Chapter 51 Hug
Reagan felt relieved and said, "He asked for leave because he is not feeling well. He will come tomorrow."
Vivian nodded, took a sip of orange juice, and murmured, "Speaking of which, Andrew and Char have dated before."
Reagan's face distorted when she asked, "What?"
Vivian pretended to be stunned, covered her mouth, and said, "I did not say anything."
Reagan grabbed her hand and said, "I heard it! Vinny, make it clear!"
Vivian looked at her and embarrassedly said, "Fine! But you must promise you won't make trouble for Char."
Reagan suppressed her anger and said, "I promise."
"I don't know how they met because Char barely talks to me. I heard they dated in school. Char had good relationships with other boys, so they quarreled. After Andrew's family warned her about something, he transferred to another school."
Reagan said, "I see. After seducing Andrew, the b*tch messed around with other men!"
Vivian embarrassedly said, "You can't say so. I don't know what exactly happened. Why don't you ask Andrew about it when he comes tomorrow?"
Reagan was fuming with anger and wished she could beat Charlotte, so she said, "There is no need to ask! She is a despicable illegitimate daughter!"
A mocking smile flashed across Vivian's eyes when she pulled Reagan and said, "Reagan, calm down. Let's enjoy the meal!"
...
Nicholas left for business after lunch, so Eloise showed Charlotte around the school.
Arriving at the artificial lake of Srolanya High School, Eloise couldn't help saying, "Char, I'm sorry for asking you to move to Nicholas's side."
Charlotte shook her head, "Never mind. Nicholas is a good person." Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Eloise was speechless, thinking no one would agree with her words. But she didn't want to scare her with Nicholas' past deeds. After all, Charlotte looked timid.
Eloise changed the subject and asked, "Is this lake beautiful?"
Charlotte nodded.
Eloise said, "The first principal and founder of Srolanya High School built it for his wife and named it Evening Star. At night, the stars here are beautiful."
Charlotte said, "They must be an affectionate couple."
Eloise nodded, "Yes."
Turning around, she happened to see the wind blowing up Charlotte's long hair around her ears, so she asked, "Char, why do you dress so rustic?"
Mr. Clark had said she was good-looking like this when she had left home this morning. So, she cautiously asked, "Is it ugly?"
Eloise nodded without hesitation.
Charlotte was speechless, thinking her taste was normal. Sure enough, there was something wrong with Mr. Clark.
Eloise reached out to touch Charlotte's hair and said, "Your hair is in tip-top condition. Why are you wearing a middle-aged lady's hairstyle?"
Charlotte did not want Mr. Clark to feel lonely, so she said against her will, "Because I think it looks pretty."
Eloise was at a loss for words, thinking Charlotte's taste was weird. Then, she reached out to take off Charlotte's black-rimmed glasses and pushed her long bangs back. Suddenly, she gasped in shock, "D*mn!"
Charlotte was startled, immediately widened her eyes, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Eloise hurriedly put the glasses back, strangely blushed, and coughed, "Well, you do look good like this. Don't change your style!"
Charlotte was speechless, suspecting there was indeed something wrong with her taste.
Eloise patted her chest, thinking Charlotte was a stunner. She had never seen such a good-looking person before. Her skin was fair and tender like milk tofu, making her people pinch it. And her facial features were exquisite. When she widened her round eyes, she looked cute!
Eloise was pretty, and the people around her were also good-looking. She had broad horizons, so she did not even think the stars on TV were attractive. But Charlotte's face had amazed her! Fortunately, Charlotte didn't show her face to the public. Otherwise, it would have brought her a lot of trouble.
Eloise calmed herself down and said, "Let's go back. The class is about to begin."
Charlotte obediently nodded, "Okay."
Seeing her so docile, Eloise liked her more.
...
Charlotte did not know she had become famous. The students were having a heated discussion on the campus network about her relationship with Nicholas. They had created rumors, and their words were harsh.
Eloise knew the matter but dared not tell her, for fear that she would feel upset.
But Eloise was thinking too much. Charlotte's life had been like this since kindergarten. She had made some friends at the beginning. But as soon as they had known she was an illegitimate daughter whose mother was a mistress, they distanced themselves from her. She was numb about such things now.
Adaption Class at Srolanya High School ended early. When Eloise went shopping with her friends, Charlotte did not go. After all, she had neither money nor interest.
She did not stand up and pack her things until everyone else left the classroom. When she went out of the classroom with her schoolbag, there were few people outside. She breathed a sigh of relief and walked toward the school gate.
There was a low-key black luxury car at the gate. It was not eye-catching, but its price was extremely high. There were no more than ten such cars across the country.
Seeing Waylon in the driver's seat, Charlotte walked over. When he was about to get out of the car to open the door for her, she quickly refused and got into the car by herself.
Waylon started the car and asked, "Ms. Lopez, are you used to the new school?"
Charlotte nodded, "Yes, Eloise treats me well."
Waylon laughed, "She has a quick tongue. Don't be angry with her if she says what she thinks without deliberation."
Charlotte couldn't help laughing.
They did not notice someone raise a mobile phone and record her getting into the car. Soon, the person posted it on the campus website and used it as evidence of her being a mistress. And people all thought the illegitimate daughter was not simple. After all, a luxury car worth tens of millions of dollars had come to pick her up.
...
When returning to the Clarks' mansion, Charlotte was relieved that no one dared to point fingers at her because of Waylon.
Nelson was not at home, so she started doing her homework.
The door was pushed open at about seven. Looking up, Charlotte saw Nelson walking in. His face against the light was expressionless, but the look in his eyes was sullen. He was exuding gloomy vibes, so she knew he was in a bad mood. Seeing her, he hoarsely said, "Little girl, come here and give me a hug."
Charlotte wanted to refuse but somehow felt he was both fierce and pitiful. For the sake of her life, she put down the pen in her hand and slowly walked over.
