Cold Husband Burning Regret: The Divorce He Couldn't Handle novel Chapter 661

Charlotte agreed.

After saying goodbye to Dean Chase, she, Lilith, and Hiram walked to the parking lot. She stopped and turned to Lilith. "How is your aunt doing?"

Lilith paused, then looked down. "Still the same. No improvement. The doctors say it's unlikely she'll ever wake up."

Seeing Charlotte's silence, Lilith added, "And don't worry about anything else. My family doesn't blame you for what happened. Don't listen to Ilse's nonsense; she just wants to see the Howard family in chaos. Oh, and be careful of Genevieve, too."

Just a few days later, Charlotte did indeed run into Genevieve. It was at the same restaurant where she was having dinner with Dean Chase.

The dinner with the dean also included two of her former colleagues from neurosurgery. They were very interested in the new Alzheimer's drug she was developing, and the conversation was lively.

On her way to the restroom during a break, she came face-to-face with Genevieve.

When their eyes met, Genevieve's expression visibly stiffened, her gaze instantly turning hostile. "I thought you'd never have the nerve to show your face in the Capital again."

Charlotte looked down and smiled faintly. "I didn't do anything wrong. Why shouldn't I have the face to come back?"

Genevieve stepped closer. The heavy rose scent of her perfume was overwhelming, and Charlotte, feeling a wave of nausea from her pregnancy, instinctively recoiled.
