Chapter 161 Mrs. Wilson's Love

Charlotte went to the hospital to visit William, who was about to be discharged.The young man sat by the window early in the morning, wearing a camouflage jacket over his hospital gown. Despite his bandaged limbs, he still looked handsome.The only downside was his sour expression."It's past eight. Why aren't you at work? What are you doing at the hospital?" His tone made it hard for Charlotte not to think of Griffith."I'm not going to work today," she replied after sitting down."You're working only three days a week. How can you succeed in your career?" he said.William closed his book written in German and sneered. "When will you snap out of your love-struck phase? Besides thinking about Griffith, do you have anything else to do? Or have you become addicted to being a wealthy housewife?"Charlotte stammered, "That's not...""Zombies must have eaten your brains! What does he have besides his money and good looks?"Charlotte struggled to respond, but William couldn't be bo

Chapter 162 No Longer Cooking for Him

Arthur pushed up his glasses, placed his documents on the desk, and left the office. As soon as he left, the prying eyes from all sides discreetly withdrew, but the lingering scent of gossip still hung in the air. Without a doubt, within five minutes, the entire company would know.Arthur sighed.As soon as the door closed, Charlotte immediately straightened. In the process, her hair brushed past Griffith's shoulder once again. Griffith's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he was about to speak when she suddenly said, "How was my act?""Act?" he questioned.He calmly placed the cap back on his pen with a darkened face. Charlotte, however, didn't mind his demeanor. She walked over to the dining table and unpacked the lunch boxes individually."The dishes you wanted are all here."Griffith glanced at the spread but still seemed skeptical. "Did you make them yourself?"Charlotte maintained a serious expression and replied, "I did."Sixteen dishes. How long did it take to prepare

Chapter 163 Teasing Me

"If your dad returns, can you handle him?" Charlotte broke the silence halfway through. She felt it was getting awkward and needed to say something.Griffith looked at her and said, "Are you afraid I'll be doomed and drag you down?"Charlotte shrugged and nodded solemnly. "Precisely. We didn't exactly have a happy marriage. It'll be too tragic if I'm dragged down with you."Griffith snorted, and silence fell once more.Charlotte glanced around and noticed a corner of the bandage on Griffith's arm was peeling off."You haven't replaced it yet?" she asked.Griffith followed her gaze and looked at his forearm, frowning slightly. He reached over and adjusted his sleeve. "I haven't had the chance."Charlotte glanced around and asked, "Do you have bandages in your office?"Griffith looked at her and said lowly, "There's no one here. No need to pretend to care about me."Charlotte smiled faintly and replied, "I'm just worried you'll die, and I'll have to join you in the afterlife."

Chapter 164 Did That Hurt?

During the long lunch break, Charlotte ordered some adhesive bandages and had them delivered.They were all adorned with cartoon characters. Griffith didn't seem to like them, and Charlotte could tell.So, when people were around, she strategically moved closer to him and, in a sweet, flirtatious tone, said, "Honey, let me change your bandage for you."Griffith was stunned. The executives collectively gasped in shock.Charlotte had a mischievous look, knowing Griffith wouldn't make a scene in front of others. She chose the most conspicuous Mickey Mouse bandage and playfully slapped it onto Griffith's forearm.Griffith grunted. Lowering his head to see her bright smile, his eyes widened.Charlotte blinked innocently and asked, "Did that hurt?""No," Griffith replied."That's good, then!"The high-ranking executive was getting goosebumps just watching this display of affection. He couldn't help but think that Griffith was so devoted to starting a family that he was willing to pu

Chapter 166 Saving the Day

Suzanne Cole looked furious. When she saw Charlotte, she almost didn't recognize her. She cautiously said, "Charlotte?"Charlotte smiled and responded, "Teacher, it's been a long time."Suzanne wasn't in the mood to catch up. She forced herself to suppress her anger and was about to speak when she heard a young woman's voice from behind."If it weren't for her, I would have already made it big. Yet she's giving me an attitude! She's getting old. If she can't direct, she should just admit it!"These words ignited Suzanne's anger. She was about to go back and argue with the young woman, but Charlotte grabbed her, signaling to Wade's assistant with her eyes.

Chapter 167 A Perfect Performance

It had been three years since Charlotte last stepped onto a stage. Sitting in front of the makeup mirror and looking at her reflection in the traditional costume, she felt she had traveled through time.Outside, the commotion continued, but she had already picked up the script and quickly memorized her lines.Suzanne called the male actor who would share the stage with her. At first, he was reluctant and leaned toward having the director apologize instead to avoid jeopardizing the performance. However, his attitude wavered when he saw the gorgeous Charlotte in front of the mirror.When Charlotte called him 'senior,' the male actor was no longer reluctant. It wasn't just because he was captivated by her beauty but that Charlotte had a good attitude. Compared to his usual co-star, Jessica, Charlotte was undoubtedly much gentler. Who wouldn't prefer an easy-going co-star?After rehearsing their lines for a while, the male actor was surprised to learn that Charlotte had a strong acting

Chapter 168 If You Choose Her, I'll Go

"If you choose her, I'll go!" In the backstage office, Jessica was crying as she spoke, utterly different from her assertive and domineering demeanor in the afternoon. The play had already ended, and the news that Suzanne had successfully found someone to save the day had spread throughout the theater. Jessica couldn't bear this humiliation and could only complain to the theater owner. The owner tried to reassure Charlotte with words but secretly called for Suzanne and, in the process, invited 'Ms. Wallace' as well.Charlotte hadn't even removed her makeup when she gracefully entered the office, politely shaking hands with the boss. The woman's appearance was exceptionally striking, leading the owner's mind to race as he compared her with Jessica repeatedly.Jessica was keenly aware of the theater owner's intentions and felt threatened by Charlotte's beauty. "This afternoon, I was just joking with Suzanne, and she gave my role to someone else. How can I continue working in the

Chapter 169 Ticket Refunds

It was past eight o'clock, and Charlotte sat at the dining table in Ava's house, slurping a mouthful of noodles while listening to Ava's analysis."You and your teacher made a hasty decision," Ava remarked.Charlotte nodded, sharing the same sentiment. When Jessica proposed her plan, Suzanne didn't think twice before agreeing. Ava passed a garlic clove to Charlotte, and the two met mid-air, clinking the garlic cloves like glasses before slurping a mouthful of noodles.Ah—They both exhaled as their cravings were momentarily satisfied before they continued talking.Ava was an experienced professional in the workplace and got straight to the point. "Even if you achieve half of that woman's ticket sales, you won't be able to stay, and it might end up worse for you."Charlotte thought for a moment and nodded. "You're right. Suzanne is a refined person who hasn't experienced the hardships of life. She doesn't understand the situation. She should've thought about it carefully. Why wo

Chapter 170 No Way Out

Charlotte pushed open the door to the dressing room, and the people inside turned their faces toward her, their expressions less than cheerful. However, they all remained silent.Suzanne stood up amidst the crowd, wearing a tired expression. Charlotte approached her and asked, "Ms. Cole, what happened?"They moved away from the others to talk in private. Suzanne apologized and said, "News about the replacement of the actress in 'Looking West to the Capital' has spread, and there have been several ticket refund requests. Two actors in our group have applied for transfer to Jessica's other play."This situation had been within Charlotte's expectations, but she hadn't anticipated chaos before the play started. She glanced around the dressing room and noticed the male actor from yesterday was missing.Suzanne guessed her concern and said, "I think he's already talked to Jessica's side. He hasn't officially transferred yet, but he's waiting for our play to finish. If it fails, he'll smo
