Chapter 216 Go Back and Check on Him

Author: Escaping Bunny
Ava was not a native of King City; her hometown was in Parve City, Quinsmore Province. She had come to King City with her parents at a young age. She had a better understanding than Charlotte of human nature and the world's ways.

"I acted as meek as a quail back then. When they were causing trouble, I wore a smiling face. Otherwise, before Simon could speak up, I would probably have received a few more blows," she casually said, making Charlotte tear up.

Thinking about it, Ava wouldn't have had to endure all this suffering if it weren't for her.

Ava noticed her mood and made a dismissive noise, saying, "It's no big deal. Back in the day, we had a crazy and eccentric customer who beat up half of our team. Our manager even took us to apologize together. That person's arrogance was beyond belief."

She sighed, adding, "In our line of work, the income is quite high, but if you stay in this industry for too long, your heart becomes numb. I've already bought two houses in my hometown, and

    For a brief moment, silence enveloped the downstairs area. Helen regained her composure first and grabbed Charlotte's arm, whispering, "Please try not to provoke Young Master these days."Helen's tone implied that it was only natural for Griffith to have a bad temper these days."Is there something important happening?" she asked.Helen glanced at her and said, "Don't you know?"Charlotte was puzzled. "Know what?""His mother's death anniversary is coming soon."Charlotte remembered that date precisely: April 7th. However, she found it strange. Every year on his mother's death anniversary, the old mansion would observe a day of fasting, and offerings would be prepared. But Griffith often only made a brief appearance and didn't seem to attach much importance to it. Charlotte felt he acted somewhat disdainfully, as if he didn't want the people in the old mansion to offer sacrifices to his mother.With a sigh, Helen walked away.Charlotte intended to quietly go upstairs but receiv

    The man glanced at her indifferently, then picked up the car keys from the coffee table."Are you going out for a drink?" Charlotte asked.Griffith didn't bother to respond and simply left. Charlotte opened her mouth slightly, feeling like she had done her best. Accompanying him was out of the question. She lowered her head and poured herself a cup of tea.Suddenly, a cold gust of wind swept in from outside, and Griffith stormed back in, his anger palpable. Startled, Charlotte looked up at him. "What's wrong?"The man raised his hand, his eyes filled with incredulous disbelief and impending rage. Charlotte blinked and took a step towards him. She noticed something in his palm, causing her to gasp and quickly step back.His face turned pale, and he struggled to control his facial expression. His arms stiffened, keeping himself at a distance, and he barely gritted his teeth to ask, "What is this?"Charlotte swallowed hard and stammered, "Uh, this... It looks like paint.""Hmph!" T

    Griffith didn't doubt that the chicken was a gift from Julie; he just wanted to slaughter the damned chicken at that moment.Charlotte could see his intention. She quickly pulled out her phone and said, "I'll video call Julie!"Without giving Griffith a chance to react, she initiated the call.Two seconds later, the call went through. On the screen appeared Ash's earnest face. Charlotte glanced at Griffith's gloomy expression above and hurriedly said, "Could you please call Julie over?""Sure," a male voice came from the call, surprising Helen and Griffith.The fact that she had Ash's contact information didn't surprise Griffith. The fact that she had his Instagram handle made him curious.They exchanged glances. Nervously licking her lips, Charlotte soon heard Julie's serious yet soft and gentle voice through the phone."Julie!"With Julie's voice protecting her from afar, Charlotte felt somewhat relieved. She smiled and said, "Julie, your Brother Griffith wants to video chat

    "Julie will be able to tell! Don't kill it!" Charlotte tried to persuade him earnestly.Griffith, however, sat down on the sofa downstairs, having tossed away his car keys. He was in no mood to go out."If we don't kill it, it will sleep in your room tonight." He raised an eyebrow and looked at Charlotte, then told Helen, "Take it upstairs and hang it by her bedside."Helen hesitated, thinking Griffith might have lost his mind. "Master, the Madam's bedside is also yours."Charlotte and Griffith paused simultaneously."I'll sleep in the study tonight.""He's sleeping in the study tonight."They both spoke in unison.Helen looked at both of them, burst into laughter, and said, "Never mind, I'll take the chicken back to the backyard."She turned and left, and Charlotte heaved a sigh of relief. She glanced at Griffith, who was sitting on the sofa. The man said, "Later, you can carry it back to your stupid room yourself."Charlotte added, "Chicky clucks, especially at night.""

    Ash brought Julie to the house early in the morning, but they didn't see Charlotte at the dining table."Isn't she joining us for breakfast?" Ash asked.Griffith's face was even darker than when he heard this question last night. He gave Ash a sideways glance."Why are you so concerned about her?"Ash replied seriously, "I'm concerned about her because she's your wife."Griffith put down his spoon.Ash probably realized the ambiguity of his statement and corrected himself, "I mean, I'm concerned about the lady of the house."Griffith sighed, no longer pursuing the matter, and crossed his arms, leaning back in his chair to observe.Ash said nothing more, focusing on peeling an egg for Julie. Julie, full of excitement and happiness, finally sat down to eat."Where's Chicky?" she asked.As soon as she mentioned the chicken, Griffith's mouth twitched involuntarily. He couldn't help but recall the fruits he had eaten last night without much thought. Now, even thinking about it mad

    Everything had calmed down considerably after the incident at the Lewis family's mansion. For several days in a row, Charlotte went to work cautiously, fearing a group of people might appear and kidnap her. She even reminded Ava repeatedly.However, Michelle had no intention of taking action.With her team, including Lucy, they worked overtime putting on performances. Because they were promoted well, they didn't have to worry about getting an audience now. However, without their shows being fully sold out, their box office fell behind Jessica's."If this continues, we're going to lose," the girls in the dressing room said that evening, their enthusiasm fading compared to the past few days.Charlotte tried to console them for a moment. Just as she was about to continue, someone knocked on the office door."Come in."The door opened, revealing a staff member from the front desk."Ms. Charlotte, someone is here to see you."Ever since the 'private screening' incident, the attitude

    When they left the theater, it was already dusk. Charlotte got into Simon's car, remaining vigilant throughout the journey. Simon noticed her cautious gaze and laughed."Are you afraid I'll do something inappropriate?""To be honest, it's not that. Because I think you're already up to something inappropriate," Charlotte said as she took a bite of her chocolate bar.Simon chuckled. "Give me one of those chocolate bars.""No.""How stingy can you be?""They cost one dollar each. Sorry, I can't be generous with them."Simon nodded in agreement. Seemingly without thinking, he started the car, reached into Charlotte's bag, and took the last chocolate bar. Charlotte was shocked.He effortlessly tore open the wrapper and took a bite, casually asking, "Do you have any preferences for dinner?""I'm treating you to dinner, so let's go with your preferences," Charlotte replied."I've always taken care of girls; I won't make you cater to me," he said sweetly."I don't like plain food."

    The saying 'fight fire with fire' applied perfectly here. Even someone as domineering as Michelle crumbled when faced with Simon.She continued explaining from the corridor until they reached Rosa Lewis's hospital bed. Charlotte followed but stayed by the door.From a distance and through the crowd, she noticed Rosa's figure. She looked like a paper doll. She was extremely thin, with skin so pale that it was almost translucent. She was practically skin and bones."Simon, don't blame Michelle. I'm fine; I just inhaled some pollen and had an allergic reaction.""What kind of pollen?"Rosa's gaze was unfocused as she absentmindedly touched her side. "Lily of the valley."Simon was displeased and scanned the room. "Where did the lily of the valley come from?"The room fell silent.The butler spoke up, "Ms. Wilson brought it."Charlotte inwardly clicked her tongue. Michelle immediately started apologizing and explaining. Charlotte could see from Simon's expression that he was extre

    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
