Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 259

"What do you mean by that? Do you think I can't afford a courier?" Charlotte retorted.

I challenged her, saying, "Go ahead and call one then."

"Fine! Get lost now, and I'll call one immediately!"

I sneered. "Call whoever you want. It's none of my business. I'm here to help Isabelle with her stuff, not yours. Oh, by the way, Isabelle, is there anything here that belongs to her? If there is, I'll toss it out right now."

Caught in the middle, Isabelle awkwardly laughed. "No, no, William. It's all my stuff. Can you help me carry them? Charlotte doesn't mean anything bad. It's just that she's been getting threatening calls lately and is in a bad mood. Please try to understand."

"Threatening calls?" I paused, surprised. "What threatening calls?"

Charlotte snorted, unwilling to answer.

Isabelle sighed. "I don't know who it is, but someone has been calling her from an unfamiliar number, threatening her and telling her to watch out. They've been calling for several days now. She's been so scared that she hasn't been able to sleep."

Was this really happening? Could it be Lucas?

Since I exposed his true nature at Victor's resort hotel last time, it seemed like he had disappeared from school. It was only natural he would hold a grudge and seek revenge on Charlotte.

But when I looked at her face, I decided to keep quiet. If I asked her any more questions, I would only invite trouble.

So, I stayed silent and accompanied them as we continued shopping.

As they walked and talked, they suddenly started discussing Lucas. I learned that Charlotte hadn't contacted him since that incident, though she was still furious whenever she mentioned him.

"He's nothing but a smear on my life. If I see him again, I'll make sure to beat him up!"

Isabelle kept comforting her. "I'll join you. I've never seen such a shameless man. It's bad enough that he took credit for your work, but then he tried to take advantage of you, too. He's just despicable!"
