My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1677

Charles didn't even lift his eyes. He picked up the cup of warm tea that was untouched and blew off the heat on it. He carefully took a sip and slowly answered, "I'll wait and see."

"Humph!" Eddison's dignity collapsed in an instant. He was so angry that he left with a flick of his sleeve.

I suddenly realized that the members of the Reid family were all first-class experts on the matter of infuriating people. If Charles had not joined politics 20 years ago, by relying on his charisma, he probably would've been another Aaron, who would've made many young girls fall for him.

After Eddison left, only the three of us were left in the living room. Charles then showed a worried look. "What did Eddison tell you?"

I said, "He urged me to convince Hendrix to let go of his grudge."

"Huh. When the fox preaches, take care of your geese." Charles snorted coldly, his face extremely disdainful. He turned his head and told the servant standing next to him, "If Mr. Gavlin comes again, don't report it. Just send him away."

It was uncommon to see Charles throwing a tantrum at someone other than Aaron. I laughed and found it interesting. "You and Eddison seem to have a much deeper grudge between him and Hendrix."

Charles let out a heavy sigh and said, "Back then, I almost caught Eddison and his gang, but he escaped at the last moment. These few years, his people have made great achievements in Jarold City, and have flourished in the black markets. I was powerless and couldn't do anything with them. I'm afraid that when I retire, I won't see them brought to justice..."

Freya and I didn't know much about the older generation and didn't know what to say, so we didn't reply.

Charles thought about it for a while before coming to his senses. He looked at Freya and changed the topic. "You're the youngest daughter of the Moore family, aren't you? You just married Zachary, right?"

"Yes." Freya smiled awkwardly.

I felt strange. When did an official at Charles' level become so familiar with Zachary?

"Mm, not bad, you two are a good match." Charles nodded his head, a look of admiration appearing on his face. "Zachary is a good comrade. In the future, he'll have a lot of opportunities to develop his abilities. As his wife, you have to strongly support him!"
