Out of caution, Charis decided not to meet Janet. Instead, she walked to Tiffany’s office and smiled at
the employees along the way.
“Miss Turner, I didn’t expect to meet you again after three years.” Tiffany smiled and stood up to shake
hands with Charis. “I was busy with work, so I couldn’t come out to welcome you. Please forgive me.”
Charis let go of her hand and sat cross-legged on the leather chair opposite Tiffany. “Well, I don’t like
occasions like these, anyway. I’m glad you didn’t come out. Otherwise, the place would get too
crowded.”
Tiffany smiled. “Are you here to talk about work with me?”
Tiffany knew that Charis was in charge of the marketing department before.
“I heard the design department has witnessed rapid development in the past few years after I left. Our
designs are a huge hit all over the country. I came to see what everyone’s been talking about.”
Tiffany nodded in understanding and briefly reported their current situation to her.
“When did she start working here?” Charis asked, flipping through Janet’s designs. Her face bore no
expression.
“This is our new designer, Janet Lind. She has incredible talent, and all her designs are unique. She
has contributed a lot to our company. Mr. Larson appreciates her work, and I also think she is an asset
to our company.”
Charis remained silent. Tiffany was a picky woman. If she praised Janet, it meant the woman was
indeed talented.
Charis dejectedly put down the drafts. Janet seemed like a bigger threat now.
Not only was she beautiful but seemed like a bundle of talent as well. It wasn’t surprising that Brandon
wanted to hone her talent. Charis couldn’t help but wonder if Brandon was really serious about being
with this woman.
“Okay. I should leave you to your work.” The moment Charis left the office, the smile on her face
disappeared.
She had to somehow separate the two before Janet knew the truth.
He and Janet were worlds apart. The woman was born into an ordinary family, which meant money and
power could easily lure her. Charis felt Janet would never let go of Ethan if she knew he was the CEO
of the Larson Group.
After work, Charis planned to have dinner with a friend.
He was the son of the Perkins family — a handsome, wealthy man. However, he was also a notorious
playboy in the city. He had dated countless women. The man was a charmer and could get any woman
in bed. But despite that, he had never been with a woman for more than three months.
Kent Perkins was talking over the phone as he walked into the box. “Get a goddamn abortion! Don’t
call me again,” he grunted impatiently.
One of the women he had dated had been pestering him for the past few days. She was a married
woman. Kent, as usual, had abandoned her after getting what he wanted. However, the woman
claimed to be pregnant with his child and insisted on keeping the baby. She had also said she wanted
to divorce her husband and be with him, which forced Kent to flee the UK and return to Seacisco.
“Gosh, you haven’t changed one bit. One day, you’ll pay the price for all this!” Charis’s nose scrunched
up with disgust.
If her family wasn’t friends with the Perkins, she wouldn’t want to be associated with Kent in any way.
He had tricked a lot of women into bed with his charm.
Kent was used to her attitude. He took off his coat and hung it on the back of his chair before filling her
glass with wine. “What’s up?” he asked, smiling.
Charis seldom asked him out.
“Nothing. I just haven’t seen you for three years, so I wanted to catch up.” Charis shrugged
noncommittally.
Kent was indeed happy to have dinner with a beautiful woman.
The two chatted as they ate. Gradually, Charis shifted the topic to women, which she knew would
undoubtedly captivate Kent’s interest. She casually mentioned Janet in the conversation, praising her
beauty.
“How beautiful is she?” Kent sounded curious. “Do you have any photos of her?”
Charis took out a photo of Janet at work and showed it to him. Kent’s eyes widened as he looked at the
picture. He took the phone and zoomed in, examining every inch of her beautiful face. “Wow! Pretty is
an understatement. She seems innocent though.”
“Well, she looks more beautiful in person. But, unfortunately, she is married. I don’t think you can get
her.” Charis took back her phone just to rub his ego.
“Oh, really?” Kent’s brows shot up as if he was already interested in the challenge. “What if I got her?”
Charis knew that Kent was determined to get Janet to prove himself. She was his next conquest.
However, she smiled and played along. “Well, that means you’ve won. I will introduce you to all the
beautiful women I know. Can’t wait to see how you’re going to get her.”
