My Reborn Story Is Insane (Back to My Worst Birthday and Starting Anew)

“Mr. Emyr, you mentioned earlier that you would do everything you could to assist me with my reques can you help me with this?”

The study was so silent that Veronica’s voice coming through the phone speaker felt especially jarring.

On the other side of the call. Charmaine listened with a playful yet expectant tone, as if it was only natu for Emyr to take care of the matter. A frosty smile slowly took shape on her delicate features, remaining fixed in place.

Her gaze flickered toward Emyr at that moment.

Without realizing it, Charmaine let a faint trace of self–deprecation appear at the corner of her lips.

At the same time, Emyr instinctively lifted his gaze toward her.
