Chapter 1870
To Senior Jordan’s words, everyone agreed.
"Yeah, the past is in the past. Charmine is generous; she won’t hold it against us." "Furthermore, we were lied to! We didn't do it on purpose." 1 "It’s in the past, so let's not mention it. Charmine will forever be a Jordan."
Charmine listened to their pretentious responses, yet she remained calm.
She did not expose them nor did she accept them.
Anthony's large hands reached out and held onto Charmine’s cold, small hands in silent reassurance.
Although he was not there to witness her past, hearing how these people spoke, he could imagine how they had treated her at this place back then....
He looked at her with a pain in his eyes.
With him around, he would not allow anyone else to hurt Charmine again.
Following that, everyone was very friendly toward Charmine. They even asked her how she was doing.
Charmine did not grow impatient. She answered all of their questions.
Senior Jordan saw how Charmine was getting along quite well with them, and he had a pleased look on his face.
He knew the hurt they had inflicted on Charmine was nowhere to be repaid.
From this moment onward, he just wanted redemption.
The only wish he had was for her to be happy. He did not expect her to forgive the Jordans.
Speaking of which, he looked at Anthony and said, "Anthony, I want to talk to you." "Alright."
Anthony got up from the sofa. He let go of Charmine's hand and looked at her deeply, his gaze having spoken louder than words.
Charmine nodded gently.
Anthony then went upstairs with Senior Jordan.
Joey, meanwhile, went into the kitchen and cooked the dishes Charmine liked.
Charmine leaned on the sofa with her skinny legs crossed. Although she was chatting with her family, there was still a line separating her from them.
She took some food and ate silently.
Lily sat opposite her. After she finished talking to Amelia, she looked at Charmine and thought for a while but still could not resist asking," Charmine, is your Poulenc earning a lot of money?"
Charmine looked up, but before she could answer, Felix replied, "Look at you! How can you not read the news? The news reported clearly that they made tens of billions of sales within half an hour. How is it possible to not earn a lot?”
Lily smiled awkwardly. "I wasn't paying attention before."
With that said, she looked at Charmine. "Charmine, you're now incredibly wealthy with a good husband, and even your career is exponentially bettering. We're a family after all, so why don't you give us some shares? Even ten percent is fine! Otherwise, you’ll be the only one improving and being in theContent provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
wealthiest rank while we, your family, are working at the bottom rank. How embarrassing would that be?" 3
Felix added, "Charmine, we're your family after all. I’m your uncle. I don't want to work as a security guard anymore. You have no idea how difficult it is for me to go to work every day... They even asked why my niece is so well -off and I still have to work as a security guard. Goodness, those words do stab at me like knives to my heart, you know..." 1
The two of them looked pathetic as if they were the most pitiable people on earth. They were near tears, too.
Charmine ate her food quietly. When she heard that they had finished, she cleared her dish and answered, her tone cold yet professional, "My apologies, but as I've said, if you want to work at the Jordan Group, you have to work for what you want. If you want the shares, you work for them!" 1
Lily and Felix's faces stiffened.
This was how Charmine behaved before marriage, yet this trait of her remained even after?
