Chapter 551
Charlotte put down her phone and was about to go to the bathroom when she received another text
from Michael: Do you know about Helena's marriage?
Marriage? Was Helena going to marry Hector?
Charlotte was a little confused.
Just as she was pondering over this, Helena had sent over an e-invitation.
Charlotte, I will be tying the knot with Hector on the 19th of this month. It is my sincere hope that you
will celebrate this union with us. I've also sent an invitation to Mr. Nacht. Hope to see you there!
Charlotte frowned and opened the e-invitation. It contained the wedding photos of the couple taken by
the beach. Helena and Hector, for all that was worth, made for quite the striking couple.
There was also a short love poem attached.
Charlotte could not be bothered to read it, for disgust was coursing through her veins. Back when
Hector was studying, he liked to do this type of thing to woo women. She never expected him to use

She also could not fathom Hector's alleged ignorance. Was he truly unaware that Helena did
something terrible for Luna? You're still going to marry her, despite all this?
Charlotte was about to settle down when her phone started ringing. It was Michael.
Just as Charlotte was about to hang up, the door suddenly opened, and Zachary strode in. He noticed
her sitting on the bed, the phone still ringing in her hands. “Did you not sleep? Or did you just wake
up?”
“I didn't sleep.” Charlotte hurriedly tried to hang up.
Zachary walked over in large strides and took her phone from her hands.
Charlotte wanted to snatch it back, but Zachary had already seen the caller ID.
She was flustered, out of fear that he would lose his temper like before.
Zachary, however, did not say anything, nor did he lose his temper. Instead, he answered the call and
put Michael on speakerphone.
“Hey, Charlotte, can we talk?”
Charlotte looked at Zachary weakly before asking, “Is something wrong, Michael?”
“Nothing's wrong, but I wanted to talk to you about Helena and Hector. I just found out and immediately
took the next plane here.”
“What does their marriage have to do with me?” asked Charlotte disdainfully.
“You already knew about them?” Michael seemed a little surprised. “As I said, I only found out last
night. It's shocking, to say the least.”
Charlotte did not speak but seemed to think that Michael was too naive for his own good.
It could be that Helena had deliberately concealed this from him.
But with this announcement, the cat was out of the bag.
“I really don't know what she's thinking. I knew that she liked Hector when we were studying, but Hector
was with you. Then he married Luna, but now he's marrying Helena?”
Michael was stunned by the whole affair. “This shows that Hector has a serious attitude problem. But
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe shocking part is that Helena wants to marry him and that she's now pregnant. It really pisses me
off.”
Charlotte was stunned as well. She had not expected Helena to be pregnant.
No wonder you're in a hurry to get married.
“Charlotte, I know that Hector was someone from your past. You shouldn't care who he marries. I do,
however, hope that this doesn't affect things between us. We're—”
“We're still good friends!”
Charlotte immediately interrupted Michael. Zachary's face had darkened considerably. She could not let
him finish that sentence.
“Well, that's right.” Michael breathed a sigh of relief and tentatively asked, “I heard that you and
Zachary are officially together? How is he treating you?”
“He is very good to me and the children,” Charlotte replied earnestly. “If all goes well, we'll get married
too!”
“Really? Congratulations!” Michael sounded crestfallen.
“Why, thank you,” said Zachary, breaking the silence.
