The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

Chapter 4007

Charlie originally wanted to help as well, but Mrs. Lewis drove him out of the kitchen with the excuse that he was a guest from afar. She couldn't possibly make the guest work in the kitchen. Facing her resolute rejection, Charlie didn't insist any further.

Stephanie took the opportunity to show Charlie around the villa.

At eight o'clock, Mrs. Lewis finished preparing a sumptuous meal with Claudia's aid.

Stephanie took out a bottle of juice from the refrigerator. She said to Charlie with a cheery grin, "Brother Charlie, no one drinks liquor here. We take juice instead!" Charlie nodded. He didn't mind. He followed her lead, took the juice bottle from her, and poured it into four cups.

Mrs. Lewis was in a particularly good mood. She picked up her glass and smiled as she cheered, "Come! Let's drink together and welcome Charlie to Canada!"

Stephanie applauded immediately. Smiling as well, she added, "Welcome, Brother Charlie! I hope you'll visit us in Vancouver more often in future!"

Charlie also raised his glass, smiling along with all of them.'Thank you for your hospitality, everyone. I promise I'll drop by more often when I have time."
