Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon's Love

"Alice, how dare you ask me what's wrong? You've truly disappointed me!"

Charlotte wasted no time in accusing Alice, but Alice was not one to be trifled with either. She hung up the phone right away.

Hearing the dial tone on the other end, Charlotte paused for a moment before hastily redialing the number, but there was no answer. She called again, refusing to give up until Alice finally picked up the phone. "Charlotte, I'm warning you. Our relationship is purely business. I'm not one of your subordinates.

"Put away that princess attitude of yours. I've done what you asked me to do."

Alice did not spare Charlotte any face, and it was only then did Charlotte realize the true nature of her so-called friend.

She quickly dropped her princess facade and resorted to her cute act to appease Alice.

"I'm sorry, Alice. I was being too hasty this time. I'll be more mindful of my attitude in the future.

"Alice, you need to change your tactics! That woman isn't dead!" After admitting her mistake, Charlotte did not beat about the bush this time. She feared that Alice would hang up on her again. She went straight to the point and informed Alice that Lucy was still alive.
