Jack suddenly turned around, his bright and compelling eyes looking at me, as if filled with starlight, and unexpectedly asked such a question.

I was caught completely off guard, my mind blank for a moment.

I had never considered such a matter before.

Whether during university or after he returned to the country, I had always regarded him as a good

friend.

I struggled to free myself from a muddy marriage, and he also had someone he deeply loved for many years. Two people like us should be best suited to remain friends of the opposite sex. No one would need to worry about anything.

Under Jack’s gaze, I couldn’t help but feel a bit awkward. “J–Jack…”

“Alright.” Jack let out a muffled laugh and joked, “Just messing with you. How did you get so scared? You said I’m a good guy, looks like you were lying?”

“N–No, that’s not it.” I breathed a sigh of relief and awkwardly rubbed my nose, explaining, “I just thought that question came out of nowhere.”

It was too sudden.

After all, I hadn’t even finalized my divorce, so where would I have the mind to consider such questions? Besides, I had known for a long time that he has someone he likes, so I wouldn’t think along those lines.

He smiled. “So, were you sincerely praising me?”

“Of course.” I smiled back. “More sincere than I could ever be.”

“How about this?” He walked to the entrance hall, picked up a file bag he had placed on the cabinet earlier, and handed it to me. “After seeing this, you might want to praise me even more.”

“What’s this?”

“The gift that rightfully belongs to its owner,” he said and handed me the file bag.

I opened it curiously, took out the contents, and looked at the business license and some company information inside. I was a bit bewildered. “What is this?”

“Look at the company name.”

His beautiful fingers pointed to the company name.

When I saw the words “the Charlotte Jewelry,” I was suddenly stunned. I carefully looked through the other documents, flipping through them, and tears suddenly wetted the paper with a splash.

“Baby, how about naming the new fashion brand the Charlotte Jewelry? You’re our hope, Charlotte.” “Alright!”

“Yeah, with baby’s name in it, the Charlotte Jewelry will definitely become one of the top brands in Cheria in the future!”

Back then, my parents‘ careers were booming, and they decided to start another brand.

After thinking about it for many days, they decided on the Charlotte Jewelry.

It was officially launched on my seventh birthday.

However, after my parents passed away, the entire company was given away to pay off debts.

Some brands still had a little bit of fame, but… the Charlotte Jewelry had been gone for a long, long time.

I looked at Jack in bewilderment, my vision blurred, and choked up as I asked, “H–How did you retrieve this?”

“Nothing is impossible in this world.”

Jack reached out to wipe away my tears, his voice clear and smooth, “Do you like it?”

“Yes, I love it, I love it!” I nodded vigorously.

This was something that allowed me to rediscover what belonged to my parents. How could I not love it?

“That’s good. Actually, I retrieved it a while ago, but I’ve been hesitating, afraid it might affect your life plans. But when you turned down the MS Group the other day, I decided I had to give it to you.”

Jack’s lips curved into a smile. “Maybe it can give you a new direction.”

I held the documents tightly, almost without hesitation, and said, “Perhaps, it really can.”

‘I want… to make my parents‘ words come true, to make the Charlotte Jewelry truly one of the top brands in Cheria.‘

It was difficult, maybe even impossible, but I had to try.

Jack saw through me in an instant. “Thinking of relaunching the Charlotte Jewelry?”
