"Char..." Vivian wanted to say something, but Cecilia slammed down her knife and fork and said impatiently, "Didn't you hear Charlotte refuse?"
"Cecilia, I have to do this." Vivian frowned and said sadly, "My aunt wants me to do so..."
"Tell her." Charlotte looked into Vivian's eyes, "It's impossible."
"Okay." Vivian stood up and bit her lip. "Then I won't bother you."
Eloise leaned over and asked, "Char, you just said that you have nothing to do with the Lopez family... What do you mean?"
Charlotte paused and replied, "It means literally. I have disowned the Lopez family."
"Why?" Eloise was puzzled. "Is your family not nice to you?"
The price of Charlotte's daily necessities was high, and many of her things were several times better than Vivian's. Therefore, Eloise and Cecilia always thought that Charlotte was living well in the Lopez family.
Charlotte lowered her head and said, "Vivian's mother doesn't like me, and my father doesn't like me either. So I have no reason to stay in that house."
If Aurora hadn't been using Charlotte's grandfather to coerce her, Charlotte would have left so a long time ago.
The people were quiet for a while. Cecilia coughed and said, "Don't be sad. If you have nowhere to go, I can..."
"I have a place to live." Charlotte said, "And I'm not sad. On the contrary, I'm very happy."
Charlotte's admiration for Jonathan had long fallen apart in his discriminatory practices of the past eight years.
...
"Did she really say that?" Amanda was furious and said angrily, "This son of bitch..." This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Vivian pretended to be cowardly and whispered, "Char has a backer now, and it's normal that she doesn't take us seriously. Amanda, don't be angry. I will ask my classmates to notice the job opportunities for Helena..."
Helena was taking selfies and had facial deformation because of the retouching. Hearing Vivian's words, Helena turned her head and said, "I have long heard that the best private hospital in Seyso belongs to the Clark Group. I only want to work there. It's not much work and it pays well!"
Certainly, Amanda supported Helena very much and said, "Charlotte is really ungrateful. I will definitely make her agree, and I won't make my baby girl have a hard life."
Vivian looked frightened on the surface, but she sneered in her heart.
She thought, "With Amanda and Helena, Charlotte will have a tough time!"
...
"Charlotte." Nicholas grabbed Charlotte's schoolbag strap and said, "Wait a minute."
Charlotte stopped and looked at Nicholas in confusion. "What's the matter?"
Nicholas was much taller than Charlotte. When he talked to her, he had to lower his head. Because of that, his eyes looked so deep and so gentle. Besides, the little mole at the end of his eye could
be seen clearly. When Nicholas was staring at someone intently, it often made the person feel that he was cherished by Nicholas, and Nicholas' usual impatience was also covered completely.
"Graham asked me to give you something, but I forgot it before."
Then Nicholas took out a beautifully packed wooden box from his schoolbag. "There're all kinds of desserts made by the servant. The Bennett family has a servant who is very good at making desserts. It tastes good. Try it."
Charlotte took the box and squinted. "Then thank Graham for me."
Nicholas walked out side by side with her and asked, "Where are Cecilia and the others?"
It was the first time Charlotte had received a gift from an elder other than her grandfather and mother. She was very happy holding the small box and replied, "They are going to buy clothes, and I don't want to go."
Seeing Charlotte was happy, Nicholas smiled and asked, "You like eating these?"
Charlotte nodded and said, "My mother used to make desserts for me before she died, but I've rarely eaten them since she died."
Charlotte's words melted Nicholas' heart. Nicholas grabbed her hair softly and said, "If you like these, I will bring them to you again in the future. If Graham knows you like them, he should be very happy."
Charlotte gave a short response.
The two said goodbye at the school gate. Nicholas narrowed his eyes, watched Charlotte get into the car, and then stared thoughtfully at the license plate number of the car.
That was six sixes, which was very blatant.
Many people liked this kind of license plate number. As far as Nicholas knew, this kind of license plate with pure numbers and the same numbers belonged to the military region.
Nicholas thought, "Does Charlotte have anything to do with the people in the military region?"
...
Nelson didn't come home for two consecutive days. It was Friday in a flash. Charlotte came back from school and still didn't see Nelson.
Charlotte thought, "He said he would take me to buy a gift on Saturday. Maybe he's forgotten it."
Charlotte couldn't help being a little frustrated. Then she thought, "I'm not a child. I can go out without Mr. Clark! On Saturday, I'll just go to a shopping mall and have a look. If I really don't know what to buy, I can call Eloise."
After the meal, Charlotte lay on the sofa and played with Magnolia. When she taught Magnolia how to play Frisbee, Nelson came back.
Charlotte jumped off the sofa in surprise and ran to Nelson. She raised her head and looked at him with shining eyes as if full of stars. "Mr. Clark! You are back!"
Magnolia also ran over wagging its tail.
Nelson hung the windbreaker on the coat rack, and his side face was blurred by the light. He said in a low voice, "Well, miss me?"
"No... Nope." Charlotte quickly denied it. Then she asked, "Have you finished your work?"
"No." Nelson took Charlotte's hand and asked, "Why are you not wearing shoes?"
Charlotte looked down and found that she was indeed bare-footed. She couldn't help but curl her toes and whispered, "I... I forgot it." Charlotte was afraid that Nelson would reproach her, so she hurriedly said, "It won't happen again!"
Nelson said, "I forgive you this time. After all, I can understand how you miss me."
Charlotte thought, "I said no, okay?"
Charlotte sat cross-legged on the sofa, turned her head, and asked, "Since you haven't finished your work yet, why did you come back?"
Nelson took a sip of water, standing at the end table. Then he glanced at Charlotte and replied, "Because I promised you to go out tomorrow."
Charlotte was stunned, unconsciously rubbing Magnolia's belly. "Thank you for remembering, but work is more important."
"It's okay. It's almost handled." Nelson thought, "The disobedient people have been dealt with."
Nelson said, "I heard Cora say that you have been very obedient lately. You deserve praise. I will reward you with a lollipop."
Then he took out a strawberry-shaped lollipop from the pocket of his shirt and handed it to Charlotte.
Charlotte took it and thanked Nelson. Then she couldn't wait to peel the lollipop and thought, "It's from Mr. Clark!"
However, as soon as Charlotte stuffed the lollipop into her mouth, she immediately took it out with a scream. She puckered her face and shouted, "It's so sour!"
