Chapter 58
Having said that, Charlotte and Cecelia followed Ralph to the special living room on the first floor where outsiders were received.
Not long after, a line of young officers fishtailed in.
Standing straight in a line, they all wore their green military uniform with a beret. There was also a star on their shoulder. They must all be newly promoted to the rank of second lieutenant.
The young men all tightened up when they saw the family.
Ralph reached out and said to Charlotte, “You choose.”
Charlotte nodded, “Good.”
She gently took a few steps forward. The hand-embroidered dress on her body fluttered gently as she walked. Her long, curly hair swayed along from side to side.
She looked just mild and sweet, to begin with. There seemed to be tears in her crystal clear almond eyes. She looked just as pure as a fair.
These officers’ eyes all flashed with amazement.
They all felt excited. What a fool they must be if they did not want such a chance to stay next to such a beautiful lady every day?
Charlotte looked over each one. She had been very good at it, but still, she had her own standards for her judgment.
Finally, she stopped in front of an extremely tall man with thick eyebrows and stern features.
He was not the most handsome of these people, nor was he the most experienced one. Certainly, he did not seem to be very smart. However, she saw in his eyes a naked desire, a desire for her, like a wild animal.
Although he hid it well, she still saw it. Maybe they were all of the same kind.
His greed, ambition, and viciousness all made him an easier tool for her to use. No one among them could be better.
“Just him.” Charlotte flashed a lightly seductive smile at him.
“Thank you, Miss! My name is Ricky Middleton!” Ricky stood at attention and saluted, his voice slightly agitated.
Ralph frowned slightly but didn’t say anything.
Among these people, Ricky was the last one he would choose. He could not see through him, but still, he was a good hand. Now since his daughter chose him, he better just let her be.
“Ricky stays, and the rest of you return with me.”
With a flutter of his long sleeves, Ralph led a group of newly promoted officers and left in unison.
In front of the villa, Ralph got into the general’s exclusive bulletproof military car.
The rest of the officers got into military trucks and the car drove away from the villa with a lot of noise.
For those who didn’t know, they might think something was going on and military exercises might be taking place.
Cecelia arranged a guest room in the backyard for Ricky.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
“Ricky, I’m counting on you for my daughter’s safety from now on.” Cecelia smiled, “Tell me directly what you need, you are welcome.”
“Thank you, ma’am!” Ricky saluted respectfully and turned to Charlotte again, his dark eyes crystal clear, “Thank you for your appreciation, Miss.”
Charlotte lightly lifted her jaw, revealing a seductive smile, the tips of her long, thin eyes slightly raised.
Ricky fell for her in no time.
“You go ahead and go down.” Cecelia waved her hand and gestured for Ricky to back off.
“Yes, ma’am.” Ricky retired respectfully, stealing glances at Charlotte from the corner of his eyes every now and then.
“Mom, let’s go inside, and not catch a cold.” Charlotte warmly came forward to hold Cecelia, and the two walked into the house together.
“Mmm.” Her daughter’s thoughtfulness was her greatest comfort. Having lost her daughter for 20 years, she owed her child so much.
When she arrived in the living room, Charlotte pressed Cecelia down on the sofa and said, “Mom, you must be tired after a long day, let me give your shoulders a massage.” She is the best at pleasing people, and this worked everywhere.
