Semua Bab My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back: Bab 671 - Bab 680

Feeling light-headed, Charlotte might have fallen asleep if it weren't for the bump on her head. She groggily opened her eyes, feeling dizzy. As she looked outside, rainwater washed against the glass, and the outside was sparsely populated with pedestrians, surrounded by trees."Mister, which road is this?""Marigold Street."Marigold Street? Charlotte frowned upon hearing that. Was there such a road in King City?She hadn't realized that something was wrong yet. When she tried to reach for her phone, she found it missing. Looking outside again, she discovered that the scenery was completely unfamiliar. It was not the route she took.She quietly reached out to touch the car door and gently pulled it. As expected, it was locked.Having experienced a dangerous situation with Griffith in Portchester City not long ago, she felt her body covered in goosebumps in an instant, shivering with fear. Looking ahead, the driver's face, once warm and smiling, had lost its expression, and he

"I won't run next time.""You'll wait to be killed?""Why would there be assassins in King City?"Griffith was speechless for a while. "Just in case."Charlotte thought for a moment. "That's too embarrassing.""Is your pride more important or your life?"Charlotte didn't say anything. After a while, with a head covered with tissues, her arms crossed, she said, "Next time, I'll make sure he's an assassin before running.""...Don't ask directly.""I'm not that stupid."Look who's talking.He pressed his temple and reported an address to the driver. "Go there."When Charlotte heard it, she pulled down a tissue and asked, "Not going back to the mansion?""No."Charlotte glanced at him and then remembered that she had a lot of questions to ask. Considering that William was at home, it would be better for the two of them not to meet."Hey, your business trip is over. Didn't you say you still had a few more days?" She waved her phone. "That's what you told me.""I can teleport,

"You're leaving again?"Charlotte stood up abruptly. Believing she was reluctant to see him go, Griffith was pleased. He reached out, pulled her, and seated her next to him. He wasn't skilled at comforting people, but he was adept at learning through trial and error.Lifting his hand, he placed it on her head and said, "I'll be back soon."Charlotte clicked her tongue and removed his hand. "What are you busy with, anyway?""I told you, looking for someone."'Don't try to deceive me,' she thought.Charlotte remembered the stepfather again and thought about the situation in Crookshire. She exclaimed inwardly, 'This is dangerous!'She had been worried about his back, but now that he was gone, she should be worried about someone else's back.Seeing her frowning, Griffith, although enjoying the moment, didn't want her to be too unhappy. He stood up, intending to find her a bottle of sweet wine. As soon as he stood up, Charlotte grabbed the corner of his robe.As he lowered his head

"Stocks and the like will definitely be frozen. You have assets abroad, right? I heard there's quite a bit. Tell me about it, and I'll help you take care of it. William is quite powerful, you know? I'll have William help you manage things. Of course, when you come out, we'll return everything to you intact."On the sofa, Charlotte was making calculations by counting on her fingers.The smile on Griffith's face gradually disappeared. He silently sat down, first sitting, then leaning back, and finally crossing his arms, looking at Charlotte's profile with a cold gaze, listening to her 'considerations' for him through gritted teeth.He took a deep breath. "Is this what you've been thinking about all those years I've been abroad?"Charlotte turned her head and looked at him sincerely, sighing. "Not exactly. I thought about it but also attained some legal knowledge.""Are you going to defend me?" he asked. "Not possible. But I'll hire a lawyer for you!" Charlotte said, painting a ros

Charlotte floated over, saying, "You haven't talked about the stepfather's matter." Griffith unexpectedly laughed, giving her a disdainful look. "The Godfather!""Oh, right." Charlotte slapped her forehead. "I forgot again."Sitting on his lap, she dared not move, keeping her body tense.Griffith embraced her waist, smelling the faint fragrance on her. His headache seemed to have subsided a bit.Forget it. Why should he bother with her?"Why not let William investigate it for you?" he asked.Charlotte adjusted her nightgown. "He's just a little kid. What can he find out?"Griffith looked at her and vaguely guessed why she didn't want William to investigate too much. So, she still had a conscience."What do you want to ask?" he inquired."Jude Winslet! The Godfather!" Charlotte ordered.Griffith rested his head on the sofa, looking up at the ceiling, and relaxed his neck. "They're the same person."Charlotte held her breath, adjusting her posture on his legs, and moved clos
