"Do you have anything else to ask?"

"What else do you want me to ask?" Christopher wasn't at all afraid of Shane, who was the most powerful man in River City. He suddenly laughed in a low voice. "Shane, we brothers should get together sometime."

"Alright."

Christopher stood up gracefully after he got his answer. He walked towards the door, then stopped without turning around.

"I don't like it when people speculate about me and I won't speculate about others as well."

With that, he closed the door and left Shane in silence. With the closing of the door, the sound came to an abrupt end.

Shane looked out the window coldly with his hand in his pocket. He looked like a king overseeing his country.

At this moment, in the Emerson family.

Charlotte brought her suitcase down from the taxi. She sneered when she saw the villa's tightly shut doors.

She didn't care how hard the future would be, she was willing to do whatever it takes to get what she wanted.

"Who are you looking for?"

At the front door, the butler glanced at her in confusion. There was a trace of annoyance in his eyes as he yawned. He clearly had no intention to open the door.

"Elaine Emerson."

"Madam is taking a nap now. You can wait outside for a while."

The butler couldn't help but rolled his eyes at Charlotte's plain clothes. "The Emerson family is not a place for the homeless anyways," he muttered under his breath. The coldness in Charlotte's eyes stunned the butler for a second.

"I'm at the door."

Charlotte picked up her phone and dialled a number as she looked at the butler's adamant attitude.

She didn't expect the landline was still the same after so many years...

The corner of Charlotte's mouth curled up in a bitter smile. This string of numbers was probably the only thing she's familiar with within this villa. "Lottie! Come in quickly. Didn't Mr. Fuller send
