Chapter 1431 Leave With Nothing

With a stern expression, Henry raised his voice. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I know my sister's character better than you, you j*rk!” Charlotte retorted, "Have you forgotten the two billion my father gave you when you two got married? At that time, your family's company needed funds for turnover, and you couldn't even borrow that much from the bank. You relentlessly pursued my sister, trying every possible way to propose to her. My father loved my sister so much that not only did he give you two billion in cash as a dowry, but he also helped you establish your network in the business world! If it weren't for my dad's connections and that two billion, do you think your company can grow? Dream on!"

Charlotte had always been sharp-tongued, her words piercing Henry's heart like a dagger. His face darkened as if he was on the verge of exploding with rage.

Charlotte, who refused to be intimidated by his expression, glared back fiercely. "Don't think you can bully my sister just because my dad isn't here and our family is bankrupt. Listen carefully, even if you're set on divorcing my sister, I'll make sure you leave with nothing. I'll not allow that b*tch to take away anything that belongs to my sister."

As Henry listened, his anger intensified, and his embarrassment turned into rage. Without hesitation, he raised his hand and slapped Charlotte across the face. The force was so intense that it caused her to stagger backward several steps, nearly falling over.

The slap mark soon appeared on her delicate cheek.

Once Jessica came to her senses, she charged at Henry like a mad woman, grabbing his clothes and hitting him. "Henry, son of a b*tch! My father has never laid a hand on my sister from the day she was born! How dare you hit her?"

Half of Charlotte's face was constantly throbbing with numb pain.

After steadying herself for a moment and seeing Henry push Jessica to the ground, she instantly picked up a chair and hurled it at him.

As a man, Henry had an advantage in height and strength. Fueled by anger and infuriation, he decided to show no mercy toward the sisters. During the fight, Henry kicked Charlotte away when she attempted to protect her sister. Unfortunately, her head hit the sharp corner of a glass coffee table, and immediately, blood was everywhere.

Sasha, who had been waiting for Charlotte, could not wait any longer. She ran out of her bedroom, only to see her parents fighting and witness how her father kicked Charlotte.

Sasha ran over, and when she saw Charlotte's head covered in blood, she was so fearful that she burst into tears.

The quarreling couple finally regained some sense. Jessica, seeing Charlotte in such a state, turned pale with fright. She quickly went over to cover her wounds.

At this moment, Sean came up to deliver a bag to Charlotte.

Upon seeing the slightly ajar door and hearing cries from within, Sean walked over and pushed the door open. It was then did he discover the mess inside the room. Charlotte was lying unconscious in a pool of blood.

Jessica had no clue how to handle such a medical emergency, so she could only use a towel to stop the bleeding from Charlotte's wound.

Sean asked her to fetch the first-aid kit from home. He then quickly used the gauze to bandage Charlotte's wound. At the same time, he also dialed the military hospital's number. Using his special privileges, he requested them to urgently send a doctor over.

Otherwise, with such terrible weather and traffic jams, Charlotte would have lost her life before even reaching the hospital.

Meanwhile, Jerry had been waiting for Charlotte in the Epean restaurant for hours. Even after the clock struck nine in the evening, Charlotte still had not arrived, and he could not reach her on the phone. The restaurant was about to close, so Jerry had no choice but to leave.

Jerry went to Charlotte's apartment. After turning on the lights in the living room, he saw a delicate ten-inch cake on the island counter, decorated with a pair of cartoon characters and the words "Happy Birthday, my dearest Jerry."

His anger subsided when he saw the cake. After pulling out a chair in front of the island counter, he sat down. Just as he was about to call Charlotte again, he received a few photos on his phone.

In the photos, Charlotte was bending over to get into the car while a man was lifting his hand to brush the snow off her coat.

A subordinate texted Jerry: Ms. Benson has gone to Harnedy Gardens.

Jerry knew Harnedy Gardens was the residence of Charlotte's second sister. From the video sent by his subordinate, he not only saw Charlotte getting into Sean's car but also saw her talking to someone in the car after she got out.

Some two minutes later, the video showed Sean leaving her condominium and the driver taking him home.

Jerry had called Charlotte about two hours ago, asking if she needed a ride from the high-speed train station in Jadeborough, but Charlotte told him to wait for her at the restaurant.

He did not expect to receive such a video.

Jerry's eyes darkened when he suddenly recalled the time Charlotte deliberately arranged to bump into Sean at the hotel. After sending a WhatsApp message to Charlotte, he took out a cigarette from the pack and lit it.

Sitting and waiting quietly in the empty living room, he puffed at one cigarette after another.

He waited from ten in the evening until the next day, watching as the pitch-black window gradually brightened with the first rays of the morning sun. Inside the room, the warm temperature caused the exquisite cake to melt after sitting in the box for seven or eight hours.

In the past few hours, he had neither received a single call from Charlotte nor seen her return. The cigarette box on the table was already empty, and the ashtray was filled with cigarette butts. Jerry picked up the phone on the table and sent a message to the person tracking Charlotte.

A reply came back quickly: Ms. Benson didn't come down the whole night, and neither did Mr. Little.

As Jerry received that update, a chilling sensation washed over him as if someone had poured a bucket of icy water into his empty heart. With a deadpan expression, he tossed the remaining half of his cigarette into the ashtray.

Pushing back the chair, he left the condominium.
