The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 859 Someone Has Found A Place In His Heart 

“Alright then. You guys shouldn’t tire yourselves out either. Take care of your health. Once I’ve passed my exam, I might be going abroad.”

Jasmine was engrossed in sharing her future plans, but Whitney’s mind had already drifted off somewhere else.

After having breakfast, the Newton family’s driver dropped Whitney off at the office.

After entering the office, Whitney headed in the direction of Charles’ office.

Just as Isaac was about to leave with a stack of documents, Whitney stopped him. “Is he in the office now?”

Isaac nodded. “Mr. Newton seems to be in a bad mood. Be careful.”

After giving a piece of advice, Isaac left with the documents in his arms.

Whitney headed straight for the office and knocked on the door.

“It’s me.”

“Come in.”

Charles was holding a fountain pen, diligently writing on some document. Whitney knew better than to interrupt, and quietly waited for him to finish.

After about ten minutes, Charles finally looked up, pinched the bridge of his nose and asked, “What are you doing here?”

His voice regained its calm and indifference like before.

Whitney suppressed the discomfort in her heart as she smiled and said, “I was worried about your health, so I wanted to come and see you.”

“Are you done?”

Charles didn’t lift his head, his gaze remained fixed on the documents in front of him. His brows and eyes looked serious, and his tone indifferent.

He seemed to be urging Whitney to leave.

Whitney didn’t understand.

It was understandable for him to have such an attitude yesterday. Why is he still like this today)

She couldn’t hold back any longer and asked the question that had been weighing on her heart.

“During the time you lived in the fishing village… was it that girl who took care of you? What… what’s her name?”

As she asked the question, Whitney’s heart pounded rapidly, her palms clenched as she was nervous. She carefully observed Charles’ expression.
