Until the "line disconnected" prompt sounded in the phone, Teddy Carter finally failed to suppress his emotions and hurled his phone onto the bed with fury.
His initially sorrowful expression gradually revealed a trace of coldness.
In the end, he picked up the phone next to him again and sent out a message.
"Alright, I agree to meet you."
...
Charlotte Thompson received the message while she was drinking coffee in Justin Battleson's office.
Gazing at the message displayed on the screen of her phone, Charlotte's eyes softened into a ripple of amusement.
"After work, we won't be leaving together. I'm going to meet someone."
Setting the coffee cup aside, Charlotte lifted her gaze toward Justin Battleson, who was walking in her direction.
Upon hearing her words, Justin's brows twitched as he sat down beside her, curiosity evident in his voice:
"Going to meet someone from Melissa Tanner's studio?"
