Chapter 383: It's Really a Calamitous Affinity

A hint of displeasure flashed across Justin Battleson's face as he watched Charlotte Thompson pick up the wine glass in front of her and take a deliberate sip.

The red wine accentuated the seductive appeal of her red lips.

Justin couldn't help but chuckle; he instinctively leaned in closer to Charlotte, lowering his voice.

"Charlotte, we truly are fated."

Charlotte seemed resistant to Justin's sudden intimacy. On hearing his words, she couldn't help but chuckle.

"That's some dreadful fate."

Stung by her retort, Justin's face darkened. He picked up his own glass of red wine and drained it in one gulp.

"Miss Thompson." Adam Ross slightly leaned in, his slender fingers lifting the stemmed glass, gesturing towards Charlotte across the table.

Adam deliberately ignored the icy stare of Justin, his face carrying a faint smile, looking quite warm and friendly.

Charlotte didn't refuse, she curved her lips slightly and nodded at him.
