"Bye, take care on the way." Charlotte replied.
After hanging up the phone, she couldn't help but ask Ricky, "Is there something going on with the Capital?"
Ricky said, "There's a problem in the military district. I heard that there was a traitor inside and the location of the weapons and ammunition depot was exposed. So recently the general is having a headache and is doing his best to move supplies and resources."
"Oh, no wonder. That's a legitimate reason for you to go back, then." Charlotte didn't care what was going on in the army, she didn't know anything about that. What she cared about was that these unforeseen events must not affect her status as the daughter of the powerful Heath family. She was about to marry into one of the richest family in the country.
"Well, I'll leave now. Is it okay if you go home by yourself?" Ricky secretly put his hand over the back of Charlotte's soft hand, somewhat fondly. In fact, he was more worried about whether she would still need him once she had achieved what she wanted.
"Sure. You hurry up and go."
Charlotte's watery eyes at that time shocked his heart once again.
After she sent Ricky away.
Charlotte walked home slowly and alone.
When she opened the door, she noticed that Rodney's shoes were casually kicked around on the carpet, and it looked like Grandpa had come home in quite a hurry.
Because usually Rodney always put the shoes neatly in the entrance. It was some sort of obsessive-compulsive disorder he got from the military.
Charlotte bent down to pick up the shoes and set them up.
Then she went to the kitchen and found that the dinner had not been touched.
Strangely, when Grandpa came home, he didn't eat dinner.
So what's he doing?
Although Rodney was not her real grandfather, he was quite nice to her. She grew up without a family, the warmth the Heath family gave her made her feel much more comfortable, and kind of made up for her childhood regrets.
