They had an unpleasant encounter last night, so Charlotte intended to ignore him. However, after Griffith left the elevator, he stood next to her and looked down at her, saying, "Did you come to the company to bring me lunch?"

Charlotte was in disbelief. Where did he get the audacity to think that she came to bring him lunch?

"You have some nerve, thinking my secretary would tell you where I am," Griffith sneered.

Charlotte was about to retort when Arthur Thompson, Griffith's secretary, reached out and said, "Mrs. Wilson, I'll take it from here."

She wanted to argue but refrained herself, seeing someone approaching. Since Griffith thought she was here to bring him lunch, she decided to play along and teach him a lesson. She smiled and passed Arthur the meal box.

Seeing her response, Griffith was certain of his speculation that she was trying to please him just like before.

"Let me remind you, your little tricks won't work," Griffith said.

Charlotte nodded and smiled mirthlessly, "Yes, I understand. Thank you for your consideration, Griffith."

Griffith's expression slightly softened. He walked past her and remarked, "I won't put up with your tantrums every single time."

Charlotte watched Griffith walk away arrogantly. She clutched her bag in front of her and tried to calm herself down. Why bother arguing with an animal?

Back in Wilson Corp.

Griffith returned to his office and freshened up briefly. He noticed the meal box in Arthur's hand and said, "Just leave it on the table."

"Yes, Mr. Wilson."

Arthur did not dare to act recklessly. He waited for Griffith to personally unpack his lunch as he stood nearby the table. Suddenly, his phone kept vibrating.

Griffith sat down at the table and glanced at the meal box. He smirked, thinking Charlotte was trying to please him. The meal she made previously to ask for his favor was horrible, so he was curious to know what she made this time.

Arthur's expression changed drastically as he tried to stop Griffith from opening the meal box, but it was too late. Griffith frowned as he saw the leftovers in the meal box.

Arthur looked at his phone and stammered, "Mr. Wilson, Mrs. Wilson said that the leftovers… are for her friend's pet dog." He felt a chill run up his spine.

Griffith sighed and grabbed a tissue to wipe off the oil on his fingers and extended his hand.

"Give me the phone," he said.

Arthur quickly handed Griffith his phone.

Griffith's expression darkened as he read the message sent by Charlotte. Suddenly, he noticed their previous messages and scrolled through them.

"Did she talk to you about getting a divorce?" Griffith asked.

Arthur smiled awkwardly and replied, "Yes."

The first message was received on the first day of Griffith's business trip and Charlotte's attitude was relatively good.

Charlotte: [Arthur, please tell Wilson that I want $300 million as compensation. That's not much, right?]

Arthur: [I will convey your request to Mr. Wilson.]

On the second day, Charlotte continued to urge.

Charlotte: [How about this, $150 million! This is the lowest it gets. Get him to process it immediately.]

Arthur replied with a crying emoji.

Arthur: [Mrs. Wilson, it's not about the money but Mr. Wilson has been really busy recently!]

On the third day, Charlotte was losing her patience.

Charlotte: [$75 million! It can't go any lower!]

Arthur: [Mrs. Wilson, please don't be like this.]

Charlotte was clearly agitated at the last message.

Charlotte: [$15 million! If it goes any lower, it will compromise his status! He wouldn't want rumors to be spreading that the Wilson Family is on the verge of bankruptcy, unable to afford the divorce compensation to his ex-wife, would he?]

    After reading all the messages, Griffith was angry but did not show his emotion. He thought Charlotte would come to her senses after he had ignored her for a few days, but it did not turn out the way he expected. It appeared that she was causing a scene because of money."Mr. Wilson, how should I reply to Mrs. Wilson?" Arthur asked.Griffith blocked her contact number and returned the phone to Arthur."Just ignore her. Deactivate her cards to make her sober up," Griffith replied.Arthur nodded and added, "By the way, I've found a set of purple jewelry just as you requested. It should be suitable as a gift for…"Before Arthur could finish his words, Griffith cast a glance at him."Should I take it out in advance?" Arthur asked.Griffith furrowed his brow and replied, "Not for now.""Alright." After thinking for a moment, Arthur continued, "I've found a few houses for Miss Katie as you instructed me to. Would you like to take a look?"Griffith had mixed emotions when Arthur ment

    "That's impossible," Griffith said.Arthur was speechless at how confident Griffith was. He thought for a moment and replied, "Perhaps Mrs. Wilson just hopes you can spend more time with her."Griffith opened his eyes. This was more likely to explain the reason for her demanding a divorce. He sat up straight, took the medicine and glanced at the clock on the wall. It was almost time for dinner.After getting off work, Ava and Charlotte parted ways. Charlotte tried to hail a taxi to head to the Scott Family's mansion. Suddenly, she was startled by a black Bentley pulling over in front of her. The car window rolled down and Griffith did not even bother to glance sideways as he said, "Get in."Charlotte hesitated for a moment. Was he willing to join them for dinner? She then quickly opened the door and got into the Bentley, fearing Griffith might change his mind all of a sudden.Griffith and Charlotte remained silent on the way to the Scott Family's mansion. Then, she looked out the

    The reading room fell silent. She felt a lump in her throat as she swallowed the fruit. She knew that Griffith would never compromise benefits for even true love, let alone for her, who was nothing to him. Despite that, her heart still wrenched when she heard how indifferent Griffith was.Charlotte sighed. She picked up the plate and quickly went downstairs from another side before someone came out of the reading room. Shortly after she sat in the living room, the door of the reading room flung open. Griffith and Owen Scott came down the stairs one after another with a stern expression on their faces. While Griffith was always like that, it was clear that Owen was displeased.Dinner felt rather awkward that night because Charlotte's eldest uncle and third uncle were not present. At the dining table, as the hostess, Priscillia was treating Griffith passionately. Charlotte noticed Griffith was clearly annoyed by the special treatment and found it amusing. It lightened up her mood.Pri

    Owen went upstairs after making a remark and Priscillia had a smug look on her face. Charlotte's expression remained unchanged. She looked at the dog and stroked its chin and praised, "Good boy."Griffith did not return to the dining room so Charlotte went to their room upstairs. She did not want to share a bed with him but sleeping in a different room would raise suspicion. So she tidied the sofa.However, when she opened the wardrobe, the night gowns were unattractive and tacky. Obviously, Priscilla was behind this. She would rather not wear them or else Griffith would ridicule her.After taking a bath, she put on a bathrobe and covered herself with a blanket and slept on the sofa. The lights were off when Griffith entered the bedroom. She quickly put down her phone when she heard his footsteps. Griffith opened the wardrobe and there was a moment of silence before he slammed it shut.Charlotte realized he must have seen the nightgowns. She felt embarrassed, as she remembered at l

    Smack!A loud and crisp sound echoed, and the room fell silent.Griffith froze. After regaining his senses, he felt a burning sensation on his cheek. The desire in his eyes faded and was replaced with an icy glare. This was his first time being slapped across the face.Charlotte quickly grabbed her bathrobe and got out of bed."I said I want a divorce!" Charlotte remarked.In the past, whenever Griffith refused the conditions requested by the Scott Family, Charlotte would come to beg him and even resorted to using her body to please him. As such, he thought she was using the same old tricks, and he even played along to simply give her a way out.Griffith's expression was unsightly. She could not help but explain, "I don't know who drugged you, but it wasn't me."Griffith snorted coldly and said, "You fed me soup."Charlotte figured that explaining to him was just a waste of energy, so she headed toward the bathroom to get cold water for him. As she passed by him, he grabbed her

    Griffith glared at Charlotte frostily and said, "Charlotte Scott, you better not regret it."Charlotte stared directly into his eyes and replied, "Whether I regret it or not is none of your business. Just make sure you're not late."Shortly after, Griffith stormed out of the bedroom and left the mansion in a hurry. Charlotte stood motionlessly by the door. Suddenly, the door opposite opened and Faith walked out slowly. She glanced downstairs and said with a worried expression, "Charlotte, what happened? Did the two of you have a fight?"Since Charlotte could not leave in the middle of the night, she sat alone in the room all night. When the butler woke up at 5 o'clock in the morning, she told him to deliver a message to her grandfather."There's something going on back home, so I need to go back earlier."The butler nodded respectfully in response.Charlotte walked out of the mansion, but there was no car waiting for her. She knew that her grandfather was deliberately making thin

    Around 9 o'clock. The sky was clear and the weather was delightful. Charlotte got out of the taxi and walked toward the Courthouse. As she got closer, she noticed there seemed to be more estranged couples than loving ones.It reminded her of the day they were supposed to obtain their marriage certificate. Griffith did not show up on that day and she waited in vain all morning until she received a call, saying that everything had been taken care of. Later, she found out just how much he resented their marriage.Charlotte looked around when she arrived in front of the Courthouse, but she couldn't find Griffith's car. She thought he must still be at Katie's place, perhaps still sleeping. She quickly sent him a text to remind him to be on time, but he did not reply.She frowned down at her phone as she realized it had been like this for years. She would eagerly anticipate his reply, but he would not even respond. It was almost 10 o'clock and the line outside the Courthouse got longer. S

    Charlotte felt a lump in her throat. The card belonged to Griffith, so only he had the authority to freeze it. She ignored the staff's judgemental gaze and quickly took out her phone and realized she had several missed calls from Griffith. She called back immediately but he did not answer.She looked at her phone and saw a message from Griffith.Griffith: [Where are you?! You stood me up. Are you happy?]She could feel his wrath through the message.She closed her eyes and thought of replying, but she stopped herself. It would be pointless for her to explain her current situation to him right now, so she quickly called Ava instead. Without hesitation, Ava transferred $15,000 to Charlotte's bank account and promised to be with her as soon as possible.After paying the deposit, Charlotte returned to the emergency room and signed the papers as instructed. William was wheeled into the operation theater immediately. His condition finally stabilized, and he was out of danger after spend

    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
