Sweet May-December Marriage

Chapter 156 Scam Call

Chapter 156 Scam Call

Vivian pondered for a moment, "... probably."

Andrew suddenly stood up, and his eyes ignited a raging, intimidating, and frightening fire.

Vivian frowned slightly, sighed, and whispered, "Actually, we can't blame Char. Mr. Clark is the best choice for her."

Andrew pressed his lips together, and his usually cheerful and handsome face darkened.

Vivian glanced at the mineral water bottle he almost crushed in his grip, her lips forming a slight smile. Andrew wasn't a saint, and this unrequited love would breed resentment in him.

It would have been easier to bear if Charlotte had broken up with Andrew due to relationship problems. But unfortunately, it was because she admired power, and she ended up with Andrew's uncle.

For Andrew, Nelson was like an insurmountable mountain, a symbol of strength since childhood. The combination of male pride and Andrew's obsession with Charlotte would undoubtedly make him hate Charlotte madly and try to sabotage Charlotte's relationship with Nelson. Charlotte would undoubtedly end up in misery...

Vivian thought Andrew was a subtle weapon, much more useful than Rhona, who was merely a brainless waste born into a wealthy family.

"Andrew." Like a caring older sister, Vivian gently said, "Just let go of your feelings for Char."

Andrew didn't say anything, his lips tightly pursed.

Vivian had said what needed to be said; she understood that it was meaningless to stay any longer, so she quietly left. She didn't see the young boy standing alone on the basketball court, fiercely squeezing the mineral water bottle in his hand until it burst. Water dripped onto the ground, but it felt as if something else was flowing away. His gaze was deep.

If you leave me because of power...

Will you return to me when I become more powerful and wealthy than my uncle?

...

In the afternoon, Charlotte received a call from an unfamiliar number with a local Seyso area code. After thinking for a moment, she answered, and a strange woman's voice came from the other end, "Hello!"

It was a scam call!

Charlotte quickly said, "I don't have any savings or credit cards. I don't need a Mac or an iPhone!"

The woman remained silent momentarily and said, "Miss, I am Arthur's mother, Hazel Campbell." Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Charlotte was taken aback. Arthur?

Wasn't he the original owner of Magnolia?

Thinking back to her previous foolish remarks, Charlotte's cheeks turned red, and she quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I thought it was a scam call because it was an unfamiliar number..." She paused, "But Arthur told me that his mother had passed away..."

And he mentioned that his stepmother treated him poorly and so on.

Hazel felt slightly embarrassed as she explained, "I am his stepmother... When his biological mother suddenly passed away, he strongly disliked me. I'm allergic to dog hair, and we can't keep dogs at home, which made him hate me even more..."

Charlotte was startled. So that was the case?

Hazel continued, "But I can see that Arthur misses that dog. Could you bring the dog to our house sometime so Arthur can see it?"

Charlotte asked, "Aren't you allergic to dog hair?"

Hazel sighed, "... It shouldn't be a problem if it's not for a long time. The loss of his mother has hit Arthur hard. I'll just Let him see the dog."

It sounded like Hazel was genuinely concerned for Arthur. It was nothing like what Arthur had described...

That day when she yelled at Arthur and pulled his ear... Maybe she was just angry at that time.

Charlotte picked up her bag from the table and said, "I'm free now. I can go there right now. Please send me the address."

Hazel quickly provided the address.

Charlotte messaged Waylon about it, and Waylon headed back to Oswye Community to pick up Magnolia. Eloise heard she was getting a dog, a Samoyed, to be specific, and she was very excited. She said, "Then I'll wait with you! I love dogs, but my dad doesn't allow me to have one."

Charlotte didn't refuse and said, "You can come with me to Arthur's house and see the dog."

Eloise nodded in agreement.

Nicholas patted Charlotte's head and said, "Take care of yourself. I'm heading back now."

Charlotte reached out her hand and said, "Bye."

Cecilia put away her phone and said, "Both of you are so naive. Don't get scammed... Well, I'll go with you."

Eloise blinked at her and said, "Or maybe you just want to see Char's little dog?"

Cecilia was left speechless.

The three of them didn't wait long before Waylon arrived. When Eloise saw Waylon, she was dumbfounded. She looked at Waylon and then back at Charlotte. Finally, she tugged at Charlotte's clothes and asked, "Charlotte, be honest with me. Are you dating Waylon?"

In the past, Eloise hadn't seen Waylon when he came to pick up Charlotte. But now, seeing Waylon, the person she feared most, acting as Charlotte's driver, she recalled what happened at the beginning of the school year. She realized why Waylon would do her such a big favor. There was only one reason for it - Waylon, this shameless older man, had fallen for Charlotte!

In Eloise's eyes, Waylon was far too old for a young girl like Charlotte.

Charlotte was astonished by Eloise's wild guess and said helplessly, "... How is that possible?"

Waylon reached into the back seat and picked up the dog, and Magnolia barked excitedly when she saw Charlotte. She struggled to wriggle into Charlotte's arms, and Charlotte quickly embraced her. Waylon asked, "Do you need me to drive you there?"

Charlotte replied, "No need. You go ahead and do your thing. I'll go by myself."

Waylon said, "Then send me the address later."

Charlotte nodded.

Waylon then looked at Eloise, and Eloise immediately spoke, "Waylon, don't worry! I will take good care of Char!"

Waylon smirked, "I hope so!"

Eloise had no choice. Waylon was the one in charge of her pocket money, after all.

Waylon nodded toward Cecilia and said, "Ms. Wesley, I didn't attend your coming-of-age ceremony yesterday because I was too busy. Do you like the gift?"

Cecilia never expected that Charlotte would know Waylon.

The Colton family was one of the top noble families in Seyso, and Waylon was the most successful member of the Colton family. He had become Nelson's right-hand man, and everyone knew that Waylon's wishes were Nelson's wishes. Therefore, in Seyso, even the president had to be courteous to Waylon.

Even Cecilia, arrogant by nature, felt somewhat reserved in front of Waylon. She said, "I like it. Thanks, Mr. Colton."

The gift Waylon sent was a private island. Even Cecilia was taken aback when she saw it. Although the island was insignificant, it was still an island after all!
