Substitute Bride and Her Husband Who Disappeared novel Chapter 79

"No need."

Charlie clenched his teeth and slowly closed his eyes. His heart felt as if it was being cut by a blunt knife, back and forth. Though there was no bleeding, the pain made his heart shrivel up.

No matter how well he treated Nancy, she was still thinking about leaving him...

His deep eyes slowly opened and he looked greatly disappointed. He gently curled his lips, laughing with irony, "Just like you said, we're both adults. If you’re OK with that, I can also accept the result.”

After saying that, he stood up and turned to leave without giving Nancy another glance.

Sat there with the half-eaten sandwich in her plate now unappealing, Nancy knew Charlie was angry.

It was understandable. Even she felt she was a bad girl by trying to get rid of him with a little money after sleeping with him.

But Lily’s words still echoed in her mind. She had lost her virginity. She couldn't lose her heart too.

She simply didn't have a family background like Vivian's, let alone Vivian's status. From all aspects, she didn’t deserve Charlie, the son of the super wealthy family in City Nustin.

Not wanting to eat breakfast anymore, Nancy picked up her bag and got up. She had classes today and she also had to move her suitcase back from school.

At the door, Maid Heather had finished hanging out the laundry and was coming back. Seeing her, Maid Heather smiled, “Mrs. Firth, are you going out?"

"Yes."

Just when Nancy was about to leave, Maid Heather called her again, "Mrs. Firth, aren’t you and Young Master Firth supposed to take over the villa at Peace Lake together today? Young Master Firth just left. Why didn’t you go with him?"

Nancy blinked in surprise, "What villa at Peace Lake?"

Maid Heather saw her confusion and realized that Young Master Firth did a good deed without telling Nancy. She kindly said, "Yesterday Young Master Firth brought you home. Once he saw the wounds on your arm, he got so angry that he suspended all cooperation with the Mirren family right away. Mr. Mirren and Mrs. Mirren came to make an apology in the rain. Then, Young Master Firth fiercely disciplined them. In the end, Mr. Mirren agreed to give you the villa at Peace Lake."

Nancy stood there. Images of Samuel and Lily coming to apologize flooded her mind. She never expected that the aloof and arrogant Lily would abase herself like that.

Did Charlie do that to take revenge for her?

"Thanks, I know."
