“These are the proofs,” Arthur said, pulling out his phone and showing her an email.
“I nearly got into trouble with Julius. | couldn't afford to ignore it, but Camoreham doesn’t have my connections,
so it took a bit longer to investigate.”
She instinctively resisted, shaking her head. “He has no reason to hurt you.”
Arthur seemed amused by her response. He locked eyes with her, leaned in, and trapped her between himself
and the sofa. His gaze swept over her face, lingering for a moment on her lips before he spoke, “Charlotte,
maybe you don’t have a clear picture of yourself, but I'm a man. | know exactly what goes through a guy’s mind
when he’s close to a woman. He's interested in you.”
Charlotte instinctively looked away, her eyes landing on his phone instead.
The details on the screen were thorough, from surveillance footage from the day of the incident to the
investigation’s
progress.

She had only heard him mention that they almost got hit by a truck on the highway, but seeing the footage now,
she couldn't help but feel a pang of fear.

At least he had managed to pick up Julius in tand they avoided the crash.

The car had been completely wrecked. If they'd been inside, the outccould've been devastating.
The initial investigation had pointed to the driver being drunk.
Drunk driving in the rain had caused such a serious accident, and the driver would definitely be facing tin
prison.
But he stuck to his story that he had been heavily drunk.
Arthur had his people dig into the driver's connections, and sure enough, they found something.
Two days before the incident, the driver's mother’s medical bills suddenly spiked by hundreds of thousands of
dollars, and his ex-wife's account received several million dollars. The transfer cfrom an overseas account.
However, Arthur's team traced it back to the fact that the driver's ex-wife had visited Pete’s shop.
Even though Pete hadn't directly been involved, this single clue was enough for Arthur to conclude that Pete was
somehow connected to the incident.
Charlotte scanned through all the materials, then looked up at him, a bit confused. “So, you're saying he’s
interested in me, and then decided to get rid of you all to clear the way?”

Arthur raised an eyebrow. “What, you really think so little of your own charm?”

Charlotte let out a light laugh. “I'll admit I'm pretty, but to say it all comes down to me? Isn't that a bit too far-
fetched? I don’t
want to take the blfor this.”
She handed the phone back to him, her tone calm but firm. “What | know is that Pete is my friend. I've known
him longer than I've known you, and | trust him. He would never hurt me.”

Arthur's expression darkened. He reached out, grabbed her chin, and lifted her face to study her features closely.
“Charlotte, blindly trusting someone like this? One day, you'll end up being betrayed without even realizing it.”
Charlotte brushed his hand away and frowned slightly, clearly irritated. “Don’t worry about me. I'm leaving.”
But Arthur grabbed her arm, stopping her. “Where are you going? Stay here and rest.”
With that, he sat down beside her and closed his eyes.
He wasn't feeling well, and he wondered if maybe he had drunk too much.
But his tolerance for alcohol had always been high, and now it felt like something inside him was burning, like a
fire spreading and growing stronger.

Just then, there was a knock on the lounge door.
“Excuse me, the auction is about to start.”
Charlotte stood up. “We have to go.”
As one of the hosts, they couldn't miss the auction.
