Chapter 294


    Seeing that she didn''t speak, the driver reached out to turn on the radio and tuned it to the daily life


    channel. "Here, I''ll let you listen to our weather forecast."


    "Thank you, Mister." Charlotte came back to her senses.


    The driver was very friendly. He even helped to carry her luggage when they arrived at the


    destination.


    Charlotte waved at him as she pushed the trolley. The driver responded with a shy smile and left.


    She, who had just arrived in this city, was warmed by that. Since the first person she met was


    already so amiable, the others shouldn''t be that bad.


    Soon, Charlotte arrived at the joint tradingpany. Thispany specialized in buying and selling


    animals around the world. They had many social channels international-wise but rtively fewer


    local- wise. That was why they needed people from the zoo toe over and pick up the animals.


    All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Charlotte had already ordered her staff to arrange cars and people to help her. She only came here


    earlier to take a look at the animals.


    All the little animals were imprisoned in cages.


    The first group of animals was rtively small and energetic, including some precious Mini Lops


    and a few magnificent Antic canaries. They were all licensed by the country and allowed to be


    traded.


    Charlotte looked from cages to cages. Moving back and forth, she was so happy that she didn''t feel


    exhausted at all.


    It was not until she was a little tired that she sat down on the sofa in the living room and picked up a


    ss of lemon water.


    Standing on one side was the assistant from the jointpany. When she saw her sit down, she


    immediately came up to her and said, "Ms. Emerson, Ms. Schneider heard that you came. She''s on


    the way now. She said she wants to meet you no matter what, look..."


    Charlotte was taken aback. "Ms. Schneider wants to see me?"


    The assistant nodded. "Yes, I''m not sure if you have the time."


    "I do have time, isn''t Ms. Schneider known for never using her private time for business? If I


    remember correctly, she was called the female devil in the industry. She was smart, vicious, and


    sharp. She even had her own portrait in her mansion that''s worth 50 million dors." As she said


    this, Charlotte couldn''t help but frown.


    Curtis Schneider.


    This name, which sounded like a man''s name at first, was actually a well-known existence in the


    foreign businesspany.


    She had seven to eightpanies listed under her name, all of which were big enterprises.


    The one that traded animals this time was one of them. And the others included clothes, catering


    and so on.


    "Ms. Schneider said that if you are willing to wait for her, she''d like to go into the details with you


    personally." The assistant answered politely.


    "Of course I would love to meet the devil." Charlotte couldn''t help butugh.


    You couldn''t meet the devil anytime you liked to.


    The assistant smiled too and said, "You''re the first one who dares to call Ms. Schneider like that.


    Maybe this is why she wants to meet you."


    Really?


    Whenever someone from the industry mentioned her, he or she always called her the devil.


    However, Charlotte didn''t know much about her. After all, she became a CEO in an incredibly short


    amount of time. Strictly speaking, Shane ced her in this position, so most of the things she knew


    were only superficial.


    Maybe that was why she was able to call her by her nickname easily. After all, ignorants were


    fearless.


    She waited for more than half an hour.


    Charlotte actually didn''t mind. Every hour of dy she spent here was paid by the devil anyway.


    Squeak-


    Charlotte, who was ying with the rabbit, stiffened her body. She moved her ears, but soon she


    turned her attention back to the rabbit in the cage.


    The sound of high heels tapping on the floor traveled from far to near.


    She could tell that although the owner of the heels was a female, she was steady and organized.


    Every step she took was just right. If she was not mistaken, she also walked like she was on the


    catwalk. If she listened carefully, she could hear a crisp sound of collision as she walked. Perhaps


    she was wearing some jewelry.


    Charlotte still didn''t turn around. She yed with the rabbit. Her eyes turned into lines as she


    smiled.


    "Ms. Emerson, Ms. Schneider is here." In the end, it was the assistant who broke the silence.


    Only then did Charlotte stand up and look behind her.


    The woman behind her was d in a ck coat. The diamond leather belt on her waist was modest


    but eye- catching. ck silk stockings wrapped around her slender legs, and a pair of ck stilettos


    on her feet adorned her outfit.


    Charlotte raised her gaze and saw a pair of eyes that were no different from Shane''s. Those eyes


    seemed to capture millions of universes.


    Her ck hair was coiled up high, and her back was straight. She looked at her with a slight smile.


    Charlotte walked towards her and sat down in front of her. "The devil really lives up to her name."


    "You''re more shrewd than I thought." Curtis crooked her finger, and the person next to her


    immediately served her a cup of coffee. She took a sip and ced it on the coffee table. At the


    same time, her gaze swept across Charlotte''s face.


    Charlotte''s gazended on the furthest point of her parallel vision. She didn''t look at her for a


    second time.


    Curtis rubbed her wrist as the corners of her lips curled up into a cold smile. "You''re also able to


    keep yourposure better than I thought."


    "I''m guessing that you''re waiting for me to ask you why you wanted to meet me." "True, I''m waiting.


    But when you put it this way, I don''t see the fun of winning at all."


    "Winning or losing is meaningless. I prefer the feeling ofing face to face with my rival. I don''t


    like ttery."


    "You don''t need to tter me either. To Shane, I''m just an old woman who doesn''t even have the


    right to have dinner with him after all."


    So, it was about Shane.


    All of a sudden, Charlotte''s interest was piqued. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do the devil


    and the other devil like each other?"


    "Are you mocking me?" Curtis''s eyes suddenly turned cold.


    "No, I just figured that the devil might like the little white rabbit. For example, a rabbit like me, whose


    vitality is rtively strong and not afraid of the devil at all. I even worship the devil." Charlotte


    slightly lifted her chin to face her cold gaze.


    Curtis was indeed a devil. Her gaze was so frigid that it made her ufortable all over.


    This woman was as scary as Shane. Her charisma wasn''t weaker than Shane''s, but the devil


    couldn''t be considered as good-looking.


    Her face was too long, the corners of her eyes too


    lengthy, and the red on her lips were too bright. No matter how you looked at her, she looked like a


    vicious antagonist from a movie.


    "You mean, I should go look for a gigolo?"


    "Of course not. Just like how I have the right to sit in front of you, there''s naturally arge group of


    people who have the right to sit in front of Shane but don''t have the qualities topare to him,"


    Charlotte replied.


    Curtis suddenly burst intoughter.


    Charlotte didn''t expect that she would suddenly change her attitude. She also didn''t expect that


    when she smiled, her eyes would look bigger, and her lips would be thinner. She looked gentle


    and sweet but seductive in her own way.


    But soon, Curtis put on her poker face to face Charlotte once again.


    This was the second person who liked to act dumb.


    Charlotte couldn''t help but ce her and Avery side by side andpare the both of them in her


    mind.


    Avery used his gentle exterior to hide the determination and coldness in his heart. Curtis, on the


    other hand, used her cold exterior to conceal her softness.


    In fact, Avery was better than her.


    Charlotte rubbed her temples and snapped back to reality. "Devil, your smile is too alluring."


    "Little White Rabbit, I n to move to River City to expand my business."


    "Is this the strategy of a rival?" She put down her hand and looked at her with an innocent


    expression.


    Curtis shook her head. "River City is the center of your country. My business has already reached a


    bottleneck here. Only by going to River City can I have more room for development. I partnered with


    a zoo from River City this time so that I can get to know a shippingpany from River City."


    "Why didn''t you look for Shane?"


    "Heh. After seeing how the two of you look like on the news, do you think I''m still going to look for


    him?" Curtis looked at her in disdain.


    Charlotte was embarrassed for a moment and said, "Sorry, I didn''t think about that."


    "I don''t hate you, but I don''t really like you either. So I won''t make things hard for you. If you need


    anything, you can just mention it. I definitely won''t take the initiative to help you."


    "Of course, devil." Charlotte beamed.


    Curtis looked her deep into the eyes and slowly got up. The assistant next to her immediately


    scurried over to help her.


    Just when Charlotte thought she could let out a sigh of relief, Curtis''s voice rang out again-


    "I am a devil, but you are not an innocent white rabbit, though I liked the way you presented


    yourself."


    Charlotte''s heart was about to jump out of her throat.


    Had she failed to break down her walls?
