Chapter 538 Meeting Again

Author: Escaping Bunny
The bedroom door was left ajar, and Charlotte walked over to find Griffith's back as he was unboxing an ointment.

"Need any help?" she asked.

She hoped he would say 'no' so she wouldn't feel guilty, and they wouldn't have to face each other, avoiding an awkward situation.

However, Griffith's chilly voice came through. "If you want to help, just act. Asking if I need help is unnecessary. Do you think that I'll reject your offer since we're currently not on good terms, and it will ease your guilt?"

Charlotte thought, 'You're a mind-reader.'

She rolled her eyes and walked into the room. "Give me the ointment."

Griffith turned around, sat on the edge of the bed, and handed her a bag full of items. Charlotte pulled up a chair, sat across from him, and emptied the bag, checking each item and its instructions.

"Is the explosion at the hotpot restaurant related to Soraya?" she asked.

"It was the lighter," Griffith replied.

Just as she suspected. Charlotte got up to wash her hands and

    "What would you like?" Charlotte overheard the waitress ask Griffith. Although she didn't hear Griffith's response, she guessed it was probably coffee because he had brought a laptop, which indicated that he was working.She had originally chosen a corner seat, not too conspicuous. However, Griffith had picked the best spot in the entire cafe – good lighting, a view of the night cityscape, and a table that was ideal for working.There were only the two of them in the cafe, along with a dozing waitress who took forever to bring a cup of coffee. At first, Charlotte kept glancing at Griffith, but when she realized he hadn't noticed her, she continued reading her script and crying.Griffith was seated under the bright lights with a perfect view of the entire restaurant. In the corner, a woman was crying like a fool, and every time he looked up, he could see her. Coming down here to cry instead of sleeping?He stared at his laptop screen. The business partner in the video conference ass

    Table ten was precisely where Charlotte was seated.Griffith's face was expressionless. He glanced at the waitress, and his mere gaze woke up the drowsy attendant. She left the cake on the table and hurried away.On the opposite side, Charlotte clicked her tongue and took a big spoonful of bread pudding, savoring it with delight. It didn't take long for the cake to arrive.She had been crying for a while and hadn't eaten any substantial food during the hotpot dinner, so she was quite hungry. As soon as the cake arrived, she buried her face in it.Suddenly, a shadow loomed over her.Thump.A plate of the same cake was placed in front of her.She raised her head, locking eyes with the man's deep gaze. She licked her lips and put down the spoon."What do you want?" Her tone was a bit defiant.As soon as she spoke, Charlotte remembered when she would call Griffith. He used to start with this kind of tone.Griffith also remembered, and for a moment, his brows furrowed. The next mo

    Charlotte stopped dead in her tracks as Griffith grabbed her hand. She glared at him and said, "What's the matter?"The two of them had been in a standoff for several days, affecting his mood. Just a moment ago, he recalled what Eli had said and decided to apologize to her. However, sensing the aggressive tone in her voice, he changed his mind."So, it's all my fault, and you have no blame?" he said.Charlotte bit her lip. She knew it. It would be impossible for Griffith to utter something pleasant. She shook off his hand."I'm at fault, of course!" she said.Griffith looked puzzled, turning his head, frowning as he looked at her.Charlotte chuckled. His expression indicated that he was waiting for her to admit her mistake."I'm at fault for preparing such a worthless gift for you, wasting so much time and effort for nothing!" Griffith was speechless.Charlotte took a deep breath and continued, "Is a sour face your way of showing appreciation?"Griffith, surprised by her lou

    Griffith couldn't help but admire Charlotte's skill at getting under his skin. Did she think if it had been someone else that day, she would have fallen for their charm just as easily? What did she take him for? His death stare was met with an eye roll from Charlotte."If I'm at fault for that day's incident, it's for not controlling myself. But you, using seduction with malicious intent, that's truly despicable!"With those words, she darted away. Griffith instinctively reached out to grab her, but his hand closed on thin air. It was as if he had momentarily lost his mind. Snapping back to reality, he found himself in pursuit."Sir! Your laptop! Your laptop!"He rushed to the door but abruptly stopped, realizing the laptop's significance. Seeing Charlotte already making her escape, he reluctantly returned to retrieve the device before striding out again.Charlotte sprinted, entered an elevator, and frantically pressed the close button. Clutching a slim notebook, Griffith quickene

    Every dime mattered to Charlotte, and she bombarded Griffith with dozens of messages, pestering him to return her money. Griffith knew how much she cared, and it pleased him even more. Despite the relentless messages, he chose to ignore her. Before putting down his phone, he did something he had never done–changing his status to "sudden wealth." The next moment, Charlotte responded with a deathly smile in the comments, and Griffith couldn't help but smirk.His phone sat near the pillow, vibrating continuously. Usually, he demanded absolute silence while sleeping, but today was different. The noise strangely soothed him.After a brief pause, Charlotte launched another round of bombardment. Griffith turned around, facing away from the phone. Suddenly, he chuckled. Realizing it, he quickly suppressed his laughter. He recalled Charlotte's words and felt irritated.How dare she say she would have fallen for that trick that day even if it wasn't him? But then he remembered that she never

    Charlotte and the group arrived at the amusement park, purchased their tickets, and entered. Shortly after, Charlotte's phone rang, and she sighed before finding a quiet spot to answer the call."Charlotte."Julie's voice came both from the phone and behind her. Surprised, she turned around to see Julie waving enthusiastically.Despite the noisy surroundings, Charlotte could spot the bodyguards, all dressed casually but easily distinguishable. Ash stood under a sunshade, helping Julie with her food, while a man in sunglasses reclined in a plastic chair with his legs crossed.Charlotte sneered, exchanged greetings with Lucy and the others, and then joined Julie in the shaded area, where Julie handed her a fruit juice."Thank you.""You're welcome."Charlotte took the fruit juice and asked Ash, "Which attraction are you waiting for?""Julie wants to see the fox, so we're waiting for that.""Charlotte is coming too!" Julie exclaimed, hugging Charlotte.Charlotte nodded and said,

    "Don't touch the head! It's very dangerous!""How annoying! There's always someone like this!"Surrounded by accusations, Charlotte felt extremely embarrassed. She subconsciously thought of Griffith as part of her group, and since he was close, she quickly went to his side."Sorry, sorry, he doesn't understand the rule.""That's no excuse for touching randomly!"Charlotte frowned and looked at the person who spoke. "Did you see him touch it?"The person choked.A staff member intervened, and Griffith didn't touch the character. With people busy taking pictures, the issue was temporarily set aside.Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief and quickly pulled Griffith out of the crowd.Adjusting her slightly crooked hairband, she asked him, "Why did you do that?"Griffith was speechless. He glanced at her and asked, "Who was that just now?""What?""Who is that doll?""You don't know?""No.""If you don't know, why did you try to touch it?" Charlotte blurted out.Griffith cross

    "Sorry, we checked, and there's no stock left," the shop assistant informed Charlotte.In the shop, Charlotte clung to hope but was met with disappointment. She turned to Lucy and let out a sigh.Lucy tried to console her, saying, "How about picking a different character?""No, I only like Minnie.""You're quite devoted.""Of course."As Charlotte said this, she prepared to leave. Suddenly, a staff member called out to her.She turned, and her eyes lit up. "Is there stock now?"The staff member smiled. "The one you wanted is sold out, but we found a similar one, a bit more expensive. Would you like to see it?""Can I take a look?""Please wait."Soon, someone walked out from the side, handing a gift box to Charlotte."Are you satisfied with this one?"Charlotte took a look and found a Minnie ornament encrusted with diamonds. She checked the price tag: two hundred dollars."This is only two hundred dollars?" Mary was shocked.Lucy, not understanding, thought it was alread

    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.

    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 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.

    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
