The Cherished Wife



Charles left without looking back, leaving Clarisse standing pale-faced at his office door. "Charlie, is this really how you treat your mother?" Unfortunately, Charles did not answer.

The security guards felt confused, but since Charles was Collosus Group's big boss, his words were like law. They were paid to do their job, so they naturally followed Charles' orders.

"Ma'am, please leave with this young lady. This is a company, and we can't let outsiders in freely."

"Am I an outsider? I'm Mr. Hoffman's mother!"

"But you're not a Collosus Group employee!"

J felt utterly humiliated. When had she ever not been the center of attention? In Capiton, which rich young man did not treat her kindly? The Baker family members all adored her like a treasure.

This was the first time J felt so embarrassed, especially since the person humiliating her was the man she liked so much.

J's eyes quickly reddened as she grabbed Clarisse's hand. "Aunt Clary, what should I do? Charles seems to hate me. What if he doesn't like me and won't marry me?"

Clarisse also felt a headache coming on. Facing her son's powerful presence, she felt helpless. However, looking at J's pitiful state, she felt conflicted.

J had been raised by her side since childhood. When had she ever suffered such humiliation?

Clarisse had always been aware of J's feelings for Charles, and J was indeed a very good woman.

There was no blood relation between them, so Clarisse fully supported the relationship between Charles and J.

Of course, there was another reason, and that was because of Kelly.

daughter-in-law Mateo wanted for Charles, so she strongly opposed Coincidentally, when Clarisse learned J also liked Charles, she enthusiastically supported J's pursuit of him.

However, Clarisse had misjudged the situation. She never imagined such a scene would unfold back then.

"J, I'm on your side. Charlie's just angry with me, and that's why he doesn't want to be with you. Don't worry, I promised to help you, and I won't go back on my word.

"Besides, Kelly is out of the picture now. Even if she returns, she won't be a threat to you. Charlie marrying you is just a matter of time." After consoling J, Clarisse left with her.

Becky, who had been standing behind Clarisse and J throughout, was shocked. Her

Was this J woman not supposed to be Mr. Hoffman's uncle's daughter? How could she like Charles?

"What are you thinking about?"

Ronald frowned, seeing Becky standing there dumbfounded with her mouth open. "The meeting is about to start. Have you prepared the materials Mr. Hoffman requested?"

"Ah, oh no!" Becky suddenly realized. "I haven't finished making copies. Mr. Wells, what should I do?"

"Hurry up and go!" Ronald massaged his temples, feeling a headache coming on. "Where are the documents? Give me some first!"
