Charlotte hurried home, there were several police cars parked in front of the door, a couple of police officers were holding her dad to get into the car, Charlotte instantly cried, even as clueless as she was she knew what was going on and cried out and went up to them but was pulled away by the police.
Her dad only had time to tell her, "Baby, watch out for John".
Charlotte cried and watched as the police car pressed her dad away, and outside the Woodz house, a crowd of people stood, pointing, Charlotte's strength seemed to have been drained from her body, as her dad was pressed away, and before he left he threw down a sentence, "Be careful of John," what did that mean?
Why Dad was escorted away, she was completely unknown, suddenly remembered her mother and sister, warm teeth to dry tears, ran into the house.
The family is in chaos, two uncles, several cousins, cousins, her uncle, and cousins and other people are in the hall, mom sitting on the couch in tears, Maria in a red-eyed relief.
"Mom, Maria ..."
Her mother who was crying suddenly raised her head, warm only to see her eyes blood red, her expression instantly fierce, she agilely jumped up from the sofa, and slapped at Charlotte, Charlotte's white cheeks floated up with handprints, the pain made her staggering.
"Mom, what are you doing? It's not like it's any of my sister's business." Maria flew up and pulled her mom who wanted to continue hitting Charlotte, who's mind was even more blank.
Cousins and Uncles all looked at her with expressions like enemies, the gaze looked as warm as the back of a man, the heart was cold, they were all accusing her, they were all looking at her with resentment.
What did she do wrong? She didn't understand.
"Charlotte, you're too cheap to be with John to put your uncle in jail, what are you resting on?" First cousin Lily said.
"Hmph, you even stayed out all night last night, you went fooling around with John, can you stand up to uncle?" Second cousin Lucy said said.
"Sister-in-law, such a daughter you have not kicked out of the house, if not she likes John and stole all the information of her elder brother to Fang him, the Woodz Family to be defeated?" Second uncle shouted angrily.
...
Charlotte smiled, a wide smile that extended from her face to her gaze, a smile that frightened the crowd. Charlotte was the kind of woman who was sad to the core, but still managed to smile brightly.
That smile, as if it never disappeared from her face.
Maria put her arm around her, "Charlotte, it's none of your business, don't listen to them."
Maria twisted her head, splitting her hand and pointing at the front door, "Get out, you guys get out of my house from here!"
Woodz Family in F City is little famous, although not really upper class, but also rich, Herman Woodz started from nothing, from a small contractor to the chairman of the construction company, Woodz Family construction limited company in the industry is also a little famous.
John hollowed out the company, reported Herman Woodz bribery, suspected of commercial crime, has been detained by the police for investigation, for several months in a row, the city family type smuggling crime case involving a wide range of officials, enterprises, many people have fallen into the net, Charlotte's dad is more unfortunate to be suspected of this large-scale economic case.

Charlotte invariably became an accomplice, so many years, a focus on liking John, but never to think, why he always asked her about where Dad went, Dad talk about the details of the matter ...
John walked into the woodz home, standing with his hands on his head, he was in a white suit lined with his fit body, handsome features with hard lines, giving people a few cold and compelling feeling. Charlotte heart cold, the original these years of tenderness and goodness are all pretending.
Charlotte's mom seemed crazy, rushed up to hit him, was pushed aside by the bodyguard beside him, Charlotte and Maria went up to help her.
Their mother pointed her nose at him and cursed him for being ungrateful and gracious, John sneered and Charlotte, who had kept her head down, suddenly looked up and asked, "Mr. Miller, why?"
John because of her address a stunned, and then hooked up a cold smile, "why, I also want to let you woodz family taste the taste of broken family."
More than ten years ago, the Miller Family is still a small construction company, Herman Woodz acquisition of the Miller family, forcing the Miller family couple to hold hands and fell dead, leaving the young john strayed into the orphanage. Herman Woodz around the inspection, learned that the Miller family has an orphan, a moment of heart, adopted John Miller, he is almost and Charlotte grew up with, and finally entered the Woodz Family company, the Woodz Family is a small construction company. Finally entered the Woodz Family company.
And at this point, Charlotte realizes that John has long been successful and has his own business empire, and that the potential Woodz Family is just trying to bring them down.
Great, perfect plan.
"Shia, thank you so much." John's voice had a slightly malevolent edge to it, more than a thrill of revenge.
Charlotte straightened her back and showed a sweet smile, gritted her teeth, and said word for word, "Mr. Miller, the wind and the water are turning, you also have the day when the gutter turns over, I'll be waiting."
He seemed to see an eye-catching luster from her.
It was rare to see this woman, who always ran after him, reveal this kind of compelling radiance, and John's gaze darkened slightly.
Young she fell in love with a man, he was graceful, gentle, she was young and passionate, ambiguous impulsive, put all her strength to chase him, standing in f city on the roof of the tallest building, she cried out that one day she would marry him.
Since childhood, she has been running after him, he sometimes doting on her, sometimes distant from her, if that is, the more so, the more it stirred her desire to conquer, young Charlotte, have not understood, this is also a means.
Yesterday was her birthday, he asked her what she wanted as a gift, she shyly proposed to go out, John smiled, let her to the international hotel presidential suite waiting for him. She had wanted to refuse, Charlotte was clean and simple woman, but at the urging of her best friend, she agreed, and after a few more drinks, she arrived at the International Hotel in a daze and went up to the 22nd floor.
Charlotte just learned that he wrongly paid the object, regret a lot, back in the heart of the vicious thought, don't let her catch who it is, otherwise he will let him eat, that man even multiply the danger.
But at this moment, she was deeply grateful to the man last night, fortunately it was him, not John, otherwise, what is left of her Charlotte?
John Miller's dark eyes light Hua flow, backlit standing, she could not see the color, only to hear his cold laughter, "Charlotte, admit it, you love me, you lost, lost all over the place."
Charlotte, but because John turned into Cinderella.
The Woodz Family was completely defeated.
The company was annexed by John Miller, the Woodz family executives were all driven out of the woodz's enterprise by John.
Her second uncle, the third uncle to vent their anger on them, see them mother and daughter three down on the street also do not help, her uncle's family is also cold eyes.
In just two days, Warmth had tasted all the coldness and warmth of people.
She has a splitting headache, she is still a high school student, Maria is still in middle school, her mother has been working as a housewife for the past few years, her savings have been frozen by the bank and she is all alone.
Woodz's mom had undercut her jewelry and spent it all on a lawyer, she wanted to hire the best lawyer to defend Woodz's dad and reunite the family soon.
All the money spent on lawyers, mother and daughter no longer have spare money to rent an apartment, three meals a day are dry bread, the three around the river at night, sitting dumbly watching the night view, tourists look at them in amazement mother and daughter three.
Charlotte never imagined that one day she would be reduced to this.
But more tragic, it seems, is yet to come.
This day again with the lawyer to talk about Dad, John came in faith, Mom angry, Charlotte wooden, Maria cold, the lawyer gently shook his head, signaling them not to mess with him.
Today's John Miller is the chairman of the bewitched collective, that is a group that has risen rapidly in recent years, involved in construction, entertainment and aviation three fields, today's John Miller in F City is second only to VM international group president Markus Lee's young talent.
"I heard that the three of you, mother and daughter, slept on the street for two days?" John asked Charlotte, his gaze slightly deep.
"None of your business."
"Charlotte, let's make a deal, be my mistress and I'll guarantee that you'll be clothed and fed for the rest of your life, and that your mother and sister will be taken care of in the best possible way." John voiced.
Momma Woodz almost fainted with anger, covering her heart and gasping for air.
Charlotte's nails almost pierced into her palms, her body trembled from extreme anger, but she smiled sweetly, "John, I would rather do it with a stranger than let you touch it."
John´s eyes narrowed coldly, hearing her say that she was being fucked by a stranger, a surge of anger welled up in his heart, something stabbed at his heart, he let out a cold laugh, ruthless and cold, "Charlotte, you'll be begging me, I swear."
