Mr. Chairman’s Devious Wife by Brey Mitchylle

Chapter 19

“What is this?“Alice Johnson could not hide her irritation the moment she entered Charlotte’s studio,

where she was currently recording. She waved the phone in front of Charlotte and asked for the

second time, “What the hell did you do?”

“What?” Charlotte glared at Alice. “It was a mere post clarifying everything…”

“You just posted about that man being your sister’s boyfriend and that the two of you were helping her

out. People are starting to talk about,” Alice. made a deliberate pause as she composed herself. “The

netizens are searching for your sister. You told me she dislikes this kind of attention, and yet you-”

“She agreed.”

“Sofia agreed?” Alice asked. “She agreed to reveal her relationship in public?” Alice found that hard to

believe.

“Is that the reason why you interrupted my break?” Charlotte rolled her eyes. Sofia never agreed as

Charlotte never informed Sofia about her post on her social media.

However, she knew that Sofia would not mind. What was wrong with telling everyone that he was

Sofia’s man? It was not like she mentioned her name or last name. She simply said that the man was

her sister’s man.

“You should have told me if you wanted to post something like this.”

“I wanted to have more personality,” Charlotte said. “I want them to know that I don’t have a team

checking my socials all the time.” She sighed as she started massaging her neck. “Look… I know that

you are concerned about this matter because you do not want to drag my father and sister, but I can

assure you, they would not do anything.”

Alice closed her eyes. “You still do not understand it…”

“What do you mean?” she asked.

“If you- you simply ended the issue with a statement. I told you to drag the issue until you announce the

date of your next release. We need your name out there.” Alice could not seem to fathom why

Charlotte would suddenly make a post explaining that she was with her sister’s boyfriend.

Instead of creating ambiguity, she gave an explanation that would end the issue and therefore, lose the

interest of her curious fans.

“You wanted me to be kind and nice. Here I am being kind and nice,” Charlotte said. She knew that

branding matters all the time. Her agency wanted her to create that nice and gentle persona because

of her face.

Explaining everything to her fans was a part of their branding. Moreover, she did this not just because

she wanted to clear things up. It was because of something else… something that her father promised

her.

She smiled at Alice.

“Have you read the comments?” Charlotte asked. “They were all good. Isn’t that what the company

wanted?” A good, nice, and kind girl who seemed bullied by her rich family is what everyone wanted.

Charlotte was confident that Sofia would not say anything about this matter as she was busy with

everything else in the company. Charlotte had seen Sofia with her designs and she knew that the

woman would spend hours drawing and creating without talking or even eating. She was simply too

distracted to focus on the media.

Alice frowned. She opened the comments and sighed. Charlotte was right. The comments were pretty

nice. Some of her fans even asked her to have a livestream with her sister.

“I will ask the team to check the comment section of your post and

immediately report those unpleasant ones,” Alice said. Right now, her primary concern was Sofia

Lockhart and Daniel Beaumont. Alice was aware of Sofia’s strong personality and did not want Sofia’s

possible actions to affect Charlotte in any way.

“How was your album?” Alice asked.

“I can’t write…”

“What?”

“I mean… I just finished taping. Can’t I get a rest?” Charlotte said. “A few weeks should do. I just need

to go somewhere and relax, I don’t know. I want to take a break.”

Alice’s face immediately narrowed. Their schedule this year had been booked since last year. “It was

your choice to sign the contract with the company.” The contract clearly states that she was supposed

to have an album released in the last quarter of the year. It was already August, and by now, the songs

should have already been finalized.

However, Charlotte simply kept saying that she could not write while. acting. So, the management

accepted her excuse and waited for her film to completely wrap up. And now… she wanted a break?

“Look, I know you can easily pay for a breach of contract, but-” What about her? Alice pursed her lips.

This time, she chose to work on Charlotte. alone even though Charlotte’s acting had always been

mediocre.

Alice always wanted to create connections using Charlotte’s family and use them to usher Charlotte’s

career. But Charlotte had been very difficult about almost everything. She was the exact opposite of the

kind and gentle woman that the agency wanted her to show to her fans.

“I know…” Charlotte said. She looked at Harper, who just arrived with coffee and some snacks. “I

know…” she said and leaned back on her chair.

Last night had been chaotic, to say the least. She spent the whole night. with Daniel and did not have

that much sleep. However, it was also Daniel who convinced her to accept her father’s proposal and



clear up the misunderstanding as fast as possible.

Daniel told her that he would propose very soon, and he did not want Charlotte’s fans coming after him

or Sofia. Charlotte tried to argue, but at the end of the night, she agreed. So she immediately posted

about it this morning. Right now, she chose to listen to Daniel as Sofia was about to receive her

inheritance.

Right now, they needed to convince her to sign the shares to Daniel as a gift for their wedding. The

notion is insane, but Charlotte knew that Sofia loved Daniel. It would not be impossible for her to do

that.

Besides, Daniel assured Charlotte that everything was going smoothly. Sofia always had a soft spot for

him, and he was taking advantage of everything.

Still, a part of Charlotte could not help but blame Sofia for everything. Without Sofia, she would not

need to hide her relationship with Daniel or pretend that she liked acting and singing just so she could

create her name in the industry. To Charlotte, Sofia’s existence alone was enough to ruin

her life.

Charlotte took a sip of her coffee to calm herself down. Then she started reading the comments on her

social media. Just as expected, everything is going well.

However, Charlotte was not done. She looked at the time on her phone

then she smiled.

All she could do now was wait.
