Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 459

Charlie asked directly, "Did Crystal say something to you?"

Emily lowered her head and didn't speak.

Charlie paused briefly, instructing the driver to turn around. He then addressed Emily, "I'll arrive at your place in approximately ten minutes. Come downstairs, and we can have a face-to-face conversation."

With that, he ended the call.

Emily stared at her phone, a wave of regret washing over her. She realized that her impulsive decision to call had potentially worsened the situation instead of resolving it.

A few minutes later, she went out the door, not alerting Crystal, and quietly went downstairs alone.

She waited downstairs for a minute when Charlie's car pulled up in front of her. The window rolled down and Charlie sat in the back, looking at Emily and saying, "Get in!"

Emily walked around to the other side and got in the car.

Charlie's complexion turned pale as he questioned, "What did Crystal say to you?"

Emily shook her head and responded, "It's not her fault. It was our mistake for using your wine without asking for permission."

Charlie sneered, "Did she claim that I look down on her and despise you all, which is why I discarded the wine?"

Feeling uneasy, Emily replied, "Regardless, it was our fault. I'm willing to compensate for it."

Charlie's expression grew darker, and he stated, "Emily, we've known each other for quite some time now. Don't you understand the kind of person I am? Do you truly think I care about a bottle of wine?"
