The Betrayed Heiress Is Now the CEO’s Obsession novel Chapter 468

Chapter 468

The day before Megan’s birthday, Charlotte got a call from her just after lunch.

“Hey, Lottie, make sure you come early tomorrow.‘

Charlotte asked, “Isn’t the party in the evening?”

“The party’s at night, but the cruise sets off in the afternoon. We’ll be sailing for two days.”

“Got it. What time are we setting sail?”

“We’ll head out once most of the guests arrive, but I want to see you early. Come as soon as you can.”

“Okay.”

The next day, the weather was perfect.

Charlotte slipped on the long blue halter dress she had bought at the mall, did some light makeup, and casually clipped her hair back. She didn’t go all out with a full glam look or a styled updo. It was Megan’s birthday, and she didn’t want to steal the spotlight.

Sean was already waiting nearby.

She packed a small suitcase with a few changes of clothes and toiletries. Once she was ready, Sean draped an arm around her and walked her out of the villa.

A sleek black Cullinan was waiting at the front gate. Sean’s assistant, Sam, was in the driver’s seat and took them straight to the harbor.

The sky was a brilliant shade of blue, so clear it instantly lifted the mood. A salty breeze swept in from the water, cool and refreshing.

Rows of white sailboats and yachts lined the harbor. But standing tall among them was a massive white cruise ship–sleek, elegant, and impossibly grand, like a floating palace.

This was where Megan was throwing her birthday bash.

A red carpet stretched from the dock all the way to the ship’s entrance. On either side, uniformed hostesses stood smiling, and white–gloved crew members helped carry guests‘ luggage aboard.

Charlotte walked up the gangway and soon ran into Megan.

She looked stunning today, dressed to impress. Her long mermaid gown shimmered in shades of blue and violet, the hem swaying like ripples on a lake. She looked graceful and regal all at once.

A dazzling blue diamond necklace hung around her neck, paired with matching earrings and a bracelet.

“You’re finally here!” Megan greeted her with a bright smile. “I’ve been waiting for you.”

Her eyes briefly landed on Sean beside Charlotte. That smile of hers softened, turning fair

So, Sean really came.

This was the first time he had shown up at one of her birthday parties.

Charlotte didn’t miss the subtle shift in her expression.

With a teasing grin, she asked, “Were you waiting for me-

-or for him?”

Megan playfully gave her a look. “Can’t I wait for both?”

“Happy birthday,” Charlotte said, handing over her gift. “This is for you.”
