Chapter 213


    Charis had been busy dealing with the Larson Group’s affairs ever since she returned from abroad.


    She put herself under a lot of pressure just to impress Brandon and transform herself into a better


    partner for him.


    Now, she hoped that Kent would work his charm and win J’s heart.


    A week had passed. Charis didn’t know what was going on between Kent and J. She wanted to


    know if things were going ording to n.


    Charis had faith in Kent. He was a charmer. When they were still in college, almost all the girls from


    their ss were attracted to him. After all, Kent was a handsome and wealthy man who wouldn’t mind


    spending money for his girlfriends.


    Besides, J was an ordinary woman. Therefore, she believed it wouldn’t be difficult for Kent to win


    her over.


    Charis immediately called Kent and asked him to have dinner with her at a nearby restaurant.


    Kent arrived an hourte. He walked into the restaurant, looking tired and grumpy.


    “Why do you look upset? Is something wrong?” Charis was good at reading people’s minds. She


    chuckled to lighten his mood.


    However, she was actually a bit surprised. Judging by the look on his face, she could tell he hadn’t


    seeded yet.


    “The girl you mentionedst time is a tough cookie.” Kent pulled a chair and sat down, massaging his


    temples.


    “What? You failed to win her heart?” Charis took a sip of water and silently examined his face.


    “I tried every possible means, but that woman is a hard nut to crack.” Kent picked up the menu and


    flipped across the pages. Then, he snorted and threw it back on the table. “But it doesn’t matter, you


    know. She is quite cute.”


    Charis’s lips curled up. She was d to know that Kent was still interested in J.

    She put down the ss and looked at him. She didn’t expect Kent would struggle to win J over.


    Considering her initial n had failed, Charis decided to make a move before it was toote.


    The coboration with the Perkins Bank had entered its final stage.


    This afternoon, J hurriedly walked out of the office with the drawings.


    She yelped in shock as someone bumped over her, spilling coffee on her dress.


    “Oops, I’m sorry. I was busy reading the documents. I didn’t see you,” said a woman’s high-pitched


    voice.


    “That’s all right.” J rubbed the stains on her chest and looked up, her eyes widening in horror.


    She had been busy dealing with Kenttely that she almost forgot Charis.


    J thought that she at least wouldn’t have to meet Charis too often.


    “Are you J Lind?” Charis’s eyes lit up. She smiled and said, “Do you know that Ethan and I know


    each other? I recently found out that he’s married to you. I’m sorry for staining your shirt. Would you


    like toe to my office and change to something else? I have many clothes in my closet.”


    Before J could react, Charis dragged her away.


    Although she didn’t want to go to Charis’s office, part of her wanted to find out about the woman’s


    rtionship with Ethan. Therefore, she followed her.


    Seeing J walking out in the new outfit, Charis looked her up and down, smiling. “This color suits


    you very well. By the way, Ethan also likes blue.”


    J was buttoning up the shirt. Her hands stilled when she heard Charis’sment. “Are you two


    close?”


    Charis looked out of the window and smiled. “We were ssmates in high school and good friends.”


    After a moment’s pause, she added, “I don’t know if Ethan has told you this, but I liked him. I even


    confessed my love for him a couple of years ago.”


    J froze. She snapped up her head and looked at Chairs, the shock evident on her face.
