Chapter 79
After Maeve said that, she insisted on moving the durians inside, fearing that Lyra would get mad at Zion.
Lyra was beside herself with anger. If she caught the person who planted such a terrible idea in Zion's head, she would kill them!
"Mavy, please don't get the wrong idea. Zee rarely gets in contact with girls, so he has no idea how to please girls. This definitely isn't his ideal"
"I know."
Maeve knew that Zion would think of giving her durian out of the blue.
Lyra was bewildered. "You knew?"
"It doesn't take a genius to figure out that this has to be Charlie's idea."
Upon hearing Maeve's reminder, Lyra instantly realized what was going on.
Yes, who could've thought of this terrible idea other than Charlie?
At that thought, Lyra instantly flew into a rage. "Hold on, I'll make him pay for this right now!"
Maeve couldn't stop Lyra at all. In her pajamas and slippers, Lyra dashed out the door. Maeve was about to go after Lyra, but unexpectedly, Lyra knocked on the door of the apartment beside theirs.
"Charlie! Come out! Charlie!"
Lyra's voice was too loud. Scratching his messy hair, Charlie opened the door and asked, "Who's causing a ruckus this early in the morning? People need their sleep, for goodness' sake!"
When Charlie opened the door and saw Lyra, he was stunned for a moment. Thinking that he was seeing things, he closed the door and opened it again to see if anything changed. After making sure that the person in front of him was Lyra, Charlie asked in a stammering voice, "W-What brings you here?"
Grabbing Charlie by the ear, Lyra said, "Is this how you teach my brother to flirt with girls? I'm telling you, -the siblings I hoped for get away from me, I'll teach you a lesson you'll never forget!"
"Charlie, shouldn't you give me a proper explanation for the situation right now?"
Maeve leaned against the wall, crossing her arms as she looked at Charlie.
Charlie glanced at Lyra and then at Maeve. Then, he gulped.
Two fierce women were at his door so early in the morning! Was he going to die?
if
Charlie diligently led Maeve and Lyra through the door. The furnishings in Charlle's home looked new, so he must have moved in not long ago.
"Please, have a seat."
Charlie respectfully invited the two to sit on the couch. He was the esteemed CEO of Foster Group, but Chapter 79
with these two women around, he behaved just like a waiter.
Lyra seemed a little guilty and troubled at the fact that she had exposed Charlie's address in her fury,
Charlie sat down opposite Maeve, coughing dryly as he said, "Well, I can explain. Actually, my previous lodging is quite far from Amenam University, so it's not very convenient for the occasional lessons I'm giving to you guys, right? So, when Zion asked me to buy this house for you, I bought one for myself too."
Maeve raised her eyebrow. She refused to believe Charlie's excuse. "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"I just felt that there's no need to mention this..."
With that, Charlie tried his best to signal to Lyra.
Lyra got the message. She began taking Charlie's side as she said to Maeve, "Yes, that's exactly how it happened. You know that Charlie is a lazy person, right? He can't possibly wake up early. This has nothing
to do with Zee at all, really!"
When Charlie heard Lyra saying that, he covered his eyes in exasperation.
It was fine if Lyra didn't say anything, but now that she had said so much, things just became even harder
to explain!
"So Zion asked you to come here to keep an eye on me?"
"No, no! It's not like that at all. Why would my brother want to keep an eye on you? He's just worried that you might be in danger if you live alone. That's why he asked Charlie to move here. It's for convenience and you can also be cared for!"
Lyra revealed everything in one go. Unable to take it anymore, Charlie said, "Lyra, please just keep your
mouth shut!"
