“Charlotte Windt, what are you trying to do?” Zachary questioned her harshly.

Charlotte had been giving him the cold shoulder after he came home. First, she refused to join him and play with the kids in the garden. Then, she avoided him when he tried to talk to her. And now, she locked the door while taking a shower.

Charlotte felt rather guilty. Instead of answering him, she kept silent and proceeded to dry her hair at the dressing table.

Zachary was pissed by her response. He strode towards her and turned off the hairdryer. Zachary turned her around and looked her in the eyes. “Are you doing this just because I didn’t bring you along to visit Grandpa?” he asked.

“What did I do?” Charlotte spoke with a distant tone. “Whether or not to bring me along, it’s your choice. I’m in no position to make the decision for you.”

Right. I can take this opportunity to pick a bone with him, then I can move out for a few days.

 

“I didn’t bring you along because…”

Charlotte interrupted him before he could explain himself. “Whatever. It didn’t really matter to me. Your grandpa doesn’t like me anyway. It’d be better if we don’t see each other.”

 

Zachary was infuriated by her attitude. He couldn’t help but raise his volume. “What’s with this attitude? I’m trying to communicate with you. Why are you getting all worked up?”
