Charlotte thought returning ho would help her relax, but in reality, both Mr. Thompson and her brothers noticed her absent-mindedness.
Initially, Charlotte left the hotel out of anger and grievance, but now she hopes Justin Battleson would contact her and give an explanation.
Yet, no matter how long Charlotte waited, not even a single call or ssage from Justin ca through.
Staring at her phone lying quietly on the table, Charlotte couldn’t help but purse her lips.
"Charlotte?"
Jas Thompson’s voice brought Charlotte back from her daze. Seeing her sowhat bewildered expression, Jas smiled and took the vase from her hand, placing it on a nearby table.
His gaze then floated lightly over Charlotte’s phone, and he slowly asked, "I heard you went to the crew to act?"
Before Charlotte could feel surprised by Jas’ question, Felix Thompson, sitting not far away, jumped up from the sofa upon hearing it, quickly approaching Charlotte with curiosity in his eyes.
"Charlotte, you went to act? What role did you play?"
"It was just a minor role, nothing important. I just wanted to experience it," Charlotte explained with a dry laugh.
"You should have said sothing earlier. I rember Fourth Brother knows quite a few directors who could arrange a lead role for you..."
But before Felix could finish, Charlotte quickly waved her hand to refuse, "I don’t want to beco a professional actor; I went to the crew mainly because of Annie."
Charlotte didn’t want to elaborate on Annie’s matters, offering only a simple explanation to her brothers.
Just then, Jonathan Thompson’s voice ca from outside, "Felix, Justin Battleson he..."
He stepped into the villa and saw Charlotte standing with Jas and Felix; he swallowed the rest of his words.
Jonathan seed slightly anxious. He rested his fist by his side, coughed lightly, and winked at Felix.
"The battle is ready, Felix, are you coming?"
This inexplicable remark caught Charlotte’s attention, but as she looked up, she saw Felix nodding repeatedly, even glancing at Jas before leaving.
"Fifth Brother, I’ll go with Old Seven first. You stay here with Charlotte."
Watching Felix and Jonathan leaving side by side, Charlotte’s expression turned thoughtful.
Did she just hear Jonathan ntion Justin Battleson’s na?
Thinking this, Charlotte turned her gaze to Jas, who was arranging flowers in the vase.
"What’s the matter?" Noticing Charlotte’s gaze, Jas raised his eyes.
Seeing Jas’ smiling face, Charlotte lightly pursed her lips, then shook her head, indicating that it was nothing.
Seeing this, Jas stepped forward and gently ruffled Charlotte’s hair, positioning himself to block her view of the phone.
"Charlotte, have a good rest; you don’t look well. It’s not too late to make a decision after you wake up."
Charlotte was stunned for a mont, then nodded and returned to her room with Jas accompanying her.
Even though Charlotte felt physically exhausted, she couldn’t fall asleep as she lay on the bed.
Tossing and turning several tis, feeling restless, she sat up from the bed.
