Charlotte was stunned for a few seconds before she pressed the answer button. "Hello?"

"Wait for me to return. We need to talk." The male voice on the end of the line was cold and unruffled.

"Okay," she responded jerkily.

She really wanted to ask about him and Tiffany, but she was afraid that, like before, she would touch his sore spot, so she didn't. Shane changed his posture, picked up a necklace with his long fingers, and said, "I heard that you like the color purple?"

"Are you bringing me a gift?" She was pleasantly surprised.

"You don't like purple?"

"I like it." She just didn't expect that he would buy her a gift.

"Well, I'm looking forward to coming back."

The sour feeling in Charlotte's heart dissipated quite a bit in an instant. She laid against the windowsill and looked at the stars in the sky. "Is it morning over there?" Shane replied calmly, "Yes. Around six o'clock."

"You're up so early."

"There is another meeting. I'll be back in the country the day after tomorrow at the latest. We will see each other at Braden and Anne's engagement party." "Alright."

They ended the call.

Charlotte suddenly felt that her relationship with Shane had deepened and was no longer as distant as before.

He said it was worth looking forward to, so she was looking forward to his return.

On the day of Anne's engagement party to Braden.

Charlotte, Zoe and Christopher arrived at the church together by car.

Since they had to arrive on their own anyway, it was more fun to go together.

Along the way, Charlotte was very excited. She looked forward to seeing Shane and having a good chat with him. After all, it had been a long time since they last saw each other.

A week? A week and a half?

She had never wanted to see someone as urgently as she did now.

The event was a buffet, but there were seats too. If you were tired, you could sit down and rest.

Charlotte didn't have anyone to greet, so she was separated from Zoe and Christopher. She sat down in the corner alone.

As she ate, she suddenly heard a commotion.

She raised her head subconsciously-

Shane walked in slowly, dressed in a black suit. As he walked unhurriedly, his tall and strong figure, as well as his handsome appearance, became the focus of everyone's discussion. Charlotte stared blankly at him. She subconsciously wanted to get up and meet him.

And yet.
