The training room fell silent, and Charlotte could hear her heartbeat. She never expected Griffith to lie before her like this.She could distinctly feel the rise and fall of his chest as he breathed. At first, the movements were intense, then gradually slowed down, finally becoming even and natural. Standing at the side, she could feel him calming the restlessness in his body.Initially, she could still bear to watch. But later, it felt awkwardly intimate after seeing him furrowing his brows, relaxing his lips, and the slight movement of his chin, along with the subtle details of his heavier breath. She quickly turned away.He hadn't done anything, and she hadn't seen anything, yet she felt as if he had done it and she had seen everything.After a while, Griffith finally opened his eyes. Turning his head, his deep gaze fell on Charlotte, who was doing deep breathing exercises. A hint of a smile appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't help but curve his lips, saying, "Help me up.""

Charlotte couldn't resist asking, but the next moment, she remembered that she had promised not to reveal anything. She pondered for a while.Griffith had already guessed. "The hotpot restaurant that day."Charlotte was surprised. His mind worked fast."I just met her once and noticed she didn't get along well with Soraya."Griffith lowered his hand and flicked the cigarette ash. "I'm not very clear on who she is. I only found out about their situation recently.""What's the situation?" Charlotte asked."Eli and Tanya were married.""Married?""Yeah.""So, how did he end up with Soraya after that?""A few years ago, his affair with Soraya became known to his family, but his mother didn't approve.""His mother didn't approve of him marrying Soraya but agreed to marrying Tanya?"The logic didn't make sense."No, so he divorced Tanya."Ah, so that was what happened."He got together with another woman right after his divorce. What a scumbag," she concluded.Griffith, unusu

Griffith suddenly realized the importance of leaving some leeway to not completely burn bridges. He initially wanted to take this opportunity to ask about Tobias, but seeing her teary eyes, he lost interest in asking.This was because he suddenly realized that discussing Tobias now would disadvantage him. She was already emotional, and bringing up Tobias might make her think about the good times with him, which would not be good for them."Don't cry.""Who's crying?!"Griffith fell silent at her words. He saw her red eyes and said, "Yeah, you're not crying."Saying that, he pushed the tissue box in her direction. Charlotte snorted."Whatever, we're divorced anyway. Even if you keep acting like a jerk, it won't be my problem."Griffith felt a tightness in his chest. Then he relaxed, remembering they weren't divorced. That nitwit Eli finally did something useful."We still have a few more months," he said. "Just a few more months. It'll pass in the blink of an eye. When the tim

"Hurry, hurry, let me taste your tea." Charlotte suddenly came back to her senses and leaned against the window as she ordered Griffith around to make tea.Griffith did pour something for her, but it wasn't tea; it was a cup of iced cocoa, which was slightly sweet."Did you make this?" Charlotte asked in surprise.Griffith pointed towards the beverage counter. Charlotte looked over and inhaled sharply.A wall-like machine was placed nearby, accompanied by a tablet, presumably for placing orders. Once the order was placed, it could be made immediately.Seeing this, she bit down on the cup. Such wealth was enviable."If only my parents were still here," she said, sighing.Griffith hadn't expected her to say this, and he looked at her back."If my parents were still here, I could stay in a room like this," she said.Thinking momentarily, she turned and asked him, "Could I?"Griffith thought and said, "Considering the situation of the Scott family during those years, your father

Charlotte sat in front of the large glass window, her dark eyes fixed on the periodically appearing new fish species."What's that one?" she asked."Angelfish.""And is that a clownfish?""Yeah."For every question she asked, Griffith could provide a clear answer."Do you have to learn all this to keep fish as a CEO?" she asked.Griffith sat on the sofa behind her and said, "No.""Then how do you know all this?""I don't need to know this as a CEO. But it comes in handy if you're watching fish with someone who lacks culture."She turned to look at him, blinked, and tilted her head. What did he mean? The game suddenly began. Wasn't it an unexpected event that she was left in his room watching the fish?Realizing something, she cleared her throat and said, "So, you're quite good at being prepared.""Be prepared for any eventuality," Griffith said.Charlotte sat on the carpet, quietly turning to face the large fish tank again. The blue ambiance lights made her face glow softl
