Chapter 160 Retaliation
He was genuinely worried about Charmaine’s reaction..
Would she lash out at him?
Or would she throw all those clothes out?
He couldn’t shake the image of her cold, indifferent attitude toward him…
It was Milo’s first time giving someone a gift, and he could feel the anxious tension in his chest.
After about half an hour, a message finally popped up on his phone.
He quickly sat up and opened it, only to see it was a bank notification.
A wave of disappointment hit him as he casually glanced at the message, but then his eyes widened in
shock.
Three million?!
What did Emyr mean by this?!
Milo gritted his teeth in anger, but another message quickly came through.
Emyr typed, “My woman doesn’t need your concern, Mr. Milo.”
What the!
Milo was furious.
He was going to be Emyr’s future brother–in–law, and just last night, he had gone to the top floor to ask for his help with Charmaine..
D*mmit, what an ungrateful b*stard! You can’t help someone like this!
After the servants at the small villa received the clothes, they all came over to thank Charmaine.
One of the younger maids, who was particularly familiar with Charmaine, even gave her hand a playful wink. “To thank Ms. Nelson for the beautiful clothes. We’ve prepared a little something for you in return.”
“There’s really no need.”
“Hehe, it’s already all set up. When you get some rest, you’ll see!”
Charmaine didn’t quite get it at first.
But when she returned to the master bedroom that evening and saw the deep blue bedding with rose petals arranged in a big heart shape, she was horrified.
This isn’t a return gift!
This is pure retaliation!

Chapter 160 Retaliation
Hearing voices in the corridor, Charmaine almost jumped out of her skin.
In a panic, she rushed to clean up the rose petals from the bed.
But no matter how hard she searched, she couldn’t find a trash bin!
The sound of the wheelchair’s mechanical whirring seemed to come from just behind the door, so Charmaine quickly wrapped the rose petals in clothes and rushed toward the bathroom.
With a loud slam, she locked the bathroom door.
As Emyr pushed open the bedroom door, he heard the noise. A flash of anger flickered in his eyes, but when he noticed the small backpack on the cabinet, his expression softened.
He almost forgot that Charmaine had moved in.
He stood in front of the bathroom door, where the sound of running water could be heard. “Charmaine?”
“Ah, I’m just washing up. Wait a minute.”
Emyr returned to the bedroom, only to find the bedding all wrinkled, as if someone had rolled around in it.
He couldn’t help but glance toward the bathroom.
She acted like she didn’t care, but when I wasn’t around, she couldn’t resist rolling around on my bed.
Is she that happy!
His well–shaped lips curved into a confident, satisfied smile. In an unusually good mood, he decided to tidy up the bed himself.
As he lifted the pillow, two items unexpectedly slid out.
Meanwhile, in the bathroom, Charmaine sacrificed one of her old clothes, using it to wrap up the rose petals and stuff them into the trash can.
Satan would probably laugh at her if he saw it.
He might even think she prepared it herself!
Charmaine shook her head, stripped off her clothes, and soaked in the bathtub.
She had to admit, that Satan’s bathroom was more luxurious than her little room’s, and the massage function was incredible.
After soaking for a while, Charmaine finally got up to get dressed and head out.
When she reached for the clothes on the hanger, her hand unexpectedly found a silky, delicate fabric.
It was a delicate, near–transparent slip dress, so sheer it felt almost weightless.
Charmaine froze, her whole body going stiff. “How many gifts are there?”
After hesitating for a while, Charmaine finally walked out, wrapped in a man’s bathrobe that reached all the way to her ankles.

Emyr glanced up at her, his eyes deepening.
His voice came out a bit hoarse. Done?”

“Yeah, I’ll get you a new bathrobe.” Charmaine, feeling a little awkward, quickly looked away from him.
Emyr’s penetrating gaze stayed on her until he eventually headed into the bathroom on his own.
When he came out, Charmaine had already changed into her simple pajamas, just a basic top and pants.
Emyr got into bed from the other side without a word.
His movements were so natural that Charmaine didn’t feel the need to act awkward. She lay down and covered herself with the blanket.
But
With someone else in the bed, she couldn’t sleep, tossing and turning.
