He would protect her in front of others and avoid contact with her in private?

Charlotte didn't expect Shane to nullify their relationship just because of what happened in the past. Sadness and bitterness filled her heart.

"I see. I won't ask such a stupid question again. Rest well. I'm heading back first."

She forced herself to keep her sadness to herself, but she could no longer bear to stay and face him.

She needed time to be alone.

Charlotte ran out in a hurry staggering and almost falling down.

Shane stood up from his chair abruptly and walked towards her.

With her back facing him, Charlotte steadied herself as quickly as she could. Holding on to the wall with her hands, she ran out in a hurry.

Shane stopped, raised his hand, and pressed it to his forehead. The muscle in his jaw tightened. His eyes were full of worry, but all he could do was watch her stumble away. He was not trying to sever all ties between

them.

Shane took out his phone and dialled a number. A moment later, Cole walked in.

"Go and find out what Charlotte likes."

"Yes, sir."

She seemed to have misunderstood him.

Shane massaged his temple.

Charlotte returned to her room alone and she flipped open the documents again to read them.

She needed other things to take her mind off Shane.

It was past three o'clock in the morning, and she still didn't fall asleep. After showering, she stood on the balcony with her hair wet, enjoying the night breeze.

Did he have to sour their relationship that was originally tense to begin with just because of an incident that happened more than 10 years ago?

Thinking about it carefully, she was overreacting today as well, not giving him the chance to finish his sentence.

Perhaps she would have to find an opportunity to have a chat with him.

The next day.
