A Vengeful Girl

Chapter 455 What Did You Call Me

"There is nothing we can do to settle this long-running family feud. Don't beat yourself up over this, "

Charles told Linda while gently stroking her hair.

Linda positioned her head cozily on Charles's lap while having a nice little chat with him.

Paul didn't want to bother them upon seeing that sweet scene, so he went out. Linda hadn't spent

much Charles for a while because he was too busy. And absence did make the heart grow fonder.

"Honey, our babies are coming. Have you thought about what their names would be? We are going to

have twins!" Linda was brimming with happiness as she thought of her babies, yet she was also

worried. It was already nerve wracking to have one baby coming because raising a child well wasn't an

easy job, but she was expecting twins! She wondered which baby would get a peek of the world first.

No matter who came out first, Linda and Charles would love him or her as equally as the younger one

for they were both their beloved babies.

"We don't have to rush it. Their names can be chosen after they would be born. When that time comes,

we also need to consult our parents and our genealogy for their names. How about we give them pet

names first?" Charles said as he grinned. He was glowing with parental love at the mention of his

twins.

Perhaps, he was more eager than Linda to see them. That's why he was busy dealing with company

affairs these days. In this way, he would be able to stay with Linda when she would be in labor and

accompany her after the babies were born. He wanted to give her the greatest sense of security.

It was said that postpartum depression was pretty common after delivery, so he wanted to make sure

that Linda wouldn't catch the emotional blues.

As for the pet names of their children, they still wanted to give it another thought.

After all, their pet names would probably follow them all through their childhood. What if they were no

good and their twins would blame them for their lame names?

Charles patted Linda's hand and said to her while she still seemed to be deep in thought, "Linda, I can't

stay with you tomorrow night. Take care of yourself while I'm away."

Linda squinted at him and asked, "Where will you be?"

"There is going to be a jewelry auction in ZJ Province tomorrow night. I'm going to have a look."

Linda felt that something was off. It was quite strange, for Charles wasn't the kind of man who liked to

take part in such spectacle. Yet, she didn't ask him for more information as jewelry didn't interest her.

"I could finish all the things I have on hand by next week. Then, I will accompany you every day at

home, all right?" Charles could feel that Linda was upset by his former answer, so he told her this

immediately to cheer her up. Now that Linda had his twins in her womb, he would literally do everything

to make her happy.

In fact, whether she was having his twins or not, she was still one of his precious treasures. He would

treat her with equal love and care.

People said that daughters were the dearest loves of their dads in their another lives. Therefore, the

profoundest love from a man for a woman was to pamper her as his daughter. That was how Charles

loved Linda.

Linda had been pretty tired these days due to her pregnancy. She even fell asleep on Charles's lap

during their short chat, which he found both funny and heartbreaking.

He carried her to the bed. He could feel her obvious change in weight after pregnancy. She had gained

a lot of weight, appearing as a plumper and chubbier woman. Comparing her now with her former

state, Charles liked this Linda best, for she was too skinny before.

Charles too fell into a sound sleep with Linda, the dearest love of his life, in his arms. She was the only

person who could give him a peaceful sleep as long as she was breathing around him. He wanted to

be with her till death would part them.

By the time Linda woke up the next morning, Charles had already left. Although the jewelry auction

would only kick off in the afternoon, he still arrived early in ZJ Province in the morning.

Apart from this auction, Charles had arranged a few meals together with the long-term business

partners of the Mu's Group to discuss future cooperation matters.

"Young Master, I have arranged a car for you. We'll arrive at our hotel in ZJ Province in two hours, "

Paul told Charles politely.

"Okay, let's go!"

"Erm… Young Master…" Paul seemed to have something to say.

Charles couldn't help but knit a frown on his face as if he already knew what Paul was going to say. "If

you have something to say, just say it. You know how I feel about beating around the bush."

"It's just that… Sophia will also be attending this jewelry auction. Should we go together with her?"

"How come she's invited?"

Charles knew that all of the elites in the world of business were invited. But he never heard of any

female stars who were also invited.

"It's like this... It's true that only successful business men were invited to attend this auction, and they

didn't technically invite Sophia. But she is the appointed singer for the opening ceremony, so she would

also be there."

"She can go there by herself. I don't have to go with her. She is only one of the employees of my

company, " Charles said flatly with no tinge of expression on his face. He glanced at the time and

strode downstairs when they were about to leave. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Paul was not surprised by Charles's answer. That was why he had turned down Sophia's agent who

directly went to him this morning to ask him if Sophia could go to ZJ Province with Charles. He already

knew that the Charles would never go together with Sophia.

He only asked him because Sophia's agent requested him to.

When they reached the parking lot, Charles was ready to get on his car when he saw a woman waiting

near the car.

In a daring sleeveless top and short shorts, the woman wore high heels and sunglasses; her hair hung

loosely on her shoulders. She exuded an air of sex appeal.

"Charles, here you are. I have waited you for a long time."

Sophia missed a heartbeat upon seeing Charles, and she couldn't restrain her excitement. Her

heartbeat always quickened with him around.

She had vowed to get Charles to be with her, for he was such a capable and successful man.

"What did you call me?"

Charles looked at her with a serious frown.

"Charles. What's wrong with that?" Sophia was playing dumb. How could she not notice his frown? But

she wanted to approach him; so to achieve that, she had to play some tricks. Even if Charles was a

cold-hearted person, she believed that she could be able to warm him up as time went by.
