Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 269

Alexander couldn't help but feel a sense of fear when he detected anxiety in Jed's tone. He knew Jed better than anyone. Very few people in the world could make his father this nervous to this extent. Those who could were all individuals the Arnoult family could not afford to offend.

Now, this mysterious big shot had managed to scare Jed with just a phone call, which clearly meant that they were not someone to be taken lightly.

Alexander glared at Charlotte, feeling a sense of frustration.

Having heard their entire conversation, Charlotte couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Alexander, what did I tell you? You can't afford to offend me. Forget about Gordon. I have plenty of powerful people backing me! You'll untie me right now and apologize properly if you're smart. Otherwise, I'll make the Arnoult family disappear overnight!"

Alexander was livid at her words. But at the same time, he knew that she was indeed someone he couldn't afford to offend. If even Jed was that frightened, how could he not be?

Realizing this, he gritted his teeth and reluctantly untied Charlotte.

I couldn't help but feel confused. I had called Victor to save Isabelle, so how had it turned into saving Charlotte? But even if it was to save her, it was fine as long as she remembered to release Isabelle immediately.

Charlotte stood up after being freed and stretched her wrists before suddenly raising her hand to deliver a slap across Alexander's face. "This slap is for the one you gave me earlier."

She had been terrified earlier and pleading for her life. But now, freed from her torment, she no longer felt fear, only pure rage.

She slapped him again. "This slap is for abducting me in the first place!"
