My Reborn Story Is Insane

Chapter 311 A Substitute

Rex said, "Boss, I was wrong."

Charmaine remained calm. "Wrong about what?”

Rex admitted, "I shouldn't have secretly followed you up the mountain."

Well, he managed to get around it, but still didn't explain why.

Charmaine wasn't about to let him off the hook. "Tell me the real reason."

Rex finally gave in. "Boss, are you in a relationship? Why have you been sneaking around behind our backs?"

Charmaine almost choked on her drink when she saw that message.

This Rex...

He's a bit outrageous.

If this had happened before, Charmaine would've angrily scolded him for such a ridiculous comment.

But now...

Why did she feel a strange, nervous sense of guilt?

Charmaine, feeling awkward, tapped out a reply on the keyboard heavily, "Stop overthinking. I have important things to do."

Rex replied, "What's so important that you can't tell us? Are we not serious enough, or is it that what you're doing isn't serious?"

Charmaine felt a headache coming on.

She hadn't told Rex and the others about working as a maid at the Cross Residence because she knew they'd

make a fuss.

Now, if she told them...

It would probably cause even more chaos.

She rubbed her forehead, deciding to come up with a vague excuse to brush him off. "You'll find out soon, don't worry."

Not bothering to answer any more of Rex's questions, she hung up and shoved the phone into her pocket.

Just as she was about to head upstairs to change, she suddenly heard a commotion outside the door.

"Ms. White, Mrs. White, you can't just come in."

"Where's Charmaine? I just need to talk to her for a moment, then I'll leave."

Ignoring the objections from Alfred and the others, Freya barged in.

Agatha was Freya's unscrupulous backer. Alfred and others were not afraid of Freya, but they dared not stop

Charmaine stayed where she was and said, Tm here. Just say what you want to say?

As she spoke, Agatha glanced at her.

"What a seductress. I can't understand what Emyr sees in you!noveldrama

With a look full of disdain and contempt, Agatha's arrogant and rude demeanor made Charmaine realize where Freya's snobbish attitude came from.

Grandmother and granddaughter were exactly alike.

Alfred's expression changed, his posture stiffening as he said firmly, "Mrs. White,

Ms. Nelson is Mr. Emyr's fiancée. Please show some respect"

Freya laughed, as if she had heard something ridiculous.

She stepped a little closer to Charmaine.

Alfred and the others watched her warily, but Charmaine gave them a calm, reassuring look, then turned her attention back to Freya as she walked right up to her.

"Charmaine, do you really think that highly of yourself? Tak, tak, I truly pity you."

Freya leaned in slightly, holding her phone with a smug grin and began fiddling with it. She lowered her voice so only the two of them could hear, "You know the Cross Group building? The top floor? I bet you'll never reach it. See this? This photo is sitting right on Emyr's desk.

"He already has someone in his heart, someone he cherishes deeply. No wonder he's been so kind to you- turns out, you look a little like the woman in that photo."

Freya spat out each word as if to pierce Charmaine's heart, "At the end of the day,

no matter how much you act like the favored one, you're nothing but a substitute!"

Charmaine was stunned.

She stared at the photo Freya proudly showed, clearly meant to provoke her.

For a moment, Charmaine felt confused.

And that was exactly what Freya wanted.

Seeing the stunned look on Charmaine's face, a rush of satisfaction filled her heart.

If she couldn't have him, then Charmaine couldn't either!

Charmaine, weren't you so full of yourself, acting all high and mighty with Emyr's support? You even had the nerve to team up with Basil and mock me!

Freya's eyes gleamed with malice as she watched Charmaine, still in a daze. She leaned in again, her voice cold and sinister. “No matter how similar you look, you're still just a substitute. Soon, Emyr will cast you aside, and when that happens, I'll make sure you're on your knees begging me?

Then, she laughed heartily and left satisfied.

As they walked away, Agatha cast a warning glance at Charmaine with a meaningful gaze. "If you're smart, you'll leave the Cross Residence now. A sparrow can't aim for a high branch. Be careful, or you'll fall apart.

After they left, Charmaine stood frozen, still lost in thought, unable to shake the shock for a long time.
