The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 809

Mrs. Lewis sighed, "It was my job to take you off the street and into the orphanage, but you don’t have the obligation to take care of me and pay for the expensive medical bills. Besides, I know very well how your life in the Wilson family is..." 5

Then, she continued, "Don't worry, Charlie, I’ll find a way to pay you back."

Charlie was moved. Mrs. Lewis had really treated him as her own son and cared so much about him.

He said in a sincere tone, "Mrs. Lewis, you don't have t o worry about the money nor pay me back either." 1

"No, I can’t do that! It is a lot of money, I have to repay you!"

"No, Mrs. Lewis. I’ll always remember your kindness towards me. It's my duty to spend money on your treatment. If you still insist on paying me back, you're treating me as a stranger and I might not want to see you again!” 1

Mrs. Lewis smiled warmly at his remark, but she knew that she couldn't accept his money just like that. She would return the money to him no matter what he said. 7

But, she said on the phone, “Since you're an adult now, I'll listen to you. By the way, how are you and Claire doing?"

Mrs. Lewis was quite concerned about them as she remembered how delicate and unusual their relationship was. 5

She knew that Charlie had married her for some special reason and the couple didn’t seem to be very intimate or close, but she always felt that they were a match made in heaven.

Therefore, she wholeheartedly prayed that they could develop feelings towards each other, have a child together, and live happily ever after. 1

Charlie chuckled rather awkwardly and said, "Claire and I are doing fine. When you come back, I’ll bring her along when I pick you up!" 3

Mrs. Lewis heaved a sigh of relief. "Hey, hurry up and get Claire pregnant! You guys aren't young anymore, it's time for you to have a baby. Listen to me, your relationship will improve tremendously when you have a baby!" 4

Charlie, on the other hand, sighed dejectedly. He couldn't even sleep in the same bed with Claire yet, so i t was a little too early to want children now, wasn’t it? s

But, of course, he couldn't be truthful about it, so he smiled and said instead, "Yes, I know. Don’t worry, we'll think about it."
