Chapter 1316 Having Many Ex Boyfriends
“That won't do,” Charlotte sniffed.
“Let's not even mention that we broke up a long time ago. Back then, I was the one supporting him financially. If I
take his money now, wouldn't that be the same as him supporting me? My self-esteem won't allow me to stoop so
low.”
“Genevieve, do you think I'm really useless?” Charlotte asked her. “Timothy got me a job at Forlisle Group, but I
can't even do admin work properly. They're all gossiping about me behind my back. And the salary is so low. I work
twenty-four days a month, and I only make ten thousand.”
As she spoke, she suddenly hugged Genevieve and burst into tears, “Even the cheapest dress I used to buy would
cost more than thirty thousand.”
“You can ask Timothy for money if you want to buy clothes,” Genevieve said, aware that Jeremiah and Jiminy had a

Charlotte shook her head and said quietly, “After the incident in my family, Timothy has helped me a lot. He even
got my brother and sister jobs at Forlisle Medical. I owe him so much already; I can't spend any more of his money.”
“If only he were single, I'd simply marry him, so he could handle things with peace of mind. But he's already
married to Johanna.”
Charlotte may not have a head for business and loves to have fun, but she still remembers what her father taught
her: when it comes to anyone other than family, it's hard to repay a favor once you owe it.
So her father always taught her that if the family has money, try to solve problems with money whenever possible,
and avoid owing others any favors.
Genevieve took out two tissues and wiped her tears. “In a big corporation like yours, an admin position pays at least
ten thousand, while in other companies, it's only around five to six thousand.”
It would have been better if she hadn't said anything, but once she started talking, Charlotte couldn't help but cry
again. “I grew up surrounded by wealth. My dad would even have some of the food I ate flown in. Later on, I
received a monthly allowance of one to two million, and every time I tipped Jerry, it started at two hundred
thousand...”
Thankfully, after the Benson family went bankrupt, Jeremiah was there to help her. They lived in the mansion
quarter, with a private chef preparing three meals a day. Their living standards didn't decline much.
If she had to share a condominium with someone and eat takeout every day, she would definitely lose it.
Charlotte's tears soaked the tissue paper completely. “If only I had opened a bank account abroad earlier and
saved a few million, I wouldn't be going through such pain now.”
Genevieve handed her another tissue and asked, “Didn't your dad send you abroad to study? What did you learn?”
“Interior design,” Charlotte said sheepishly. “But I don't know anything about it. My dad donated two hundred million
to that school, and I even had someone else write my graduation thesis for me.”
“Wow, your dad must be really rich then,” Genevieve said with a twitch of her lips.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe asked Charlotte if she had any other impressive skills, to which Charlotte replied, “I've had many boyfriends,
I'm great at eating, and I'm great at traveling. Do these count?”
Genevieve couldn't help but ask, “You can't possibly have been playing around your whole life, can you?”
Charlotte nodded sincerely, “My brother and sister give me pocket money every now and then, and when they go
abroad for work, they also help me buy jewelry and bags.”
Benson Corporation was built from the ground up by Jiminy, rather than being a family business. Charlotte and her
siblings were all born to the same mother, and Jiminy treated his sons and daughters equally, spoiling them all.
Thus, the Benson family did not have any internal strife among the wealthy, and Charlotte was raised with love and
care by her parents and siblings.
Since Charlotte didn't know how to do anything, and Jiminy had a good relationship with Jeremiah, he knew the
Jensen family inside and out. That's why he always wanted to set Charlotte up with Timothy.
Seeing Genevieve pursing her lips in silence, Charlotte whispered softly, “I know I'm useless, but who could have
known...”
Who would have known that the Benson family would go bankrupt, and she would lose her father.
