Back to My Worst Birthday and Starting Anew
Chapter 154 Such a Letdown
“You should’ve seen it. He rushed in, grabbed Emyr, and practically dragged him to you.”
Charmaine raised an eyebrow.
Her memory of last night was a bit hazy, and she didn’t recall anything about Milo.
Did you help me last night?”
+8 Pe
Milo straightened up, as if finally finding his confidence in front of her. “Sophie helped you out of the elevator, and when I noticed you were burning up, I realized something was wrong, so I took you from her. I never expected them to be so despicable!
‘I see”
Charmaine turned to him and genuinely thanked him. Thank you, Mr. Milo.
“You don’t need to be so formal with me.”
She replied. “I keep my personal and professional lives separate. You helped me a lot, so I naturally owe yo
one.
You really don’t have to-
“It’s okay if you can’t think of anything right now,” Charmaine said with a serious look. Just let me know when you do. I don’t want to owe you a favor.”
Milo, who wanted to refuse again, was left speechless.
She almost lost her innocence, it was such a big issue, yet she still kept such clear boundaries with him, making him feel even more embarrassed.
“Alright, if I think of something later, I’ll let you know.”
A wry smile crossed his face, but Charmaine, noticing his expression, seemed indifferent.
Him saving her once was one thing.
But that didn’t mean she felt any sympathy for him.
Milo quickly regained his composure and turned to Tad.
At that moment, a cold, vengeful look appeared on his face. “Where is Gordon? If he laid a hand on Charmaine, I won’t spare him!”
Tad didn’t answer. Instead, he glanced at Emyr
After Emyr nodded, Tad said, “Gordon caused a scene at the hotel last night and only left this morning.”
“You have a share in this hotel, right?”
Milo turned to Emyr, his eyes filled with anger. “I want the security footage from last night.”
“What are you planning to do?”
Milo clenched his teeth. I’m sending him straight to the police!”
“On what grounds?”
Before Milo could reply. Charmaine laughed.
“So what if there’s footage? What does it even show?
The footage would show how they used me in their deal, how they pushed me into Gordon’s room.”
Milo stared at her in disbelief. “Are you seriously just going to let this go?!”
“Who said I’m letting it go? Milo, when are you going to start using your brain?” Charmaine said, her sharp with sarcasm.
“Mr. Milo, those pieces of evidence don’t really carry much weight, Keon, who had remained silent un now, finally spoke up. His voice was smooth, but carried a heavy pressure. “If this matter is made publi will only lead to more gossip about Ms. Nelson. In the end, they’ll suffer no real consequences.”
Milo
instantly understood and felt a wave of frustration.
“Sorry, I was too impulsive.”
Emyr looked at Charmaine calmly, noticing her cold expression. “How do you want to handle this?” Charmaine met Emyr’s gaze and raised an eyebrow. “You want to help me?”
“I was a victim too last night. What do you think?”
Huh?
Charmaine’s face turned red, nearly spitting in his face.
Where did Satan get the audacity to call himself a victim?
He had no shame!
She had a plan in mind but didn’t want to show it just yet, so she lowered her head and said sweetly, “I’ll de as you say, Mr. Emyr.”
Emyr smirked. “In that case, we’ll handle it my way.”
He waved his hand, and Tad, understanding the signal, left the room.
“The issue’s resolved. We’ll be on our way.”
Emyr glanced at Charmaine, and she stepped forward, pushing his wheelchair out of the suite.
The others stood there, exchanging silent looks.
“No way, you’re leaving already? Aren’t we supposed to wait for what happens next?” Shawn complained.

Such a letdown.
Sinnova, however, didn’t seem bothered. “Don’t worry, you’ll hear about it soon. Emyr is not the keep a low profile.”
Bennett had been pacing around his house all day, feeling restless and agitated.
