Charlotte picked up the plate and stood up, showing no intention of accommodating him."Where are you staying tonight? It's inconvenient for me to accommodate you since I'm living alone now," she said.Griffith was slightly displeased. He gazed at her and retorted, "Do you have any idea how long it takes to return to the city from here?"He had rushed over since getting off the plane, yet she intended to send him away right after discussing business."I have no idea, I'm not returning to the city anyway," she said calmly.She had no need to concern herself with him.Setting the plate down, she turned to face him and added, "Of course, as I mentioned before, Mr. Griffith, if you insist on staying, I have no choice. You can stay in the house, and I'll go stay in the yard."Griffith was speechless."Ash hasn't arrived yet," he added."So what?""I only brought two people with me when I got off the plane."Charlotte thought for a moment. On her way back, she hadn't noticed anyon

Just as they were about to have lunch after visiting the exhibition hall, a representative from D&Z Automotive arrived, requesting that the professor and the study tour group join a meeting at the company's office. They needed to hear the Head of the Asina-Pacific region's input regarding the upcoming car show.Charlotte and her fellow students were surprised that the professor had included them in this meeting.Seated in a spacious conference room, Charlotte couldn't help but steal glances at the towering buildings outside. This study tour felt like a dream.She swiveled in her chair, filled with excitement.Finally, the door swung open, and everyone rose to their feet. Charlotte, seated in the back row, also stood up. Even on tiptoes, she couldn't catch a glimpse of the Head. She only heard a magnetic voice saying, "Please take your seats."Her heart skipped a beat as the voice sounded strangely familiar.Sliding out of her seat, she craned her neck in the direction of the Head. A pi

Charlotte blushed and set down her phone. She blinked and glanced around, assuring herself that no one was watching. She let out a sigh of relief, realizing that no one was actually paying attention to her phone.After a moment of thought, she replied.Charlotte: [Right.]Without waiting for a response, she put away her phone. After leaving school, she returned to her residence early to review the checklist sent by Professor Camon to filter the questions.At 7:10 PM, there was commotion outside.She opened the window and saw that Griffith had returned.Taking the printed documents, she slipped into her slippers and rushed outside. The fragrance of flowers filled the air, and the moon hung high. She pushed open the fence to exit the small yard. Griffith was holding his suit as he stepped out of the car. He seemed to have had some drinks, and as the wind blew, Charlotte caught a whiff of alcohol.He looked at her, dressed in cozy sleepwear, holding a pen and paper, waiting for him

The room fell silent for a moment. Charlotte didn't realize that she could face her past so calmly. However, a storm of mixed emotions brewed in Griffith's mind. Doubt, excitement, regrets, and disbelief swirled within him.Unable to contain himself, he continued to ask, "Three years ago?""I hoped you would like me.""Further back."Charlotte took a candy from her pocket, saying, "Aren't your questions a bit repetitive?""You asked me, and I answered each one," he pointed out.She rolled her eyes and sighed, "Okay—"After a moment's thought."I hoped you would marry me."Cuckoo, cuckoo—Charlotte was startled by the cuckoo clock. She mumbled, "What an ugly bird."Turning her head, she noticed Griffith had stopped writing and was staring at her."What's wrong?" she asked.Griffith was temporarily at a loss for words. He sprung to his feet, startling Charlotte. Her wishes had stirred powerful emotions within him, so he went to the cupboard, opened a bottle of brandy, and

Charlotte had only been teasing Griffith, fully expecting him to decline the offer of the pork chop. However, to her surprise, just as she was about to withdraw her hand, Griffith swiftly took the pork chop from her.Her eyes widened.In the blink of an eye, Griffith took a bite, devouring a quarter of the pork chop.She pursed her lips.How irritating! That was the last one in the store!Observing her apparent displeasure, Griffith found it rather amusing. He handed the remaining portion of the pork chop back to her."Go ahead and eat," he said.Charlotte responded with a disdainful look.Griffith chuckled. "I didn't mind you.""Well, I mind you; you reek of alcohol," she mumbled. Charlotte turned her head away, took out a bag of chips, and began munching with an aggrieved expression. She resumed walking, and Griffith followed.However, midway through their walk, Griffith halted her."What's the matter now?" She turned around, appearing somewhat annoyed.Griffith gestured
