The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Vera wanted to build a good relationship with Marianne, so she took the initiative to accompany Marianne to Aurous University to sign the contract, but she did not expect that Marianne would want to come to Thompson First after signing the contract. This decision really shocked her.

Although Vera had come to Aurous Hill in order to find Charlie, she was not ready to meet Charlie at the moment, so she was absolutely unwilling to come to Thompson First.

Fortunately, the back row of the SUV was covered with privacy tinting, so she stayed in the car and waited for Marianne, using the excuse that she was a little unwell.

After Marianne had gotten out of the elevator, Madam Marilyn opened the sliding door on the right side of the back of the car. Marianne got into the car and said to the two with a smile, "Sorry to keep the both of you waiting. Let's go."

Vera heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "It wasn't that long, it was just five to six minutes."noveldrama

Marianne nodded and asked her with concern, "Didn't you have a stomach ache just now? How are you feeling now?"

Vera hurriedly said, "I'm already feeling much better. I should be fine."

Marianne said with a smile, "Perhaps it's because your period is coming soon. When do you usually have your period?"

Vera said slightly embarrassedly, "My... My period usually starts during these couple of days of every month..."

"No wonder." Marianne looked as if she understood Vera's pain and said with a smile, "You have to drink more hot water today to avoid catching a cold. You should also avoid strenuous exercise."

"Okay." Vera quickly agreed and then said to Madam Marilyn, "Madam Marilyn, let's go back quickly. I'm already hungry."

Madam Marilyn nodded and said with a smile, "It only takes about ten minutes for us to go back. We can eat when we get home."

With that said, she drove the SUV and was about to drive out of the underground parking lot.

Charlie had already parked the BMW in an empty parking space not far in front of the SUV. Since Hiroshi had not bought a rightful parking space when he had bought the house, Charlie could only park the car at the specially designated temporary parking lots.

The biggest disadvantage of the temporary parking lots was that it was generally far away from the entrance of the elevator.

So, after he had parked the car, Charlie and Nanako followed the signs in the underground parking lot to find the location of the elevator.

Charlie had lived in Thompson First for a long time, but today was his first time being in the underground parking lot in the high-rise area. It was also Nanako's first time coming to Thompson First, so neither of them were familiar with this route and could only search according to the address and building number indicated by Hiroshi.

The two of them happened to come face to face with the SUV driven by Madam Marilyn when they walked toward the elevator at the side.

Although the interior of the car was very dark, making it impossible for one to see what was inside, it was still very clear to look out from inside the car.

Marianne saw Charlie walking toward her with Nanako by his side at a glance, so she was startled and cried out in surprise because she had never dreamt that she would run into Charlie.

Vera was relieved because Madam

Marilyn was about to drive away, but when Marianne, who was beside her, suddenly exclaimed out loud, Vera, who had been tensed the whole time, was also shocked.

She was just about to ask Marianne what was wrong when she looked in the direction of Marianne's gaze the next moment and saw Charlie walking with Nanako by his side.

Vera had a horrified look on her face as she closed her mouth immediately. She subconsciously covered her mouth and nose with her hands out of fear that she would be discovered by Charlie.

She felt that she could not let Charlie find her no matter what it was.

Madam Marilyn had already driven past Charlie, and outside the car, Charlie subconsciously pulled Nanako so that she would be hidden behind him so that she would not get hit by the car.

The two women in the SUV could see Charlie's thoughtful gesture very clearly. Madam Marilyn subconsciously asked, "Miss Marianne, is something wrong?"

Marianne subconsciously shook her head. She could not help but look at Charlie's back as she said unnaturally, "Madam Marilyn, please drive quickly. I'm hungry too..."

Meanwhile, Charlie, who was

standing next to Nanako, suddenly felt something vibrating in his pocket again. He subconsciously touched his pocket with his hand, frowned slightly, and thought to himself, 'Strange... why is this broken ring vibrating again?'
