Win My Forsaken Ex-wife Back Novel

Chapter 65 This Man Is Impossible Barrett was startled and quickly shook his head .

Arthur , dont even joke about that .

Im a law abiding , upstanding citizen .

Arthur let out a faint scoff , not bothering to respond .

His gaze shifted back to Charlotte .

The bottle of vodka was now empty .

Finally , Charlotte slammed the empty bottle onto the table .

She closed her eyes for a moment , trying to suppress the rising wave of discomfort .

She had never drunk anything so strong before , let alone an entire bottle .

While she still had a shred of composure left , she knew she had to leave quickly .

Mr.

Harrison , Ive finished the drink , she said , standing up and forcing her legs to stay steady .

Arthur waved his hand , and Charlotte took that as her cue to leave .

Without hesitation , she turned to go .

I didnt say you could leave .

Arthurs voice rang out , stopping her in her tracks .

Charlotte froze and thought , What ? He isnt letting me leave ? If I dont leave soon , Im going to pass out .

Barrett immediately caught on and jumped up .

Alright , lets head down to the lounge and take a lap .

The others quickly got the hint , scrambling to their feet and filing out of the private room .

Jayce , however , remained seated on the sofa , his eyes fixed on Charlotte .

It was clear she was starting to sway slightly the alcohol was hitting her hard .

Chapter 65 This Man Is Impossible .

2/3 the second .

Her trembling fingers managed to pull a small box from her pocket .

She opened it and took out a scented tablet , snapping it in half before holding it under her nose .

The sharp , minty aroma immediately filled her senses , temporarily suppressing the dizzying effects of the alcohol .

It was just a prototype a scent tablet designed to counteract the effects of alcohol .

It wasnt perfect yet , and she made a mental note to refine it further later .

Arthurs deep eyes glimmered with interest as he watched .

Whats that ? Charlotte answered honestly , Its a scent tablet I developed to help counteract alcohol .

Arthur didnt hold back his praise .

Ms.

Aroma , your talent for crafting scents is truly impressive .

Charlotte gave him a faint smile .

Its alright .

Mr.

Harrison , can we talk about business now ? Arthur lifted his hand slightly , motioning for her to sit .

Without hesitation , Charlotte took a seat on one of the sofas .

Her tense body relaxed just a fraction as she said , Mr.

Harrison , I value my freedom and dont like being tied down .

So instead of signing a long term contract , how about if we settle each project individually ? The bright light overhead cast a glow on Charlottes figure .

The golden butterfly mask on her face was both dazzling and mysterious .

Behind it , her clear eyes held a glimmer of determination that gave Arthur a strangely familiar feeling .

Chapter 65 This Man Is Impossible 3/3 Arthurs expression remained neutral as he studied her .

And if you decide to run ? Where would I find you ? Charlottes mouth twitched .

Im not going to run .

Arthur responded flatly , If its not written down , signed , and sealed , I dont trust it .

Charlotte thought , This man is impossible .

She took a deep breath , but the alcohol shed fought off earlier threatened to rise again .

Mr.

Harrison , she began , Ill adjust my formulations based on your condition to help you recover as quickly as possible .

Does that work for you ? Arthur said with a faint smile , Ms.

Aroma , you are a miracle worker now ? Claiming you can cure anything just like that .

His deep voice carried a teasing edge , casual and dismissive .

It was obvious he didnt take her words seriously .

To him , it was simple -no contract , no deal .

Charlotte felt helpless , just looking at him .

With a sigh , she placed the fragrance product on the table .

Take this and try it first .

If it works , we can discuss the next steps .

How does that sound ? Her entire demeanor radiated resistance , yet Arthurs eyes glinted faintly with intrigue .
