“Yep, guess who?”

“The popular young star recently?”

“No, no, think bolder.”

“Bolder?”

“Yasmin Jackson!”

“What?”

I was taken aback, “Jane, you’ve managed to network into that circle now?”

Yasmin Jackson, one of the four top actresses in the entertainment industry. She became over 20 years ago. Her family background was quite impressive, but no one has dug up anything substantial over the years. Some say it was either fake news or her background was so extraordinary that ordinary people wouldn’t be able to find anything.

After taking a break from acting a few years ago and moving behind the scenes, she had become a significant player in the entertainment industry. Every appearance she made was as talked–about as any top celebrity.

“This isn’t my connections.” Jane shook her head, laughing. “It was Yasmin who saw the dress you designed for last month’s fashion week and liked it. She had her agent contact me, asking if I could make an exception and reserve a private custom slot for them.”

She was worried that I wouldn’t have the energy, as I only offer two private custom slots per month. However, these were all designed using my identity abroad.

No one knew that the designer behind the Charlotte Jewelry was actually still Charlotte.

She poked my forehead. “Do you think you’re still the Charlotte from two years ago? Now there are many celebrities waiting to book our private custom slots, all wanting to shine on the red carpet.”

I teased her, “What about Yasmin?”

“Well… she’s not an ordinary celebrity. She’s a bigwig among bigwigs, someone we need to treat carefully. We can’t afford to offend her.”

Jane hesitated, changing the subject. “But seriously, what are your plans now? I don’t believe you’ve just

returned for this.”

I rested my elbow on the sofa, supporting my head with my hand as I looked at her. “When I left two years ago, I was in a poor state, and there were some unresolved matters.”

At that time, even surviving was a struggle, leaving no room for anything else.

The grudges with the Shaw family.

The division of shares between the Charlotte Jewelry and the RF Group.

“So what are you planning to do first?” asked Jane.

“One step at a time.” I pursed my lips. “You have an appointment with Yasmin the day after tomorrow, right?”

“Yes, she’s coming to Jelaston to see her daughter,” said Jane.

Yasmin was still single, but last year she suddenly announced that she had found her long–lost daughter. Many netizens were envious, saying that being born into a wealthy family was also a skill.

I got up and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge. Then I’ll head to Jeswood now to see Grandma.”

“Shouldn’t you get rid of the jet lag first?”

“I slept on the plane, so I’m not tired.”

“Alright then.” Jane relaxed, handing me the key to an Audi. “Here, the car you bought. It just came back from the dealer yesterday.”

As I exited the building, I saw a brand–new Audi RS7.

The summer heat in Jelaston was unbearable.

Even the wind was hot.

After a short while, I rolled up the windows and turned on the air conditioning.

When I arrived in Jeswood, I headed straight to the care home.

After I moved to Frankes, Grandma had woken up under traditional medicine treatment, but she still suffered from impaired consciousness.

Her symptoms resembled Alzheimer’s.

When I arrived at the care home, I hurried inside with my bag and brushed past a group of black–clad bodyguards pushing a wheelchair.

The man in the wheelchair was wearing sunglasses, with his head lowered, seeming rather listless.

But his aura was very cold.

He looked like someone with a very bad temper.

Entering the ward, the caregiver saw me and was somewhat surprised. “Ms. Wilson, you back in the country?”

She was someone I had arranged through Jack.

I felt uneasy leaving Grandma without any familiar face around.

“Yes, I just arrived today.” I smiled. “Where is Grandma?”

“She’s resting in the bedroom. This afternoon, a Mr. Smith came to visit her, talked with her for a long while, and left only after she fell asleep. Oh, he just went out. Didn’t you run into him?“.

“Mr. Smith?”

I glanced sharply toward the door and asked urgently, “Was he with a group of bodyguards?”

“Yes, did you see him?”

1 didn’t bother answering. I turned and rushed outside!

When I ran out, a black Continental had just closed its door, and the remaining bodyguards were getting into another vehicle.

“Frank!”
