Win My Forsaken Ex Wife Back Chapter 240 Keep Your Distance 1/5 Seeing this , Charlotte raised an eyebrow , puzzled .

Mr.

Caldwell , arent you going home ? Jayce replied , I havent been to your place yet .

She thought , Uh … does he really just want to visit my home ? That doesnt seem likely .

Still , it was hard to refuse him , especially after he had stood up for her not long ago .

Charlotte forced a smile and said , Isnt it a bit late ? Maybe you could come over tomorrow instead ? Jayce said , Youll be busy tomorrow .

Well , that was true .

She needed to check on the renovations at her studio and oversee some details in person .

Glancing at the time , Charlotte sighed , Alright then , youre welcome to come to my place .

As soon as the words left her lips , the elevator doors slid shut .

The confined space felt increasingly heavy with a tense Chapter 240 Keep Your Distance atmosphere , an unsettling chill creeping up from the floor .

2/5 Just a few seconds later , the elevator doors opened again , and Charlotte stepped out , glancing back at the two men following her .

Jayce had explicitly said he wanted to visit ; what about Arthur ? Her clear eyes met his as she asked , Do you need something from me ? I do , Arthur replied , his face devoid of any real emotion though his eyes were fixed on her .

Charlotte wasnt in the mood for a lengthy conversation .

Lets talk tomorrow , she said , moving to close the door .

Arthurs expression darkened as he caught the door with one hand , pushing it open with a slight force and stepping inside without invitation .

Hey … Charlotte frowned , clearly annoyed by his brazen behavior .

Arthur , however , seemed completely unfazed .

He shrugged off his coat and tossed it over her shoulders , then strolled into the kitchen as if it were his own home , pouring himself a glass of water .

Charlotte yanked the coat off her shoulders and tossed it straight Chapfer 240 Keep Your Distance into the trash without a second thought .

Arthur caught the movement but didnt seem bothered .

He turned to Jayce and asked , What do you want to drink ? Just water , Jayce replied .

Arthur poured him a glass and plopped down on the couch , saying , Make yourself at home .

Then he smirked , adding , Its a bit rude to visit someones house without bringing a gift .

Dont forget to bring something next time .

Jayce paused , taken aback .

He thought , Bring a gift ? For her ? Confusion flickered in his eyes before a spark of realization lit them up .

Jayce turned to Charlotte .

What do you like ? 3/5 Arthurs gaze turned icy .

Thats not how it works .

She wont just tell you what she wants .

Its about your thoughtfulness .

Jayce persisted , his eyes still on Charlotte .

With a resigned sigh , Charlotte said , I dont need anything .

Were neighbors and friends ; I dont care about gifts .

Arthur chimed in , Thats your perspective .

If he doesnt bring a gift , it just shows a lack of manners .

Sir Caldwell didnt teach him well , but I will .

Chapter 240 Keep Your Distance Charlotte was at a loss for words .

Jayces gaze dropped to the ground , and he said softly , You dont see it , do you ? She doesnt want you here .

4/5 Arthur scoffed , saying , What couple doesnt argue ? Ill make her feel better , but you , as a friend , should keep your distance .

The message was clear , he had no right to interfere in their relationship .

Jayces expression darkened as he thought , I dont have the right now .

When will I ? After she divorces ? When will that be ? The tension in the room thickened , and Charlotte felt increasingly uncomfortable .

Glancing at the clock , she said , Its getting late ; I think I need some rest .
