"Really?" Charles raised his eyebrows and said, "I remember you have a housekeeper named Hale. During our childhood, when I used to play in your house, I used to call him Uncle Hale. I remember there is a scar on his face and it looks terrible!"
Charles had known everything.
But she would never admit anything. She had to first clarify herself. Otherwise, she would never be able to marry Charles!
"Oh, you mean Uncle Hale? He should be somewhere here. Do you want me to get him here for you? Uncle Hale, Uncle Hale," Dorothy pretended to call. She paused and then said in an upset tone, "Charles, I'm afraid Uncle Hale may be busy now. I called him just now, but he didn't answer me!"
"You don't have to call him. Just bring him to me, the CEO Office of Fang Group!"
"Certainly, Charles! That wouldn't be a problem," Dorothy replied calmly.
Charles hung up without saying anything else.
Then Dorothy slumped into the sofa, as if all her strength had been drained out.
'How much on earth does Charles know? What is he planning to do?
What will happen if he meets Hale?' she thought worryingly.
Just then, Hale ran up to her breathlessly. "Miss, did you just call me? How can I help?" "Uncle Hale..." As soon as Dorothy saw him, she started to cry. She said in despair, "I'm so sorry, Uncle Hale. I shouldn't have asked you to do something terrible like this. It's all because I loved Charles so much. But I didn't expect that Charles would find it out. Uncle Hale, he asked me to take you to him. What should I do? What should I do, Uncle Hale?"
Dorothy cried so sadly!
Hale sighed, "Miss, I've watched you grow up. Do you think I'll put you in trouble? No matter what happens, you can just blame it on me. Remember, you don't know anything!"
"Thank you, Uncle Hale. Thank you so much. I'm sorry. It's all my fault." Holding Hale in her arms, Dorothy burst into tears again. "But, what if my parents know that?"
"Don't worry, Miss. Even if I die, I won't tell them about it! " Hale said solemnly, "Let's go to Charles now!"
"Alright!" Dorothy wiped her tears. This move was always effective! She was happy as her efforts were fruitful. At least she thought so.
Soon, they arrived at the office.
Standing in front of the windowpane, Charles watched as Dorothy and Hale walked into the building.
"Here she comes," Charles said flatly.
"What if it was her?" Jay asked as he took a sip of the red wine.
The Zhuang family and the Fu family were on good terms.
The old men of the two families vowed to be brothers. At that time, Charles was only five years old and Dorothy was only two years old.
After they had drunk several cups of wine, Kevin, Dorothy's grandfather, asked, "Frederic, what do you think of my granddaughter, Dorothy?"
Frederic laughed and said, "What? Why? Do you want Charles to be your grandson-in-law?"
"Well, do you agree?" Kevin asked with a smile.
"If that's what you want, I will certainly agree."
Half joking and half serious, the two men decided the marriage.
However, the two kids didn't get along well since childhood.
Massaging his aching temples, Charles sat down on the chair.
If it was really Dorothy who did such a terrible thing to Nancy, Charles had to get his grandfather's agreement before dealing with the Zhuang family.
Right then, they heard footsteps approaching the door.
The door was pushed open, and then
Dorothy and Hale came in.
As soon as Hale entered the room, he knelt down in front of Charles with folded hands.
