Cold Husband Burning Regret: The Divorce He Couldn't Handle novel Chapter 516

Lilith walked over to Charlotte with the remaining coffee and handed it to her. "This is for you."

Charlotte took it with a smile. "Don't tell me you're just here on vacation again?"

Lilith winced, avoiding her gaze with an awkward laugh. "So, you know about my cousin…"

Charlotte nodded, not holding it against her. "I figured it out a while ago."

Lilith just smiled without saying anything.

"So what about this time? Are you just here in Eldermere City to join the spectacle?"

At that, Lilith dropped her playful expression and became serious. "Of course not. I'm here to connect you with someone important!"

"Connect us?"

"That's right," Lilith said with a smug look. "You guys need investors, right? Well, I know a major player. If she likes your project, you're golden."

Seeing Charlotte frown, Lilith quickly explained, "Don't worry, it's not my cousin. This person is so influential in the capital that even my family, the Sutherlands—heck, even my uncle and Grandma Rosemary—have to show her respect."

"That powerful?" Charlotte was hesitant. She wracked her brain, but there were very few people in the capital who could command that kind of deference from Rosemary.

Before she could respond, Lilith thought of something else and added with a pout, "Her identity is a bit sensitive, so she can't be publicly involved in the business world, but she's a major patron of the arts, medicine, and various charities. I'm just making the introduction. It's up to you guys to convince her to back your project."

Charlotte's brow furrowed slightly. "The fact that you're willing to help is more than enough. We'll handle the rest."

Although Tobias had been hit on the head, he was lucky to have only a mild concussion and woke up shortly after being brought to the hospital.
