Riches in Disguise

Chapter 35

Previously, I could still say that Charlotte was the one who misunderstood the situation. Right now, however, Lucas was actually lying.

Nevertheless, I soon noticed the slight stiffness in Lucas' expression.

If he and his father were in on the lie together, he wouldn't have had such a strange expression after ending the call.

So, my guess is that his father told him the truth, but he was the one who decided to lie through his teeth till the end.

At this moment, an apologetic look came across Charlotte's face. "I'm sorry, Lucas. Aunt Bonnie didn't have any ill intentions. Please don't hold it against her."

Lucas laughed awkwardly. "No worries."

At the end of the day, Bonnie was someone who had been around the block. She scrutinized Lucas for a moment with a skeptical gaze.

But, she didn't say much to his face.

"Okay, all's good as long as you're fine. I can be at ease now. I'm gonna leave."

Charlotte nodded. "Aunt Bonnie, take these fruits and milk back for your little one. There's too much for me to finish."

"Alright, then."
