The Betrayed Heiress Is Now the CEO’s Obsession novel Chapter 503

“What’s she so smug about? Sooner or later, Mr. Jasper will dumper,” Zoe thought bitterly,

After Zoe left, Sean immediately noticed that Charlotte’s mood had shifted.

“What’s wrong, Lottie?”

“That woman just now… she seemed to have some kind of strange hostility toward me.”

Sean frowned slightly. “What makes you say that?”

He hadn’t really looked at Zoe earlier, so he missed the flash of disdain and mockery in her eyes. But Charlotte had caught it.

“She didn’t exactly look at me in a friendly way,” Charlotte said evenly. Then she glanced at the man across from her with a faint, teasing smile. “Another one of your admirers?”
