1/4 Charlotte stood with her hands behind her back , her expression calm .
I dont think Grandma was joking .
Arthurs expression grew serious .
Shes my grandmother .
You think I cant tell when shes messing around ? He took a step closer , standing right in front of her , his gaze intense .
Charlotte , dont make her upset .
Charlotte looked away , finally giving in with a small nod .
Alright .
Then , can I ask you something ? His tone was serious .
Charlotte blinked , slightly confused .
Whats up ? Arthur pulled out a small bottle , holding it out in front of her .
Do you know Ms.

She reached for it , but Arthur held it out of her reach with ease .
Thats mine .
Give it back .
You still havent answered my question , he said , clearly Chapter 377 Charity Gala enjoying the moment .
Charlottes pulse quickened .
Guilt crept into her chest .
She sighed , I have a friend who knows Ms.
Aroma .
I just wanted something for self defense , and she sold it to me .
I see .
2/4 Arthur nodded and handed her the bottle .
Fine .
But dont use it on me .
He turned to leave , his back straight .
Charlotte rolled her eyes , watching him go .
The truth was , the whole reason she created this thing was to use it on him if necessary .
Back at the dining room , Jennifer and Joseph had also come downstairs .
Everyone took their seats to eat .
Jennifer turned to Roxanne .
Roxanne , are you going to the charity gala tonight ? The charity gala , organized by the Lanceser Chamber of Commerce , was one of the most talked about events , and the Harrison Group was the biggest sponsor .

After all , she was once the fierce vice president of the Harrison Chapter 377 Charity Gala Group , helping build its vast empire alongside Bennett .
Im not going .
Ive retired , so Im not interested .
Roxanne waved her hand dismissively .
Jennifer nodded .
In that case , Ill go with Arthur .
3/4 But Roxanne shook her head .
No need for you to go .
Let Arthur go with Charlotte .
Jennifers face froze for a second .
Roxanne , Im the president of the charity foundation .
It might not look good if I dont attend .

Roxanne raised an eyebrow and said , Then you go , but make sure to keep an eye on Charlotte .
If she doesnt get something , you take care of it .
・ Jennifer lowered her gaze .
Got it .
Charlotte felt a bit reluctant .
She wasnt a fan of these kinds of events .
They were all about fake smiles and socializing , and even though she could handle it , she didnt enjoy it .
But since Roxanne had insisted , she didnt want to disappoint her , so she agreed .
