Charmaine had made so many sacrifices, even holding back her protests, hoping that her efforts would lift
Satan’s mood. Surely, this would do the trick, right?
It seemed she had underestimated the situation.
Emyr ate his borscht with gusto, but when his gaze shifted to Charmaine, the temperature in the room. seemed
to drop. His icy stare felt as though it could freeze her in place.
Charmaine, focused on serving him, was confused by his behavior.
What happened? Why is he so upset?
Wait... He said he was out having dinner, but he returned saying he lost his appetite, and his mood was colder
than winter. Surely, my guess is right.
It suddenly hit Charmaine, and she leaned forward, breaking the silence. “Mr. Emyr, were you out with that
mysterious woman today?”
Emyr furrowed his brows. “Who?”
“Con, Mr. Emyr, stop playing games.” Charmaine’s eyes glinted with mischief. “The one Mr. Keon mentioned
at the reception dinner. The one you were so quiet about, even usingas a shield. She must be important to
you.”
Emyr’s glare sharpened, his eyes narrowing. “What if | say yes? What then?”
His casual admission left Charmaine momentarily speechless.

She blinked, taken aback. “Nothing. If you had a date, it's none of my business.”
With that, she turned her attention away from him, scooping up the tender beef she had planned to give him and
adding them to her own bowl. She dug into the food with vigor, frustrated that her evening had been ruined by
him.
Of course, he had to take out his irritation onafter a bad date. Who else would he torture instead? I'm just
his punching bag.
Hah!
As Charmaine angrily shoved food into her mouth, Emyr raised an eyebrow slightly.
She was acting like she didn’t care, so what is she upset about now? he wondered.
As expected, women are never as indifferent as they claim to be.
Amused by the situation, Emyr picked up his utensils, casually tossing a piece of potato toward Charmaine’s
bowl. Of course, it was something he didn’t want.
Charmaine froze.
She was absolutely certain now-Emyr was deliberately taking his anger out on her.
Just look at the smug expression on his face, acting like nothing was wrong...

Her fists itched.
After finishing their meal, Charmaine stood up to pay the bill and say goodbye to the owner.
“No need, no need! It's rare for you to cback. Lettreat you both,” the owner insisted.
Charmaine ignored her and used her phone to transfer the money directly.

“I have ssoup base here. It should be enough for several meals. If you want more, you can make it yourself
at home.”
Charmaine was speechless but grateful, taking the jar. “Thank you.”
“No problem.” The owner smiled warmly. “By the way, Charmaine, your boyfriend's a good guy.”
“He's really not my boyfriend ...
“Silly child, I've been there. When | was chasing after my husband, he was just as distant, never bothering with
anyone. But when he looked at me... it was different.” The owner winked knowingly. “He’s serious about you.”
Charmaine had no idea how to explain, but then the owner added, “But you young people should be careful. |

What the heck?!

But...
Charmaine felt like crying. No matter how she tried to explain, it always seemed to make things worse.
The owner grinned, watching Charmaine’s face turn bright red with embarrassment, like an innocent girl who
had just realized what love was.
| used to think Charmaine was clueless about relationships, judging by how she interacted with the guy she was
here with before, but now, it seems like she’s figured it all out without anyone's help.
If Charmaine had known what the owner was thinking, she’d probably want to bang her head against a wall.
Back in Eastlake, it was nearing midnight.
Tad and Alfred had been waiting by the door, and only when they saw the two of them cback safely did they
breathe a sigh of relief.
Charmaine, smelling strongly of borscht, took a quick shower. Even after the warm water, her stomach felt
bloated. She opened her laptop and started working. Before she knew it, it was already the middle of the night
when she finally decided to rest.
The next day, as soon as Charmaine stepped into the classroom, she felt the strange. tense atmosphere in
