"I can't afford to entertain," Griffith said."Can't afford to entertain?" Charlotte nodded from a distance, turned around, and said, "Let's go."As she took a step forward, Griffith quickly approached her.The sun was setting, leaving behind rosy clouds and a soft glow gradually fading across the horizon. He reached out and grasped her wrist, causing her to stop and look back at him in astonishment.Griffith glanced at her. "Can't afford to entertain, but I can try to impress them," he said.He was cracking a joke, leaving Charlotte feeling somewhat speechless. After all, he rarely smiled, let alone cracked jokes."Well, thank you for the trouble."Lucy and Ava, standing nearby, blushed. Griffith's face showed no emotion, and Charlotte remained composed, but they sensed a playful banter between them."Young Master, the press conference is about to begin," Ash reminded.Griffith responded. Without releasing Charlotte's hand, he glanced at Lucy and Ava and casually said excus

It was a summer night, and the garden's jasmine was in full bloom. On the steps sat a boy with his back turned to her. Charlotte felt a wave of fear wash over her. However, the boy eventually turned to glance at her, his expression cold and distant.His eyes had a reddish tinge, and his gaze was icy, but there was no denying his exceptional handsomeness. Charlotte wasn't exaggerating; the teenage Griffith was striking, a heartthrob.With tentative steps, she inched closer."Go away," the boy said.Young Charlotte pursed her lips and decided to take a detour. Once she'd distanced herself sufficiently, she peeked her head out, determined to catch another glimpse of his face. Even though she was now hiding behind a pillar, he still noticed her.Suddenly, he lifted his gaze, locking eyes with her. Charlotte was frightened and quickly retreated, pressing herself against the pillar and patting her chest to calm herself. When she regained her composure, she gazed at the night sky for a l

"What else did you do?" Charlotte asked, her eyes appearing blank as she tilted her head, seeking answers.Griffith, due to his deafness, had honed his vision over time. He adapted more easily to prolonged darkness. He could clearly see Charlotte's expression and felt an impulse to pinch her ears, but he restrained himself. Instead, he lifted his head, avoiding her gaze, and replied, "You'll find out when we go outside."With that, he bypassed her and took a deliberate step forward, slowing his movements intentionally.Charlotte realized he was leaving and hastily grabbed his sleeve, afraid of getting lost. However, her fingers missed his sleeve, and when she tried again, she accidentally grasped his hand instead. She blinked in surprise, wanting to retract her hand, but he held it firmly."There are many people waiting outside," he explained.Charlotte nodded and quickened her pace. "Let's go then."Anxious to exit, she didn't pay much attention to their joined hands.Finally r

The fireworks burst into the night sky over Portchester City one after another. Passersby on the streets were mesmerized by the magnificent display, and the spectacle quickly became the talk of the town on the internet. Even the wealthy ladies on the rooftop couldn't help but marvel at the breathtaking show.Charlotte stood at the forefront, her gaze fixed on the sky. She feared blinking might cause her to miss even a moment of the beautiful fireworks."What is that?" someone exclaimed."Looks like words!"As the fireworks gradually subsided, a few faint words emerged in the sky. Charlotte squinted, looked twice, and finally discerned the content.—CS, I'm sorry.Her eyes flickered with surprise.People around her also realized what the words spelled out, and conversations buzzed with curiosity. Meanwhile, Ava had sneaked up to Charlotte and playfully poked her."You're amazing, Lottie!""Mm…" Charlotte was still dazed, her eyes fixed on the sky."What's with that response? C

"Cheers."Charlotte raised her glass, and they both took a sip of wine. She then placed her glass back on the table, glanced at the neatly cut steak before her, and expressed her gratitude to Griffith, saying, "Thank you."Griffith felt a sense of relief, realizing that her gratitude was genuine, and it was all in good fun."You're welcome," he replied.Charlotte picked up a piece of steak and savored it. When she was happy, she couldn't help but tap her feet lightly."Those fireworks must have been expensive, right?" she inquired."One hundred and eighty per piece.""Dollars?""Thousand...""Oh, that's quite expensive," she remarked, clicking her tongue twice. She then added, "But they were truly beautiful.""When we return to King City, we can set off even more.""Forget it. It's already challenging enough here in Portchester City. Will you dare to be so extravagant when we return to King City?""Why wouldn't I dare?"Charlotte gave him a meaningful look.'Alright, you
