Chapter 5
Alice was stunned by the scene before her. She threw herself at James, her voice trembling: “James… who are they? How dare they break into your hospital!”
James was also shocked, never expecting to be surrounded by an entire team of fully armed federal tactical agents.
He opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything.
Just then, my superior pushed through the crowd: “Charlotte!”
He quickly pulled the cloth from my mouth and carefully examined my hands, then shouted to those outside: “Where’s the doctor! Get over here!”
Only then did James come to his senses. He looked my superior up and down and let out a mocking laugh.
So you’re Charlotte’s boss?”
Three piece suit? Is this the 1950s?”
My superior’s face darkened.
You’re Charlotte’s fiancé, CEO of Hawke Group, James, right?”
ames lifted his chin and even patted my superior’s collar with his hand, his face full of contempt: “Since you know me, how dare you help Charlotte in front of ne?”
lice also snorted coldly and roared at the doctor about to enter: “Someone calls you in and you obey like a dog? Don’t you know who runs this city?”
he doctor outside hesitated: “Miss Alice… there are many armored vehicles parked outside the hospital. They don’t look fake.”
imes frowned and turned to look at me: “So this is your trick, isn’t it, Charlotte?”
You really think renting a few cars and hiring some people to wear gear can scare me?”
le shook his head with a cold smile: “Please, I’m James Hawke. This little show isn’t enough to make me nervous.”
struggled to move my injured arm.
he sharp pain from the wound cleared my head considerably. I smiled and said: “Why don’t you look carefully at what they’re holding – ask them if they’re rops?”
learing this, everyone turned their heads toward the armed agents – and the assault rifles in their hands.
few seconds later, Alice screamed: “You’re crazy! If these are real weapons, I’m calling the police right now!”
My superior roared at her: “You don’t need to call anyone! You’re already under arrest!”
Arrest me?!” James panicked and stepped back: “Do you know who I am! I’m the CEO of Hawke Group!”
But the agents ignored his words. Not only were they unafraid, they moved even faster.
ames finally began to panic. He turned to his security team – the bodyguards standing by the door and shouted: “You useless fools, what are you standing there or! Come protect Alice and me!”
But those bodyguards were already handcuffed and didn’t dare move,
At this moment, James’s father Gavin rushed in.
.
As soon as Gavin entered, he was stunned by the scene before him his face instantly darkened.
Then without hesitation, he slapped James hard across the face: “You waste! What have you done?!”
“How dare you treat Charlotte like this!”
James covered his face, and before he could argue back, Alice cried and rushed over: “Daddy! Charlotte isn’t special! Can’t you see? Her mother deceived you, and now she’s doing the same thing to James!”
“Charlotte contradicted James in front of everyone imagine what she would do if she really married into this family!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Gavin turned and slapped Alice twice: “And you when did you get the right to speak like this?”
You dont even belong to the Hawke family. You’re just a foster child we adopted
You’ve been obsessed with James for years because you want to marry him, so you’ve been targeting Charlotte like this! Isn’t that right?”
Foster daughter?
No wonder I always felt they weren’t like ordinary siblings.
