My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 2304

"You can call me Charlotte," Zero, or rather, Charlotte Calhoun, said.

Sterling could not resist and teased, "Can I call you Charlie?"

Everyone turned to him awkwardly, and Avery patted him on the shoulder. "Bro, maybe skip the jokes for now."

"Heh, sorry..." Sterling mumbled.

Charlotte did not seem bothered and continued, "My name was Charlotte before I moved to Gorgeous Country. You can call me that if you prefer."

"Okay... but wait." Puelo quickly redirected the conversation. "Can you explain why you’re here now and why we were brought to the Land of Nion?"

Charlotte nodded and, without much expression, explained, "It's simple. Since you’re trusted members of Universal Group, there's no need for secrecy. I showed myself because I wanted to lower your guard by meeting you face-to-face. Fairness is crucial in any transaction." She then pulled out a contract.

"This is the agreement Mr. Hughes signed with us. I'll be your ally, but only temporarily," Charlotte explained, handing over the contract.

Sterling, still curious, asked, "Where do you get all your intel? You dug up stuff about BrightState so easily. How exactly did you do it?"

"It's simple..." Charlotte started, but then she suddenly vanished from their sight, only to reappear behind Sterling. "It's thanks to my ability."

If Charlotte had not spoken, the group would not have noticed her presence.
