She froze for a second and looked back at Cynthia.
Cynthia nced <i>at </i>Nigel and walked over to her, “Weren’t you going to the bathroom? Mr. Hamilton asked me toe find you.”
Charlotte nodded and didn’t forget to say goodbye to Nigel.
Nigel watched the two of them leave and didn’t know what he was thinking.
Just then, a man came out of the men’s restroom, stopped next to him, and called him “sir.”
Nigel put away his expression, turned around, and said, “Let’s

Charlotte came to the parking lot with Cynthia, and Jaxson was already sitting in the car waiting.

A chilly ruby ne was around her fair neck.

She asked, “When can I have my phone back.”
Jaxson’s smile faded a little. His fingers brushed her corbone. “Your phone was old. I bought you a new one.”
“I used it pretty well.”
She brushed his hand away, but he gently held it. “Charlotte, don’t push me away.”
The bit of old feelings that Charlotte tried hard to forget suddenly stirred up. down, she asked herself, hasn’t she been rejected enough…
inside her. Deep
She still pulled her hand away, “Before, whatever Caroline asked you for, you just gave it to her, so you just naturally thought all women liked jewelry, brand names, and a fancy life, even liked new things and got tired of the old, right?”
Jaxson suddenly froze, “I didn’t mean that.”
“I said using the old phone was just fine, I didn’t need a new one, Jaxson, if you really wanted to make it up to me, you shouldn’t have forced something I didn’t like on me.”
After she finished talking, she didn’t care about his reaction and turned to look out the window. The people in the front row were all silent, and the atmosphere in the car stayed quiet for a long
time.

agreed and said, “Okay, then tell me what. you like.”
Charlotte paused, still facing away from him, “Give me your phone.”
He didn’t agree, and he didn’t say no either.
Not long after, when he held the phone out in front of her, her eyes suddenly lit up and she reached out to grab it.
He took it back at this point.
Charlotte reached out and tugged him, “Give it to me!”
Jaxson leaned back a little, she was pulled forward, half her body lying on top of him.
He took the chance to put his arm around her soft body, “Give

Realizing something, she brushed him off
a bit, “Phone.”

Charlotte was quiet for a moment, then suddenly kissed him on the cheek.
At that moment, his gloomy eyes gradually cleared up, and the darkness between his brows was
gone.

He cupped the back of her head in his palm and said in a hoarse voice, “You really kissed?”
She opened her hands, “Phone.”
Jaxson didn’t know whether tough or cry. He was just about to hand her the phone, but then he thought of something and pulled it back. “Take me off your block list.”
Charlotte said “Yeah, got it.”
Got her phone, Charlotte replied to the messages first, then contacted the hospital.
There was also a text from Reynald saying sorry, but she didn’t reply and just deleted it.
Jaxson of course noticed Reynald’s message. He closed his eyes like nothing happened. At that moment, he was really calm and also really hard to read.
Back at Brocade Retreat, she had just gotten out of the car when Jaxson’s voice came from behind her, “You can go back to the hospital.”
Her body paused, didn’t look back, and walked straight into the hall.
Cynthia turned to look at Jaxson, “Mr. Hamilton, were you going to…‘
“Find Reynald.”

Reynald wasn’t awake yet, and suddenly the doorbell rang.
He forced his sleepy eyes open and went to answer the door. Before he could see who was outside, the aggressive bodyguard knocked him to the ground.
The moment the pain hit, Reynald finally snapped out of it. He spat out a mouthful of blood, looked <i>at </i>Jaxson who just walked in, and guessed why he was here. “You’re here for Charlotte, aren’t you?”
Jaxson sat on the couch, not in a hurry or too slow. “You sent me the photo, right?”
“So what?” Reynaldughed. <i>“</i>Charlotte was married to you for six years. You know how you treated her. I just wanted to take her away.”
Jaxson’s face looked dark, his features sharp and striking. “What makes you think she’d go you? You had a hand in what happened between Charlie and Gustavo, didn’t you?”
His smile faded, “Yeah, Charlie was just an ident, and as for how Gustavo treated his daughter, it’s not like I didn’t look into it! He’s dead, so be it!”
“I was an aplice, but you, Jaxson, weren’t any better.”

Reynald looked fierce and said, “Caroline was spoiled by you, and even <b>if </b>you weren’t the killer in Charlie and Gustavo’s case, you were still the main reason for the Sutton family tragedy!”
Jaxson picked up the ashtray from the table and smashed it on his head.
Cynthia was so scared that her face turned pale, and the bodyguard next to her didn’t even dare to breathe.
Reynald held his head and fell to the ground, blood running down from his forehead along his nose. Jaxson picked up thendline nearby and dialed 911 on speaker. “Room 2668, Springcreek Hotel, Boulder Avenue, we have someone hurt and need an ambnce.”
After he finished talking, he got up and left with his people.
The moment he walked out of the hotel, he stopped in front of the car with a nk face, looked down at his bloodstained hand, and took out a handkerchief to wipe it.
In
my mind, Reynald’s words “Caroline was spoiled by you, and even if you weren’t the killer in Charlie and Gustavo’s case, you were still the main reason for the Sutton family tragedy” just wouldn’t go away.
He stopped for a minute.
