The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

When Marianne heard Charlie's words, she felt even more emotional and reluctant.

She pretended to be relaxed and smiled as she said, "Okay! I will take you there tomorrow night, then."

After saying that, she suddenly found that she had already run out of topics to talk about with Charlie.

She did not dare to ask him about the previous topic, but she also did not know what else she could talk about with Charlie now.

In truth, she had a lot of questions that she wanted to ask Charlie. For example, she wanted to ask him which part of Oskia he was from, whether he was already married at the age of twenty-eight years old, or whether he had a girlfriend.

Or perhaps she could ask him if he would like to stay longer in Hong Kong because Marianne had a lot of places that she had never shared with others before, and she wanted to take Charlie there along with her for a walk or to take a look at the place and experience it with her.

However, she did not dare to ask him any of these questions.

First of all, she did not dare to ask him, and secondly, she did not dare to hear Charlie's answer.

So, there was a sudden silence in the car.

It was the rainy season in Hong Kong, and it started drizzling halfway through the journey. Marianne, who was originally peeking at Charlie from the corner of her eye, looked at the raindrops on the car window, and she was soon a little lost in her thoughts. Charlie was looking at the front of the car and glancing at Marianne from the corner of his eye from time to time. When he looked at her absentmindedness, he subconsciously asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"Huh?" Marianne suddenly came back to her senses, straightened her soft hair, and smiled at Charlie as she whispered," Nothing. I was just watching the rain."

Charlie was very curious. "What's so nice about the rain? Do you like rainy days?"

Marianne shook her head. "No, I don't. I hate rainy days."

Charlie laughed and said, "It's always raining in Hong Kong, so it does not seem to be very friendly for someone like you who hates the rain.

"That's right." Marianne pursed her lips and smiled bitterly as she said, "It will make people feel even more depressed if a lot of bad things happen on a rainy day. It will make people feel even more resentful of the rain."

Charlie seemed to have guessed something, so he nodded lightly and changed the subject immediately. "By the way, Miss Marianne, you're about to graduate with your doctorate degree. What are your plans after graduation?"

Marianne was surprised by Charlie's

sudden change of topic. After being stunned for a moment, she realized that Charlie must have changed the subject because he did not want her

to be reminded of sad thing the

she smiled and said, "I will benoveldrama

graduating this summer. I plan to go to Africa according to my original plan after graduation to further implement the charity that I have been doing. After that, I will come back to find a job that is related to my major. I will work while continuing to do what I can for

charity, then."

Charlie asked curiously, "Why do you need to look for a job? Wouldn't it be better for you to go to your father's company? You're the eldest daughter of the family, and he will probably be handing his business over to you to inherit in the future."

Marianne shook her head and

smiled as she said, "I'm not too interested in that business. I have been studying English at university until my doctorate degree. I don't know anything about finance and economy, so I cannot do any work in this area at all."

Having said that, Marianne then joked in a self-deprecating manner, "Besides, look at me. I'm not suited to do business. Up till now, there is still a monthly deficit of two hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars that my father has to pay every month for my food street. If I were to really inherit his business, I'm afraid that it would not take long before I lose the entire family fortune."
