Chapter 20
Lira was forced to stop and asked coldly, “Is there something wrong. Mr. Charlie?”
“Mr. Charlie?” Charlie raised an eyebrow,
Lira: “If you don’t like this nickname, I can also call you Mr. Faulkner.”
Charlie didn’t bother with her deliberate aloofness. If his dad hadn’t told him to find Lira, he would have just ignored her when he saw her.
“Dad told you to go back.” He relayed Blake’s message
Lira: “What’s
‘s up!.
Charlie: “What did you do to yourself?”
Lira: “What did I do?”
She had a calm expression.
Charlie sneered, “Okay, you want me to spell it out? Have you been dating some shady guy recently?
He mocked again, “Your card was blocked at home, no money to spend, huh? Relying on a man to buy a camera, you’ve embarrassed the Faulkner family.”
Lira finally understood what he was saying.
“Roselyn said that?” she asked.
Charlie sold out Roselyn very smoothly, “Yeah, when you’re not home, Ms. Roselyn is all alone, living the high life as a wealthy heiress”
Intentionally provoked her.
Charlie was as nasty as ever, stirring up trouble between her and Roselyn, sitting back and watching the drama unfold.
Lira used to fight for everything in her past life, and Charlie worked hard too.
Fortunately, she had let go.
Roselyn liked being the Faulkner family’s daughter, so let her be.
“Finished?” Lira shook her arm, “Finished, let go of me.”
She wasn’t angry at all.
Charlie was surprised, “Are you serious?”
It was about asking her about her family issues.
Lira: “I always walk the talk”
She said she would smash the whole house, not just half of it
Charlie had been watching her for over ten years, he knew her “no–nonsense attitude better than anyone else.
This won’t do
Lira stopped making trouble, aren’t Marie and Roselyn feeling more relaxed now?
Charlie couldn’t stand seeing the mother and daughter getting along so well, he insisted on taking Lira home, “Cutting off family ties isn’t something you can just decide on your own, come back with me.”
He thought Lira was just scared in the detention center, so he brought her back to the Faulkner’s villa to see Roselyn being favored every day. hoping to boost her confidence again.
“You let go of me,” Lira struggled, “I’m not going back, Charlie, if you do this again I’ll scream.”
Charlie didn’t care and said, “You try shouting and see who dares to stop me?
Tve heard of Spider Demon and Centipede Demon before, but it’s the first time I’ve seen Toad Demon, with such a big mouth.

A faint voice behind stopped Charlie.
Charlie suddenly turned around and saw someone standing in the shadows. The light only illuminated his lower body, his face hidden in the darkness, unable to be seen clearly.
Lira smiled and forcefully pushed Charlie away before running towards the other side.
Charlie came to his senses and quickly grabbed her waist from behind, warning, “You better behave yourself. Is that your shady boyfriend? Don’t forget, you’re engaged! If you dare to see other men, Dad will break your legs”
Upon hearing that, Lira stopped snuggling right away.
Daning to say he’s shady in front of the prince, Lira was waiting to see
in to see Charlie’s had hick.
Charlie thought he had scared her, so he put his arm around her waist and said, “You’re going to marry into the Duran family, stop dreaming about men you can’t have”
This is too specific, it’s like they just need Xander’s ID number.
In her past life, she liked Xander but kept it a secret, using Scott Duran as a shield. Everyone thought she liked Scott, only Charlie knew she liked Kander.
When he found out what she was thinking, he really humiliated her, scolded her very harshly, calling her a shameless slut just like her mother.
Lira’s fist clenched and then relaxed, a hint of coldness passing through her eyes “Charlie”
Charlie: “What’s
- up.
did someone tickle your funny bone?”
- Lira: “You turned around”
