Sweet May-December Marriage

Chapter 173 Put Her in a Cage

Chapter 173 Put Her in a Cage

The two men were both strong and ugly, and their creepy smiles made Charlotte feel uneasy. She stepped back, and asked in a quivering voice, "What...what are you doing here?"

The two men exchanged glances, and one of them replied, "Well, we've come to find a pretty little thing like you...We've come across a beauty this time. Just look at that lovely face... and that soft skin..."

The other man, with his hair dyed yellow, said, "Her voice is sweet, too. Bet she'd sound nice in bed... No time for chit-chat, let's do this!"

"Alright."

The two men pounced at her. Charlotte clenched her teeth and reached for her silver needles, only to realize she'd left them at home today. She couldn't even defend herself...

What could she do?

Charlotte was on the verge of tears. She closed her eyes and ran as if she were a frightened cub. But her waist was firmly gripped by a man, and she couldn't break free despite her struggle. Charlotte was scared to tears and cried, "I'll give you all my money, and just let me go...I'm still underage, and I'm protected by laws for minors. You bad people..."

The man was speechless. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

He placed Charlotte on the sink and said in an amusing tone, "You are protected by laws? I'm so scared."

Charlotte paused.

Still sobbing, she burped and opened her eyes. Her lashes were wet from tears, and her vision was a bit blurry. However, she recognized the person standing in front of her and wept again, "You're such a bad guy! You're the worst!"

Nelson was silent for a moment.

It seemed that he had messed up.

He hugged her and tried to console her, "Alright, alright, I'm sorry. I arrived a bit late. Please don't cry."

Probably because she became bold after getting drunk, Charlotte asked while sobbing, "Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be with Helena in the hotel room?"

Nelson raised his brow and asked, "You mean sleeping with you?"

Charlotte said angrily with tears in her eyes, "No!"

Nelson chuckled, "There is no need to cry. I don't like Helena."

"Then why did you take the card?" Charlotte accused him, "I saw everything, and you can't fool me."

"Do you even know the room key cards?" Nelson took out the card from his shirt pocket and placed it in her hand, saying, "I took it because there is a show for you."

He picked Charlotte up as if she were a child. She rested her head on his shoulder and sniffled. When she noticed the two men from earlier lying on the ground, she gasped and asked, "What happened to them?"

Nelson replied in a cold voice, "They're still alive."

"Did you beat them up?"

Charlotte said, "They got what they deserved."

Charlotte tilted her head and asked, "Why didn't I hear much noise when you beat them?"

Nelson smiled but made no response.

After years in the National Security Agency, he had mastered the art of assassination. Dealing with these two quietly was easy.

Nelson carried Charlotte out of the restroom and asked, "Little one, what's the room number?"

Still somewhat dazed, Charlotte took a glance and replied, "Room 3402."

In the hallway, the attendants all looked down at the floor. Nelson walked steadily and eventually found Room 3402.

...

The thought of Charlotte being dragged away and tormented by those two ugly men gave Helena a sense of satisfaction.

She had envied Charlotte's pretty since childhood, so she constantly harassed her and even cursed her with disfigurement many times. Every time Amanda took her to pray or make birthday wishes, Helena's wishes were always for Charlotte to become ugly. However, after all these years, Charlotte had only become more beautiful, to the point where Helena wanted to ruin her.

Wouldn't it be quite interesting to witness someone like her getting involved with two ugly men?

The thought of Nelson coming to her room later and replacing Charlotte made her feel excited and shiver, for she really enjoyed the feeling of having supreme power. Helena hurriedly took a shower but nearly stumbled when she walked out of the bathroom.

What was going on?

Helena propped her forehead with one hand and frowned. She felt dizzier and also began to feel hot. Being frequent in bars and nightclubs, she quickly realized that she had been drugged...But wasn't the drug added in Charlotte's juice?

Or did Mr. Clark have a preference for this?

Suddenly, the door clicked open, and someone entered. Helena's eyes were already blurred, and she couldn't see clearly. Driven by instincts, she hugged and kissed the person.

...

Charlotte's eyes widened.

The bodies of the three were entwining in bed, which left Charlotte totally shocked.

Nelson covered Charlotte's eyes with his hand and whispered gently in her ear, "She intended for someone to treat you this way and added something to your juice."

Charlotte's heart trembled.

She had always known that Helena disliked her, and her resentment had grown after being denied access to the Clark family's private hospital. Yet, she had never imagined human nature could be so dark and evil.

Nelson said with a smile, "She only got what was coming to her."

Charlotte pursed her lip and asked, "Did you... know it from the beginning?"

Nelson just sat on the sofa and ignored the three having sex in bed.

Charlotte was sitting in his lap and looked like a small animal, which made his heart softened. He replied, "Yes, I knew from the very beginning."

Charlotte looked down and asked in a low voice, "So, did you bring me here intentionally?"

"In fact, this world isn't as beautiful as it may seem," Nelson whispered in her ear. "Lottie, you see, they're plotting against you in this malicious manner. Even if you hadn't come today, they'd have found other ways to destroy you. When that happens, you'd be helpless and could only weep and plead. But they wouldn't have any pity for you; they'd only become more ruthless in torturing you."

Thinking of those two creepy men in the restroom, Charlotte shuddered.

Nelson was right. She couldn't imagine what might have happened if she had been taken by that man.

Nelson touched her long hair with her slender fingers, and under the soft light, his profile looked handsome and distant. His eyes squinted slightly as he held her in his arms. His cool lips brushed against her ear as he whispered, "So, you see, you're only safe when you're with me."

...What was going on?
