Chapter 45
Lauren couldn’t control herself and squatted down. She looked up at Charlie and said, “She didn’t hurt
Leo, right?”
But Charlie looked at her without speaking, which made Lauren more nervous and worried about Leo.
Lauren felt she couldn’t
even breathe as if her heart was grabbed by someone.
Charlie was originally very satisfied with the story he made up. But when he saw that Lauren was only
concerned about Leo, but
didn’t care about him at all even if he was standing right before her. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Charlie was a little disappointed and thought, “Why did she just ask about her son? Didn’t I mean
anything to her? Why didn’t she
show any concern to me?”
Though Charlie was a little disappointed, he didn’t show it on his face. He was pretending to tell a true
story to Lauren and
implied her he was a good father.
Charlie knew Lauren too well. It was more effective to take a soft attitude when he was facing Lauren.
Although now Lauren
forget him completely, but Charlie could feel her personality had not changed.
When he came to know that Lauren had forgotten him, Charlie even wanted to see her immediately
and tell her about
everything. Charlie wanted Lauren to remember what happened between them.
But he decided not to do that. Charlie thought if he told her everything, Lauren would definitely not
believe it. And she even
wanted to take Leo away.
Therefore, Charlie made a plan. He wanted Lauren to remember all that by herself.
Lauren now didn’t know about what Charlie was thinking and she came to believe him and buy his
story. Lauren put her feet into Charlie’s shoes and thought if Leo was her child and someone tried use
Leo to threaten her, she would also put on her guards to
protect Leo.
Thinking of this, Lauren forgave what Charlie did before. She took a deep breath and asked Charlie,
“What happened later? Was
Leo injured?”
“She only cares about Leo! Didn’t she see his bruises? Why didn’t she care about me?” Charlie
thought. He glanced at Lauren and didn’t want to mention Leo, “I don’t wan to talk about this right now.
Then Charlie lowered his head and pretended to look painful.
Seeing this, Lauren got more worried. She wanted to ask Charlie more but she was afraid that she
might hear some bad news.
She couldn’t imagine that the lovely Leo got hurt.
“Miss. Bennett,” Charlie said to Lauren and continued his story, “I hope you can understand me.”
Lauren nodded. She knew the reason why Charlie treated her like that was that he cared so much
about Leo.”
Then Charlie continued. “I admitted my mistake. Now I know that you are actually the lost daughter of
Mr. Bennett. I hope you
can forgive me.”
Lauren smiled and looked sincere, saying, “I know it was because you cared too much about Leo.”
Charlie stared at Lauren for a while, and suddenly said, “Leo likes you and I also think you are a good
person. Can I call you
