The Betrayed Heiress Is Now the CEO’s Obsession novel Chapter 48

Chapter 48

Zac’s assistant was efficient. By the next day, he had already sent over Charlotte’s home address.

It looked like a fairly ordinary residential neighborhood.

Zac narrowed his eyes.

“Jersey City, huh?” he thought.

As it happened, he had plans to head there in a few days anyway–for a business meeting with the Sullivan Corporation about a potential investment partnership.

“Charlotte, if you’re not going to come to me, then I’ll come to you,” he muttered to himself.

Charlotte submitted her resume to S&G Law Firm and got a reply almost immediately. They asked if she was available for an interview the next day. She confirmed the time and began preparing.

S&G was the top law firm in Jersey City, with a stellar reputation across the industry. Spending a few years there would be a huge boost for her Jcareer.

Vivian scoffed at her so–called integrity. That self–righteous pride would be her downfall.

That same night, Vivian reached out to Yvonne.

In Jersey City, everyone knew the Jasper Corporation pulled weight in every industry. Even though she was just a foster daughter, Vivian had been raised like a true heiress. Mrs. Jasper treated her like her own, and Sean had always protected her like a real sister.

Over the years, she had frequently attended high–profile business events under the title of “Miss Xander of the Jasper family,” and the public had accepted it without question.

She had done her homework. Though Charlotte was the Riley family’s only daughter, she rarely appeared at social events and had no interest in flaunting her wealth online.
