Chapter 1359
“Where’s Kya?” Magdalen scanned the lawn filled with children but couldn’t spot Ky
“Charlie’s here, and she’s with him,” Emily said.
Magdalen raised her eyebrows and chuckled, “Well, look at you, already got someone backing you up. Ella and I
were worried for nothing!”
Emily blushed, “I wish he hadn’t shown up. He’s causing me more trouble than good, and I hate owing him any
favours.”
Magdalen’s eyes sparkled, “What happened?”
Emily recounted the events after Charlie’s arrival.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMagdalen blinked, “Emily, I think Charlie really likes you”
Emily immediately responded, “He’s just feeling sorry for Kya”
Magdalen shook her head with a smile, “He doesn’t know his relationship with Kya. In his eyes, Kya is just your
daughter. Why would he feel sorry for Kya if not for you? You’re smart. Stop playing dumb”
Caught off guard, Emily fell silent.
Estelle nodded, “I agree with Magdalen.”
Emily’s gaze flickered, but she remained sceptical, “I know Charlie too well. His slight desire to conquer me is
because I lied to him and didn’t comply with him. It has nothing to do with liking me. He’s always nice to women he
wants. I’m not the first and won’t be the last. There’s nothing special.”
Magdalen propped her cheek on her hand, tapping her fingers on her cheek, and mused, “Emily does have a point.
These playboys always sweet-talk until they get what they want, and then they change their tune. Emily, you’re too
clear-headed!”
Emily smiled frankly, “I know myself well. That’s why I’m clear headed.”
However, Estelle disagreed, “I don’t think so. Charlie has never put so much effort into any woman he liked before”
Magdalen said, “That’s because no other woman has ever consistently rejected him, Men are such scumbags, and
they always want what they can’t have.”
“Exactly,” Emily nodded, her eyes calm, “He’s just fixated because he hasn’t got what he wants.”
So all she had to do was play the long game, wait till his patience ran out, and he’d let her go.
Upstairs in the VIP room
Charlie held Kya in his arms, coaxing her to eat with gentle patience that left Mr. Sample and the other executives

There was no doubt that she was Mr. James’s daughter. Who else could he love so much?
Someone tried to hand Charlie a cigarette, but he refused, “There’s a child present, no smoking”
The man hurriedly apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t think.”
After that, no one dared to smoke or even speak loudly, afraid to scare the delicate little girl in Charlie’s arms who
looked like a princess.
Mr. Sample tried to suck up to Charlie, “Your little girl is really beautiful, She has the same mouth and nose as Mr.
James
While feeding Kya a milkshake with a straw, Charlie looked up at hearing this and asked with a smile, “Does Kya look
like me?”
Mr. Sample nodded vigorously, “Yes, very much so!”
