Chapter 2683
Charity took the menu and read through it calmly, she answered Chester’s
question in the meantime. “Some things you found out might just be things
that I’m willing to let other people see.”
“Is that so?” Chester leaned against the chair. He scrutinized her. “Let me
think. When did Reborn appear on Wall street for the first time? Was it four
or five years ago? How old are you? You’re 24 years old this year. Could you
possibly have gone to Wall Street when you were 19 years old? There’s no
record of you even going overseas at that time. You could be a genius, but
based on your environment since you were born, you have no knowledge of
finance at all. Your studies weren’t on finance, and your parents were just
ordinary employees.”
He paused for a moment. His gaze focused on the face of the woman
opposite him, which had light and shadows on it because of the crystal
chandelier above them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis gaze gradually turned as deep as a winter pond.
“It could be that you’re not the real Reborn. You’re just impersonating her,
or you’re not the true Eliza. You’re an imposter taking Eliza’s place.”
Chester’s fingers tapped the surface of the table. “If my guess isn’t wrong, you were the one who exposed Heather
and Stuart’s scandal, right? Shedrick and I have suspected that all the pictures and text were leaked by someone
among the company’s internal personnel. However, the person that I suspected the least was you.”
Charity raised her eyebrows. She did not deny it and simply shrugged. “Continue.”
“Actually, it’s not hard to think about it. You were in the company for a few years and often attended the company’s
events. You had a good relationship with Hailey too. It’s not hard for you to obtain those things.”
Chester squinted his eyes. “After that, you collaborated with Ferra Film Group and became its major shareholder.
Then, you acquired a few video and film companies to drive Felix Media into a corner. You also used the dirt you
had on a few artists of the company to force them to switch companies, slowly turning Felix Media into an empty
shell. You’re truly amazing.”
“Thank you for the compliment.” Charity raised her head and said, “Can we order dinner? I’m a little hungry.”
“Go ahead. I’m treating. You can order whatever you want.” Chester took out a packet of cigarettes. “Do you mind
if I smoke?”
“What if I say I do mind?” Charity blinked. “Did I tell you this before? The way you smoke without considering the
time and place you’re in makes me feel repulsed. I hate the smell of cigarettes.”
“That’s why you silently endured it when I smoked on the bed in the past, right?”
“Yes. I wanted to puke so badly.” charity said the most prickly words with a calm expression. “However, I couldn’t
say much at that time. After all, you might’ve patted my face and said, ‘Hey, Eliza, who do you think you are? Me
smoking in front of you means that I think highly of you. ’ ”
Chester smiled until his handsome eyes curved into arches. “How do you know me so well? It seems like we’re
pretty compatible. I’m sorry. I take back my words from before. Come back to me, Eliza. I’m really starting to
admire you.”
“Do you think you’re good enough for me?” Charity countered.
“I was too selfish in the past and didn’t let you enjoy your time properly.”
Chester shrugged with raised arms. There was a hint of wickedness in his
eyes. “I can please you properly and promise I’ll make you happy. I mean
it.”
Charity raised her gaze from the menu to glance at him. “I’m the
shareholder of Jewell Corporation and Ferra Film Group now. The thing I
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdon’t lack the most is money. Do you think I’ll still need you, an older man
who has gone through so many women and has gone to jail before? You
want me to give up on clean men with my identity? As long as I have
money, there’ll be many men wanting to please me. Why do you think you
can win against other men?”
Chester was stunned.
Those words sounded unpleasant to the ears, but it was familiar as well.
“Does this sound familiar?” It was as if Charity had seen through him. “I was
only in a relationship with Monte for some time, and I wasn’t a virgin. You
kept looking down on me because of that. In your heart, I was just a
plaything, why? Are only men allowed to disdain women but not the other
way round?”
“Eliza, you’re getting revenge on me. Do you hate me so much?” Chester
sighed emotionally. “If your aim is to make me eat my words and teach me
a lesson, I already feel that way now.”
