Win My Forsaken Ex-wife Back Novel

Chapter 378 Asking for Trouble 1/4 Charlottes hand slipped into his , and she gracefully stepped out of the car .

She wore a custom made black gown , elegant yet understated .

Her long , wavy hair cascaded over her shoulders , and the only accessory she wore was a simple pair of pearl earrings .

The whole look was effortlessly chic , perfectly in tune with the theme of the evening .

At a charity gala like this , anything too extravagant would have been out of place .

Without hesitation , Charlotte linked her arm with Arthurs , and the two walked into the venue together .

A few reporters caught sight of them walking hand in hand and quickly snapped a picture .

The lighting highlighted them perfectly , casting a soft glow that seemed to hint at some unspoken fate between them .

The moment felt surreal , and anyone watching couldnt help but be captivated .

Inside the grand banquet hall , guests gathered in small clusters , chatting and catching up .

As soon as Arthur entered , all eyes were on him .

It didnt take long for a crowd to form around him , eager to get his attention .

Chapter 378 Asking for Trouble Charlotte held a glass of champagne in her hand , effortlessly navigating the social scene without breaking a sweat .

2/4 The gala would feature a charity auction , with priceless antiques and treasures up for bidding .

All proceeds would go to the charity fund .

Before the auction began , a violinist played on stage , the soft melody filling the air and adding to the sophisticated atmosphere .

After mingling for a while , Charlotte started to feel bored .

Luckily , Arthur released her hand and said .

Why dont you go take a break ? She smiled faintly , nodded , and turned to leave .

A nearby guest commented , Mr.

and Mrs.

Harrison really are a perfect couple .

Yeah , theyre definitely a match made in heaven .

Charlottes smile faded slightly .

Five years ago , after that incident , these same people werent so kind .

Wow , the Hardwick familys daughter is actually this shameless ? Honestly , I didnt see it coming .

She looks so innocent , but all she cares about is marrying up .

22 Chapter 378 Asking for Trouble 3/4 We should stay away from women like her .

Who knows when well get used and tossed aside ? ***** Charlotte picked up a few pieces of fruit and some desserts from the buffet and headed to the rest area .

Just as she sat down , someone approached her .

Arent you supposed to be getting a divorce from Arthur ? Why are you here with him ? Are you having second thoughts ? It was Sophia , wearing an extravagant designer gown that sparkled with jewels .

She was already beautiful , but tonight , she looked every bit the part of a high society diva .

None of your business .

Charlotte didnt even glance at her , calmly eating her fruit without a word .

Sophia smirked .

I knew it.

A woman who goes through all that just to catch a rich guy like Arthur isnt going to let him go that easily .

Youre just pretending , arent you ? So tacky .

Charlotte finally looked up , her eyes cold as she met Sophias gaze .

What gives you the right to judge me ? Youre openly chasing after a married man , and you think youre some kind of saint ? Sophias expression faltered .

Chapter 378 Asking for Trouble 4/4 Charlottes voice was sharp .

Apologize .

Or Ill just do what you want and call off the divorce .

Then Ill tell Arthur how youve been bullying me .

You think he wont do something about it ? A mocking smile tugged at the corner of her lips .

What , do you think hell just let you off the hook ? Maybe cut off all your contracts ? She couldnt help but laugh inwardly .

Sophia clearly had a short memory .

It seemed the lesson Charlotte had taught her before wasnt enough .

In such a public setting , Sophia had to keep her cool , but Charlotte could see her fingers tightening around her wine glass .

Dream on !
