The Betrayed Heiress Is Now the CEO’s Obsession novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127

Charlotte couldn’t stop laughing.

“Come on, lan, you’re such a scammer. Two million for one photo? Who even sets prices like that on the spot?”

“Deal,” Sean said without hesitation. “Email it to me–sending it over the phone ruins the quality.”

Ian’s face lit up. He gave Sean a big thumbs–up.

“Now that’s what I’m talking about. I like your style!”

Charlotte was stunned. Her mouth opened slightly, but she ended up saying nothing.

Whatever. It wasn’t her money. He could spend it however he wanted.

She turned to take in the glowing sunset in front of her. The view was so beautiful it made her chest feel lighter, like she could finally breathe. She closed her eyes against the breeze, stretched out her arms, and let out a joyful shout.

The exhaustion from the past few days melted away in that moment. She felt more relaxed than she had in a long time.

Mia joined in, shouting alongside her. Their cheerful voices echoed through the valley, startling a few birds into flight.

Vivian dragged herself up the trail, breathless and worn out. She frowned in irritation when she heard Charlotte and Mia shouting like kids, her face full of disdain.

Standing beside her, Mandy rolled her eyes and muttered, “Ugh, that idiot Mia called me low–class? And now she’s up there yelling like that? She thinks that’s ladylike behavior?”

Suzy chimed in, “Mandy, don’t stoop to her level. Anyone who hangs out with Charlotte can’t be much better.”

He scanned the group, then turned to Vivian and handed her the DSLR.

“Vivian, how about you take it for us?”

lan was totally oblivious to Vivian’s crush on Sean. He figured she had been clinging to him earlier out of sibling–like closeness.

But Mia yanked the camera back out of his hands.

“Nope,”

There were still photos of Charlotte and Sean in that camera. Knowing Vivian, who knows what she might do? What if she deleted them or “accidentally” broke the camera? Then not only would the photo be gone, so would the two million.

Ian frowned.

“Why not?”

Mia muttered under her breath, “Brain–dead,” then said aloud, “Just trust me. Don’t let them take it. I brought a selfie stick. We’ll just use my phone.”

lan scoffed.

“Phone shots? Not even close to DSLR quality.”

“Not the same, but good enough,” Mia said as she pulled out the stick and mounted her phone.

“Lena, Charlotte–come stand next to me.”

Lena and Charlotte came over, one on either side of Mia

Sean moved to stand beside Charlotte Jordan stepped next to Lena. Ian shrugged and took his place beside Sean
