Master Charlie Was Tricked By A Woman

Chapter 25: A Coincidental Encounter in a Restaurant?



Mrs Casey really didn’t expect her son, who had always been good and obedient, to deceive her, which was more sad than anything else in her heart. But the son is her own, no matter what is not the son’s fault then it must be the woman next to the ghost!

Just an hour ago.

Shireen Miller had come to the Charlie family, and Mrs Casey knew why she had come. Wasn’t it because of her own son? She was very happy with Shireen Miller as her daughter-in-law. She was a good-looking, sweet-talking woman with a good family background, and she was a good match for her family’s York.

Plus, she was lonely at home, and Shireen Miller’s visits to her made her feel very close to her. So she decided to give Shireen Miller a hand and try to get this daughter-in-law home.

Tonight when Shireen Miller comes over she makes a phone call to ask York to come home for dinner. But York Charlie said he had to work overtime and was unavailable, which Mrs. Casey took for granted: everyone knew that the two men in her family were busy as gyroscopes all day long.

So she smiled apologetically towards Shireen Miller, “York is working late again tonight. Let’s eat by ourselves then, don’t worry about him.”

Shireen Miller was as good as ever: “Auntie, since York won’t be home today, why don’t I take you out to eat? I know a newly opened restaurant in AYTON ROAD, the view is quite nice and the flavour is also very good. I wanted to go with you and York. But York is busy. I’ve booked the restaurant, so I can’t waste it, why don’t we go together?”

“Aigoo, you silly child, you know too much. You can just take your friends to a restaurant like this, why would you take an old woman like me.” Although very happy, Mrs. Casey still modestly excuses herself. What kind of scenery had Mrs. Casey never seen? What kind of western food had she not eaten? It was Shireen Miller’s filial piety that made her think of all the good things she could do!

“Auntie, this western restaurant called Midsummer love is recently opened. But the reputation is very good.” When they first arrived at the restaurant, the two of them looked at the beautiful scenery next to them and were still raving about it.

Shireen Miller thought to herself that although it was a bit of a pity that she didn’t get to have dinner with York Charlie this time, it wasn’t without any gain. At least Mrs. Casey was growing on her, wasn’t she?

Could she be any closer to being Mrs Charlie if she pleased her mother-in-law?

With this in mind, Shireen Miller became even more solicitous of Mrs. Casey’s unobtrusive favours.

But she suddenly turned pale when she was about to go to the table, “Shireen, what’s the matter with you? Why do you suddenly look so pale?” Mrs. Casey asked worriedly when she sensed something wrong with her.

Seeing that she looked as if she had been given a legal hold on her body, she couldn’t help but look over in the direction she was staring at.

“This, this isn’t York, Shireen, am I seeing this right?” Mrs. Casey whimpered out in shock.

“Auntie you’re not mistaken.” Shireen Miller’s voice got a little choked up, “That man is York. and I saw Miss Capra next to him coming out of his house last time.”

Shireen Miller’s teary-eyed look did not know how much it hurt Mrs. Casey, so she immediately consoled Shireen Miller, “Shireen, don’t worry. Auntie will definitely not let that woman in the door of the Charlie family. In Auntie’s heart, this position has always been yours. It must be that woman who seduced York, come on, let’s go over and take a look.”

Shireen Miller then gathered her emotions and followed Mrs. Casey.

That’s how the scene just now came about.

York Charlie was surprised and then reflexively thought of Shireen Miller, so he looked at Shireen Miller sharply: “It’s you again, isn’t it? You sent someone to follow me?”

This is really wronged Shireen Miller, she originally just wanted to go to the Charlie family to pay her respects, who knew that things would happen into this situation?

Shireen Miller heart is still angry teeth itchy: who knows so half a day Blanche Capra and York’s soul to hook away?

But York Charlie was looking at her with such a fierce gaze that she looked at Mrs. Casey with resignation, hoping that Mrs. Casey would do her a good job of making Blanche Capra look bad.

As expected, Mrs. Casey was very upset when she heard York Charlie’s words, “York, why are you so mean, Shireen came here to invite us for dinner today. Who knew that you would bring your little lover who also happened to come to this restaurant?”

After saying that, she asked the waiter to add two more chairs to this table in a reverse manner and sat herself down.

“Miss Capra right?” Taking a sip of water, Mrs. Casey aimed her salvo at Blanche Capra.

“Hello, Mrs. Casey,” despite knowing that Mrs. Casey was going to lash out, her upbringing prevented her from losing her manners.

“Can’t afford to be called your son’s aunt. I heard that Miss Capra works as a model?” In fact, Mrs Casey had already known that there was such a person as Blanche Capra, Shireen Miller had tried to hide her at first, the noise was so big that people with background would know what was going on after a little investigation.

After the question, Mrs. Casey didn’t wait for Blanche Capra to answer, she went on to say, “I’ve heard that modelling is a youthful business. When I saw Miss Capra today, I know this is true. She really has a beautiful face. However, the children of rich families, especially those like our York, will surely marry famous women like Shireen in the future. Anything like a small model or a small star, at best, it’s just like keeping a mistress. Miss Capra, what I mean, do you understand?”

“Mum~, what are you doing? I …”

“You shut up, I’m asking about Miss Capra now,” York Charlie was interrupted by Mrs. Casey before she could finish her sentence.

Everything he had wanted to say in Blanche Capra’s defence was dead in the water.

Of course Blanche Capra knew what Mrs. Casey meant, wasn’t it a sarcastic comment about her being a model with no status and not being able to get into the limelight?

Blanche Capra would have thrown red wine on York Charlie and walked out without looking back.

But then she saw Shireen Miller’s smug, jealous stare and suddenly changed her mind.

She lifted the corners of her lips, the cutting of the steak in her hand continuing, her voice growing softer and softer.

“Of course I understand what Mrs. Casey means, but it’s better to be a favoured mistress than a proper wife with no affection, let alone favour, from a wealthy family.” Mrs. Casey would not let her call her Auntie, and she would call her that. The more she phased herself, the happier Blanche Capra was!

Mrs. Casey was trembling with anger: she had been Mrs. Charlie for years, and it was the first time she had ever met anyone who had been so cross with her!

Blanche Capra, however, is not aware of it, and she passes the cut steak to York Charlie in a very natural movement, deliberately pouting, “Nah~ courtesy. Ah~ Hurry up and open your mouth.”

Shireen Miller’s hand on her knee is almost ready to turn her skirt into a rag!

Candlelight dinners, feeding each other food, all of this was something she, Shireen Miller, had never enjoyed! Why should Blanche Capra? Why?

When she saw that York Charlie had actually obediently eaten the piece of beef that had been fed to her, the smile that Shireen Miller was trying to keep on her face froze, and she grimaced as if she wanted to eat Blanche Capra.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
