Chapter 171 Take It Away
Hendrick’s visit surprised Charlotte, especially since they had had an unpleasant history. However, she quickly
realized his intentions.
Hendrick’s gaze kept drifting toward Arthur.
Charlotte remained calm. “I'm fine.”
Hendrick seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, “That's good. Don’t worry about work. I've already
coordinated with the manager, and we've freed up enough tfor you to focus on recovery.”
Changing the subject, he looked at Arthur. “Mr. Harrison, Charlene is truly dedicated to her work. The photos she
takes are full of life and absolutely stunning. There's a lot that | need to learn from her.”
Hendrick’s demeanor shifted entirely when he turned to Arthur, his obsequiousness now blatantly obvious..
He had previously suspected that Arthur and Charlotte’s relationship might not be harmonious, but seeing Arthur

Arthur shot Hendrick a cold glance, his mind flashing back to the trending photos he had seen earlier.

“My nis Hendrick Andrew, Mr. Harrison,” Hendrick quickly introduced himself, his excitement bubbling up
inside. He couldn't believe an influential figure like Arthur was taking notice of him. Hendrick thought if he could
land a role in a movie, his career would skyrocket.
“I don’t know you,” Arthur replied, his tone growing colder. “If you're an actor, you should focus on your craft. Do
you even have the skills? Did you even finish your training?”
Hendrick froze, his face turning red with discomfort.
At this time, Grace said, “Mr. Andrew, Mrs. Harrison still needs rest. You should leave now.”
Realizing he was no longer welchere, Hendrick quickly placed the flowers down and said, “Charlene, get
well soon.”
“Take it with you,” Arthur's cold voice cut through the air. Flustered, Hendrick grabbed the bouquet and quickly
left.
Grace stepped out and closed the door behind her, ensuring no one else would enter the room unannounced.
Charlotte had eaten nearly half of her meal when she suddenly felt Arthur's cold gaze fixed on her face.

Upon hearing this, his expression darkened. She had regained her composure. That tearful, fragile version of her
from earlier was gone. He thought, “She should definitely consider acting.”
As it got late, Charlotte persuaded Mabel to go hand rest. The little girl hesitated at first, but seeing the
small bed and realizing she needed care herself, she reluctantly left.
Charlotte lay back down, and just as she settled in, the door opened, signaling Arthur's return.
“Aren’t you leaving?” she asked, puzzled.
Arthur's sharp features remained unreadable as he replied, “Aren't you sleeping? You want to do something fun
instead?”
“He’s nuts!” Charlotte cursed internally before turning to the other side of the bed and closed her eyes.
Arthur quickly washed up and when he cout of the bathroom, he found her already asleep. As he observed
her more closely, he noticed how worn out she looked. Thinking back to her pitiful state earlier, he felt his heart
tighten as if an invisible hand had squeezed it, leaving him with a feeling of discomfort and frustration.
