Charlotte felt uneasy about Sherlyn’s words; she could not, however, deny that anyone would naturally be worried about their future daughter-in-law meeting an ex-husband alone at a hotel.

Instead of voicing her discomfort, she set down her cutlery and declared, “I’m going to see Danrique’s kids. Please enjoy your dinner.”

“All right,” Sherlyn acknowledged briefly before turning back to her meal.

Louis placed his cutlery on the table and offered, “I’ll accompany you, Charlotte.”

She dismissed his offer coolly. “That won’t be necessary; you should stay here with your parents. I want to be alone for a while.”

Charlotte scuttled off soon after.

 

Louis watched her departing figure with a forlorn expression. His efforts to grow closer to her were always met with a frosty demeanor.
