Chapter 217 Falling for Arthur’s Wife
1/4
“Her name is Charlotte,” Jayce said in an unnervingly calm tone.
On the other end of the line, there was the distinct sound of something falling to the floor.
“W–What? What did you say? Say that again!”
Edward’s voice trembled, as if he couldn’t believe his ears.
“Charlotte?
Isn’t she Arthur’s wife?
Has he lost his mind?
He and Arthur were supposed to be friends!
And now he’s in love with Arthur’s wife?” Edward thought, finding it shocking.
The shock was overwhelming; Edward could hardly process it, and his chest began to ache.
Jayce only added fuel to the fire. “Yes, you heard me right. I love Charlotte, and I’m going to pursue her.”
Chapter 217 Falling for Arthur’s Wife “No way!”
Edward snapped, “She has a family! Don’t you know that?”
Jayce replied, “She’s going to get a divorce.”

Edward almost choked in disbelief. There was a commotion on the line, as if someone was helping him steady himself or giving him medication.
After a long pause, Edward’s voice came through, strained. “Jayce, have you no regard for your relationship with Arthur? That’s his wife. Don’t even think about it.”
Jayce’s reply was unnervingly calm. “I don’t care.”
Edward went completely silent.
Delia, having overheard everything, quickly interjected, “Mr. Caldwell, even if you love Mrs. Harrison, you can’t pursue her right now. She’s still married. Wait until after the divorce, okay?”
Jayce frowned slightly, pausing before answering, “Alright.”
Delia said, “Then give me the phone. Let me talk to Sir Caldwell.”
Jayce nodded and handed her the phone.
Delia spoke gently to calm Edward down. “Sir Caldwell, please don’t get too worked up. I’ve already talked to Jayce, and he

“Delia…” Edward started coughing violently after saying her name. “You’re that brat’s bodyguard. I’m counting on you. If he does anything wrong, you must stop him!”
“I will,” Delia promised quickly.
Edward seemed to catch his breath. “It’s good he has you by his side. Keep me updated about him.”
“Alright.”
After hanging up, Delia returned the phone to Jayce, biting her lip as she said, “Mr. Caldwell, you shouldn’t be so forward. It’ll put too much pressure on Sir Harrison.”
“Is that so?” Jayce looked at her with calm eyes. “Then tell me, what should I do? It’s my first time liking someone, and I’m not very good at this.”
Delia felt a pang of bitterness but still said, “At the very least, wait until Mrs. Harrison gets divorced. Once she’s free, no one can stop her.
“Alright, fine.”
Jayce nodded. “I’ll listen to you.”
Charlotte went upstairs, feeling emotionally drained.
She went into her study and began editing photos, but when she

opened the file, she noticed some pictures were missing.

They were outtakes–random shots she had taken. The subjects and scenes were all blurry.
Huh?
Where did the photos go?
She thought carefully. She didn’t remember deleting them.
She checked the camera’s deletion history, but there was nothing.
Her suspicion deepened. She called Tina. “Did you use my camera?”
Tina replied, “No, I didn’t. Is something wrong?”
“That’s odd,” Charlotte said, staring at the camera as her brows furrowed.
She remembered Sophia grabbing her camera earlier, but what could Sophia have done in such a short amount of time?
