Chapter 23: Why Is It You
Chapter 23: Why Is It You
"Boom!" © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
In an apartment in a high-end residential area, Maggie's face was terrible. She smashed the vase and
cup frantically.
"Why!"
"It's impossible. Why isn't it me!"
"Who is that woman? Who is it!"
The woman was very frightened. She hugged Maggie and persuaded, "Take it easy. Maggie, we still
have a chance. This young master may not be the one who gave the bride price!"
"Maggie, I asked in WeChat Group. No one was invited to Zique Mountain. Isabella is also at home. So
your mother is right, we should be wrong!"
Maggie gradually calmed down, clenching her fists, "Yes, there is still a chance. I still have a chance. I
will definitely be able to marry into a rich family."
At the same time, Isabella cried sadly at home.
"Mom, why isn't it me? Why?"
Spencer and Axel didn't know how to comfort her. Fortunately, the other daughters of the Hunt Family
weren't invited, either.
The drone broadcast was still playing. The woman in the velvet robe walked into Zhizun Villa under
countless gazes.
"Tsk."
The more Spencer looked at it, the more she felt that something was wrong, "What's it going on? That
young master just now, and now this young lady, I feel both very familiar!"
"Honey, are you stunned?"
"The picture pauses. Zoom in."
Axel shook his head and said, "Zooming in is useless. The top of Zique Mountain is originally foggy.
Besides, it’s at night. The video is not clear and the zoom is blurry."
"It's really weird!" Spencer muttered to herself.
Isabella wiped off her tears. She stared at the picture again, feeling weird. Suddenly, a shocking idea
popped into her mind, ‘This figure is very similar to sister. Is it possible...’
‘No. Sister is already married. Besides, she went to Linghu Park.’
This idea was extinguished by Isabella.
...
In Zhizun Villa at the top of Zique Mountain.
Katherine really felt like she was dreaming. Where she stepped on was the place everyone in J
Citywanted to come in.
Roses drifted all over the sky… Beautiful music. Bright and intoxicating red carpet...
In the center of the magnificent lobby, there was a guzheng. A man in a suit was plucking the strings.
Pipa song.
Katherine was so familiar with this melody. It was her favorite song. She had listened to it countless
times.
The tune was familiar, and the figure was also familiar.
Katherine's heartbeat speeded up. She walked very slowly. When she stood behind the man, he just
finished playing Pipa song.
The man got up and turned around.
"It's really you!"
Katherine covered her mouth and exclaimed.
Charlie's eyes were bright. He chuckled, "Why can't it be me? What do you think of Pipa song I played
just now? This is your favorite song. But it is a little sad and not suitable for this scene of great joy."
"But if you like to listen, I can play it for you!"
"I said that I had the key to Zhizun Villa and I wanted to take you around, but you don't believe it. So I
can only use this method to invite you over!"
"I owe you a wedding!"
Katherine's eyes were red. Her throat moved but she couldn't speak.
Charlie stepped forward, wiping off her tears, and said softly, "You have suffered in the past three
years. I'm sorry."
Wow!
Katherine's tears kept falling.
"Why?"
"I have my own difficulties. I can't tell you these things. When the time is right, I will tell you everything."
"You bastard!"
Katherine madly hammered Charlie's chest and cried, "Do you know how uncomfortable I was when I
was ridiculed by those people? Do you know how much I want a man to protect me and spoil me?"
"I know."
"You don't know. You are an idiot. You don't understand anything. Do you know how sad I am when
those people ridicule you and mock you? You are my husband. Why do they scold you? But I'm
useless. I can't help you. I can only watch you being bullied!"
Charlie's lips trembled. His throat seemed to be blocked by a big stone.
He suddenly hugged Katherine tightly.
"Sorry, it was my fault. Everything is over. It's fine now."
Katherine cried thoroughly. The grievances which accumulated over the past three years were vented
at this moment. Charlie was also very touched.
He was an old monster who had gone through both the ancient and modern times. He had lived for five
thousand years. Sometimes he would back the wrong horse.
In the past three years, Katherine had scolded him a lot. She gave him a long face and scolded him.
For a long time, he thought that Katherine was disgusting with him, wanted to kick him away and
wanted to draw a line with him.
But he didn't know that Katherine cared about him.
In fact, Charlie didn't figure it out. Katherine cared about him, so she gave him long face and scolded
him.
If a woman was completely indifferent to you, treated you as a transparent person and completely
ignored you, it would be the real contempt.
A quarter of an hour later, Charlie and Katherine were at the balcony on the top floor of the villa.
Looking far away, J City was colorful and busy in the dark night. Here, Katherine had a feeling that she
could control the overall situation and decide others' fates.
"You gave the bride price?"
"Yes. But there was a little mistake. I was going to give it to you directly, but I didn't expect that it would
be sent to Grandma's birthday party." Charlie said embarrassedly.
Katherine snorted, "This really makes everyone misunderstand deep enough."
Charlie tilted his head and smiled, "You're happy now, aren't you? Those women are still guessing who
can get the bride price and rushing to marry into a rich family, and even taunting you. But they don't
know that you have it all."
"Come on. I don't have time to be jealous with them."
Katherine fluttered her hair, looking so charm. Charlie didn't notice there was a faint smile on the corner
of her mouth.
"You bought Zhizun Villa?"
"To be exact, it was given by someone else."
This made Katherine's heart tremble.
"Be given by others" was more shocking than "bought by himself".
Zhizun Villa was so expensive. It was 180 million dollars. It was not a small amount. The one who could
buy the villa must be a big shot.
Such a big shot gave the villa to Charlie, which was enough to explain Charlie's terrifying identity
background.
"No one believes it. A super young master is willing to marry into a small family and live with her
parents. Besides, he has been bullied for three years. Do you like being bullied by others? Are you so
idle?"
Katherine felt very speechless, rolled her eyes at him and said, "You are the boss behind Chengyu
Group. Sidney is your subordinate. That's why I won the contract so easily. Am I right?"
"No!"
"Huh?" Katherine was surprised.
Charlie's face was serious. He looked at the distance and said faintly, "I am not a super rich young
master, but a lucky brat."
"What do you mean?"
"Three months ago, I accidentally saved a man. I didn't expect that he is a big shot. This villa was given
to me in return for saving his life, and the bride price is the same. Chengyu Group is not mine. But
Sidney is indeed my classmate."
Charlie denied everything.
He was very afraid, afraid of betrayal.
Although the chance of Katherine's betrayal was so small that it could be ignored, Charlie dared not
gamble.
The apprentice who had been with him for ten years also betrayed him!
Before regaining sufficient strength, Charlie warned himself that everything must be cautious.
In fact, he was enough high profile tonight.
If he didn't want to give Katherine a solace, he would never be so high-profile.
"If I were really a super rich young master, I wouldn't let Ewan insult me for three years, unless I was a
fool. Even if I wanted to, the family behind me would not be able to let me be bullied. the Hunt Family
would have been wiped out!"
Katherine frowned and nodded, "It makes sense. But you are really lucky."
"Everything tonight is arranged by the big shot. But the favor is limited. I can't always ask the big shot
to do anything for me. If one day he gets angry, we all will die!"
"Yes, we are ordinary people, so we shouldn't have too much contact with big shots like him. Because
our worlds are different!" Katherine said firmly.
Charlie smiled and said, "Don't worry. I know what I am doing."
Suddenly. Katherine laughed out, "You are a rich man now. With this villa, you are as rich as those big
families in J City."
"Don’t say it out. Once it spreads out, we will have a lot of trouble."
"I know. Don't worry. I won’t tell anyone." Katherine patted her chest and vowed.
"Would you like to sleep here tonight?"
"Of course, it's not easy to come here. I want to experience the life of the rich."
"Sleep together?"
"Get away. Don't think too much."
In the early morning of the next day, they had breakfast together.
Outside the villa, Katherine got on the helicopter. Charlie waved his hand, "You go to the company first.
I have something else to deal with."
"Charlie."
"Yeah?"
Katherine bit her red lips, staring at him, "I believe what you said yesterday. I also know that your
identity is by no means simple. But I won't ask more. Since you didn’t tell me in the past three years, it's
not time, right?"
"When the time is right, I will know everything, right?"
Charlie smiled.
Katherine was always so considerate and gentle, making him extremely comfortable and at easy.
He nodded heavily, "Yes, definitely."
