Grace had given clear instructions carlier: anyone wearing at golden butterfly mask was to be immediately let
through. The receptionist spotted Charlotte and rushed to call the executive elevator. “Ms. Aroma, | presume? Mr.
Harrison is waiting for you,” the receptionist greeted with a polite smile.
Charlotte gave a subtle nod, stepping into the elevator. She lowered her eyes, desperately trying to compose
herself. Diana cut in. “Drop the attitude. It’s all about business.”
“I know.” The whole situation was basically her fault-she couldn't help but mockingly taunt Arthur tand

Arthur spoke, “I can agree to your previous proposal, but I'm not comfortable without knowing your true
identity.”
Charlotte thought, “Here it comes-finally. Today, I'd put his mind at ease. No, make that put his suspicions to

A look of momentary dejection crossed Charlotte's eyes. “As your request, I'll naturally comply. Just be
prepared.” She took a deep breath and removed her mask. A face with striking contrasts appeared before

Arthur stared at her thoughtfully. His previous suspicions now completely vanished. He thought, “She’s just
