NovelEnglishCharlie smiled in response to Yule's remark and said," I have many things to attend to in Aurous Hill, so I have to go back." Yule nodded gently and said with a sigh, "Please cto Eastcliff often to visit us. My wife and I are looking forward to your return to Eastcliff." 6 Charlie simply hummed and didn't say anything more.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYule tacitly dropped the subject and asked, "Charlie, you said you were going to your friend's grandmother's birthday banquet tomorrow. Have you prepared a gift?" Charlie replied, "Not yet. I plan to hit the streets to look for it later." 5 Although Charlie had the Rejuvenating Pill that was a significant and precious gift to the elderly, he couldn't give Loreen's grandmother such an expensive gift for her birthday since he had never even met her before. Therefore, he planned to buy a gift with a price range of a hundred thousand to show his sincerity. 7 Hearing that, Yule laughed and said, "I have a small painting at home-it is Henri Matisse's Portrait de Famille. You may as well take it and give it to her as a birthday present." Charlie quickly said, "Oh no, Uncle Golding, I can't do that. How could I take your belongings and give it to others? It's okay, I'll just buy one in the mall." 3 Yule continued insisting, "Shush, don't you reject my offer. It's just a small painting. It isn't worth much, but because it is a portrait of a family, it's very suitable to present it as a birthday gift for the elderly." With that, Yule continued in a somewhat stern voice," It's settled. Don't you dare reject my offer, just take it. Take it as my effort to help you. If you refuse, I'll be angry." 6 Seeing Yule's resolute attitude, Charlie simply smiled and said, "Okay, then. Thank you, Uncle Golding!" The next morning.
Charlie declined Yule's offer to chauffeur him to the banquet venue and walked out of the Golding family house by himself with a square gift box in his hands.
Claire had sent him an address, which was the location of the Thomas family house.
The house was not far from the Golding family house, which was only a 20-minute drive away, i In Eastcliff's social pyramid, the Thomas family could only be regarded as a borderline second-rate family, which had almost fallen to third-rate.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the past few years, the Thomas family's business had declined severely. If it wasn't for the fact that Doreen's aunt had married into the renowned Koch family, which had helped them pull sstrings, they would have fallen to the third-rate level of the social pyramid. 8 However, this was Eastcliff after all, and the social ranking was based on Eastcliff's standard. Even if they were a borderline second-rate family in the city, they could definitely becthe top family in other second-tier cities. Because of this, despite the second-rate ranking, the Thomas family house was a grand luxury villa worth a t least 300 million.
The cab that Charlie took could only stop at the entrance of the villa compound, and the security management was very strict, so he could only get off at the entrance and call Loreen, asking her to pick him up 6 When Loreen heard that Charlie had come, she almost ran out with childlike joy. 6
Today, Loreen was dressed up very beautifully and had even put on an little makeup because of the occasion, which made her look very dignified and elegant. 7 As soon as she saw Charlie, she grinned happily." Charlie! There you are!"
She trotted toward him, grabbed his arm, pulled him to go inside, and said, "Come! Tintroduce you to my parents later."
Charlie quickly pulled his arm out of m her grasp and said awkwardly, "Loreen don't do this. It's inappropriate..." 3 Loreen deliberately pouted and mumbled, "Why not? Like RICH WOMEN? X These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming these rich. women will persue you.
