Whenever he addressed Dolores as “Mrs. Nelson”, Charles felt as if his heart was stung by a bee.
He couldn’t control that feeling, so he could only try his best to hide it.
Maisy thought about it and agreed. She pulled some cash out of her wallet and handed it to her daughter. However, she said to Charles, “Please take Tiana to buy a new phone. I... Accidentally knocked over her cell phone. Since I want to apologize to her, I must make it sincere.”
Right now, when Maisy thought about her actions earlier, she finally how reasonable she was at that time.
She was way too excited, afraid that her daughter had been bullied.
Right now, she felt so embarrassed and disgraced. Her actions didn’t fit her identity at all.
Charles took the money from Tiana’s hands and gave it back to Maisy. “Mom, I have money. Please keep it. In the future, if you need any financial support, please feel free to let me know.”
Alan was an honest and upright man, so he only had his salary as the income. Their family wasn’t rich.
Maisy didn’t take the money over. She felt that she was so wrong about him, and she even suspected him earlier.
“You know my family background. Nathan White wasn’t my biological father, either. He treated me very well and made up to me with the father’s love. However, I’ve never had a loving mother, so I don’t know how to love a mother back. From now on, I’ll try my best to treat Dad and you well. Thank you for trusting me and letting Tiana marry me.”
Charles’s words were from the bottom of his heart. On the other hand, he wanted to tell Maisy that she didn’t need to suspect him in the future.
He was quite good at convincing others, and each of his words poked the sore spot of the Meyer couple. They didn’t have a son, only a daughter. They never expected that their daughter and son-in-law would take care of them in the future. They only wished that after they passed away, there would be someone taking care of their daughter truly.
Hence, Charles’s words moved them a lot.
“All right.” Alan patted Charles on his shoulder. “Tiana is our only daughter, so her mother cares about her a lot. Please don’t take what has happened today to your heart.”
“I won’t. Please trust me from now on. I truly want to take care of Tiana. I don’t hope such a thing would happen in the future.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Maisy chimed in and stated her attitude, “I was way too excited today. I promise this will not happen again in the future.”
“Hurry up and go. Probably you can come back for dinner later,” said Maisy.
