Chapter 172 Attracted to Her Voice


    Chapter 172 Attracted to Her Voice


    Although its name might seem ordinary, the Lotus Hotel''s design was very novel. Seen from a


    distance, the entire building looked like a blooming lotus, and it had a well-deserved reputation as a


    five-star dining spot.


    Charlotte and Nelson stepped out of the car, and the receptionist quickly weed them.


    Amanda and Helena had already arrived, and they were both nervous right now.


    Though she appeared to be confident, in fact, she held a deep fear of the man who was said to be


    scary. Regardless of his looks, Nelson represented absolute power.


    "Helena," Amanda held her daughter''s hand and asked, "Have you made up your mind?"


    Helena gritted her teeth and replied, "I''ve decided! I won''t let Charlotte, that bitch, grind me down!


    Rest assured, and I''ve got everything prepared. This time, I''m going to ruin Charlotte''s reputation!"


    Amanda sighed and nodded, "As long as you''re prepared."


    Suddenly, when they heard footsteps approaching, Helena and Amanda turned their gaze towards


    the entrance nervously. They saw a man wearing a pair of long ck pants and a deep blue shirt


    walk inside. He had long legs and an incredibly handsome yet serious face.


    He seemed toe from another world.


    Charlotte followed behind Nelson, her fingers tugging at his shirt sleeve. Since she was much


    shorter, she had to hop a bit to say to him, "You can''t do this!"


    Nelson replied with a smile, "Why can''t I? You''re mine... I''m just moving your closet to my room."


    Charlotte was fuming, but she was tall enough to look down on him as she talked to him. She


    pouted and noticed a small step with a potted nt nearby. She stood on top of it and was finally


    taller than him. She said, "You can''t do that!"


    Nelson raised his eyes and said, "Little one, your cousin and your aunt are here."


    Charlotte fell silent.


    Charlotte froze for a second, then turned to find Amanda and Helena, both gripping their chairs and


    looking stunned in their direction.


    This was so embarrassing.


    She hadn''t even realized they had arrived.


    Nelson had scooped her up in his arms, which startled Charlotte. She clung to his neck and said


    with her cheeks burning, "Please put me down..."


    Nelson asked, "You were quite angry just now, weren''t you? Aren''t you going to be naught again?"


    Charlotte was not so cheeky as him and quickly agreed, "Alright, you win! Just put me down,


    please."


    Nelson chuckled and put her down. She straightened her sleeves, coughed, and waved while


    greeting them, "Amanda... Helena, hi."


    Amanda who didn''t dare to talk to Nelson forced a polite smile and said, "You''re here. Please, take


    a seat."


    She nudged Helena, who had juste to her senses and was now gazing at Nelson in disbelief.


    This man, who was said to be old and ugly... Could he look so attractive? If he looked like this,


    Helena would happily spend a night with him, even if he were homeless and penniless!


    Charlotte frowned and looked at Helena and then at Nelson. She intentionally pulled a chair that


    was away from Helena for Nelson, but Helena quickly came to them and sat by Nelson''s right hand.


    She said in a sweet voice, "You must be Mr. rk, right? It''s truly a pleasure to meet you. I''m


    Helena, Charlotte''s cousin."


    In the past, Nelson might just ignore her, but this time, he briefly nced at Helena and said,


    "Charlotte has mentioned you before."


    Helena looked ttered and asked, "Really?"


    Charlotte bit her lip and poured herself a ss of lemon water. Amanda asked, "I have ced


    orders. Should I call the waiter to serve the dishes?"


    The waiter soon brought over the food. However, Charlotte found herself with little appetite. Nelson


    ladled a bowl of chicken soup for her and put it beside, saying, "Have it."


    Charlotte wrinkled her nose and bent over the table. "I don''t feel like eating, and I''m feeling a bit


    unwell."


    Nelson asked, "What''s the matter?"


    Charlotte replied, "I''m just not sofortable."


    Helena chuckled and exined, "Char hasn''t been in good health since she was a child. It''s nothing


    unusual, don''t worry."


    Charlotte made no response and turned angry!


    Amanda cleared her throat, raised her ss of juice, and suggested, "Char, I know you can''t drink


    alcohol, so I will just toast with juice and apologize to you."


    Helena also stood up and said, "Char, it was all my fault earlier. Please forgive me, alright?"


    Charlotte didn''t want to argue with them, so she raised her ss and drank up the juice. She


    missed the subtle smiles on Amanda''s and Helena''s faces.


    Over the meal, Helena kept chatting with Nelson, and to Charlotte''s surprise, he actually responded


    to her. It was evident that she was interested in him. During the meal, Nelson excused himself to the


    restroom, and not long after, Helena also went to thedies'' room. When he was back, Charlotte


    noticed a card in Nelson''s shirt pocket. At first, she paid little attention to it, but as she finished a


    crab meatball, she realized that it was a room key card.


    When they were led to their table by the waiter, he also swiped this kind of card.


    Helena had handed Nelson a key card, and surprisingly, he epted it.


    Upon realizing this, Charlotte''s heart ached. It seemed that Mr. rk had indeed taken an interest in


    Helena. They had even arranged to sleep together tonight. But Mr. rk had never met Helena


    before. Could it be that he was attracted to her voice?


    The more Charlotte thought about it, the more ufortable she felt. She gulped down her ss of


    juice and shook her head. She said, "I... I need to use the restroom."


    Helena smiled and responded, "Okay."


    After Charlotte left, Amanda also excused herself. Helena cast a flirtatious nce at Nelson and


    said, "Mr. rk..."


    Nelson simply said, "Wait me in the room."


    "Alright," Helena batted her eyshes and said, "I''ll be waiting for you."


    After she left the private room, she sent a pre-written message. [Helena: She''s gone to the


    restroom.]


    ...


    Charlotte felt dizzy. She massaged her temples and felt something wasn''t right.


    How could a ss of juice make her feel so dizzy? Could there have been something else in the


    drink? It didn''t seem likely; if so, she would''ve been able to taste it.


    She leaned against the wall for a moment and right next to her was a waste bin. Inside, she spotted


    the empty can from the juice she had just consumed.


    Thebel read "Orange vored Beer."

    Charlotte knew what she drank earlier was no juice.


    She had never consumed alcohol and wasn''t sure what it felt like after drinking, but she had a


    hunch that she might be drunk right now.


    She headed to the restroom, sshed her face with cold water, and gradually regained her senses.


    She dried her face with a tissue and suddenly saw two men entering the restroom. She was


    startled. This was thedies'' restroom, so why were there two men here?
