“I–I–I don’t know!”
“Haha, spend as you like, no need to save for me. Just buy some decent gifts, don’t embarrass me.” Gregory said as he put on his tie and suit, getting ready to leave.
He was very tall, with especially long legs!
Standing by the bed now, he had an imposing, commanding presence!
Charlotte blinked and asked tentatively, “I’m warning you, I spend money like water. Don’t regret it later.”
“Heh, as long as you don’t try to buy the whole planet, you can buy whatever you want.”
“Oh, and you can tell your parents and move out. Move in with me, or pick a place you like, so it’s easier for us to see each other.”
“Are you serious?”
“Do you think I’m joking?” Gregory ruffled her hair and bent down to kiss her again.
“Alright, I’m off to work. Get some more sleep!”
“This is your last warning: be good, and don’t flirt with other men. Especially Timothy–don’t see him anymore.”
His tone was especially stern on that last sentence.

Charlotte felt dizzy, her mind going completely blank.
Does this mean… they’ve officially started?
But he hasn’t officially confessed, and she hasn’t agreed to be with him
yet!
It wasn’t until Gregory left the bedroom.

She still hadn’t come to her senses, and it was even more impossible for her to fall asleep.
“Wh–what does this even mean?”
Her mind was in chaos right now, and she didn’t even have a chance to
react.
Besides, her marriage in her previous life had been a nightmare. She was still traumatized and didn’t want to enter into marriage so easily again.
“Oh no, I didn’t come home all night. Mom and Dad must be worried
sick.”
She forced herself to get up, summoning all her energy.
Wrapped in a bath towel, she left the bedroom to look for her phone.
Her clothes had all been torn, so she needed to find something to wear as soon as possible.
She walked into the outer bedroom.
She saw her bag on the sofa, and next to it were several shopping bags containing clothes of different styles.
It seemed Gregory had already asked the servants to prepare a change of

clothes for her.
“Hmm, at least he thought of everything.”

She didn’t have time to change, so she quickly opened her bag and took out her phone to check it!
To her surprise, her parents hadn’t called her or tried to contact her!
“Why is this so strange?”
Instinctively, she opened WhatsApp to check.
Around nine o’clock last night, her mother had called her twice.
At 9:30, her WhatsApp had replied to her mother!
“Mom, I won’t be coming home tonight. There’s something at work I need to handle, and it’s too late to go back. I’ll just stay at the office tonight.”
After reading the message, she looked stunned. “Oh my god, when did I reply to my mom?”
She tried to recall last night.
At 9:30… she had probably already passed out from exhaustion!
It was probably Gregory who replied for her.
“Wait, how did he know my phone password?”
Her phone didn’t have fingerprint or facial recognition enabled.
It could only be unlocked with a password.
She really couldn’t figure out how Gregory had guessed her phone password.

“Forget it, I’d better just go home first!”
She changed into new clothes and left the bedroom.
The living room downstairs was empty, not a servant in sight.
She didn’t dare linger, and slipped away like a thief.

After leaving Gregory’s house, she went straight to the company.
By the time she arrived, it was already ten in the morning.
Even though she was exhausted and her limbs felt weak and sore.
She still pulled herself together and asked Andy to notify the company’s executives for a meeting.
The plan Timothy gave her yesterday was very feasible.
