It was the next day as it showed a cafe where Anne and her friends were hanging out and drinking coffee together as Carrie, Benjamin, Jack, and Caitlin were having a conversation about their favourite movies.

The group noticed that Anne hadn't said anything to them as They looked at her and noticed she was smiling and chatting with someone in her phone.

The group could already guess who she was chatting with, They looked at each other before Caitlin smiled and spoke to Anne.

Caitlin: Texting your favourite cat?

Anne: *Closes her phone* No, I'm not.

Carrie: Hahaha! Clearly, you were.

Jack: *Smiles* And usually you never smile when you're texting someone.

Benjamin: We all caught you in the act, Anne.

She rolled her eyes and began drinking her coffee as the friends laughed at her before Caitlin said something.

Caitlin: You're more cute than you were before, Anne.

Anne: Who said that?

Carrie: We are being honest since you and Charlie met up again. You look more happy, to be honest.

Anne just had a small smile on her face before she received a message and began texting Charlie as they had a smile on their face.

Benjamin: We should set up a surprise wedding for them.

Jack: Anne is gonna kill us if we do that.

Carrie: Oh, don't worry, It's not like she's gonna find out.

Anne: I can hear you all.

Anne just stared at them as they shared a small laugh together. Soon, they continued talking about work, their interests, and other topics.

An hour passed as Anne looked at the time and needed to leave right now. They shared a goodbye as Winters left the cafe while the others were smiling at her.

Caitlin: Honestly, I like seeing her like this.

Carrie: If she's happy, I'm happy as well. Since Joker's death, She wasn't exactly the same.

Jack: True, but she didn't regret anything as well.

Benjamin: You can say anything about Charlie, but I really think he truly cares about her.

They all had a smile on their faces as they continued talking to each other before leaving the cafe.

Meanwhile, Anne decided to visit Charlie at his mansion as Anne was driving her way towards the mansion, She was also thinking about him as she continued driving with a smile on her face.

Their dates have been becoming more fun, and She felt like their bond was even stronger. Her thoughts were interrupted when she reached the mansion as Anne got out of the car.

Anne walked towards the mansion and was fixing her hair before she rang the doorbell and waited.

Though, there was no answer. Anne noticed the door was open as she just decided to open it and get inside.

Anne: *Mutters to herself* Well, you sneak into my Manor, Now I'm gonna sneak inside your mansion.

Winters was looking for Charlie as she noticed the mansion was silent, Anne continued walking around until she heard a whistle and turned around to see Charlie coming out of his room.

Charlie: You also like to sneak around, Huh?

Anne: It's fair since you got inside my manor.

Charlie had a smile on his face and jumped down the stairs as Anne was looking at him.

Charlie: You like what you see?

Anne: *Smirks* Maybe.

She was staring at him as Charlie had a smile on his face and fixed his long hair before walking towards Anne.

Charlie: So, what made you come here?

Anne: I thought you were free so I decided to visit you.

Charlie: Oh, I see.

Anne: What were you up to, anyway?

Charlie: I was working out at the underground gym, and now I just took a fresh shower.

Anne: Nice, aren't you gonna go work?

Charlie: Not until an hour, Why?

Anne: Just wondering.

Charlie was looking at her before he pulled her close as Anne just smiled at him as Mercer began caressing her hair.

Anne: First, put a shirt on.

Charlie: I thought you liked it without it.

Anne: I like both, and I know you like the same from me.

They both smiled at each other as Charlie began kissing her neck, Anne was holding his hand tightly before she gently pushed him away and smiled.

Anne: Not too fast, Kitty.

Charlie: You were the one looking, Batsy.

Anne smiled and moved his hair aside before they both shared a kiss as Charlie pulled her closer by her waist before they both broke the kiss and began chuckling.

Charlie: Naughty, aren't you?

Anne: Well, this cat wanted to play.

They got closer again until Charlie's phone began ringing as He was annoyed and went to grab his phone and saw it was Mark.

Charlie: Call in a better timing, Next time, Mark.

Charlie answered the phone as Anne was holding her neck, He continued talking on the phone before he hung up the call and walked towards Anne.

Charlie: Well, some work came up, and I need to go right now.

Anne: Oh, it's okay, I'll meet you next time.

Charlie: Not so fast, I'm taking you with me.

Anne: Really? But-

Charlie: Come on, no one is gonna mind seeing the ceo of winters cooperation roaming around my company. I want to show you around as well.

Anne was thinking about it before she nodded as Charlie smiled and kissed her cheek.

Charlie: You're always adorable when you smile.

Anne looked at him as Mercer walked away to change his clothes as she was thinking about him.

Soon, Charlie was ready as both Winters and Mercer got in the car, He looked at Anne and began holding her hand as she held his hand before he drove away.

Meanwhile, the auditions were happening for a new cast in the reboot of The Haunting. A lot of actors were ready for the audition as Aaron was talking on the phone.

Aaron: Yes, the auditions are happening right now. Me and the producers are ready to select an actress of Emma Rhodes's character: Scarlett Turner.

Aaron hung up the call until his assistant came running towards him as he had a worried look on his face.

Assistant: Mister Aaron, We have a problem.

Aaron: What? What happened!?

The assistant said something as Aaron was shocked and began running with the assistant, They were I'm backstage as they saw the actresses that were auditioning for the role stepping back as someone was speaking to them.

Emma: I'm sorry to say, but Mister Crawford is wasting your time.

Actress: What are you talking about-

Emma: I was always the original Scarlett Turner, and I always will. I worked hard for this role, and I worked hard for my fame, and He won't give it to anyone else.

Aaron: Miss Rhodes! What are you doing?

Emma: I want my role back, Aaron!

Aaron: Why are spreading lies!? I told you, Emma. You're not returning for your role!

Emma: So you're giving it to any of these low class actresses. Your movie will not even be successful, and the box office will fail!

The actresses were shocked as Aaron was really angry by Emma's ego and attitude.

Aaron: Enough!!! Every actor and director should hear this from you. That way, you will never get another movie to work on!

Emma gritted her teeth in anger as she began yelling at him.

Emma: I'm not leaving until I get my movie! If you want your movie to be successful, then you HAVE to bring me.

Aaron: I'm not doing this, Miss Rhodes.

Emma: Then, who's gonna watch your movie?

Aaron: I rather cast a new actress than bring your egotistical face in the movie.

Emma was shocked and almost tried to slap Aaron until security grabbed her as Rhodes was yelling at him as Aaron walked away in anger while the actresses were shocked by what was happening.

But even after all of that, Aaron decided to continue the audition as Emma was escorted out of the building.

Emma was seen kicking down her bedroom door as She began yelling to herself and threw herself to the bed while holding her head in anger.

After she threw her tantrum, She sat by the chair and began staring at herself in the mirror in anger.

Maybe she was planning on something. . . . Devious.
