Everyone turned toward the voice, only to see a proud and coldly elegant woman approaching gracefully.
She held a wine glass in her hand, draped in an impeccably tailored gown. She exuded pride and elegance, capturing the attention of the men around her. The men couldn't help but steal a few extra glances at her.
Jack's gaze naturally landed on this woman of regality and authority, and he was surprised by how familiar she was. She was the woman with the afro he had interacted with in Perthter City, Charlotte Grant.
Back then, Charlotte had an afro, and she had ventured through the game Skybound Wars with Zane and her brother, only to be crushed by Jack in an overwhelming defeat.
Jack never expected to bump into her here.
As fate would have it, paths would always cross in unexpected places. Bumping into Charlotte in Alnewgo was like meeting an old friend in a foreign land.
On the other hand, Feena's eyebrows furrowed, and she recognized Charlotte as familiar. However, Charlotte's hairdo was different from the woman's, so Feena couldn't immediately recognize her.
Ryan, Thomas, Mia, and the rest didn't know Charlotte, so they stared at her, dumbfounded.
However, it was enough that Jonathan recognized Charlotte.
Just moments ago, Jonathan maintained an air of superiority, looking down on everything and everyone. Yet, when he laid eyes on Charlotte, his expression shifted. Then, a bright and saccharine smile appeared on his initially cold and aloof face.
He enthusiastically approached her and said, "Char, I didn't expect to see you here! Why didn't you let me know you were coming? I was just about to look for you too!
"Is your brother, Neil, here too? Let me bring you and your brother out when I find the time. Coincidentally, my father is also looking for a time to visit your father."
No matter how hard Jonathan tried to remain calm, a hint of ingratiation remained between his brows.
