The guard at the door was easy to convince. She made up a simple excuse about having a stomachache or
needing to see a doctor.
The police still sent someone to follow her to the building entrance. When they arrived, the officer blocked her
path. "Ms. Garnett, please go back. Without approval, you can't see anyone except your doctor."
"Not even my husband? My stomach hurts terribly. | need to see my husband to feel at ease," she pleaded.
But the officer wouldn't budge. "Ms. Garnett, please return!"
Just then, the officer received a phone call. After listening for a few moments, the officer stepped aside.
Charlotte walked in confidently, wearing sunglasses with her head held high.
The receptionist greeted her politely, "Miss, who are you here to see? Do you have an appointment?"
Charlotte removed her sunglasses, frowning slightly with an annoyed tone, "I'm here to see your CEO, James
Chancer. Do | really need an appointment?"
The receptionist was new and didn't recognize Charlotte. She smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, miss, but
everyone needs an appointment. Or you could call the person you're meeting and ask them to cget you."
Clearly, the receptionist didn't believe Charlotte's claim and thought she was just putting on airs.
Charlotte was well-practiced at acting and could easily tell what the young woman was thinking.
She let out a scornful laugh with a hint of anger in her voice, "Young lady, being professional is good, but I'm
your CEO's wife. If you don't believe me, call and confirm it yourself."

Seeing Charlotte's unwavering confidence, the receptionist blinked a few times before responding in the same
tone, "Miss, please don't misunderstand. | meant nothing by it. Please wait while I call to confirm."
Charlotte naturally wouldn't argue with a receptionist in public.
Since becoming pregnant, her temper had becharder to control, but fortunately, she had worn her fragile
mask for so long that it had becsecond nature.
Shortly after, the receptionist nodded and put down the phone.
Her attitude becmuch more respectful, her voice gentler, "Ma'am, I've confirmed with Mr. Chancer's
secretary. I'm very sorry for wasting your time."
Charlotte smiled warmly, reassuring her, "It's fine, | understand. I'll mention to your CEO that you deserve a
raise."
The young receptionist couldn't help but get excited at this. "Thank you, ma'am! You're beautiful and kind-
hearted. Mr. Chancer has excellent taste."
Charlotte was delighted by the compliments, and her previously anxious heart grew calmer.
