Chapter 2197


    Carmen really did not want to continue living this kind of tough and difficult life anymore. 1


    If she truly had to wait until the Tomb Sweeping Festival before she could go home, that would be


    no different from taking her life, then.


    At this time, Jeremiah could not help butfort her," Carmen, just hold your temper in and wait


    patiently for a few more days. I will call Charlie if he is still unwilling to let you go, then.” 5


    Carmen was naturally filled with grievances at this time, but she did not dare to say anything


    anymore.


    She secretly thought to herself, "I understand everything clearly now. In my father''s eyes, Charlie is


    the most important person in the Wade family." 4


    "After all, if he really marries Yule''s daughter, he will b e the heir of the Golding family''s assets and


    properties worth trillions of dors. That will certainly be of great help to the Wade family." 4


    "Under this kind of situation, I am a daughter who is already married to someone else. So, how


    could I possiblypare myself to the importance that my father attaches to Charlie?”


    "Sigh. It seems like I can only ept my own fate and admit my own misfortune!"


    Thus, Carmen could only say resentfully, "Alright then, Dad. I got it... I will wait patiently for a few


    more days. I f Charlie has not let me go in three to five days, you have to call him and talk to him,


    then..."


    As she spoke, Carmen continued sobbing.


    Jeremiahforted her, "Okay, don’t worry. Give it three more days. If Charlie does not let you go


    even after three days, I will call him personally."


    Carmen nodded as she choked up and said, "Okay, Dad. I will hang up now..."


    "Okay. You can hang up."

    After ending the video call, Carmen could not hold her tears back in anymore, and her tears started


    rolling down her cheeks.


    At this moment, Carmen suddenly heard the sounds o f knocking on her door.


    Carmen instantly jumped up off the bed and ran toward the door in a few steps before pulling the


    door open.


    Before she had even taken a close look at the person outside, she started cursing, "You b*stards!


    When are you going to let me go?"


    Charlie looked at Carmen, who had dull skin and swollen eye bags, as he said, "Aunt, the weather


    in Aurous Hill is so humid and cold. You have already been here for nine days, but you have not


    managed to suppress your anger and temperament yet?"


    When Carmen saw that it was Charlie, she immediately asked in frustration, "Charlie! You said that


    you would let me go after seven days, but your men have already kept me locked up here for nine


    days now! Why haven''t you released me yet?!"


    As she spoke, she saw Albert, who was standing next t o Charlie, and she scolded him angrily, "It


    was this b* stard who has been detaining me for an extra two days! He really deserves to die!"


    Charlie replied coldly, "I was the one who asked him t o detain you for another two days." 2


    "It was your idea?!" Carmen asked indignantly, "You clearly said that it would only be seven days,


    so why did it change into nine days instead? What is your reason?!"


    Charlie snorted as he replied faintly, "Aren’t you my aunt? Since it is such a rare opportunity for you


    toe all the way here, how could you leave after staying for just seven days? No matter what it


    is, I should keep you here for another two more days, right?" 3


    Carmen was about to explode from anger because of Charlie''s carefree and frivolous attitude. So,


    she angrily rebuked, "Charlie! Stop pretending to care about kinship in front of me! Do you think I do


    not know you well enough yet? Let me warn you, you''d better not try toe up with any tricks


    now! Hurry u p and let me go!" 3


    Charlie shook his head lightly as he sighed and said, "I t seems as though nine days here was not


    enough to suppress your temper and anger at all. The weather in Eastcliff is so dry. Since you have


    such a bad temper, your temper will definitely get worse if you go back now. In my opinion, you


    should continue staying in Aurous Hill for a few more days to extinguish your angerpletely


    before you leave!" 2


    After he was done speaking, Charlie immediately instructed Albert who was next to him, "Albert!"
