However, before Charlotte could react, Justin Battleson took a stride towards her and enveloped her in his arms.
"Justin, you... mm..."
As soon as Charlotte opened her mouth, Justin’s fiery kiss landed on her, leaving her speechless.
But at this mont, Charlotte was still on the phone. On the other end, Jonathan Thompson, upon hearing Charlotte’s hesitant voice, imdiately grew anxious.
"Charlotte, what’s wrong? Why..."
Jonathan’s incessant questioning ca through the phone, causing Justin’s brow to furrow deeply. Without hesitation, he hung up the call and tossed the phone aside.
Then, without giving Charlotte any chance to react, he pressed his palm against the back of her neck and resud the kiss from before.
This kiss felt like a punishnt, urgent and passionate, like waves engulfing Charlotte, making it hard for her to catch her breath.
Charlotte’s palm pressed tightly against Justin’s chest, feeling the strong heartbeat beneath his skin.
After a long while, Justin finally released Charlotte. Her body felt a bit weak, and she lifted her gaze to look at Justin, only to find his expression dark.
This made Charlotte feel sowhat baffled.
Justin was clearly trending online, so why was he facing her with such an expression?
Charlotte felt a bit upset inside. She initially wanted to turn away from the situation, but Justin wouldn’t give her that chance.
Justin’s hand pressed against Charlotte’s shoulder, looking at her seriously.
"The incident with the film crew was just an accident. I didn’t know I’d et anyone there."
At Justin’s explanation, Charlotte pursed her lips. "I rember you don’t usually manage the affairs of the film company. Why did you suddenly think to visit the film crew this ti?"
"Because I’ve been thinking about sothing that concerns greatly." Justin’s gaze was intense.
"Charlotte, why did you et with Leon Battleson in private?"
Hearing Justin’s inquiry, Charlotte blinked in surprise.
"How do you know about this?"
Charlotte’s reaction was caught by Justin, causing an unusual emotion to flash in his eyes.
Noticing Justin’s unusual expression, Charlotte no longer concealed anything and imdiately said:
"I didn’t expect to run into Leon Battleson at the mall. I originally didn’t want to talk to him, but he wanted to discuss our group and Worsen’s follow-up cooperation issues with . But he ended up not saying anything useful, so I left right away."
Charlotte lowered her gaze.
"Then why didn’t you tell ?" Justin pressed.
"Because I thought I wouldn’t have any dealings with Leon Battleson after that, and I also don’t want to ntion Leon in front of you."
At this point, Charlotte grasped Justin’s palm, tightly pinching his fingertips.
"I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have kept this from you." Charlotte pouted, feeling a bit guilty.
Upon hearing this, Justin reached out and pulled Charlotte into his arms, his body finally relaxing at this mont.
anwhile, a hint of annoyance surfaced in Justin’s mind.
How could he let doubt about Charlotte arise in his heart?
Just then, a shout ca from outside the villa.
"Justin Battleson, co out here!"
The familiar voice made Charlotte glance at Justin, and she inwardly muttered, "Oh no."
