Chapter 46 Mess up With Arthur
Evie stayed silent for a while.
“Hmm?”
Charlotte blinked, looking at her curiously.
Evie finally said, “I did ask someone else to do it.”
Charlotte responded with a helpless smile, “Alright then.”
After this event, they had learned their lesson.
They now knew that Arthur was not someone they could mess up with.
The next day, Charlotte received a call from Arthur. He told her someone would pick her up.
When she went downstairs, she saw Grace standing by the car. Dressed in a formal suit, Grace looked sharp and
professional. “Mrs. Harrison, Mr. Harrison askedto take you for styling,” Grace informed her.
“Okay,” Charlotte replied, nodding as she got into the car.
She was calm now, but when they arrived at their destination, Charlotte was stunned. The boutique was filled
with an array of feminine, elegant dresses and jewelry. Her expression nearly slipped out of control.

She thought, “Is he out of his mind?
Sarah is already back in his life, and yet he still wantsto dress like Sarah.
Doesn't he worry Sarah may find out and feel uncomfortable?”
The stylist rolled over a rack of clothes and said, “Mrs. Harrison, which one do you prefer?”
Charlotte shook her head. “I don’t like any of them.”
The stylist froze for a moment. “But... Mr. Harrison said these were your favorites...”
Charlotte rolled her eyes. Those were his favorites, not hers.
As she wandered around the store, a light blue dress caught her eye. Its shimmery fabric seemed to ripple like
water, and the halter design revealed a graceful neckline and shoulders.
“That one,” Charlotte said, pointing at the dress.
The stylist nodded. “Got it. Please change into it, and we'll start the styling.”

The charity gala was scheduled for seven that evening.
When Charlotte finished her styling and walked out of the shop, a car door opened from across the street. Even
from a distance, she could feel someone was staring at her.

She approached the car and slid into the seat. Arthur was inside, his gaze locked on her the moment she
entered.
Charlotte's complexion was
complemented by the blue gown, making her resemble an ice princess. Her hair was elegantly styled, adorned
with a diamond clip. She wore pearl earrings that gleamed against her swan-like neck. Her delicate shoulders
and defined collarbones
made her beauty seem almost ethereal, softening the striking features of her face.
She looked like a mermaid, silently enchanting everyone around her.
Straightening her back, Charlotte asked, “Well? Are you satisfied with my new
look?”

Arthur didn’t say a word. He simply averted his gaze, though his Adam’s apple moved slightly. The car started
smoothly.
When they arrived at the venue, Charlotte casually took Arthur's arm as they exited the car. Her smile was
perfectly measured, exuding grace.
As the heiress of the Hardwick family and Arthur's wife, she was no stranger to such occasions. She had long
since mastered the art of composure.
Inside the banquet hall, people quickly approached them to make small talk. When their eyes fell on Charlotte,
they couldn't hide their astonishment. All
around her, people couldn't help but offer her heartfelt compliments.

and colder. Standing beside him, Charlotte could even feel that coldness.
She didn’t know why he was upset.
Holding her champagne, she turned to him and whispered, “Is there someone here you don’t like?”
She thought he might have seen someone he disliked, which explained his sour face.
She herself, however, had to smile through gritted teeth despite she was detesting him.
She suddenly felt that she could be a good
actress.
Arthur's deep eyes briefly swept over her. Her gaze was bright and clear, tinged with a faint smile.

He suddenly felt that she had changed so much, and this version of her made him feel unfamiliar yet oddly
recognizable.
Before he could respond, a figure suddenly appeared, grabbing Charlotte's
arm.
