Chapter 531 I Think He’s Like You

The table fell completely silent at Soraya's words. Eli calmly placed his cutlery down, his expression subtly changing. Meanwhile, Griffith continued transferring food to his plate, maintaining a poker face, giving no sign that he had heard Soraya's words.Charlotte and Lucy, the situation's original victims, now took on the role of silent observers, secretly smirking at the unfolding drama.Holding her glass of juice, Soraya pressed on, "That day, my brother had too much to drink and played a prank on your woman. He deeply regrets it and has said he wants to apologize."She believed that Griffith would grant her this favor in front of Eli. After all, it wouldn't do to embarrass her over a mere actress."Mr. Wilson, I'd like to propose a toast to you."Finally, she concluded her words.Griffith halted his movements, looked at her, and asked, "He wants to apologize?""Yes...""Was I the one who danced on stage and drank that day?"Soraya hesitated.Without any intention of sug

Chapter 532 Tanya Moran

After some laughter at the table, Eli and Griffith excused themselves to go outside for a smoke. Their cravings had gotten the best of them, and resistance was futile.Before leaving, Eli pinched Soraya's cheek and said, "Order whatever you want to eat, and if you don't like something, don't force yourself. I'll take you out for another meal when I get back."This was his way of soothing her, and Soraya's face improved somewhat."Smoke less.""Okay."Griffith got up, and as he passed by Charlotte, he glanced at her. Charlotte also gave him a sidelong look. The two of them exchanged glances but refrained from any further communication. A peaceful farewell was good enough.With the two men leaving, the atmosphere inside the room became much quieter. Charlotte and Lucy shared dishes and chatted while ignoring Soraya.Soraya looked down on the two of them. She was about to say something, but she suddenly remembered the words Eli had mentioned earlier.'Strict wife'?This startled

Chapter 533 Catching Her Red Handed

Charlotte deliberately walked a bit slowly and, after a while, reached the corner. She then cautiously peered around the corner.Sure enough, not far away, Soraya had grabbed Tanya, and they were arguing. Charlotte was too far away to hear clearly, so she pricked up her ears. She only caught one sentence because the girl had raised her voice, apparently getting agitated."I've already given you that check. I haven't taken a single cent from Eli. Please stop bothering me!"She couldn't hear what came next. Charlotte scratched her ear, wanting to listen more, but then heard a slap.Startled, she peered around the corner. The girl in the uniform was clutching her right cheek.Charlotte was taken aback, and her desire to watch the spectacle vanished. She saw that Soraya was about to strike another blow, so she stepped out from the corner. "Stop!"Upon seeing Charlotte, Soraya's expression briefly showed panic. She instinctively blocked Charlotte's view, then walked toward her to prev

Chapter 534 Explosion

Charlotte stared at the two cups momentarily and then looked up to find Griffith looking at her."I'll get you a new one," she stammered. Eli interjected, "Why bother replacing it? You both drank from each other's cups, and nobody lost anything. Isn't sharing a cup more intimate than using a new one?"Charlotte still moved to get a new cup, but Griffith said, "Don't bother."Charlotte looked up.Griffith gave her a cold glance and said, "I won't drink anymore."That worked out perfectly. They didn't need to waste another cup. Charlotte poured herself a glass. She sipped it contentedly and noticed everyone was still watching her. She smiled playfully, intending to mess with Soraya."It's nothing. I just saw a dreadful sight."Lucy continued, "What happened?""There was a fight!" Charlotte clicked her tongue. "Someone slapped the other party.""An argument?" Lucy asked."Seems like it, over money. The one who got slapped was talking about some che—"Before finishing her sent

Chapter 535 Are You Okay?

The accident happened too suddenly. The moments before Charlotte fell, Griffith turned his face, his gaze locked on her, but his profile and body faced the hot pot.Clang!She fell heavily on the ground with the chair, and her waist felt like it was about to shatter. Before she could get up, there was another explosion in the pot.Her mind was in a daze, but then a figure suddenly appeared in front of her. A hand grabbed her arm and pulled her upper body up, dragging her several meters away from the still-raging hot pot.As she landed on the floor, she saw Griffith's sharp, dark eyes. He appeared unaffected by the explosion.Charlotte struggled to get up and instinctively reached out to grab his arm but hesitated. He had been very close to the hot pot just now. There was no way he hadn't been affected.The door to the private dining room was pushed open, and Eli rushed in, followed by a few waitstaff.The area around the table was a complete mess. The pot had been blown off the

Chapter 536 Have Your Family Take Care of It

"This area, here, right here," Eli finally managed to find an old scar on Griffith's back, and he said to the doctor, "Isn't this a wound? A serious one!"The doctor was speechless and said, "Sir, please don't make it difficult for us."He just had a small abrasion and a burn. Eli, who didn't know what was happening, thought it was something major.Griffith, sitting on the edge of the bed, had lost his patience. He buttoned his shirt and sighed.Eli continued to advise, "Why don't you stay a bit longer and pretend to be seriously injured? Scare her a bit."Griffith ignored him, but the blisters on his hands and arms made him uncomfortable. He glanced at the doctor and said, "Please have someone attend to these."The doctor was about to say something.Eli interrupted, "For such a minor issue, there's no need to use medical resources. Go home and have your family take care of it."The doctor considered this and said, "I can prescribe some medication for you."Griffith thought ab

Chapter 537 Back to the Hotel

From a distance, Charlotte watched as the police officers headed straight for Griffith's group. Craning her neck, she got a better look and realized that Griffith had walked alone in the car's direction, leaving Eli and Soraya behind.Once Griffith got into the car, his bodyguard closed the door.Charlotte asked him, "Did the police determine what was wrong with the restaurant?"Griffith replied, "Mm."She inquired further, "What happened?""I didn't hear."Charlotte clicked her tongue and said, "I'll go check."She was about to open the car door when Griffith said to the driver, "Drive."He didn't hear what happened, yet he wouldn't let her either.Lucy said, "Charlotte, let's head back to the hotel. Mr. Wilson should apply some medication to his injuries."Charlotte glanced at Griffith. He leaned back, and the dividing line of light and shadow cast on his face highlighted the reddened area on his chin.It was impressive how he had endured the pain for so long, considering

Chapter 538 Meeting Again

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

Chapter 539 Ask Him to Mind His Own Business

"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

Chapter 540 I Don't Want to Eat What You Bought

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
