Everyone turned toward the source of the voice, stunned to see Arthur back in the private room. His jacket, casually slung over his arm earlier, was now loosely held in one hand. The air around him radiated menace, an unmistakable storm brewing 

beneath his calm exterior. 

His lips parted, and his low, magnetic voice cut through the tension. “I changed my mind. I feel like playing, after all.” His sharp gaze swept across the room, making everyone’s blood run cold. “What? You all planning to stay and watch?” 

The men, already wary of Arthur, sobered up immediately. They scrambled to leave, not forgetting to shut the door behind them thoughtfully. Silence fell over the room. 

Charlotte never expected him to come back. Watching his tall frame approach, she rose from the couch instinctively, her body tensing with caution. Arthur’s eyes locked onto hers. He thought, “That looks so familiar. Charlotte always looks at me like that, too. How could two different people share the same gaze?” 

Arthur’s curiosity burned stronger now. He thought again, “What is hiding beneath her mask? Would it surprise or shock me?” He stepped closer, each stride deliberate and unyielding. His towering presence bore down on her like a tidal wave,

Her mind was beginning to fog again, and a dull ache had started gnawing at her stomach. That bottle of vodka she’d downed earlier was no joke. Charlotte thought, “I must find Evie. If I don’t leave soon, my disguise will crumble completely -and when that happens, everything will fall apart.”

Arthur stopped a few steps away, the light above casting shadows over his chiseled features. His deep–set eyes glimmered with amusement as he looked at her almost playfully. “Ms. Aroma, you’ve provoked me time and time again, yet here I am, saving you. Wouldn’t you say I’m quite the saint?” 

Charlotte thought, “Is this guy for real? Complimenting himself? And pushing me to agree with him?” 

Still, facts were facts. “Mr. Harrison, this bottle of fragrance might temporarily ease your symptoms,” she said, her tone measured despite the chaos swirling in her mind. “And thank you for saving me just now.” 

Summoning what little composure she had left, Charlotte retrieved a small bottle from her bag and placed it on the table, sliding it toward him. 

“If you need more in the future, I’ll give you a discount.” She hesitated, then added, “The materials are quite rare, and I just want to make a little money. I hope you’ll understand.” 

Arthur leaned forward, picking up the tiny bottle. About the size of a perfume vial, its contents were clear and shimmered faintly under the light. His fingers turned it over, examining it with casual curiosity. “It will work after I spray it?” he asked.

“Yes.” Charlotte nodded. “You saw how effective it was at Sir Caldwell’s birthday party, didn’t you? I believe it’ll help.”
