Chapter 259
"What do you mean by that? Do you think | can't afford a courier?" Charlotte retorted.
| challenged her, saying, "Go ahead and call one then."
"Fine! Get lost now, and I'll call one immediately!"
| sneered. "Call whoever you want. It's none of my business. I'm here to help Isabelle with her stuff, not yours.
Oh, by the way, Isabelle, is there anything here that belongs to her? If there is, I'll toss it out right now."
Caught in the middle, Isabelle awkwardly laughed. "No, no, William. It's all my stuff. Can you helpcarry
them? Charlotte doesn't mean anything bad. It's just that she's been getting threatening calls lately and is in a
bad mood. Please try to understand."
"Threatening calls?" | paused, surprised. "What threatening calls?"
Charlotte snorted, unwilling to answer.
Isabelle sighed. "I don't know who it is, but someone has been calling her from an unfamiliar number,
threatening her and telling her to watch out. They've been calling for several days now. She's been so scared
that she hasn't been able to sleep."

Was this really happening? Could it be Lucas?
Since | exposed his true nature at Victor's resort hotel last time, it seemed like he had disappeared from school.
It was only natural he would hold a grudge and seek revenge on Charlotte.
But when | looked at her face, | decided to keep quiet. If | asked her any more questions, | would only invite
trouble.
So, | stayed silent and accompanied them as we continued shopping.
As they walked and talked, they suddenly started discussing Lucas. | learned that Charlotte hadn't contacted him
since that incident, though she was still furious whenever she mentioned him.
"He's nothing but a smear on my life. If | see him again, I'll make sure to beat him up!"
Isabelle kept comforting her. "I'll join you. I've never seen such a shameless man. It's bad enough that he took
credit for your work, but then he tried to take advantage of you, too. He's just despicable!"
"Exactly! I'm lucky | was smart enough to stop him."
| almost laughed out loud.
| wondered if she could stop pretending to be smart. She was so naive that she didn't even realize she was about
to fall for Lucas' scheme. If | hadn't called Gordon to clear things up, she would have been completely crushed by
Lucas.
Charlotte seemed to be in a better mood after making a few more purchases.
As we walked past a smoothie shop, people in line immediately noticed us and gave us admiring and envious
looks.
"Damn it! How lucky is that guy to walk around with two beautiful women?"
"One has a gentle demeanor, and the other's cool. They're a perfect match! That guy tagging along is totally
unnecessary."
"Don't be envious. Can't you see that
l.ne
the guy's just carrying bags for them? He probably doesn't even have their contact information. He's just a
lackey!"

"Hey, if | could be a lackey for two beauties like them, I'd gladly carry their stuff!"
| was speechless. | wondered if they
could stop kissing up like that. It was their sycophantic behavior that
made these women so full of
themselves. If every man didn'\
tolerate their bad attitude, how could they act so high and mighty?
Too bad no one could hear my thoughts.
"Hey Charlotte, there's a boutique over there. Let's go check it out."
Soon, Isabelle pulled Charlotte into a boutique. | had no choice but to follow them.
The store was filled with all sorts of delicate trinkets. | wasn't interested in any of it, but | couldn't help but think
of Felicia.
She would definitely like this, wouldn't she?
