At night at Scarlet Pinnacle Manor, everyone except Vera had already retreated. After Charlie arrived by car, he passed through the courtyard directly and ascended the stone steps.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Vera was already there. Upon seeing Charlie, she greeted him with an expression of joy and shyness, “Young Master…”
At that moment, Vera was dressed in a white dress, and her long hair, which fell down her shoulders, still seemed a little damp. The adjacent hot spring pool was still filled with many flower petals floating on the surface, giving the entire courtyard a faint floral fragrance.
Charlie subconsciously guessed that Vera had just finished bathing, so he refrained from looking at the hot spring pool and focused on her instead. He said with a hint of nervousness, “Miss Lavor, I apologize for disturbing you so late at night. Besides the matter I promised the three elderly gentlemen earlier, I also have some things that I need you to help me solve.”
Vera bowed slightly at Charlie as she smiled sweetly. Her alluring beauty made people feel intoxicated and fascinated. She then parted her red lips slightly and said softly, “Young Master, you don’t need to be so polite with me. It’s my greatest honor to be able to share your worries. Please speak up if you have any questions, and I will try my best to answer your questions.”
After saying that, Vera gracefully gestured toward the direction of her room and said softly, “Young Master, please come in, and let's talk inside.”
Charlie nodded and followed Vera into her room. By this time, Vera had already prepared tea in the living room on the first floor. The aroma of the special tea filled the entire room, making people feel refreshed.
Vera led Charlie to a small tea table and said, “Young Master, please have a seat. I'll pour you some tea. Feel free to ask me anything you want to know.”
Charlie nodded and followed suit. The two then sat facing each other across the tea table. Vera poured a cup of tea for Charlie and said, “Young Master, please try this tea.”
