Chapter 361
Was Charlotte going out on a date?
The little white rabbit who had been pretending to be innocent in front of him… was actually a little wildcat?
Ethan had been in a low mood for days.
Repeatedly thwarted by Khloe, now even Clarice was giving him the cold shoulder. Important tasks were no longer entrusted to him, and at the company, he had almost become a nominal vice president, a figurehead in all but name.
On top of that, the things Khloe had told him still lingered in his mind, and over the past few days, he had secretly been investigating his parents’ past. But too much time had passed, and the leftover official clues were practically useless.

Seeing Charlotte enter a private business suite, Ethan could reasonably assume she was here on business.
He recalled passing the project department that morning and overhearing her mention a dinner tonight with a certain government department manager-likely follow-up business for the pharmaceutical project.
But wasn’t Khloe known for never letting her female subordinates attend these kinds of dinners? Why was Charlotte here alone?
Ethan pulled out his phone and made a call.

his assistant.
“Leonard? Just the three of us today?” Charlotte’s eyelid twitched.
