The dumbstruck Lucy pointed at Ben and said, “E-Err... Mr. Ben, your nose...”
Sharon giggled and teased, “Hahaha! Ben, you have never behaved as such before! I guess you're a man after all, huh?”
Ben panicked and covered his nose while turning around to touch up on his appearance. He was grateful Zachary wasn't around.
Otherwise, he would be doomed. Perhaps Zachary would scoop his eyes out of his sockets for desecrating Charlotte.
Meanwhile, Charlotte couldn't be bothered by Ben's response at all. She glanced around and noticed Zachary wasn't around.
“Where's Zachary?” Sharon queried with a smile.
“Mr. Nacht has headed over the venue in advance. He has sent me to pick you guys up.” Ben looked elsewhere while replying.
“You should take Charlotte and her party with you. I'll head over with my own car.” Sharon beamed her instruction along with a smirk that indicated her plan to matchmake the duo.
“E-Er—”
Sharon had boarded her car and departed before Ben could stop her.
As a result, Ben invited Charlotte and Lucy to board the Rolls-Royce Phantom that was parked nearby.
After they boarded the car, Ben took a seat in the front passenger seat and avoided looking in the direction of Charlotte.
Lucy was on pins and needles due to the awkward situation and the things that might be in store for Charlotte.
Charlotte was relatively calm, enjoying the scene as they were on their way to the venue—she couldn't wait for Sharon to achieve her goal, so she could get Zachary to leave her as soon as possible.
She could then proceed to leave Divine Corporation and start a new life in another city with Mrs. Berry and her children by her side.
Since she had the fortune that was left behind by her late father, she could easily live a carefree life with her children for the rest of their lives.
Charlotte had everything sorted out in her mind, including a flawless plan to sustain their lifestyles. She would start a bakery with Mrs. Berry and allow her children to savor the cakes that were prepared because they were huge fans of cakes.
As a family of five, they would spend the rest of their life, living a blissful and simple life by one another's side.
While Charlotte's thoughts wandered everywhere, exploring the countless possibilities after leaving Zachary, they finally reached the banquet hall of Ashenville Garden.
