Chapter 633 Did He Accept It?
Giving Francis something was just a cover. Next week, Charlotte could use the chance to visit Maya again.
Charlotte figured that since she was so gorgeous and could help Jeffery with chores, if she could win over Maya's employers, her future would be set. Mr. Blake was the wealthiest guy in Maple Valley, and his opinion mattered. If the couple didn't like Charlotte, all her efforts would be for nothing.
The best way to win over a couple is to win over their kid; that saying is spot on.
Jane was giving Maya a full-body checkup in her room.
Earlier, she had told Charlotte she was there to give Maya a full-body checkup and didn't mention her connection to Jeffery.
Even though Jane specialized in gynecology, she knew a bit about general health care, so giving a friend a checkup was no big deal.
"What do you think of this, Charlotte? She's quite pretty," Maya said, treating Jane like a buddy.
"She is pretty, with those slightly upturned eyes. Those eyes are super seductive, no guy can resist them," Jane said sincerely, as if complimenting Charlotte's looks.
Maya's smile instantly froze.
Seductive eyes that no guy can resist.
What mother-in-law would want a daughter-in-law like that?
"Charlotte's family background is pretty good. Maya, you can relax; you won't need to buy a house for Jeffery," Jane added. "Buying a house for Jeffery would cost you a ton."
Maya's face turned even more sour.
Not needing to buy a house meant Jeffery would have to marry into someone else's family?
Maya was kind of old-fashioned. She only had one son, Jeffery. If he married into another family, what would happen to their family's reputation?
These two points alone were almost deal-breakers; Maya would never agree.
Jane continued to check Maya with simple instruments.
Suddenly, her phone buzzed. It was a message from Chloe: [Come out, Charles is here.]
Charles had indeed arrived.
Charlotte was a bit surprised to see Charles.
"It's you? Old man?" Charlotte said in surprise.
"You two know each other?" Donovan pretended not to know and asked them.
"Yeah, she crashed into my car. What are you doing here?" Charles sat on the sofa closest to Charlotte.
"I'm here to see Maya. Her son, Jeffery, is my boyfriend," Charlotte said with a smile.
Charles seemed to have a sudden realization. "So we're all acquaintances. I see."
"And you?"
"Mr. Blake is my classmate. I'm his subordinate."
Charlotte nodded, thinking: If Charles mentioned that incident first, her image in Mr. Blake's eyes would worsen. So she put on a smile and said to Charles, "Old man, it was totally my fault that day. I was wrong."
"Learned to apologize?"
Charlotte thought: I'll just put on a show in front of this old man; I'll deal with any issues later.
Charles noticed that Charlotte looked even more beautiful today than she did that day. Her face was brighter, and she stood taller. Any man would be attracted to her, and he felt his body stiffen a bit.
He had never experienced what Donovan felt, and he wanted to try it.
"Did your boyfriend accept the underwear you gave him?" Charles asked her.
