Cold Husband Burning Regret: The Divorce He Couldn't Handle novel Chapter 484

"Is that a friend of yours?" Sean asked.

Charlotte smiled. "She's… Miss Sutherland."

"Which Sutherlands?"

"The Crestmont Sutherlands…"

At the mention of the name, Sean's eyes widened in understanding. "Ah, I see."

Lilith walked in and gave Sean a polite nod. "Hello, sir. I'm Lilith!"

Sean found himself instantly charmed by the cheerful girl. "Have you eaten? Please, join us."

"Oh, really? Can I?" Lilith didn't need to be told twice and immediately took a seat.

Sean asked the housekeeper to set another place. Lilith hadn't eaten dinner, and she wasn't about to turn down a free meal.

"It's Christmas. I bet there are a lot of young people out and about," Sean said, looking at Charlotte. "After dinner, you should go out with your friend."

Lilith looked up in agreement. "On my way here, the streets were packed, especially near the shopping district. It's so lively!" She then turned to Charlotte. "Charlotte, this is my first time celebrating Christmas away from home! Please come with me?"

She looked like a pleading kitten.

Charlotte hesitated for a second before giving in. "Alright."

…

At eight o'clock, the riverfront was bustling with activity. The entire street was decked out in Christmas decorations, and the crowd was a mix of locals and tourists.

Lilith held Charlotte's hand, pulling her through the crowd toward a specific destination.

"Charlotte!" Lilith shouted, chasing after her.

"Charlotte… you… you run so fast," Lilith said, catching up to her and bending over to catch her breath.

Charlotte looked down at the scarf. There was no tag, no brand, and the knitting was uneven—clearly the work of a beginner.

Who would give away a handmade scarf as a free gift?

"Charlotte?" Lilith’s voice pulled her back to the present. She let out a soft, self-deprecating laugh.

*It doesn't matter,* she thought. *I'll keep it as a memento.*

Meanwhile, Judd was having a drink at Marge Hale's bar. After serving the customers outside, Marge returned to the bar. "It's Christmas. I'm surprised that Gentry character didn't drag you out."
