Chapter 229
ire didn''t want to shake Peter’s hand, but since he had offered it, it would be rude to refuse him.
Thus, she pursed her lips and extended her hand reluctantly, i
Just as Peter was silently thrilled and was about to grab ire''s fair hand, suddenly, arge hand
came out of nowhere and grabbed his hand firmly. 4
Peter was stunned for a moment. Looking up angrily, h e growled, "What the hell!? Who are you?"
ire lifted her gaze as well and was a little dazed at what she saw.
"Charlie! When did youe?" 2
She then quickly turned to Peter and exined, "He is my husband."
Peter''s face turned gloomy as if a dark cloud hovered above his head when he heard the word
''husband''.
"I just arrived." Charlie smiled at ire and then turned to Peter, pretending not to see the change
of his expression, and then said, "You are Peter Murray, aren''t you? The boss of Millenium
Enterprise?" 3
Peter said in a sullen tone, "Yes, that’s me. So what?" 1
"Nothing. It''s just that you’re quite a lecherous, dirty old man!" Charlie nodded and intentionally
lengthened his tone.

Agitated, Peter tried to withdraw his hand, but Charlie grabbed onto him like a pair of iron tongs that
made it impossible for him to break free.
Peter hissed as his palm hurt more and more, and he felt as though his bones were about to break.
"Hey, let ... let go of my hand! It''s very painful!" 3
ire knew that Charlie was very strong, and so, she urged, "Charlie, let go."
Charlie finally released his grip and nced at Peter with an ambiguous smile.
Peter''s face was twisted in a painful grimace. He red at Charlie angrily before turning to ire
and saying, "Tell your husband to go home. I''m not used to discussing business matters in front of
outsiders."
ire paused for a short moment and said, "Charlie is my husband. He knows about my n, he''s
not an outsider."
"But still! I''m not used to talking about such an important agenda in front of a third party." Peter
red at him, wanting him to disappear right then and there. "Besides, he wouldn''t understand what
we''re talking about anyway."
ire whispered to Charlie softly. "Why don''t you go home first? I''m here for official business.” 4
"It''s okay, I’ll wait," Charlie said and sat down next to ire.
Peter grit his teeth in fury as he watched Charlie sitting close to ire, his arm rubbing against her
delicate body. He was very frustrated that he had almost gotten his hands on ire but failed.
He snorted in dismay. "You''re the live-in son-inw of the Wilson family, aren’t you? Do you know
how infamous you are in Aurous Hill? ire is working hard to support the family. We’re discussing
our potential coboration, please don’t be a bother and get out of our way." 3
Peter''s tone was very rude and direct because he had n o respect for Charlie whatsoever, and he
wanted to send him away as soon as possible. 3
Most of the people in the social circle knew about the deadbeat son-inw of the Wilson family.
Petermented that a magnificent beauty like ire was married to a moocher. 3
Charlie, on the other hand, frowned at the annoying tone and nced at Peter coldly.
''ire''? Were they on the first name basis now? She was not your wife, b*stard! 2
Peter stared at Charlie in disdain and said, "Charlie, if you are a man, don''t bother ire! Can you
help her? D o you have the money for herpany? Can you get her a contract of architectural
drawings?" 2
"If you can’t, I suggest that you go and get a job. You can be a deliveryman or even a security
guard. Don''t stay at home all day long and be suspicious of your wife like a miserable loser
husband!"
