The table fell completely silent at Soraya's words. Eli calmly placed his cutlery down, his expression subtly changing. Meanwhile, Griffith continued transferring food to his plate, maintaining a poker face, giving no sign that he had heard Soraya's words.Charlotte and Lucy, the situation's original victims, now took on the role of silent observers, secretly smirking at the unfolding drama.Holding her glass of juice, Soraya pressed on, "That day, my brother had too much to drink and played a prank on your woman. He deeply regrets it and has said he wants to apologize."She believed that Griffith would grant her this favor in front of Eli. After all, it wouldn't do to embarrass her over a mere actress."Mr. Wilson, I'd like to propose a toast to you."Finally, she concluded her words.Griffith halted his movements, looked at her, and asked, "He wants to apologize?""Yes...""Was I the one who danced on stage and drank that day?"Soraya hesitated.Without any intention of sug

Charlotte deliberately walked a bit slowly and, after a while, reached the corner. She then cautiously peered around the corner.Sure enough, not far away, Soraya had grabbed Tanya, and they were arguing. Charlotte was too far away to hear clearly, so she pricked up her ears. She only caught one sentence because the girl had raised her voice, apparently getting agitated."I've already given you that check. I haven't taken a single cent from Eli. Please stop bothering me!"She couldn't hear what came next. Charlotte scratched her ear, wanting to listen more, but then heard a slap.Startled, she peered around the corner. The girl in the uniform was clutching her right cheek.Charlotte was taken aback, and her desire to watch the spectacle vanished. She saw that Soraya was about to strike another blow, so she stepped out from the corner. "Stop!"Upon seeing Charlotte, Soraya's expression briefly showed panic. She instinctively blocked Charlotte's view, then walked toward her to prev

The accident happened too suddenly. The moments before Charlotte fell, Griffith turned his face, his gaze locked on her, but his profile and body faced the hot pot.Clang!She fell heavily on the ground with the chair, and her waist felt like it was about to shatter. Before she could get up, there was another explosion in the pot.Her mind was in a daze, but then a figure suddenly appeared in front of her. A hand grabbed her arm and pulled her upper body up, dragging her several meters away from the still-raging hot pot.As she landed on the floor, she saw Griffith's sharp, dark eyes. He appeared unaffected by the explosion.Charlotte struggled to get up and instinctively reached out to grab his arm but hesitated. He had been very close to the hot pot just now. There was no way he hadn't been affected.The door to the private dining room was pushed open, and Eli rushed in, followed by a few waitstaff.The area around the table was a complete mess. The pot had been blown off the

From a distance, Charlotte watched as the police officers headed straight for Griffith's group. Craning her neck, she got a better look and realized that Griffith had walked alone in the car's direction, leaving Eli and Soraya behind.Once Griffith got into the car, his bodyguard closed the door.Charlotte asked him, "Did the police determine what was wrong with the restaurant?"Griffith replied, "Mm."She inquired further, "What happened?""I didn't hear."Charlotte clicked her tongue and said, "I'll go check."She was about to open the car door when Griffith said to the driver, "Drive."He didn't hear what happened, yet he wouldn't let her either.Lucy said, "Charlotte, let's head back to the hotel. Mr. Wilson should apply some medication to his injuries."Charlotte glanced at Griffith. He leaned back, and the dividing line of light and shadow cast on his face highlighted the reddened area on his chin.It was impressive how he had endured the pain for so long, considering

"What would you like?" Charlotte overheard the waitress ask Griffith. Although she didn't hear Griffith's response, she guessed it was probably coffee because he had brought a laptop, which indicated that he was working.She had originally chosen a corner seat, not too conspicuous. However, Griffith had picked the best spot in the entire cafe – good lighting, a view of the night cityscape, and a table that was ideal for working.There were only the two of them in the cafe, along with a dozing waitress who took forever to bring a cup of coffee. At first, Charlotte kept glancing at Griffith, but when she realized he hadn't noticed her, she continued reading her script and crying.Griffith was seated under the bright lights with a perfect view of the entire restaurant. In the corner, a woman was crying like a fool, and every time he looked up, he could see her. Coming down here to cry instead of sleeping?He stared at his laptop screen. The business partner in the video conference ass
