Chapter 43 A Burden

• Hearing Charles, Emily was dumbfounded. He was just joking, right? But what if not? Nobody really knows this man. God gave him the most gorgeous look that every woman dreamt of at night, yet he was the coldest, most intimidating, harshest, and worst of all, a pervert!
• Emily had always looked up to a certain celebrity as her idol and had admired him for a long time. But when she finally met him, she realized that he was not the man she had imagined him to be. As of the moment, Charles, as she discovered, was no different from any other man, and she was disappointed to learn that he was likely to become like her own father- shamelessly abandoning her and her mother for his mistress and another daughter. This traumatic event left Emily feeling distant from men, especially those who showed an interest in her. She did not want to risk losing everything for the sake of love, and she certainly did not want to become a mistress.
• "Young master, you can’t be serious! Kissing your brother's fiancée is a serious crime and should not be tolerated. I urge you to refrain from such actions. Don’t you think?" Emily was taken aback by what she said, but it was already too late to retract her words. In her distress, she had hoped that it might make him stop, but she ended up spilling the beans accidentally. Charles would never tolerate anyone using his brother against him or taking advantage of his name, regardless of the situation.
