Chapter 411: Reiner – Who She is
“I guess you’re right...” Reiner replied, clearly not looking forward to the dinner with the client.
“Good luck with your work and don’t worry about me,” I quickly said to reassure him.
“I’ll pick you up. Same place. Same time,” Reiner said a little sternly.
“Sure. I’ll wait for you,” I replied with a smile.

It was an ordinary day at work and our project was making decent progress. A big thanks to Charles and his advice. That reminded me that since running into Reiner that day, I haven’t seen much of Charles. I wondered if he would turn up to the bar sometime soon. Perhaps he was just busy or perhaps that encounter with Reiner created a bigger rift between Charles and I than I had anticipated.
A long sigh escaped my lips when I was forced to admit that I had to have a proper talk with Charles about everything. He didn’t exactly confess to me, but I guess after all that he’s done for me, I owed him a huge thank you along with some apologies. Honestly, I never knew that turning down a guy would be this difficult. That might be because I have never had the unfortunate opportunity to turn down such a great guy.
After leaving the office and a very worried-looking Reiner, I headed to the bar like usual. The traffic was surprisingly light, and I arrived a little ahead of schedule. That being said, I was once again the last person to turn up to work at the bar. Everyone was already there and preparing for the night’s opening. Kat waved to me with a big smile when she saw me walk into the bar.
“Welcome baby girl!” Kat called out loudly.
