The Betrayed Heiress Is Now the CEO’s Obsession novel Chapter 384

Just thinking about it now made Monica sick with regret.

Monica lowered her head, avoiding her gaze.

“I actually considered taking Zac home to meet my family,” Charlotte said quietly. “I even thought about investing in the Gibson Corporation.”

Monica’s head snapped up in shock. “Then why didn’t you?”

If she had known from the start that Charlotte was the daughter of Jersey City’s wealthiest family, Wendy wouldn’t have stood a chance.
