The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 4489

Having said that, Marianne said with some sadness, "Everything here is the same as it was before aside from the fact that they are old now, I have already grown up, and my mother is no longer here."

When Charlie saw that Marianne was a little depressed, he pretended to be relaxed as he said in a light-hearted manner, “My parents passed away very early. After they left, I became an orphan, and I lived in an orphanage for ten years. In comparison, your situation is still much better and happier."

"You're an orphan?!" Marianne looked at Charlie in surprise with a look of disbelief.

Charlie nodded and said, “I was probably the happiest child in the world before I was eight years old. I fell from the highest to the lowest point in my life overnight. After that, I struggled all the way until today."

Marianne exclaimed, "You're so young, but you're actually holding a key position in Ito -Schulz Ocean Shipping Group... This proves that you still have very strong personal abilities!"

"Is that so?" Charlie scratched his head in mild embarrassment and smiled as he

said, "Haha, that does seem to be the case."

He could not tell Marianne that he was actually the big boss with the most shares in Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group.

At this time, many middle-aged people quickly walked toward the two with smiles on their faces.

The leader was Mr. Norman from earlier.

He was holding a big box, and neither

Marianne nor Charlie knew what was inside.

When everyone came to the both of them, Mr. Norman smiled and said, "Happy birthday, Miss Marianne!"

Having said that, Mr. Callen, who was next to him, quickly opened the lid of the big box. It turned out to be a beautiful birthday cake inside.

Everyone cheered and said in unison," Happy birthday, Miss Marianne!"

Everyone hurriedly urged Marianne to make a wish and blow out the candles.

Marianne looked at Charlie, closed her eyes, and made a silent wish. After that, she blew out the candles in front of

everyone.

Everyone cheered again and then served Marianne and Charlie with a dish or snack of their own. As each portion of the dish and snack were all small, Mr. Callen said to them, "Miss Marianne, we know that you do not like to waste. So, we prepared a small amount for each serving. Just let us know if there is not enough, and we will prepare more for the both of you!"

Marianne said with flushed red eyes," Thank you, everyone. You're all so thoughtful. You actually remembered my birthday..."

Mr. Callen smiled and said, “That’s how it should be, Miss Marianne. Let me say something on everyone's behalf. In our eyes, you're just like our own daughter!"

Having said that, he hurriedly said to everyone, "Let's disperse now! Don't disturb Miss Marianne's time alone with her boyfriend!"
