“Ms. Waters!” Charlie greeted, putting on his usual handsome and calm facade. He then turned to Mrs. James,
“What’s up?”
“Didn’t see you all morning, thought you might want to come over and sit.” Mrs, James gestured to a chair next to
Waters. Please, have a seat. You’re so tall you’re blocking our sunlight.”
Waters laughed gently, 7 guess I’m your sunshade then”
Mrs. James giggled, “Being tall has its perks!”
Charlie chose to ignore their playful banter, pulling out a chair to sit next to Mrs. James. He glanced at some kids
nearby and suddenly felt a pang of homesickness
Waters frequently visited Mrs. James’ beauty spa. They’ve become pretty tight, especially after Waters had made a
point to win Mrs. James over. Mrs. James could see Waters’s efforts, and she was keen on setting her up with

Waters opened her bag, took out a black velvet box, and placed it in front of Charlie. She smiled faintly, “Mrs. James
mentioned your tie and knot today didn’t quite match, so we specially picked one out for you. Give it a try!”
Charlie glanced at the box with some big brand’s logo on it, I’m not the star of the show today. No need to be so
extra.”
“Waters went to two stores just for this. At least open it and see.” Mrs. James gave Charlie a look, hinting at him not
to embarrass Waters. Charlie pretended not to notice. He still wore that faint smile, but his eyes turned a bit cold.
“Mom, did you call me over for this?”
“You’re always not home lately. Can’t even chat with me now?” Mrs. James said with dissatisfaction. Try this tie clip.
Don’t make Waters’ effort go to
“Ms. Waters, thank you for your kindness, but I’m not a fan of this brand. Doesn’t your company want to bid for the
new project of the James family? It would be better if you put more effort into preparing for the bid” After saying
this, Charlie stood up, “Mom, I have friends over there, I’ll go first.”
“Charlie” Mrs. James called out with a frown.
But Charlie didn’t look back and left directly
Waters dropped her head in disappointment, “Ma’am, does Mr. James think I have ulterior motives for him, so I’m
deliberately trying to please him?”
She laughed at herself, “Does he look down on me that much? Even if I wanted to please him, it wouldn’t be with

Waters raised her head and smiled softly, “Ma’am, I’m not afraid of you laughing at me. I do like Mr. James very

Waters laughed. “Or else how could we hit it off so well? Right?”
“Absolutely!” Mrs. James held her hand tightly. “The sun is too strong. Let’s go inside and chat”
“Great” Waters laughed happily. She took Mrs. James’ hand and walked towards the house with her.
When they returned to the banquet hall, someone greeted Waters, “Waters, what are you doing here? Are you
close with Miss Jordan?”
“No” Waters smiled faintly. “When did you get back?”
Tve been back for a week. I plan to call you this weekend. I didn’t expect to run into you here”
Mrs. James added, “Waters, is this your friend? You guys chat, I’ll go talk to Josiah’s mom,”
“Sure” Waters responded immediately. Tl come find you later”
Mrs. James nodded slightly and walked away.
Waters’s friend looked at Mrs. James’ retreating figure and asked, “Who’s she?
