The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Chapter 5427

Seeing Cindy’s confident expression, Maria felt a weight lift off her shoulders.

Glancing at the clock, Maria spoke, “My lord, it’s nearly eight o’clock now. When do you plan on heading home?”

Cindy replied, “My father-in-law usually leaves for the Painting and Calligraphy Association around nine o’clock, which is quite far from my place. Miss Clark doesn’t need to see me off; the helicopter is too noisy in the downtown area. I can manage on my own.”

Maria insisted, “Young Master, I can’t let you go back alone. I’ll drive you home myself.”

Cindy waved her off, saying, “It’s really not necessary. I can handle it on my own.”

Softly, Maria implored, “If you just leave like that, passing by the courtyard below, the servants will see you leaving my quarters early in the morning. They might misunderstand…”

Cindy felt uneasy, asking, “Then what does Miss Clark suggest?”

Maria assured him, “Give me a moment, and I’ll make the arrangements.”

Cindy nodded, saying, “Please, take your time.”

With a happy smile, Maria picked up her phone and made a call. “Marius, come up here.”

Curious, Cindy asked, “Is this Marius the one you called Grandpa in Northern Europe?”

Blushing, Maria replied shyly, “My lord, please forgive me. In the past, I had to pretend that Marius was my grandfather, so people wouldn’t suspect…”

Cindy waved it off, inquiring, “He’s actually your adopted orphan, right?”
