Three Treasures: Spoiled Wife Goes Wild-Chapter 1690: Coincidence

The arm was suddenly grabbed.

Charlotte Thompson turned her head and found a few unfamiliar men standing behind her, clearly with ill intentions.

A warning rang loud in Charlotte’s heart, and instinctively, she wanted to free herself from the grip on her arm.

But the current situation was very unfavorable for Charlotte.

If she reacted too strongly, who knows what consequences might follow.

Therefore, although her face lost color, Charlotte tried her best to remain calm.

"You’re just a washed-up celebrity. Our Mr. Carter taking a liking to you is your fortune!"

The man twisted Charlotte’s arm hard, causing her to frown deeply in pain.

Charlotte thought she should have checked the almanac before going out today, or how else would she encounter such things.

But no matter what, this matter couldn’t be separated from Riley Thompson!

Perhaps it was because of something Riley did earlier that provoked this man, as he raised his palm, ready to slap Charlotte fiercely when he caught her.

Charlotte’s pupils contracted tightly, and just as she was about to lift her leg to directly resist the man, a hand intercepted the man’s action first.

Charlotte let out a breath, but just as she turned to see who it was, her face instantly turned unpleasant.

Leon Battleson.

"Isn’t this the dog following Mr. Carter around?"

Leon’s expression was calm, yet his palm gripping the man’s wrist kept tightening.

The man’s expression instantly contorted with pain.

Clearly, this man also recognized Leon Battleson, and despite the sarcastic words, he trembled as he spoke:

"Mr., Mr. Battleson."

Leon Battleson let out a humph, then with a twist of his wrist, the sound of breaking bones followed by the man’s scream of pain.

"Go back and tell Ethan Carter to be more careful in the future; not everyone is someone he can afford to mess with."

After speaking, Leon released his grip on the man, even taking out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe his palm.

The man dared not resist, holding his limp wrist as he hurried away with his companions.

Seeing Leon Battleson in front of her, Charlotte instinctively retreated a few steps to put some distance between them.

"Thank you."

Regardless, Leon had rescued her, so Charlotte politely expressed her gratitude.

Catching Charlotte’s action from the corner of his eye, Leon Battleson’s eyebrows moved, and he immediately smiled at Charlotte, a stark contrast to his previous indifference.

"I didn’t expect to meet you here. How did you end up encountering Ethan Carter’s men?"

Although Leon’s tone was full of concern, Charlotte still felt a bit uncomfortable hearing it.

Suddenly recalling her encounter with Riley earlier, when Charlotte looked up again, she eyed Leon with full caution.

She didn’t believe what just happened was a coincidence.

However, seeing Charlotte’s expression, Leon seemed puzzled, blinking innocently.

"What did I do to make you look at me like that?"

"Nothing."

The only thought in Charlotte’s mind now was to stay away from Leon Battleson.

But as Charlotte expected, Leon extended his long leg, blocking her path.

"Are you dining here with friends?" Leon asked with interest.

His tone was familiar, as if he and Charlotte shared a close relationship.
