Chapter 47 I’ve Seen You Before

Charlotte jumped, startled. She turned to find herself face–to–face with a man whose features were striking yet unnervingly pale. His eyes bore into her with an intensity that made her uneasy, and the mole at the corner of his eye added an almost otherworldly allure.

He gripped Charlotte’s arm tightly, and the pressure made her wince in pain.

“Excuse me, sir. Who are you? Could you let go of me?” Charlotte tried to pull her arm free.

But the man’s hold only tightened.

Charlotte gasped in pain.

Arthur’s cold voice rang out, cutting through the tense moment. “Let her go.”

“Jayce? Jayce Caldwell?” Charlotte thought in disbelief, her eyes widening. She hadn’t realized the man before she was Edward’s grandson, Jayce.

The room had been dim that day, and she hadn’t gotten a good look at him.

“I remember you,” Jayce said, ignoring Arthur entirely. His eyes remained fixed on Charlotte.

“Could you please release me first?” Charlotte’s voice wavered as she felt the blood draining from her arm.
