Chapter 1423

Chapter 1423 Was That Man Your First Love

Just as Beatrix's hand was about to reach Charlotte's face, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side and fiercely

grabbed her wrist. The force was so strong that Beatrix felt as if her wrist was going to be crushed.

Feeling disgusted, Jerry could not stand touching Beatrix for even a second longer. He immediately pushed her

away forcefully.

Charlotte's back was covered in sweat, and she looked as if she had just had a narrow escape. My eyes were so

close to being ruined by Beatrix!

Turning her head, she saw Jerry, who had an outstanding demeanor, standing there with a baseball cap on. Her

eyes lit up, and without any hesitation, she threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly. “Jerry, how did you

return so quickly?”

Beatrix had staggered back a few steps upon being pushed away by Jerry. Fortunately, Jamison was there to catch

her, preventing her from falling.

Upon seeing Jerry, her heart jolted with an inexplicable sense of apprehension.

Yet, Jerry did not even glance at Beatrix. Instead, he only gave Jamison, who was beside Beatrix, a brief look before

lowering his eyes to look at Charlotte.

“Did she bully you?”

“Yes.” Charlotte nodded, feeling wronged as she spoke to him. “She was the one who wanted to bet with me, and

she wouldn't even admit defeat. Thankfully, Jerry, you arrived just in time, or else my eyes would have been ruined

by her.”

Hearing this, Beatrix was so angry that her lips trembled. She wanted to curse back, but she did not dare to speak

up.

Jerry then asked, “Should we bully her in return?”

Charlotte rubbed her chin affectionately on Jerry's coat and said with a smile, “Never mind, I'll let her off the hook

this time since I'm so generous. Come with me to change my clothes, and then we'll go have dinner.”

She could not be bothered with Beatrix and Jamison. Instead, she climbed onto Jerry's back and asked him to carry

her to the changing room.

At this, Beatrix seemed to have been reminded of something, as she stared at the two of them with a strange

expression.

Back then, Beatrix had listened to Eurydice and secretly arranged for a professional to set up a trap, who slowly

lured Mr. Benson into it step by step, ultimately leading to the bankruptcy of Benson Corporation. However, the

person who took Mr. Benson's life was arranged by Eurydice, her cousin.

Why did Jerry attack Uncle Benedict, but not lay a hand on the Lowe family?

Could it be...

Jerry stood outside the changing room, having just lit a cigarette and taken two puffs, when Charlotte emerged,

already changed into her new clothes.

Her coat was unbuttoned, revealing a rainbow-striped sweater and a short skirt underneath. Her fair left leg

seemed to have been grazed, with dried blood still clinging to her skin.

Jerry walked over and squatted down, raising his hand to touch her wound. “Did you bump into something?”

In order to lure Beatrix to the golf course, Charlotte had deliberately let Beatrix push herself to the ground and

scraped her knee on purpose.

It only hurt initially, but the pain had gone away.

However, when she saw Jerry caring about her wound, she acted aggrieved and said, “It was Beatrix who pushed

me, and I bled quite a bit at the time.”

Upon hearing this, Jerry asked the staff at the court for some iodine solution and band-aids. He then helped

Charlotte disinfect the scraped area on her leg and put on the band-aid.

He gently touched her calf with the back of his hand, only to find it was very cold, causing his eyebrows to furrow in

concern.

“Jerry, you're so wonderful! Not only does my leg not hurt anymore, but my heart is also filled with sweetness.”

Charlotte hugged Jerry and passionately kissed him. However, his face remained cold, clearly in a bad mood.

Seeing this, Charlotte did not dare to make a fuss anymore. “What's wrong? Are you upset?”

“No.”

Jerry grabbed a hot towel to wipe his hands clean and got up to leave first. Charlotte hurriedly picked up her bag

and followed him.

Holding his arm, Charlotte said in a sweet voice softly, “Jerry, can you please not be upset? I promise I'll be more

careful next time so that I won't get hurt and you won't have to worry about me.”

Jerry remained silent.

Upon arriving at the parking lot, Charlotte went ahead to open the passenger door, but Jerry pulled open the

driver's door and climbed in instead.



Charlotte saw that he wanted to drive, so she handed him the car keys after getting into the passenger seat.

However, she held onto his hand tightly, not letting him take the keys away easily.

“Jerry, do you really not want to talk to me?”

She got up and knelt beside the center console box, speaking to him while leaning in to affectionately kiss him

twice. The faint scent of peach roses brushed against him.

Jerry was almost appeased by her coaxing.

He gently brushed Charlotte's hair behind her ear, gazing into her captivating eyes. “Is that man your first love?”
