Chapter twenty nine"I apologize for my ignorance; I had no knowledge of your situation. I erroneously assumed that you and your partner had ended things, and perhaps it was you who had broken the relationship off. It saddens me to see that many women have a tendency to discard good men.

However, perhaps he was willing to give this situation a chance, hoping that no one would end up getting hurt in the end."Then," Charlie finally spoke up, his voice tinged with hesitation, "I suppose we could say we're in a contract relationship, capable of ending it whenever we want."

She took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts before responding to his dismissive tone."Mum," Charlie began, his tone laced with impatience. "I think I'm not ready to listen to these old folktales.

Chapter thirty twoMr. Thompson called for a meeting and all attendees were seated as he took a deep breath. His gaze fixed on Charlie."Charlie, I believe you should consider joining the Thompson's group as the vice president, while also contending for the chairman role," Mr. Thompson proposed. However, Charlie seemed reluctant to venture into entrepreneurship on his own.Charlie's voice wavered with determination as he expressed his reluctance.
