Cold Husband Burning Regret: The Divorce He Couldn't Handle novel Chapter 695

At the end of the month, Genevieve Howard and Jonathan Pembroke's engagement banquet was set for early January, right after New Year's.

These past few days, Charlotte had been keeping in touch with her father and brother. She had already missed so many years of family reunions, and this New Year's Eve, she couldn't be by their side again. She felt a deep sense of regret and guilt.

She secretly thought to herself that once this period passed, she would do everything she could to spend quality time with her family.

When Charlotte came downstairs, Hiram was in the kitchen intently watching a tutorial and making hand-pulled noodles, looking very serious.

He didn't even notice her approaching.

"Vera, do you think these noodles will turn out okay? Look, I rolled them like this..."

"Roll them a bit more, they're a little thick."

Charlotte suddenly appeared behind Hiram, poking her head out to look at the screen.

Vera on the screen was guiding him while applying a face mask, and when Charlotte appeared in the frame, she was so startled her mask fell off, "Charlotte!"

Hiram was also startled by the figure on the screen, nearly dropping his phone. He spun around, "Lottie, why are you so quiet!"

Charlotte took his phone, "You two, sneaking around on a video call behind my back, is that necessary?" She looked at the person who had disappeared from the screen, "Vera!"

Vera peeked half her head back into the frame, laughing awkwardly, "Hiram just wanted to learn how to make hand-pulled noodles, and I was just teaching him. He wanted to make them for you, it was supposed to be a surprise."

Charlotte glanced at Hiram, who was scratching his head sheepishly, then sighed helplessly, "Rolling noodles like you're sneaking around. I thought you were secretly dating someone and didn't want me to know."

"Lottie, don't talk nonsense..." Hiram blushed deeply, lowering his voice, "I'm not."

Vera said, "How could that be? If Hiram were dating someone, he'd have to tell you, you're just overthinking!"
