Chapter 114 His Lackey is Here Too

Author: Escaping Bunny
Charlotte glared at him, her eyes seeming to spew fire.

Simon inched closer to observe her, finding that her current state resembled the small dog he reared.

He couldn't help but burst into laughter, standing up and looking down at her. "Tsk tsk, you would rather die than yield, huh?"

"Scram," she said.

After all, they were already at the police station, so it was not like she would die.

Simon bent down to look at her, teasing, "How about letting Griffith know about this fight and your trip to the police station? I wonder how he would react."

Charlotte's heart sank.

From the moment she felt safe until now, she had feared this outcome the most.

The commotion tonight was significant, and there might be videos circulating. If this came to Griffith's attention, she would be in deep trouble.

"How about it? Are you scared?" Simon continued.

Charlotte ignored him.

He seemed even more delighted, softly saying, "If you give me a little peck, I won't tell him. It'll be our little sec

    Arthur escorted a woman away as she thanked him repeatedly.Charlotte kept her head low, so she didn't see what the woman looked like, but she was certain that she was Katie's agent.After she stayed still for a while, Simon clucked his tongue. He then bent down and looked at her from below. "Crying, are you?""No way," Charlotte replied.She had sworn long ago that she wouldn't shed tears over Griffith again."In that case, kiss me quickly, and I'll get you out," Simon suggested.Charlotte took a deep breath and, unexpectedly, lifted her head. "Where should I kiss?"Simon was momentarily taken aback. His smile faded slightly, and he straightened up to look at her."No way. Are you that desperate that you would disregard everything and kiss me?"Charlotte sat down and tidied her hair, raising her chin slightly.The surroundings were messy, and her clothes were dirty. However, she sat there calmly, setting her apart from the others. She looked like a swan fallen from grace; as

    The moment their eyes met, Katie's heart trembled. She clenched her hand into a fist while cursing Linda for her foolish, turning everything into a mess.The man's voice was devoid of any emotion. "So, are you now forced to associate with these people?"Katie's breath caught in her throat. Since she returned to the country, this was the first time he had brought up their past, and he did it with deep disdain.She bit her lip and, after a long pause, said, "No, Griffith, I'm sorry. I didn't know Linda would do those things behind my back. Apart from acting, I don't know how to do anything else."Griffith opened his window, lit a cigarette, and looked out with a faint gaze.He seemed to be listening but also seemed completely indifferent.Katie continued to explain.Suddenly, a Porsche zoomed past them on the opposite road.Griffith squinted his eyes and sat up straight.Charlotte?At the traffic light, Charlotte hid inside the car. She had noticed Griffith's car long ago, and

    Inside the car, as a sexy girl leaned in for a kiss, Simon didn't react and instead gestured toward Charlotte.The girl pouted, grumbling a few words, and settled for handing over a drink instead.Simon took the drink and passed it to Charlotte. "Try this. It's a cocktail made with fruit juice."Charlotte sniffed it, suspecting it might be some sort of bizarre concoction. Surprisingly, it didn't smell bad.She accepted the drink and replied, "Can you lend me your car? I want to drive back myself.""No. Haven't you heard the saying? A car is like a wife; it's not loaned out," Simon said.He opened the door after unfastening his seatbelt and said, "Come on."Charlotte remained seated.Standing by the door, he leaned in and peered inside. "What a good girl. Does it really matter? Your husband won't come home tonight; he's quite busy."This comment hit a nerve.Charlotte was indeed upset. She knew Griffith wouldn't return to the Wilsons' mansion tonight. He would definitely be ac

    Charlotte struggled briefly against the person who grabbed her. When they reached a secluded area, the person suddenly let go of her.She turned quickly and, upon recognizing the person, was momentarily stunned.Ash took a step back, nodding slightly as a form of courtesy. "I apologize."Charlotte took a couple of deep breaths to calm herself. Once her breathing had settled, she scanned her surroundings.Was Griffith nearby?Ash continued, "The Young Master is upstairs. He asked you to go meet him."Charlotte was surprised. Griffith's car had been parked on the roadside just a moment ago. She had even glimpsed the people inside. How was he already sitting upstairs?When she thought of the incident with Katie, she felt disgusted. "No, I won't go."Ash glanced toward the racetrack nearby and said calmly, "Is it because you're waiting for a friend?"Charlotte suspected that he had already seen Simon, so she stayed silent.Ash made way for her and said, "Please go up. I'll bring

    Noticing his gaze, the man who had raised his glass toward Charlotte stood up calmly. "Mr. Wilson, please."Griffith raised his glass but didn't drink.As the man sat down, he continued, "Since we happened to meet each other today, there's another matter that I'd like to discuss with you, Mr. Wilson.""Mr. Browning, you're being too polite."Wade? Charlotte heard the name and recalled who he was.Wade Browning was a well-known director in the entertainment industry, and the film ‘South of South Mountain,’ in which Katie had a cameo, was his work.Wade looked at Griffith and chose his words carefully. "You recommended Ms. Hussey to us before, which was an honor for our company. However, upon further reflection, I think Ms. Hussey deserves a better role. Given her status, she could have greater opportunities."Charlotte was astonished and somewhat bitter inside. After all that had happened, she felt quite wronged.Griffith recommended the role in the movie for Katie. Yet, she had

    Charlotte moved her chair a bit closer to the gambling table, wanting to get closer to the game. However, the man beside her reached out and pulled her chair closer to him, positioning her within arm's reach. His arm was able to rest behind her if he leaned back.She sat up straight, avoiding any physical contact.While she did know how to play poker well, she pretended to be a novice. She asked the dealer to explain the rules and raised a couple of questions, acting as if she barely understood the game."Just treat it as a casual game; Mr. Wilson can surely handle a few wins or losses," joked the dealer.Charlotte smiled and said, "You're right, but who doesn't want to win?"She maintained a serious expression, feigning nervousness.The dealer began dealing the cards. Charlotte received her cards one by one and consulted Griffith before making any decisions."Mr. Wilson, do we want to call?", "Mr. Wilson, shall we raise?", "Mr. Wilson—""Do you not have a brain?" the man inter

    Simon entered the private room, carrying an air of nonchalance as if he were alone.However, Charlotte didn't feel relieved; instead, she felt panic.Without Griffith's gesture, Simon wouldn't have done this.She couldn't shake off the uneasy feeling. She sensed a chill run down her spine, fearing that Griffith's presence posed a dangerous situation.While she was deep in thought, a new arm settled on her shoulder. She turned her face slightly, and it brushed against the person's wrist. The faint touch left her puzzled.Simon sat down boldly and focused his gaze on her face while directing his words at Griffith."Griffith, can I have my woman back?"The room fell silent.Griffith burst into laughter, though the mirth didn't reach his eyes. His tone had a dangerous edge as he said, "Where is your woman?"Simon looked at Charlotte, still smiling but saying nothing. Charlotte felt anxious, wanting to move the man's hand off her shoulder but having nowhere to hide. Griffith whis

    The so-called provocation strategy was quite cunning.Not responding would lead to being mocked, while responding would play right into their hands.Whether he responded or not, it was a frustrating situation.Charlotte's remarks had put Griffith in a bind.No one in the room dared to witness Griffith's embarrassment. Someone took the initiative to suggest the pleasure of night horse racing."Horse racing alone isn't very interesting. We stopped doing that when we were teenagers."Simon looked at the person who spoke, smiling with a hint of mischief. "What kind of game do you find enjoyable, Mr. Dean?""Let's bet on the horses."The group became interested.Seizing the opportunity, Charlotte leaned forward slightly, her chest nearly touching the table's edge. Avoiding Griffith's grasp, she asked, "How do we bet?"Mr. Dean lit a cigarette and explained, "Of course, Mr. Wilson and Mr. Lewis won't need to participate personally. Each person will choose a horse, and we'll appoint

    Tanya's previous full-length mirror was still usable, but because it was small, she had to walk a bit farther every time she used it. Eli had long wanted to replace it.Little did he know, she got rid of many things in the house to make room for the new large sofa for him, including that old full-length mirror."How do you like it? Surprised?" He patted the mirror.Tanya smiled wryly and pointed to the large sofa. "And you? Surprised?" Only then did Eli notice fewer small items in the living room and a large new sofa. He suddenly chuckled. It was quite nice.He thought of her, and she thought of him. This winter was truly warm.Tanya abandoned the egg tart and hugged him again. "Oh no, this mirror is so big. There's nowhere to put it."Eli carried her with one hand and moved the mirror to the corner with the other. Sitting on the sofa, he thought for a moment, then hugged her and said, "Tanya, let's move to a bigger place."Tanya knew he had been thinking about this all along.

    Eli found it amusing. He pushed the head of the small money jar and couldn't help but say, "You gold digger! You love money so much, then why did you give the check I gave you to Soraya?"Tanya blinked and chuckled. "I only acquire wealth in the proper way. To be honest…" She pondered for a moment, then turned to look at him. "Probably because, at that time, I was just too fond of you like I am now."Hearing this, Eli felt a pang of heartache and leaned down to kiss her forehead. Tanya smiled, moved the gifts aside, and made some space for him.Just as they were about to talk, Eli's phone vibrated continuously. It turned out that Bridget was sending over the detailed preparation process for the wedding.Tanya scrolled through it and suddenly felt overwhelmed. Eli looked at it and also felt a headache coming. The two glanced at each other, sighed simultaneously, and leaned back.After they publicly disclosed their relationship, life continued as usual but became busier due to the w

    Eli being married was shocking enough, but then his wife was hiding right in the office. In the next half hour, Tanya heard wailing from all around.The atmosphere in their office was quite good, and everyone got along well. After coming clean, everyone joked around and teased each other."Nia, don't forget Mr. Ted, he's been cursing at you all along!""Yeah, he's been calling you a fool!""I heard it, I can testify!"Ted was furious and rushed out to hit someone. Tanya followed with laughter.Before leaving work, Amy indeed brought the cake and candies, sharing them with everyone in the building. Thus, the entire group gave them their blessings.From the office to the parking lot, Tanya received blessings. When she got into Eli's car, her heart was still pounding.Eli was happily eating his candy, feeling good. Especially now that he didn't have to sneak around anymore, he even turned the steering wheel effortlessly.Tanya, holding the cake, asked him in surprise, "Were these

    Tanya walked out of the room with her guard down and came face to face with Ted's sneaky expression. She paused.Ted gasped, his brain instantly turning blank.He looked at Tanya, covered his mouth with his left hand, and placed his right hand over the left with his eyes gradually widening.God! This was insane!Tanya regained her composure and glanced in Eli's direction. Eli remained calm, glanced at the fruit plate on the table, and said, "Should we take some down to share with your colleagues?"Tanya nodded. She glanced at the still-disheveled Ted and kindly handed him a tangerine."Sir?"Ted swallowed, looked at Tanya, then at Eli. Finally, he settled his gaze on the tangerine in her hand, mechanically accepting it.Tanya turned to look at Eli. 'Look, you've scared my superior.'Eli shrugged."I'm leaving," she said.Eli nodded and escorted her to the door.Ted followed them out and was sent into the elevator by his boss. As the elevator doors closed, he let out a long

    The deep blue bedsheet was neatly spread out. But the two pillows lacked pillowcases, exposed in a sorry state.Eli placed his hands on his belt and turned to look at Tanya. "Is this also your doing?"Tanya leaned against the door frame, only poking her head in, smiling sheepishly."I accidentally drooled while sleeping that day and dirtied the pillowcase. Knowing that you're a neat freak, I took them all off to wash," she said. She raised her hand and swore, "The pillowcases have been washed and are in the cabinet at home."Eli wasn't interested in the pillowcases' whereabouts. He remembered when Amy called him, saying Tanya missed him and wanted to touch the sheets and pillows after waking up.Nonsense!He took a deep breath, then turned his head to Tanya with a frightening smile. Tanya realized the danger and tried to run, but he grabbed her by the waist."Hey, what are you doing?" she said.Eli tossed her onto the bed and followed suit."What are you doing?!""Collecting

    Tanya sat upright in the office. Eli stood before her with his hands behind his back. "Come on, explain."Tanya's eyes darted around. "Do you believe me? It's because I missed you too much. When I came to your place, I couldn't help but take away everything related to you." Eli scoffed. "Including the toilet paper?"Tanya pondered seriously.Eli tapped the coffee machine and pointed to the plug that had been pulled out, saying, "If the coffee machine wasn't too heavy, would you have taken that too?"'This brat has no conscience at all. Does she even understand what a cold shoulder is?'While he was reminiscing in her room, she made a fortune in his office!Tanya blinked and gave him an embarrassed smile. "If you think about it from another angle, I love you deeply. If we couldn't reconcile and you came back to see all this, you would hate me. Hate represents love, and love means you can't forget me. My obsession is so deep; I want to stay in your heart forever."Eli fell silen

    "You should buy something while visiting. Do you have enough money in your account? If not, I will transfer some to you," Mrs. Moran said on the phone.Tanya didn't want money; she just wanted to hear some advice. She knew her parents' financial situation wasn't good. Due to illness, her stepfather had retired from his position as a butler of the Sterling family. Although the Sterlings provided a retirement package, Mr. Moran was getting old, and he had a son. She heard that his son's business had lost a considerable amount of money in recent years. As a stepdaughter, she had already received enough help from them, so how could she ask for more money?During her university days, she didn't ask her family for money. If she could find a part-time job, she would, and if not, she would endure it just to avoid causing her mother trouble."Mom, I don't need money. I have enough."When Mrs. Moran heard this, she felt even more sorry for her.Since her ex-husband was useless, Tanya suffer

    After breakfast, Eli called Bridget."Why did you send her a check? Do you have nothing better to do?"Bridget had just arrived home and begun playing poker with a few old friends.She threw out a card, rolled her eyes, and said, "It's the first time I've met my daughter-in-law! What's wrong with giving her some money!"Eli was speechless."Madam, you came up and threw 500,000 dollars just like that. Aren't you afraid of scaring people?""What should I do? Throw 50,000 dollars instead? That's too stingy."Eli was speechless. Holding onto the railing, he glanced downstairs and saw Tanya ironing her coat in the living room."I almost got dumped because you caused a scene," he joked.Bridget threw the cards while chuckling. "It's good to be dumped. With your unruly behavior, someone should make you suffer a bit.""Are you really my mother?""If you still want to be a good son, hurry up and go through the procedures, live a proper life with Tanya, and try to give me a grandson n

    "What did Her Majesty tell you?"Tanya nearly lost her composure, fighting back laughter.Bridget said nothing more as she left with Benjamin, leaving Tanya and Eli to return to the apartment. The journey back was silent, with Tanya deep in thought. Upon entering, Eli halted her at the entrance.Exhaling deeply, Tanya reached into her pocket and withdrew a check. Eli's gaze fell upon it, noting it was only for $500,000. As he moved to take it, Tanya tucked it back into her pocket. On the bar, a spread of breakfast awaited them - fried eggs, sausages, fruits, and vegetables. Despite the inviting display, Tanya's attention was on Eli."Don't you want breakfast?"With the situation still unclear, Eli's appetite waned. Nonetheless, knowing Bridget's nature, he remained calm. Seating himself opposite Tanya, he nibbled at a sausage, noticing her lack of interest."Is everything alright?" he asked, concerned.Tanya shook her head.The oversized sandwich Bridget had ordered had already
