"Not with that man," he confessed, his tone unsparing. The thought of sharing the same roof as someone who had caused him discomfort was enough to deter him from staying. Determined to seek solace elsewhere, he firmly added, "I am not going to get a good sleep being under the same roof with him.

If you don't remarry, you might not be considered the rightful heir. You've worked tirelessly to shake off that label, my dear, and I worry about the challenges you might face ahead." Her voice conveyed both her love for him and the weight of her concerns."I don't know what to do with your husband," he spat out, his anger evident through the phone line.

The Unexpected Heir A Viable Solution
Chapter Twenty three"I will die this," she said, her voice laced with a stern warning. "But if you both misbehave again, I will report this to your dad. I heard you both didn't tag along with your date, claiming you are out of their league and didn't bother to get to know them better."Charlie's mind reeled with disbelief at his mother's words. He struggled to comprehend the level of lies and exaggeration she was spewing. While they may have made light-hearted jokes or playful banter during the date, they never mentioned being out of anyone's league. It was all in good fun.Yet, despite the distorted reality his mother was presenting, Charlie knew there was no use arguing or correcting her. It seemed that no matter what they said or did, she was determined to maintain her version of events."Mum, can you just please stop with the whole dating stuff for now?" he pleaded, his voice tinged with vulnerability.

Was she your ex-wife?"Shaking his head in denial, he responded, "No, that's Fiona, my sister and the eldest daughter of our family."She tried to mask her discomfort with a forced smile and remarked, "Ah, I see. It seemed like she was casting a skeptical gaze my way, perhaps thinking I intended to snatch her little brother away." A smile played on Charlie's lips in response."Don't worry about that," he reassured her, his voice calm and soothing.
