Chapter 203


    The next morning, Charis’s car stopped on the street outside the Larson Group’s building. She got out


    of the car and looked up at the magnificent building.


    It had been three years since she had left Seacisco. Many things had changed. Towering buildings


    dotted the streets everywhere she looked.


    The Larson Group waspletely different from what it was three years ago. Back then, the three


    worked day and night in a small studio. Now, the Larson Group had turned into a magnificent enterprise


    with thousands of employees working tirelessly for them.


    “Why are you reminiscing the past instead of going inside and seeing what your future looks like?”


    Charis turned around and saw Garrett. He pushed the golden-rimmed sses up the bridge of his nose


    and smiled gently. “I know you change your n and get back early. Gosh, you look so gorgeous now!”


    “You used to say that I behave like a boy. Anyway, did you get my gift? God, you’re a greedy man! Two


    bottles of La Romanee-Conti, huh?!” Charis joked, rolling her eyes.


    The meeting seemed to bring back memories of the past. The two relived their teenage days.


    However, Brandon wasn’t with them now.

    “Where is Brandon? How is he?” Charis asked as she followed Garrett into thepany.


    “You’re a heartless woman, Charis. I know you’re eager to meet him. You left without saying goodbye.


    I’m standing right before you right now, but you’re asking about him. That’s hurtful.” Garrett frowned. He


    sounded jealous.


    If Charis didn’t know Garrett well, she would have misunderstood him. “Come on, Garrett. I know those


    beautiful girlfriends of yours have taken good care of you. Anyway, how is Brandon?”


    Brandon’s mother had passed away when he was young, and no one took care of him.


    “He is a free bird. After all, he is…” Garrett bit his lip, for he almost blurted out the truth.


    He was aware of what had happened between Ethan and Charis. Therefore, he felt it would be better if


    Charis heard about Ethan’s marriage from the man himself. Otherwise, it would onlyplicate things


    further, and Ethan would scold him again.


    Garrett pouted, tilting his head toward the Larson Group’s building. “You’re going to meet him in a


    couple of minutes. Why are you still asking me about him? Go inside and see for yourself.”


    Charis smiled at him and walked into the building.


    The conference room on the top floor of the Larson Group was packed with people. The room was


    tastefully decorated.


    All senior executives had gathered to wee Charis back home, Brandon himself included. Brandon


    sat at the head of the table. His outstanding temperament and extraordinary appearance made him


    stand out from the rest.


    Charis easily spotted him in the crowd. Three years had passed, yet Brandon still managed to make


    her weak in the knees. Her heart raced at the mere sight of him.


    Charis slepttest night and hadn’t fully recovered from the jetg. But the excitement to meet


    Brandon seemed to energize her in an instant. She spent hours in front of the mirror, dressing up to


    impress him. Now, she was confident about her looks.


    All the senior executives came to talk to Charis. She politely greeted them and walked to Brandon.


    “Long time no see, Brandon.” Charis smiled and clinked her ss with his.


    She wanted to hug him and tell him how much she missed him and how lonely she had been for the


    past three years.


    A smile tugged at the corners of Brandon’s lips. He took a sip of the red wine, staring into the distance.


    It looked like he was thinking about something else. “You must be tired after the long journey. Wee


    back.”


    Charis sat beside Brandon. She wanted to spend her entire day talking to him.


    She thought Brandon would inquire about her personal life and what she had been doing for the past


    three years. But he was sipping on his wine without uttering a word.


    Brandon’s indifference broke Charis’s heart. “We are meeting each other after three years! Don’t have


    anything to say to me?”


    Brandon put down his ss and looked at her. “We have made huge profits from the overseas market


    this time. Thepany has decided to reward you for that.”


    Charis arched an eyebrow and looked at him with expectant eyes. “I obviously don’t want to work for


    free. What reward will I get?”


    “During the meeting with the senior executives, we decided to give you a promotion along with a raise.


    In addition to that, you will also get extra shares and a bonus. We will always treat you fairly,” Brandon


    said calmly.


    Charis’s jaw tightened; she was utterly disappointed.


    Brandon only regarded her as an excellent employee


    However, Charis wanted to earn his love and care, not mary rewards.
