"He's quite pitiful. Given the current situation, he might die even without your intervention." Charlotte frowned.Griffith snorted and casually spun the ring on his index finger, saying, "If he starves to death, do you think there will be any meat left?"Charlotte was speechless. "As I said before, consider it an act of charity on your part, skipping a meal."Griffith looked at her. "I have a wicked heart. Do you think you can make a wicked person charitable?"Charlotte remained silent.Watching the time pass, she had no doubt that Griffith would indeed order someone to butcher it if the horse did not cooperate.Ash approached from nearby, followed by some people carrying half a crate of feed. The strange odor reached her nose from a distance.Griffith glanced at them and immediately said, "Open the gate."The people below complied, and the stable gate was opened. The horse still seemed lazy and uninterested. The next moment, Griffith walked in himself, leaving everyone astoni

Charlotte froze on the spot. Griffith had a knack for making people feel utterly inadequate with just a few words."Let me remind you again that you're Mrs. Wilson. Behave yourself! If our relationship falls apart one day, you'll be on your own," he stated icily, delivering a clear warning.These matters had ended up in his hands this time. If it drew attention to the old mansion and disturbed his elders, he would not hesitate to abandon her."I understand," she said."I see no sign of you being clear-headed. You still befriended Simon," he sneered.Charlotte took a deep breath, remembering why she had become friends with Simon. She also recalled her miserable state at the police station. Yet, Griffith had sent someone to bail Katie's agent.Suppressing the bitterness in her heart, she replied emotionlessly, "I wouldn't call it friendship, but I do owe him a favor for helping me.""It starts with owing favors, and with time, you can go even further," he remarked.He extinguishe

Charlotte knew Krystal must have had no choice but to call her. Otherwise, she would not have asked an outsider to come. She naturally agreed and, sitting in the corner, Krystal shot her a grateful look."We've already called the police, and they will discuss the situation with your parents. Krystal is fine, but it would be best for her to rest for half a day and recover," the teacher said.Charlotte thanked her and went in to talk to Krystal.As soon as she entered, Krystal immediately stood up and whispered, "Charlotte, I'm really sorry to bother you.""It's alright." Charlotte placed her bag aside and patiently asked about the situation."They're still after the debt," Krystal said, tears falling. "They said they'll take our factory if we don't give them the money."Charlotte quickly understood the situation at her home and felt that the focus should be on her mother. She then took Krystal out of school and went to her house. The Robinsons' residencewas quite large, nearly tw

Charlotte blinked upon hearing Nicholas's suggestion to seek Griffith's help. She didn't believe Nicholas had no connections at the Department of Commerce; he was just unwilling to assist, perhaps even enjoying the spectacle. After all, it was widely known that her relationship with Griffith was not amicable."He..." She began to explain but stopped. "You know our situation."Nicholas smirked. "Since you're married, it wouldn't be right for Mr. Wilson to refuse if you ask, would it?"Unable to resist, Charlotte retorted, "Believe me, he's quite capable of refusing."Nicholas chuckled. "In a husband and wife quarrel, aren't they usually resolved in bed?"‘Forget it. We're not even sharing the same bed anymore,’ she thought.Leaning forward, Nicholas raised his brows and advised, "Sis, with Griffith’s temper, you have to coax him. Don't confront him head-on."Hearing this, Charlotte took a sip of the tea and couldn't help but ask, "Do you usually coax him when you hang out togethe

Charlotte thought for a bit and used her mother's surname. "Wallace."Wade nodded repeatedly. "Ms. Wallace, nice to meet you."Charlotte responded indifferently.Wade asked, "May I ask where you are employed?"Charlotte smiled and said, "I'm not employed anywhere. I'm unemployed."Wade recalled seeing her sitting next to Griffith and made some assumptions about her status.He had spent many years in the entertainment industry and was no longer surprised by anything. Many got into romantic relationships for money.Moreover, Griffith was not just wealthy; he also had an incredibly charming face. It was only natural for women to be attracted to both his money and looks."I see," Wade said.He thought a bit and asked with a cough, "May I ask why you're resistant to joining the entertainment industry?""I'm simply not interested," Charlotte replied.Wade smiled and continued, "That's quite rare."He glanced at Charlotte and said, "In our industry, those who are able to establish
