"What's there to be proud of?" Emilia was so jealous that her eyes had that lunatic sheen to it. "Mr. Limbaugh gave me a brooch that is worn on the left side of the chest near the heart. What he gave you is just a piece of clothing that can be discarded any time."
"Since it's not that important, why are you so angry?" Margaret smiled.
Emilia felt herself losing control of her temper, but it was eminent that she had her pride protected. "I'm just angry that Mr. Limbaugh was deceived by a b*tch like you."
"Then you should be even angrier that I have the power to deceive him, but you don't." Margaret said as she flipped her long hair as a show of victory in the argument.
"You-"
Charleston stood at the side, smiling to himself as he watched the two women in their heated debate.
He found that he liked his little one jealous.
"Mr. Limbaugh, just look at her. You should teach her a lesson!" Emilia had no choice but to seek Charleston's help.
Charleston stood up and then walked over to Margaret.
He held her fist and kissed it tenderly.
"Only she can teach me a lesson!"
Emilia widened her eyes in shock.
She did not expect Margaret to have such a dominant influence on Charleston to have made him say that.
As like everyone else, Emilia did not believe that Charleston sincerely wanted to be with Margaret.
After all, the disparity gap between the two's status was as wide as the sky and the ocean. It was evident that these words were only used by Mr. Limbaugh and his mistress to flirt with each other, and thus, should not be taken seriously.
However, it was enough to make others jealous!
Charleston was just too fine, and too wealthy of a man. He was handsome, influential, and was just overall a better sight for sore eyes compared to the other rich and powerful men who were balding and sported a beer belly.
Charleston was even fluent in the language of pampering and pleasing his woman.
However, what Emilia was not aware of was that all these great, romantic qualities of Charleston were only for Margaret.
He couldn't be bothered with showing this side of him to anybody else!
