The Charismatic Charlie Wade - Season 9 Episode 3

Mrs. Lewis sighed, “It was my job to take you off the street and into the orphanage, but you don’t have the obligation to take care of me and pay for the expensive medical bills. Besides, I know very well how your life in the Wilson family is…”

Then, she continued, “Don’t worry, Charlie, I’ll find a way to pay you back.”

Charlie was moved. Mrs. Lewis had really treated him as her own son and cared so much about him.

He said in a sincere tone, “Mrs. Lewis, you don’t have to worry about the money nor pay me back either.”

“No, I can’t do that! It is a lot of money, I have to repay you!”

“No, Mrs. Lewis. I’ll always remember your kindness towards me. It’s my duty to spend money on your treatment. If you still insist on paying me back, you’re treating me as a stranger and I might not want to see you again!”

Mrs. Lewis smiled warmly at his remark, but she knew that she couldn’t accept his money just like that. She would return the money to him no matter what he said.

But, she said on the phone, “Since you’re an adult now, I’ll listen to you. By the way, how are you and Claire doing?”

Mrs. Lewis was quite concerned about them as she remembered how delicate and unusual their relationship was.

She knew that Charlie had married her for some special reason and the couple didn’t seem to be very intimate or close, but she always felt that they were a match made in heaven.

Therefore, she wholeheartedly prayed that they could develop feelings towards each other, have a child together, and live happily ever after.

Charlie chuckled rather awkwardly and said, “Claire and I are doing fine. When you come back, I’ll bring her along when I pick you up!”

Mrs. Lewis heaved a sigh of relief. “Hey, hurry up and get Claire pregnant! You guys aren’t young anymore, it’s time for you to have a baby. Listen to me, your relationship will improve tremendously when you have a baby!”

Charlie, on the other hand, sighed dejectedly. He couldn’t even sleep in the same bed with Claire yet, so it was a little too early to want children now, wasn’t it?

But, of course, he couldn’t be truthful about it, so he smiled and said instead, “Yes, I know. Don’t worry, we’ll think about it.”

“Good, good! Hey, I can’t talk now, the nurse is urging me to hang up and get some rest.”

“Okay. Remember to inform me when you return to Aurous Hill!”

“I will! Bye now!”

They ended the call.

Meanwhile, Elaine arrived at the nearby Citibank branch. She went straight to the ATM while holding the black card.

She felt that Charlie wouldn’t have a lot of money in his card, so it wasn’t necessary for her to do the transaction over the counter. She could simply do the transaction on the machine and transfer the

money to her card.

She inserted the black card into the machine and the interface immediately prompted, “Hello, honorable Citibank Supreme VIP member, it is a great honor to serve you. Please enter your black card password.”

Elaine snorted, “What the heck, Supreme VIP my ass! When I had two million in my card, the Industrial and Commercial Bank had also called me their wealth management VIP customer!”

She stretched her fingers and attempted her mission—testing the password. She felt quite confident and fearless after successfully trying out Jacob’s phone password.

She pondered the possibilities. “Hmm, Charlie the loser is quite fond of my girl, perhaps the password is her birthday.”

So, she directly entered Claire’s birthday.

Then, the screen prompted, “Hello, honorable Citibank Supreme VIP member, the password is incorrect, you have 2 more attempts today.”

“Wrong password?”

Elaine was stunned for a moment, then yelled, “Damn you, Charlie. You always say how much you love my girl, but you didn’t even set her birthday as your card password! Look at fucking Jacob, he even set the birthday of his lover from twenty-something years ago as his phone password!”

Then, she frowned and muttered, “Their wedding anniversary, maybe?”
