The both of them didn’t exchange a single word throughout the entire journey. Soon, the car finally pulled up outside an extravagant villa.

Charlotte pressed her nose to the window as they rolled up to the gates. There were all sorts of luxury cars parked there, and that was how she knew that the event tonight was going to be a huge one. Immediately, she asked, “What sort of event is this?”

“It’s just a normal charity gala,” Zachary replied plainly. “Don’t get nervous. Just stay beside me.”

“Why did you choose me to come with you?” she asked, feeling rather confused. “I’m just a lowly security guard, and there isn’t anything I can do for you…”

“You’re full of rubbish, you know that?” he interrupted her nastily before he got out of the car.

She pouted unhappily, following him out of the vehicle. As she did so, she nearly tripped and twisted her ankle, but Raina caught her in the nick of time.

“Good evening,” Charlotte replied courteously. She was a little surprised at how respectfully everyone was treating her.

Zachary followed the man into the villa.

Charlotte struggled to keep up with him in her heels and decided to follow him from a distance away. Suddenly, she spotted a white Bentley among the crowd of cars.
