Chapter 48 Has He See Us Arthur asked , Who are you looking for ? I can help you find them .
Jayce pressed his lips , his gaze shifting toward the direction of the restroom .
But he quickly lowered his eyes again , muttering , My grandfather said shes called Ms.
Aroma .
Hearing this , Arthur raised an eyebrow .
Her incense sticks had an effect on you , didnt it ? Yes , Jayce answered .
Arthur nodded .
Alright , Ill find her and bring her to you .
Jayce said nothing .
2/8 Jayce thought , I have already found her .
But it seems she doesnt want to acknowledge him .
Jayce didnt know why .
He felt that it might be because he scared her .
He thought that if that were the case , he wouldnt go looking for her .
He didnt want to fright her further .
***** Charlotte finished retouching her makeup and walked out distractedly .
As she rounded the corner , she saw Jayces figure disappearing through the emergency exit .
3/8 Her eyes lit up , and she immediately followed him .
The stairwell was quiet , in stark contrast to the bustling charity gala .
Charlotte closed the door behind her and said , Jayce .
The slender figure paused for a moment , then slowly turned his face in the dim light , staring at her intently .
Charlotte walked right up to him , her gaze fixed on his eyes .
You saw my face , didnt you ? Jayce didnt speak or react .
The green light from the emergency exit sign flickered on his face , illuminating the mole at the corner of his eye , making him appear more seductive and eerie .

He See Us 4/8 Charlotte felt her palms sweat from nervousness .
She spoke quickly , Can I ask you for a favor ? Please dont tell anyone about my identity .
You can ask for anything , and Ill do whatever it takes to meet your request .
Jayce blinked slowly , his eyes falling downward to conceal the emotions hiding beneath them .
Is that okay ? Seeing that Jayce didnt respond , Charlotte asked again .
Jayce finally spoke , Do you still have those incense sticks from that day ? Yes , Charlotte replied quickly .
But I didnt bring it today .
How about we set up 5/8 a time , and Ill give it to you then ? Okay .
Jayce said this softly , then took out his phone .
He was silent and delicate , impossible to read .
Charlotte added his phone number .
Ill make sure to supply you with the incense sticks whenever you need it .
Jayce didnt respond .
He pocketed his phone and turned to leave .
Charlotte let out a small sigh of relief .
Seeing he had agreed , she felt that the weight hanging over her head lifted .
As she opened the stairwell door , she was suddenly startled ! US Arthur was standing right there as if he was about to push the door open .
Her heart , which had just calmed , sank again .
She thought , What is going on ? Has he seen us ? 6/8 Charlotte steadied herself .
What are you doing here ? Arthurs gaze fixed on her , his deep eyes unreadable .
What are you doing here ? Charlotte quickly came up with an excuse .
I dont like events like this , so I came here to get some air .
7/8 After a brief pause , she cautiously asked , I have that right , dont I ? Arthurs lips pressed into a thin line .
He glanced behind her , but there was no one in sight .
Earlier , Delia had come to find him , saying Jayce had disappeared again and asking for his help .
As Arthur walked this way , he saw Charlotte entering the stairwell .
Recalling Jayces strange persistence and his strange words , a flicker of suspicion rose in Arthurs chest .
He had come straight here , and when he pushed open the door , he saw her here .
Charlotte told him that she was just here to get some air .
ز Sure .
He responded coldly , As my wife , you should be by my side at all times .
Alright .
Charlotte nodded and linked her arm with his .
Arthur glanced down at her slender arm resting on his , the tips of her fingers curled lightly around his arm , and the coldness in his eyes softened a little .
