Evelyn heard Charles asking about Charlie, and she couldn't help but let out a cold, mocking laugh.

Charles adored Sandy, so he was always attentive to everything concerning her. Evelyn recalled when Sandy had just returned to the country and accidentally got separated from Dahlia in the mall. It was only a matter of minutes, but Charles was so frantic that he nearly called in all his favors to search for her. The whole city was buzzing, all for the sake of finding Sandy. That was when everyone realized Charles wasn't single and he had a daughter.

On the other hand, there was Charlie, who had never been recognized since birth and didn't receive any acknowledgment like Sandy did when she returned.

What about Charlie? How long had it been since Charles last saw her? He could misunderstand her intentions all he wanted. He didn't trust Evelyn because of that incident five years ago, where he thought she had drugged him. He believed she was prone to lying, so he didn't believe her when she said Charlie had passed away and stubbornly insisted she must have hidden Charlie away. He could think whatever he wanted! She no longer cared about his opinion of her.

But when it came to Charlie, Evelyn wished Charles could spare even a fraction of the attention he showered on Sandy for Charlie. If he cared even a little bit about Charlie or wanted to see her, he wouldn't be grilling Evelyn; he'd be investigating. If he investigated, he'd know their daughter was really gone and not pointlessly accuse her.
