Eve Thompson raised an eyebrow when she heard this.
She had always known what Faith Williams was worried about and found it quite amusing that this guy never recognized her. So, jokingly, she said, "I came, of course, to spend New Year's Eve with Mr. Charlie, to ring in the new year!"
Faith Williams: ...
Faith Williams looked at Eve Thompson and sighed silently.
It was as she had thought.
Her purpose for being here was Mr. Charlie, but unfortunately...
Remembering that pitiful figure, Faith Williams' perception of Eve Thompson suddenly improved; she even found herself not disliking her as much as before.
People always sympathize with the underdog.
At this moment, overwhelmed by sympathy, Faith Williams decided... to prevent her from going upstairs.
She said, "Mr. Charlie has a very full schedule tonight, so he might not have time. You should just go back."
A very full schedule?
Eve Thompson raised an eyebrow.
Indeed, he has been extremely busy.
