered at her cold eyes.
Savannah was no longer the simple and weak girl. In front of her father\'s enemy, she became a thorny rose.
Charlotte was absolutely convinced she would do what she said. She bit her teeth and left the cemetery.
As Charlotte stepped out of the gate, she stopped, slipping her hand into her pocket, and touched the tiny recorder with a sneer.
Savannah, do you think only you know how to be calculating? You ruined my family, and now it\'s your turn to suffer!
***
The Sterling group
"Mr. Sterling, Miss Rowe wants to see you," reported the secretary at the door.
"Let her go." Dylan wasn\'t surprised that Charlotte would come. He didn\'t even look up.
He was so disgusted with the woman that he felt sick to hear her name.
If it weren\'t for the fact that she was the daughter of the Rowe family, and he had to give the Rowe family a face, her fate would be even worse.
The secretary was helpless. "I asked her to leave, but she insisted on seeing you, saying that she had to tell you something important about Miss Schultz..."
