Chapter 506: Hurt Him Back
"My dear, you’ve finally arrived! I’ve been waiting for you for so long!" Charlie exclaimed with excitement, a sly and lecherous grin spreading across his thin, sharp face.
Ella felt a wave of nausea rise within her.
She pressed her lips together and sat down coldly across from him. These foods wouldn’t be drugged—after all, Mason had introduced her to Charlie as a prostitute.
Charlie wasn’t stupid; he would assume a prostitute wouldn’t need drugging. Besides, with his obsessive tendencies, it was unlikely he’d resort to using something like that.
Ella reached for a perfectly roasted chicken drumstick without hesitation and began eating.
Charlie was a little taken aback. This woman... how could she be so impolite? But recalling Mason’s words, he reminded himself—what manners could you expect from a woman with no proper upbringing?
And yet, it was precisely women like this—full of challenges—that he liked.
"Your friend is Mason, isn’t he?" Ella asked nonchalantly, her eyes lifting slightly as she began replenishing her energy. That meant she was ready to confront him.
"Miss Davis, he’s the one who introduced you to me, so why ask such a question?"
Charlie openly scrutinized her as Mina walked over and took a seat beside him. "You’ve grown tired of me already, haven’t you?" Mina teased.
Charlie kissed Mina’s cheek affectionately. "You’ll always be my darling, too!"
