Chapter 401 He's Playing Cute With one hand signing the agreement and the other handing over the check, the matter was considered closed after the notarization.

After his parents left, Charles immediately turned his attention to Emelie. Smiling broadly, he said, "Let's find a place to celebrate. Tonight's on me. How about we go to Lovelight?" Both Emelie and Ashley declined. Just the three of them going out? That didn't make much sense, and it'd be weird.

"Are you worried that there aren't enough people? Don't worry. I'll call a few more friends!" Charles took out his phone.

Anyone who didn't know better might think that he was Emelie's undercover agent in the Allen family. Who else would be so eager to celebrate after losing such a large sum of money? Since he was so enthusiastic, Emelie and Ashley had no choice but to go along. They might as well just treat it as having a meal together.

Charles had invited a man who seemed around 30 years old and looked mature and refined. Emelie didn't recognize him, but Ashley clearly hesitated when she saw him.

Charles introduced him and said, "This is my friend, Beathan Collins. I had originally wanted him to represent Elena's case. Since that's not necessary anymore, let's just forget about it and have a meal." Beathan had a handsappearance but an inscrutable expression. He shook hands with both Emelie and Ashley.

When he held Ashley's hand, he paused for a few seconds before releasing it with a smile when she moved slightly.

They sat around a large round table. Charles crossed his legs and said in a relaxed tone, "Mr. Collins is a famous criminal defense lawyer in Southern Region. Ms. Thornton, have you heard of him before?" Ashley remained calm. "I've heard of him." "Have you ever gone up against each other?" "Not yet." Beathan smiled slightly. "I hope we never have the chance to becadversaries, Ms. Thornton. I wouldn't be able to bear it." Ashley looked up coldly.

Beathan casually added, "I have a soft spot for pretty ladies." Charles laughed. “Oh, con, Beathan. Don't pretend as if your nicknin the legal world isn't 'The Pretty- Faced Grim Reaper."" Beathan lived up to his name. His smile was indeed compassionate.

Ashley was usually quiet, but she seemed even quieter that evening.

2/2 Emelie noticed and wanted to ask if she was feeling unwell. If she was, they could leave early since this meal wasn't necessary.

Suddenly, Charles leaned over to talk to Emelie. Just then, the door to the private room opened, and a waiter cin with the food. Out of the corner of her eye, Emelie saw that William, who had stormed off that afternoon, had also entered.

Emelie didn't think that Charles would call William over. It seemed most likely that William had found out that they were dining here and had con his own.

At that moment, Charles leaned in close to her ear and said, “Emelie, Elena wants to see you. She has something to tell you." Elena wanted to see her? Emelie looked at Charles in surprise.

Her eyes were beautiful, and when she gazed at someone absentmindedly, they held an unintentional depth. William walked in and saw this. He coldly kicked Charles' chair.

The chair had wheels, so it rolled away while taking Charles with it.

Charles put his feet on the ground to stop the chair. His smile remained on his face, but his gaze turned much colder as he asked, “Mr. Middleton, it's one thing to cuninvited, but did you have to get physical?"

With Charles' chair kicked away, there was now an empty spot beside Emelie Ashton, who had followed William in, moved a chair to that spot. Emelie looked at Ashton in surprise and delight. Had William allowed her to cback? Ashton set the chair in place and then smiled at her.

William sat down leisurely and said, "Not at all, Mr. Davis. I was just joking around with you." Charles forced a smile and replied, "I didn't find it funny."

"Then, I won't joke around like that with you next time." After dismissing Charles with a casual femark, William turned to Emelie and said, "I was waiting for you at the hotel, but you didn't cback." Given how he had left that afternoon, Emelie thought that he had returned to Capebatt City.

William said softly, "I had Ashton cback." Emelie looked at him in surprise. Why did it seem like he was trying to act cute?

It felt like he was trying to say that he had listened to her and brought back the person she wanted, and it seemed as if he was now asking if he had done well. X
