Standing there, I could tell that the man was Jeremy Archer without carefully observing him. He was wearing the same clothes as he had worn in the daytime. As the rain fell on him, he, who was thin, seemed to be on the verge of collapse. I said, "Uncle, I've told you that you got the wrong person. How come you found me here? How did you find this place?" I spoke calmly as if I wasn't connected to him. "No, I indeed have nothing to do with me." Walking up to me step by step, Jeremy grabbed my clothes with his hands, "Charlotte, we did everything wrong in the past. After I went home, I told your mother that I had seen you. She insisted that I should take you home for dinner. She even gets the dishes ready." "Could Gina cook?" I wasn't convinced. Gina claimed herself to be a noble lady. She didn't know how to cook at all. How come she could cook after a few years? I doubted that.  Shelton asked me with an umbrella in his hands, "What a

The next morning, the rain stopped. I stood in front of the window on the second floor and opened it. The smell of the wet soil came into my nose, and the asphalt street outside was washed clean by the rain. I couldn't help but want to go out for a walk. I cleaned up and got changed. As soon as I opened the door, I saw Gina and Jeremy sitting at the door of my house! When I opened the door, the two of them stood up. Gina even wanted to walk inside without my permission. "What are you doing?" I put both my hands on the door to block them. Gina looked at me and said with a smile, "Charlotte, have you had breakfast? We brought you breakfast. It's cold out there. Let's go in." I saw a plastic bag in her hand. There was a bowl in it. There seemed to be some thin porridge in the bowl, from which a lot had already been spilled out. "I've told you that I'm not your daughter. I'll call the police if you keep acting like this!" I

Lying there, I heard the ringtone of my cell phone upstairs ringing once. After that, it never rang again. I couldn't be more hopeless. The sounds of the doorbell outside didn't ring either. Only then did Gina continue to clean up the scene. In the end, she arrived at the meeting room. Standing at the door of the meeting room, Gina looked at me. As always, there wasn't any trace of sympathy on her face. Instead, she looked somewhat overjoyed. I knew that she felt overjoyed because she thought that she could get my house and make money with it soon. Gina didn't say a word to me. Of course, I don't have the strength to talk to her anymore. At this time, I couldn't even lift my eyelids. I gradually lost my senses. Feeling cold and listless, I couldn't even move a finger. Lying there, I vaguely heard a noisy voice that seemed to ring outside the door. But I didn't know what on earth had happened. Neither could I care l

Without thinking, I quickly grabbed the towel from Shelton's hand and hung it in front of me. "Turn around and let me check your wound." He did treat me as a patient instead of a woman. As he spoke, he was about to force me to turn around. "No, thanks. I'm all right." I flushed. "You go out first. I'll go out after I wash my hair." At that point, I didn't have the mood to take a shower. "No." Shelton looked serious, and his eyes were full of worry. "Either I help you wash your hair, or you allow me to check your wound now." In the small bathroom, the white fog rising from the hot water had almost dissipated. The more I thought about it, the shyer I became. But Shelton blocked me and did not intend to leave. Watching my face getting redder and redder, he seemed to have finally realized what I was thinking. He quickly draped a big bath towel over my shoulders and said, "I'll get a chair for you. After that, I'll help you wash away the foam on you

"Is that okay?" Shelton walked to my side and looked down at me. Through the transparent glasses, I found that his eyes looked gentle and there was some expectation in them. I looked at him and thought of what had happened. He was really nice to me and Glenn. Although his love was not the vigorous one, he showered me with silent warmth. Perhaps this kind of relationship could live long. I thought for a while and nodded. "Okay. It's up to you." Hearing this, Shelton knelt on one knee and took my hand. His clear eyes were full of joy. "Thank you for handing the rest of your life to me. I will surely give you all my best." "No need." I shook my head. "I'll be contented as long as you stay with us." When I said "we", I meant, of course, me and Glenn. "Hmm, thank you for giving me this opportunity." Looking at him like this, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. "Stand up quickly. It's like you're proposing to me." "
