Roanne could not help frowning when she heard Charlotte's disdainful tone.
She stared at Charlotte’s cold, chiseled face and protested, "But Charlotte, I..."
There was a hint of embarrassment in her tone as she said, "I'm in love with someone else."
Charlotte immediately furrowed her brows upon hearing this.
She shot Roanne a cold glare. "You're in love with someone else? Who is it?
"Don't you dare tell me that Joshua Lynch managed to successfully seduce you with one of his men!"
Roanne bit her lip when she heard Charlotte utter the word 'seduce.'
"No, of course not."
Charlotte narrowed her eyes and stared at her sister with a dubious look. "Who is it, then?"
Roanne froze in her tracks.
The person she was in love with was none other than Theo.
She could not resist gentle, intelligent, and scholarly artists like Theo, but he was Joshua and Luna’s friend, after all.
If she were to say Theo's name, Charlotte would immediately be convinced that he had other intentions for approaching her, even if that was not the truth.
To Roanne, Theo had not been trying to get close to her on purpose at all. All he did was help Joshua and Luna lure her into their car and nothing more.
Roanne swiveled her eyes and suddenly recalled the name of the butler's son.
She let out a small smile and lifted her head to stare at Charlotte. "I'm in love with Mickey, the man that has been helping Rosalyn guard her drug warehouse."
