Everyone was cursing Simon inwardly for causing a scene. Eli was the most frustrated person in the room that he could not even focus on the cards. He casually removed his coat and watch and tossed them below the glass table. Griffith was close by, he gazed sharply at the watch. He remembered Simon was also wearing a watch. The brand was…He narrowed his eyes and scoffed. It seemed like Charlotte was here with him tonight, not by coincidence. Everyone else exchanged confused glances, uncertain of what was going on.Charlotte felt her heart skip a beat. She got up to get some water. As she was returning, Allison brought over the wine and cards and naturally sat at Charlotte's spot. Charlotte felt displeased but quickly replaced by relief as she did not have to sit close to Griffith.When her eyes met Griffith's icy gaze, she lowered her head hastily and sat next to Nicholas. Allison began shuffling the cards, wondering what game to play since there were many players. However, some sai

The crowd was shocked to see Griffith and Simon competing for Charlotte. Everyone knew Griffith and Charlotte were on bad terms, and rumors of their divorce had been circulating since the beginning of their marriage.Michelle was furious upon hearing Charlotte's words."Are you crazy? Do you find it satisfying that they're fighting over you?" Michelle exclaimed.Charlotte ignored her. She could not care less if they started fighting as long as she was not involved. She just wanted to get out of there."Are you afraid he will settle the score with you at home?" Simon insisted on dragging her into this matter."No," Charlotte responded without skipping a beat. "I'm afraid he will dislike me."The room fell silent."Everyone in King City knows that I'll follow him no matter what. After all these years, he's finally begun to look at me more favorably. With all these deceitful things you've stirred up, will he still treat me well?" she added.Griffith scoffed.Meanwhile, Simon seem

Griffith knew Charlotte was not an easy woman to deal with. She had her ways of enchanting people. He snorted lightly, closed his eyes, and ignored her. When they reached the house, she intended to help him from the backseat, but he smoothly got out of the car on his own.As they entered the house, Helen was waiting for them. Griffith went upstairs while Charlotte went to the kitchen to get the pills for his hangover. Helen was quite pleased to see them getting along well recently.Charlotte sighed at her pitiful life before she carried the pills and a glass of water upstairs. In the master bedroom, Griffith was resting against the bedside."Take the pills before you sleep," she said.Griffith opened his eyes and glanced at her."What did you buy at 10 o'clock in the morning?" he asked.Charlotte paused for a moment, trying to recall. She remembered buying a watch. Seeing her expression, Griffith knew she had remembered."It has nothing to do with Simon, right?"She struggled t

Charlotte felt her pent-up anger had dissipated with that kick earlier. If it were appropriate, she would have burst out into laughter. Not wanting to offend him all at once, she planned to leave wrapped in the blanket.Griffith grabbed her ankle and pulled her down along with the blanket. She fell into his embrace and bumped into his forehead."Ouch!"But it seemed Griffith did not feel the pain. He cradled the back of her head, forcing her to look directly at him. Charlotte was taken aback. She did not expect that he was still clouded with lustful thoughts even after that kick. He gripped her chin and shifted his gaze to her red plump lips."So, you've gained some courage, huh?" he sneered, then bit her lips without holding back."Ah!" Charlotte screamed.Then, he let go of her, and she ended up sitting on the floor."Go back to your room," he said."Griffith, are you cr—""Or climb the bed if you won't leave!"Charlotte was speechless at how unreasonable he was.

Peter was already annoyed. He didn't even bother about the flowers as he decided to deal with Charlotte first."Mr. Atkins," the employee interrupted him."What's the matter?" Peter was displeased."These flowers…""Bring them in." Jennifer tapped on the table.The employee seemed embarrassed. He glanced at Charlotte and said, "These flowers are for Miss Charlotte."Charlotte was stunned.Jennifer sprung to her feet with a darkened expression. However, before she could say anything, the employee continued, "Mr. Sterling had someone deliver them.""You mean Benjamin Sterling?"

He hopes that these flowers will make your day," the employer said to Charlotte.Charlotte looked at the bouquet of sunflowers accompanied by various colorful blossoms. She felt touched, as she never expected Benjamin to be so considerate, considering they just became friends.
