Chapter 303: Chapter 303: Probing
Evelyn Curtis really can’t keep her cool.
"I didn’t call you today to boast about anything, I just wanted to tell you that what goes around comes around. If you’ve done something guilty, I hope you can face up to it and do some good deeds. Don’t let yourself stumble in the end."
Her words were like a large stone pressing on Evelyn’s heart, suddenly making her unable to breathe.
"You... do you know something?"
Evelyn’s voice was trembling, and her face showed a hint of unnaturalness.
The memory of the incident at the resort’s Room 808 suddenly flashed through her mind like a series of short scenes from a movie, causing her to shake uncontrollably.
Absolutely... she could not let anyone find out.
"What do I know?"
Charlotte Thompson had a hunch that if she nudged just a little right now, she might get the answer she wanted.
However, the very next moment, Evelyn suddenly regained her composure.
"No matter what you have found out, in his heart, I am always the most important one. I warn you one last time, stop harboring any illusions, and don’t try to learn anything from me. No matter what your purpose is for getting close to him, ultimately, you won’t get what you want."
Evelyn said this calmly.
Although her voice was steady, many thoughts had crossed her mind, leaving her feeling overwhelmed.
"What do I want, what do I want, how would you know?"
Charlotte asked quietly, not knowing what Evelyn was worrying about at this moment.
If the secret of Room 808 was leaked, all the resources, money, and wealth she had now would vanish.
Even the Best Actress award Evelyn had just received would go down the drain.
"It seems Miss Curtis is upset by my words and is not rational enough."
"But that’s okay, anyway, Justin has already cleared things with me. He’s with you just because of that unintentional accident and has no real feelings for you. So, the title of Mrs. Battleson won’t belong to you anymore, Miss Curtis."
Charlotte knew this was what Evelyn, on the other end of the phone, really cared about.
Charlotte didn’t know about the feelings, but the supreme honor and awards that came with such rich resources were something every person in the entertainment industry longed for.
Now, using this weakness against Evelyn, she didn’t believe she wouldn’t get the answer she wanted.
If these two were indeed conspiring to deceive her, she wouldn’t let this woman and Justin have a good time.
Charlotte still vividly remembered all the pain she had suffered five years ago.
The past she didn’t want to mention had led to Evelyn’s current success.
How could she not resent it?
"What? Justin was just speaking out of anger. He had an argument with me recently, so he said those things. If you, Miss Thompson, have any misunderstandings, I hope you clearly understand your position. I’ve been with him for five years, and you, as an outsider, won’t be able to intervene so easily."
Evelyn said, feigning calmness, her eyes becoming sore.
No one knew that, at this moment, her heart was surging like a turbulent river.
She couldn’t control herself.
And indeed, she did not expect that Justin would actually tell Charlotte about their affairs.
The time she has spent on Justin in these five years was not only for the privileges to rise in the entertainment industry.
More importantly, it was due to the love hidden in her heart.
