Facade of Love Novel novel Chapter 234

Chapter 234 Do You Trust Charlie That Much? 

Emily was momentarily stunned, then looked at me somewhat bewilderedly and asked, “Am I really being too paranoid?” 

Looking at her, I said, “Don’t worry for now. Liam isn’t that kind of person. I think it’s just some young girl who has taken a fancy to Liam, but he doesn’t reciprocate those feelings. He’s considering your feelings, which is why he didn’t tell you about this. You should focus on taking care of yourself and avoid arguing with Liam. If there really is a problem, with so many elders in the Young family, Liam will have to take their views into account.” 

I was not good at giving advice, but after talking to Emily for a while, she pursed her lips and did not dwell on it any longer. She sighed while gently touching her belly and said, “I was thinking of waiting until Madam Young got a bit better before telling everyone this good news, but now…“! 

I gave a slight smile and said, “No matter how it’s announced, it’s still good news. I saw Grandma earlier, and she looked very happy.” 

Emily smiled at me and said, “Liam and I are expecting our second child, and you and Iddy should also hurry up. The old manor will be quite lively with more children around…” 

After speaking, she seemed to remember that Idris and I were divorced and apologized somewhat awkwardly, “I spoke without thinking. I didn’t mean anything by it. Don’t take it to heart.” 

I shook my head smilingly and said it was okay. 

After chatting with Emily for a while and realizing it was getting late, I left the Western Garden to meet Charlie as I had arranged. 

As I reached the courtyard gate, I ran into Liam and Idris, who had returned with the medicine. I was slightly surprised that they had come back so soon. 

When Liam saw me leaving, he said, “Do you have something urgent to do? If not, maybe you can have breakfast with us before going. 

I shook my head and smiled, “I have an appointment to keep. I’ll come back later to see Emily. Due to Idris’s presence, I did not mention Sweety’s matter to Liam but simply exchanged a few pleasantries. 

Idris then said, “I’ll drive you there.” 

Before I could object, he added, “I’ll go start the car.” With that, he left. 

I stood there momentarily dumbfounded, swallowing the words I had intended to say. 

Fine. Why bother bickering about these things? We all lived in the same house anyway. 

After bidding goodbye to Liam, I left the house to find Idris already waiting outside in the car. 

Once I got in, he asked, “Where to?” 

I gave him the address Charlie had given and then fell silent. 

There was not much to talk about throughout the journey, so we both remained quiet.. 

When we arrived at the restaurant downstairs, I glanced at the handsome man beside me and said, “Thank you. 

Then, I opened the door to get out of the car. That was when I heard his deep voice coming from behind me, “I’ll wait for you outside.” 

What? 

I frowned and looked at him, saying, “No need. You can go about your business. I’ll just take a cab back after the meeting. 

He raised an eyebrow at me, his voice calm as he asked, “Do you trust Charlie that much?” 

His question seemed odd, and I realized after a moment that he was waiting outside because he was worried about my meeting with Charlie. For safety’s sake? 

Slightly pursing my lips, I replied irritably, “It’s a business meeting in a public place. Besides, he’s from Silvana, and I’m a local from Lake City. If there’s any distrust, it should be him being wary of me.”
