Chapter 137 Familiar Place

Author: Escaping Bunny
Charlotte blinked upon hearing Nicholas's suggestion to seek Griffith's help. She didn't believe Nicholas had no connections at the Department of Commerce; he was just unwilling to assist, perhaps even enjoying the spectacle. After all, it was widely known that her relationship with Griffith was not amicable.

"He..." She began to explain but stopped. "You know our situation."

Nicholas smirked. "Since you're married, it wouldn't be right for Mr. Wilson to refuse if you ask, would it?"

Unable to resist, Charlotte retorted, "Believe me, he's quite capable of refusing."

Nicholas chuckled. "In a husband and wife quarrel, aren't they usually resolved in bed?"

‘Forget it. We're not even sharing the same bed anymore,’ she thought.

Leaning forward, Nicholas raised his brows and advised, "Sis, with Griffith’s temper, you have to coax him. Don't confront him head-on."

Hearing this, Charlotte took a sip of the tea and couldn't help but ask, "Do you usually coax him when you hang out togethe

    "You have a guest, so I’ll head off now," Charlotte said to Nicholas.Nicholas nodded and asked, "What date should we set this for?"Charlotte thought for a moment and said, "How about this evening? Today's weather is just right, and you can enjoy the sunset in the Wilson Mansion's garden.""That sounds great!" Nicholas said. "I'll make arrangements then. As for Griffith, try to invite him yourself. If he rejects you, I'll help persuade him."Charlotte felt that even though Nicholas might be treating this as a spectacle, his character was much more reliable than Griffith's."Alright," she agreed.She stood up, carrying her bag, and led the bewildered Krystal out of the office. Just as they reached the door, they encountered Wade, who was entering. Charlotte casually put on her face mask.Wade also spotted her and immediately recognized her as the woman who sat beside Griffith at the gambling table.He seemed like he wanted to say something, but Nicholas's secretary had already

    Charlotte thought for a bit and used her mother's surname. "Wallace."Wade nodded repeatedly. "Ms. Wallace, nice to meet you."Charlotte responded indifferently.Wade asked, "May I ask where you are employed?"Charlotte smiled and said, "I'm not employed anywhere. I'm unemployed."Wade recalled seeing her sitting next to Griffith and made some assumptions about her status.He had spent many years in the entertainment industry and was no longer surprised by anything. Many got into romantic relationships for money.Moreover, Griffith was not just wealthy; he also had an incredibly charming face. It was only natural for women to be attracted to both his money and looks."I see," Wade said.He thought a bit and asked with a cough, "May I ask why you're resistant to joining the entertainment industry?""I'm simply not interested," Charlotte replied.Wade smiled and continued, "That's quite rare."He glanced at Charlotte and said, "In our industry, those who are able to establish

  • My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back   Chapter 140 Giving Charlotte the Role

    Wade had heard many excuses from actors over the years, but being afraid of the camera was new for him.Charlotte could sense his disbelief. "Whenever I'm in front of a camera, I feel dizzy. My vision blurs, and I start trembling. There's even a chance that I might faint."Wade, although skeptical, began to consider her words."My new drama, 'South of South Mountain,' is currently in production. There's a small supporting role that only requires a few shots of the back and the side of the face. I think it would be perfect for you."Charlotte felt that that phrase, "what a small world," was incredibly apt lately. Katie’s role was now being offered to her."Doesn't this role belong to Ms. Hussey?" Charlotte asked.Wade furrowed his brow. "A role is just a role, and an actress is just an actress. There's no such thing as a role belonging to someone."It seemed that this old man was quite principled. Charlotte was starting to admire him."Well, take some time to think about it. If

    "Katie, what do you mean?" "In the video, she was the victim. If this gets blown out of proportion, it will tarnish the Wilsons' reputation. Do you think they won't take action? Moreover, there were so many witnesses at the scene last night. Why hasn't anyone exposed her?""Is it... fear of the Wilsons?"Katie rolled her eyes. She had lost hope in this dimwit. The day before yesterday, she asked her to do a task, hoping she would handle it smartly, but she didn't expect her to make so many mistakes.When Griffith talked to her about the past, it was nothing but sarcastic words.She wished she could have dropped dead right then and there."So, what do we do?" Linda asked."Pass me my phone," Katie said calmly.Exposing Charlotte would bring no benefit to the Wilson group. Charlotte wasn’t dumb, and she wouldn't tarnish her own image. Plus, there was Griffith; for his sake, Katie wouldn't do it.In the future, they would move forward together. She had to protect her man.Howev

    Charlotte thought Griffith was interested and immediately said, "I'll prepare more than a dozen dishes. You can choose whatever you want.""More than a dozen dishes, huh?""Yes.""So, you won't even send me lunch on a regular day, yet suddenly you want to treat me to more than a dozen dishes. You have a big favor to ask of me, don't you?""No, I just want to thank you." Charlotte tried to sound sincere.Griffith saw right through her and bluntly said, "You never cook for me, yet you call me at a time like this? If I were you, I wouldn't have the face to make this call."Charlotte clenched her teeth and quickly said, "What do you mean I never cook for you? Didn't I send you food before?""The past is the past. We're divorced now. Did you think I wouldn't notice how you've acted since we got our divorce papers?"Charlotte rolled her eyes.What nonsense! Did she have to lovingly send him prepared lunchbox every day after their divorce? Did he think that she was a fool?Besides,

    "Every couple quarrels. In any case, she's your wife. Don't you feel upset knowing that she's been mistreated outside?" Nicholas said.Griffith snorted coldly.They had been married for three years, and he had done so much for Charlotte. If it weren't for the fact that they were ‘married,’ he wouldn't have helped her sort out this mess. Yet, she didn’t appreciate him.She had insisted on getting a divorce and even forced him into coming up with those ridiculous fake divorce papers, but now she wanted his help again? Why should he give it to her?Now that she sought his protection, she brought up this ‘partnership’ nonsense.During their marriage, he supported her.But even though they were no longer married, he still had to assist her? Why should he?He should let her experience some hardship, wait for a year or so, and then serve her the authentic divorce papers. Then, she would leave with regret!Nicholas was purely there to watch the show. He had known Griffith for so many y

  • My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back   Chapter 144 Returning to the Old Mansion

    After ending the call with Nicholas, Charlotte shopped through the supermarket and had the kitchen staff at the mansion prepare appetizers and desserts.Once she had purchased most of the ingredients, she returned to the mansion. She arranged the garden area with her staff and assigned them to prepare the ingredients. She planned to start cooking when Nicholas and the others arrived.She kept busy until it was past four o'clock. Then she stood by the window and took two sips of tea.Suddenly, a call came from Nora."Hello, Nora?"For some reason, Nora lowered her tone as she reproached Charlotte, "What on earth have you done?"Before Charlotte could respond, another voice interjected, and Nora hastily hung up the phone.Charlotte was puzzled. She pondered Nora's tone, which seemed like she had made the phone call secretly. Otherwise, she might have loudly reprimanded her through the phone.A thought flashed through her mind. She was worried that someone had discovered the incid

    At five o'clock, Nicholas and Michael arrived at the Wilsons' mansion. The servants were busy in various places, but there was no sign of Charlotte."Madam went to get seafood and hasn't returned yet," one of the servants informed them."It's fine. We'll just wander around," Nicholas replied, opening a beverage can and handing one to Michael.Seizing the opportunity when no one was around, he leaned in and asked, "Guess if they're living together?"Michael, who typically wore a cold expression, seemed uninterested but countered, "If a man and a woman are sharing the same bed, would they treat each other like mortal enemies when they meet?"Nicholas raised an eyebrow.That made sense.He strolled around the living room and looked toward the second floor.From outside, they heard the sound of a car, indicating that Eli had arrived with Benjamin.It was the first time Helen, the housekeeper, had seen so many outsiders coming to the mansion. Since the hosts weren't home, she hurri

    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
