Chapter 289 Charles's Identity Exposed
"Is Charles stay with Savannah?" Rhett, the lawyer, wasn't easy to fool. "The whole of Zelphoria is talking about his broken engagement. What's he up to now?"
Lorenzo's thin lips pressed tightly together. "Not sure, but he said Savannah is his girlfriend."
"What?" The group was agitated.
"Why did he do that?"
"Pentti, tell us, what is your boss thinking? How did Savannah become his girlfriend?"
Everyone's attention turned to Pentti.
As the youngest brother, Pentti hadn't spoken since earlier; he was busy searching for plane tickets.
Now that Savannah had been found, as her brother, he had to be the first to pick her up!
The stylist was still marveling at his skin. "Mr. Vanderbilt, your face looks amazing with stage makeup."
Pentti asked cheerfully, "Clio Webb, what do girls like these days? I want to surprise our little darling!"Clio was speechless at his excitement.
Pentti didn't care about him, typing forcefully: [Lorenzo, Savannah is still young. It's fine if this engagement is off. My boss is too arrogant.]
Clio thought, 'How did I end up with someone who complains about the boss behind his back? Wait, what kind of group is this?'
Seeing Clio leaning in, Pentti instinctively shielded his phone.
Ralph spoke up, "Indeed, it should be called off. If Charles is sincere, he should show it. The engagement is broken; what does he want?"
"I'll discuss it with Grandpa." Lorenzo felt a bit uneasy hearing that Savannah had been jilted.
"Also, tell Savannah not to be afraid. Although the Livingston family is formidable, with us around, no one can force her."
The Vanderbilt family always protected their own, especially Savannah.
Seeing the group's strategy, Pentti immediately messaged Lorenzo privately, [Lorenzo, send me a photo of Savannah.]
[Focus on dealing with your rivals. I've got Savannah covered.] Lorenzo didn't need to think to know what Pentti was up to.
No matter what Pentti said, he didn't reveal anything.
He just told him to wait until Savannah returned to Zelphoria.
Their confidentiality was impeccable.
Even though they knew Savannah had been found, no one leaked the news to Kai.
The rift had started when Kai decided to adopt someone else.
They hadn't cared about Zelphoria before, but now that Savannah was coming back, everyone began shifting their business to Zelphoria.
They wanted to give Savannah the confidence to break the Livingston family engagement. There were plenty of men in the world, not just Charles.
At this moment, Charles had no idea he had unknowingly angered several people.
He was taking a call in the stairwell, exuding a powerful and noble aura.
The bodyguards around him didn't dare to approach.
Adeline waited until he hung up before walking over.
Seeing her, Charles's deep eyes showed a faint smile. "Are you looking for me?"
"Yes." Adeline's thin lips curved slightly. "There's something I want to discuss."
Charles took the scarf prepared by the bodyguard. He was going to wrap it around himself but instead draped it around her neck. "What is it?"
Charles's actions were natural.
Up close, there was a faint, pleasant medicinal scent.
The scarf was soft and cottony, just enough to cover her chin.
It made Adeline's face look even more enchanting. "When did your family meet me?"
