Semua Bab My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back: Bab 921 - Bab 930

Before this, Griffith felt quite content with life. He wasn't particularly driven by a love for money or power. His motivation stemmed more from his background, compelling him to strive not just for personal desires but for stability and a means to live.Recently, however, he sensed a change within himself. The desire to attend work diminished, replaced by a longing to spend every moment with Charlotte, basking in her flirtatious banter, indulging in her playful whims, and teasing her in return. When the time came for Charlotte to send him off to work, they would linger at the door, prolonging their farewells. Once he departed, she would retreat to their room.The housekeeper, observing their growing closeness, remarked, "You and the young master are getting along so well these days."Charlotte, with a delighted smile, made her way upstairs. But then, the house phone's ring cut through the calm. Anticipating Griffith on the other end, she hurried back downstairs."Hello?""Charlot

"Go ahead and eat first," Charlotte said as she got up from his lap and gave his face a pat. She picked up her phone and sat down nearby. Meanwhile, Griffith handed her the half fish, helping her debone it."Hello?""Ms. Wallace."Charlotte paused, then glanced at her phone. It was Wade. Considering the need for deep collaboration, she realized she had to find a chance to be honest with him."What can I do for you?" she asked.On the other end, Wade hesitated for a moment, beating around the bush. Sensing something was amiss, Charlotte asked, "Has there been a change in casting?"When Wade sighed, Charlotte had a pretty good idea of what was coming. Last-minute casting changes were normal after all, especially since she didn't have fame to begin with. So playing the lead role was a bit of a gamble.After hemming and hawing for a while, Wade finally told her the truth. "We might have to cast another actress as the lead."While Charlotte felt disappointed, she kept it cool.She

"I'm happy that you and Griffith have a good relationship, and he supports you. However, everything must have a limit. It's just a role. If it involves some connections, it's not worth it.""Acting in a drama will get you some attention, but maintaining a relationship with the Sanchez family can bring many benefits to Griffith," Francine said in a gentle demeanor.She didn't directly express blame, but the implication was clear; she blamed Charlotte for not considering Griffith's interests.Charlotte was speechless.She had been offered the role by Wade based on her abilities. Mimi didn't play fair, so Griffith had to reclaim the role for her, but it somehow became their fault. She didn't want to admit fault, but she also knew that Francine was looking out for Griffith.Caught in this dilemma, she heard footsteps coming up the stairs. She turned her head and saw Griffith. Their eyes met, and Griffith noticed her sadness. He furrowed his brow."Finished with work?" Francine asked

This was Charlotte's first encounter with the twins. Before meeting them, she had imagined they would be like Michelle. Unexpectedly, they turned out to be two simple-minded people.After the meal, Mariah's expression darkened.Francine enjoyed their time together. She chatted with them for a long time and even watched a movie together before reluctantly returning to her room. Mariah didn't watch the movie. She sat in her room with a sour face, waiting for her children to return.When Emily and James returned to their room, they were still discussing the movie they had just watched.'Bang!' Mariah slammed her glass of water on the table, startling the siblings."Mom, what's wrong?" Emily asked, surprised."What's wrong?!" Mariah's emotions were running high as she pointed at them. "Do you two still have a conscience?"The siblings looked at each other, perplexed."You two better tell me that you're getting close to them just to deceive them!"Emily was shocked. "How is that pos

"If I had known this earlier, I would never have sent you both to be raised by Grandma!"In the room, Mariah was livid.The twins exchanged a glance, feeling somewhat helpless.James felt that Mariah was being ungrateful. Unable to say it directly, he could only express it tactfully, "Mom, you're already amazing. You started as a secretary, and now you're the Chief Financial Officer."Mariah hated it the most when others brought up her past. She sprung to her feet and pointed at James."What do you mean by that? Are you trying to insinuate that I intervened in someone else's marriage like those people?!"The twins remained silent.Emily put down the popcorn, muttering, "Even if we don't mention it, it's still true.""Emily," James interjected.Mariah looked at Emily in shock. Emily hugged a pillow and lowered her head. "Mom, please, stop arguing. Griffith has been kind enough to us. He has always treated us well and hasn't been overly harsh on you," she said.She gestured a
