Chapter 726 Anyway, I Don't Like You

Author: Escaping Bunny
Originally, there was a noticeable distance between them. Charlotte stood on the chair, making sure not to touch Griffith. Suddenly, he moved forward, supporting her waist, causing her feet to press against him in an awkward position. She quickly retreated.

Their eyes met. She nervously swallowed and, after a while, licked her lips, raised her chin, and said, "It’s okay for you to like me."

He looked at her.

After all the hardships she had endured over the years, Charlotte finally had the chance for a comeback. She intentionally provoked him, saying, "Anyway, I don't have any feelings for you."

As soon as she finished speaking, the man's expression noticeably shifted. She felt a bit nervous, fearing she had gone too far. After all, this guy wasn't one to be trifled with; he could play along when he chose to, but he could bite back anytime.

Unexpectedly, Griffith only paused for a few seconds before returning to his usual expression. After contemplating for a moment, he looked up a

    Charlotte lay on the office desk, watching as Griffith unbuttoned his shirt, feeling a bit dumbfounded. Subconsciously, she wanted to get up but he pressed down on her shoulder.A kiss followed.Griffith didn't even have time to unbutton all the buttons. He pulled her hand to his body, kissed her lips, gave her a chance to catch her breath, and then whispered in her ear, "It's your turn."Charlotte felt the firm muscles beneath his palm, and her mind went blank. Then, the man's hot palm wrapped around her waist, moving downward."Gri—" Her voice was cut off before she could even fully say his name. Instead of helping him unbutton, she had her skirt pushed up.The room was cool due to the air conditioning. With her legs hanging on his sides, exposed without the long skirt, a sudden rush of cool air entered the gaps between their closely pressed bodies. The contrast of cold and hot stimulated Charlotte, making her shiver like a bud trembling in the wind.He gently bit her neck, his

    When her feet touched the ground, Charlotte's legs felt weak, almost causing her to lose balance.Griffith hugged her waist, looked down at her, and said seriously, "It's been too long. I guess you’re not used to it."She shot him a glare and retorted, "You're no better!"Without engaging in an argument, he simply reached for the camera at his side. Wordlessly, he snapped a picture of her before she could shield her face, and the camera was back in his hands."Take a look at yourself."Huh? Charlotte felt puzzled. She lowered her head and instantly blushed upon seeing the photo. Her hair was disheveled, the corners of her eyes were slightly red, and her cheeks bore a rosy hue, reminiscent of someone who had just been passionately loved.Actions did speak louder than words, huh?She bit her lip."Griffith!"The man turned to meet her gaze."Behaving like this won't make me like you." Charlotte playfully poked his chest.Griffith fell silent for a moment. He nodded, opened the

    Charlotte had had enough of this scoundrel. Swiftly, she disentangled herself from him, then nonchalantly responded to his previous question, as if what he did was entirely ordinary.Arms crossed, she turned her head to glare at him. "Why didn't Ash beat you to death?""Aren't you curious why I couldn't sleep at night?""Not really.""I missed you so much."Charlotte fell silent. Argh—!She closed her eyes. "Griffith, if you're not good at sweet talk, then don't try it. It sounds dry and fake.""Should I describe in detail what I missed about you? Would that make it more real?""I'd rather not hear it.""Well, then I won't say it. It's too inappropriate to put into words anyway."Charlotte caught the hint in his words and couldn't resist elbowing him. Adjusting his posture from behind, he held her and rested his chin on her shoulder."If you're not going to help wash me up, let me go, and I'll do it," she said."I'll help you.""No, thanks." As she tried to wrest free, he

    It was near dawn.After the thorough shower, Charlotte felt completely exhausted. She sat on the edge of the bed, draped in a towel, while Griffith stood behind her, blow-drying her hair. He wielded the blow-dryer with impressive speed, almost as if he wished to transform it into a microwave, drying Charlotte in an instant.With closed eyes, she felt his fingers weaving through her hair, conveying a sense of impatience. She curved her lips, choosing not to expose him.It didn't matter. She would just let him get excited. Whether they did it or not in the end was up to her.Midway, she opened her eyes and glanced at the clock on the wall. There were only a few hours left; she needed to conserve her energy.First, she needed to coax him to sleep. She needed to create a nice dream for him, and then, she would leave.Just as she was thinking, the sound of the blow-dryer stopped. Griffith turned around, tossed the hairdryer into a drawer, and quickly returned. Walking to the bedside,

    The room fell silent for a moment, and Griffith embraced Charlotte's waist. Following her words, he said, "To marry you, I need to like you, and you need to like me, right?""Yep.""Only those two conditions.""Agreed.""One down.""That's right.""What can I do to make you like me?" he asked, getting to the point.Charlotte raised her eyebrows, pondered for a moment, and said, "I don't know. Figure it out."Griffith looked into her sparkling eyes. He wasn't unaware that she was just playing with him, yet her actions still softened him, making his rationality slacken."Alright, I'll figure it out."Charlotte kissed him on the lips. "Good boy.""Don't coax me like I'm a dog."She leaned on his chest. "I can't?""No.""In that case, if you bark like a dog, I'll kiss you again."Being the proud man he was, he couldn't let her tease him like this and simply closed his eyes.Charlotte teased him. "You're not gonna do it?"He remained silent. Alright, he was stubborn.Charl

  • My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back   Chapter 732 Departure

    Late at night, Charlotte quietly got up and changed her clothes.All her belongings had been meticulously prepared and carefully transported to Ava's residence well in advance. She had no intention of driving; instead, she quietly left the neighborhood on foot, knowing that Ava was waiting not far away.In the soup she gave Griffith, she added some tranquilizing medicine. The guy wouldn't wake up for a while.With all the arrangements in place, she settled on the edge of the bed, silently observing the peacefully slumbering man. Perhaps it was the afterglow of contentment or the sense of fulfillment that had found its way to him here. He lay asleep, his face unguarded, a faint smile playing on the corner of his lips.Unable to resist, she reached out and pinched his cheek. Hmm! When he woke up and found out, he'd probably be infuriated."Pity, I won't be here to witness it," she mused with a shrug. Rising from the bedside, she turned to leave but halted abruptly. Leaning down, she

    Griffith stirred awake at nine in the morning. The room was still dim, thanks to the drawn curtains that barred any intrusion of sunlight. Almost instinctively, he extended his hand to the space beside him, only to find an empty bed.Blinking awake, he cast a glance to the side, confirming that the spot was indeed vacant.He furrowed his brow, propped himself up with one arm, and checked the wall clock. He hadn't anticipated it to be this late. The wine from the previous night hadn't been particularly potent; at most, he had been mildly inebriated. Yet, here he was, awakening at this hour.Clearly, Charlotte's enchantment had worked its magic on him.He stretched his neck, noting nothing unusual, and then retrieved a lightweight robe from the floor to drape around himself. He remembered that Charlotte had a morning rehearsal and would have likely departed by now.Upon descending the stairs, the house remained quiet, with only the household staff setting up breakfast.One of the m

    In a quaint town near Venau in Australia, a bus came to a halt beneath a sign.Charlotte, carrying a small bag and clutching a compact camera, disembarked from the bus. The moment her feet touched the ground, she aimed her camera at the sign and captured two quick shots.To avoid any awkward selfies, she focused solely on the scenic surroundings, never turning the lens toward herself.The local dialect filled the air around her. After a brief pause, she heard a query in a distinctive local accent, "Lottie, is there a Lottie here?"Charlotte glanced down, spotting a fellow Mainlander girl.She waved in response. "That's me."Upon seeing her, the girl beamed with delight and waited by the roadside for Charlotte. When Charlotte managed to make her way through the crowd, the girl introduced herself as Susan, the local private guide Charlotte had arranged."Thank you. Could you assist me with the luggage first?" Charlotte requested."Of course." Susan was efficient, enlisting the he

    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.

    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
