Chapter 1132

However, her words deeply irritated Otis.

Otis’ eyes immediately became dangerous.

"Pop".

He raised his hand and slapped Charlotte hard across the face.

Charlotte felt the pain and covered her cheek, with blood coming out of

the corner of her mouth.

Her ears buzzed, her brain hurt like it was about to split, and she

trembled with pain all over.

"Who are you to negotiate terms with me?!"

Otis took all his anger out in Charlotte.

After the seizure of power, the progress in the past few days was

actually not very smooth.

Some people submitted to him on the surface, but in reality, they were

not convinced at all, and some were even secretly plotting to overthrow

him. He had dealt with some of them, but there was still a constant

stream of opposing voices.

He did rush a bit this time. He should have waited for a better time

He also underestimated the prestige of General Ralph and Cecelia.

It had been difficult indeed to deal with those old guys. Now he had to

increase his manpower and hire another group of helps to keep an eye

on the old guys.

On the other hand, he was also stepping up his purging operations and

replacing all of them with his own people as soon as possible.

Frank was guarding Hill 372 Secret Hospital, and he could not find a

way to get in.

The most critical concern was the Hurley troops under Cecelia. The

soldiers of the Hurley troops had all received Cecelia’s special training,

and they were all good snipers. In the past, whenever a special police

operation requested a sniper, they often just borrowed from Cecelia.

Now, it's up to them to guard Hill 372.

His people could not even get close alive.

The only he could get Hill 372 was that he used heavy weapons. But

then everyone in the world would just know what happened and it

would not be good for his reputation.

This would never work.

On the other hand, General Ralph must have guessed that Cecelia was

still alive and he refused to compromise, which gave him an immense

headache.

Right now, he did need Charlotte's fake identity.

After all, he was now nominally taking over the military for the time

being for his ailing father-in-law and mother-in-law.

There was still a fundamental difference between an overhaul and what

he did.

When he had a firm grip on each of the key departments, he would kick

them out when the time came.

He must bear with it for the time being.

"Oh, Charlotte, you should be thankful that you are still somewhat

useful. Otherwise, you would have been a corpse by now." He admired

Charlotte's fearful eyes and scared expression with satisfaction.

But he wasn't satisfied.

“Do you think you can negotiate with me?"

"A good-for-nothing orphan whore. I can't believe I spent four years on

you."

"Now when I think about how I have slept with you for four years and

married a piece of crap, it's disgusting. How many people have you

slept with? You're not even as good as the prostitutes out there. You

have nothing but an evil mind."

"But you also got what you wanted, didn't you? Even though I cheated

you, you used me. All you used was the identity of the Heath family's

daughter, and does it matter who it was?" Charlotte said with the

courage she got from nowhere.

She's just the same as Otis.

She could see no essential difference between the two of them.

And he had got no rights to humiliate her.

Inside the room, the air pressure dropped to a steep minimum.

She felt the air was so thin and she could barely breathe.

Otis's angry face now looked just like that of a raging lion, which was

extraordinarily terrifying.

Suddenly, he stepped forward and grabbed Charlotte by the collar.
