Charlotte Thompson was originally standing by the counter, waiting patiently.
But after a long time, Annie Anne still hadn't returned, leaving Charlotte somewhat absent-minded as she glanced in the direction Annie had left.
As a result, while lost in thought, Charlotte accidentally cut her fingertip on the metal edge of the cake box. Staring at the bead of blood swelling up, she felt an inexplicable sense of unease.
It wasn't until the nearby waiter handed her a band-aid that Charlotte was pulled from her thoughts.
"Why is Annie taking so long…"
Charlotte murmured softly, asking the waiter beside her to keep an eye on the cake, then immediately strode towards the bathroom.
From afar, Charlotte spotted Annie Anne's silhouette, but standing next to her was someone unexpected to Charlotte.
Why was Leon Battleson in a place like this?
Seeing Leon extend his hand towards Annie, Charlotte's heart rang with alarm bells. She quickly stepped forward, pulling Annie back to her side.
