Chapter 1570


    “This is truly despicable,” Lupine cussed. “What should we do next?”


    “I...” Charlotte was about to speak when a dozen messages came through on her phone. When she


    checked, she found that they were all links to news articles sent by Lucy.


    Reports of the three kids not being Zachary''s biological children were spreading like wildfire. Assuming


    Zachary''s identity, Chris held a press conference in which he vehemently leveled Charlotte with various


    usations and actively portrayed her as some reprehensible monster!


    Charlotte was shocked to say the least.


    He even went as far as to confirm all the rumors about Charlotte''s plots to kill her own husband and


    scheme after the Nacht Group''s wealth.


    Public opinion was now stacked against Charlotte, and even the children were not spared!


    Negative coverage of Charlotte was all over the inte, and some even went as far as to intentionally


    dig up dirt on her father and other rtives to besmirch them.

    In no time at all, the name “Charlotte Lindberg” became synonymous with


    “vicious woman.”


    Both the inte and major media outlets all derided her as the new era’s she-devil. One of the titles


    read: Unable to value a prize catch like Zachary, she had to climb thedder by hook or by crook. The


    woman is ruthlessly ambitious andpletely unconscionable!


    Charlotte was shaking all over when she gripped the phone. Although all of this was to be expected,


    she could not stomach the awfulnguage that was used by manyizens to denigrate her family and


    even her own children.


    “This is too much!” Just listening to the things said on the news channel was enough to make Lupine


    livid.


    “Damn that son of a gun, Chris! I wish that I could shoot him myself!”


    “His wretched life isn''t worth anything, but we still need him alive to lure out Jesse,” Charlotte sneered


    under gritted teeth. “Rest assured that no good woulde to him!”


    “Ooh, this is so maddening!” Lupine thumped her fists against the steering wheel.


    Charlotte closed all those tabs and then exited the browser. Afterward, she looked calmly to the outside


    of the windows and exhaled,


    “Thankfully, Robbie, Jamie, and Ellie don''t have to go to school now, and won''t find out what''s


    happening out there.”


    To that point, Lupine dared not continue that conversation. Without news of Robbie and Jamie


    currently, their fates right then were the most important question...


    Toot, toot—


    At that moment, Lupine''s phone suddenly rang, and she hurriedly answered, “Hello, Morgan!”


    “Have you all ascended the mountain? Be careful out there.”


    “Why? What''s up?”


    “I don’t know which dastardly thing leaked our address in Northridge and the ce is now swarming


    with reporters. I’ve just chased some of them off but a couple of daredevils skirted around the side of


    the ridge to snoop on us. Urgh, it''s simply infuriating!”


    That jolted Lupine into silence as she regarded Charlotte in shock.


    Charlotte furrowed as she looked and met the former''s eyes. Indeed, there was some media convoy


    driving off the mountain and were variouslying their way.


    “Those cars are almost upon us. What should we do?” Lupine looked to Charlotte. “Should we try to


    avoid them?”


    “Step on it. We''ll go straight at them!” Charlottemanded.


    “Roger that. I''m on it!”


    Lupine immediately hit the elerator and sent the car hurtling directly toward the media vehicles


    Though this stretch of mountainous road was doublened, there were many narrow and sharp turns


    that made it extremely dangerous to navigate.


    That prompted those cars to brake abruptly, causing those behind to crash into a pile.


    Before they knew it, Lupine''s car had swept past them like the wind.
