Chapter 17 Grievance
Chapter 17 Grievance
"I'm sorry. I forgot it was your birthday. I wish you a happy birthday in advance. I can't go there today
because I have something I need to do."
When Charles said this, he did not lift his head. It was not until he had sorted out the documents that
he found Eliza still standing by.
"I know that you have suffered a lot during this time together, so I want to apologize to, at least we can
have a good ending."
In the end, Eliza's voice became smaller, and her eyes filled with tears.
The appearance of grievance seemed to be that she had received great injustice here. Charles had not
hardened his heart after all.
It was not until Eliza left with the satisfaction that Brian opened his mouth at the other two guys'
instigation.
"Charles, you need to think, as soon as you enter the office today, I feel that something is wrong. Do
you still believe her like that?"
Brian was muttering to himself, and Charles took a cigarette from his pocket, silently listening.
Even cycle several people can see there was a problem, how could he not see it.
Only his heart was not so hard, and couldn't find a suitable reason to refuse Eliza, what's more, this
woman was his first love.
He was just a young man in his early twenties. Although he had experienced so much in recent days,
he was still immature. The appearance of Eliza just now was something he had never seen before.
Perhaps she wanted to get together and have a good ending.
Helplessly sighed, Charles said, "It's okay. It's a Hongmen banquet at most, which couldn't kill me. I'll
go and see it and come back."
Think of it as a not-so-ugly end to his first love.
After hearing what he said, Brian did not persuade him further. Fortunately, he bought a car, so he
didn't refuse when Brian said he would send him there, but when the other two also said they would go
with Charles, he refused.
This was his trouble, so it was no need to keep all roommates awake. Anyway, they needed to go to
work tomorrow.
And he also knew what they were thinking--they just worried about what happened last time. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
However, this time, in front of more than half of the company's colleagues, Blaze had to restrain himself
from making any trouble. Otherwise, Blaze would not be in trouble alone.
Brian parked the car at the gate of the saint DE club, and he still looked at Charles with an uneasy
expression, just about to follow Charles behind his ass.
"All right, no big deal. I'll go in and sit down for a while. Then I'll come out and have fun when we buy
some beer."
With that, Charles went in without looking back, fearing that Brian would do other things.
High-end clubs were different. Once inside, they were all slender and wrapped in black silk. In front of
Charles, they were constantly swaying. If Charles had not seen Josie, he was afraid he would be
fascinated by what was in front of them.
He just stopped a waiter, asked about the private room, and walked towards the elevator.
He might be the last person to arrive. At the moment, the large private room was already full of people,
and all dressed up carefully. The smell of all kinds of famous brand perfume rushed into Charles's
nasal cavity at the moment of opening the door.
He rubbed his nose helplessly, lift the foot, and went in.
"Charles, there you are!"
Eliza's voice came from the other side. Charles looked at her and saw her lying on Blaze, causing
Charles's eyes a pain.
"Who is this?" A short-haired girl in a black dress beside Eliza glanced at Charles and looked at Eliza.
"Her ex-boyfriend, don't you know?"
Before Eliza could speak, one of Blaze's brothers could not wait to speak.
The girl who had just asked this question mumbled with a look of eating excrement.
"It's so creative."
"All right, we have the rules here. For a birthday party, you have to give a present when you enter the
door. I don't know what you, an ex-boyfriend of Eliza, have prepared for her. Take it out and let
everyone have a look!"
The girl who was talking now was not as annoying as the previous one. This was a relief to Eliza and
Charles.
Charles casually put a crystal bracelet on the table, and at that time, the whole room quieted down.
"Poof ..." Someone laughed first, immediately the whole box laughed.
"Just send a fake crystal worth dozens of RMB to our Eliza?"
"At least he is Eliza's an ex-boyfriend, sending Eliza such a crap sounds cheap."
All kinds of voices came out, and Charles frowned impatiently.
This bracelet was an accessory when they bought watches for Brian. It seemed to be called Falco.
At that time, the clerk also said that it might be impossible to buy the bracelet even if they had money.
At that time, he wanted to send it to Josie. Who knew it was just in time for Eliza's birthday party, so he
simply gave it to her and bought another one for Josie later.
Charles didn't think these people would despise this thing, but he looked at the gifts on the table
nearby--most of them were also about 1,000 RMB, and he didn't see how fancy they were.
Altogether, it was estimated that these gifts were not as expensive as the watch he sent to Brian.
"Charles, I didn't invite you to humiliate me."
Eliza held her head high, and her face covered with coldness as if she hadn't invited him today.
No one noticed that a girl with an unkempt pink skirt picked up the bracelet on the table and said
sarcastically.
"Yo, look at this. It still says "Falco." It's a copy of a famous brand."
"So that is why it looks so familiar? My mother used to have the same one, but she said it was not a
high-end product and gave my chihuahua a collar."
"This is good as a collar, ha-ha--"
A group of people instantly pulled the topic to the bracelet again. Eliza finally went over and took the
thing in her hand. Without looking at it, she released her hand and the crystal burst on the ground.
Then she took the napkin Blaze handed him, wiped her hands, and sat down on the table.
"The dishes were almost ready. Everybody sit down."
After waiting for everyone to sit down and have a drink together, they began to eat food. Only Charles
was still standing because there were no extra stools.
"Hey, I thought you were gone!"
Eliza suddenly turned back, as if she saw Charles still standing just now.
Looking at such an affected Eliza, Charles suddenly understood the real reason why he broke up. He
was not willing to accept the reality before. After a long time, he thought that Eliza would have some
feelings with him, so he would believe what she said in the company.
He didn't expect this was her real purpose.
"Excuse me. I was ready to leave as soon as I delivered something."
This was far-fetched.
"Wait."
Listening to Eliza's voice, Charles stopped again, looked back slightly, and looked at her.
"After today, you didn't tell anyone that I am your ex-girlfriend, and you should recognize yourself."
Charles closed his eyes and had to push hard to squeeze back the extra water in his eyes.
Finally, he nodded and left the room."
