chapter 1532
Maurice had been apanying Charmine silently.
When he sensed that she was zoning out again, he started to exin the nts around them and their
origins to her.
Charmine was pulled back to reality and looked at him, stunned.
In the beginning, she found him gentle and caring. All of a sudden, she found out that he was incredibly
knowledgeable!
There were trees she had never seen before, and he could easily name them and their origins.
A man like him...
Charmine thought of what happened in the haunted house, and she regretted not taking photos of him
earlier.
The two of them walked around until the sunset before they made their way back to the field.
Many couples had made their tents on the field.
The sun was setting, and half of the sky had reddened. The red light shone on the tents so
romantically...
Charmine had a thought, and her eyes darkened.
She looked at Maurice and said, "Why don''t we build a tent?” "Sure."
Of course, Maurice would not overthink it. He thought she just wanted to y around, or perhaps to
enjoy the night view with Chris. With that, he went ahead to get the equipment needed.
They picked an ideal spot and started building the tent.
Charmine wanted to help out, but Maurice gently took the items from her. " With me around, I’m not
going to let you work too much.”
Charmine''s lips twisted into a smile-she truly did see him as a father figure. "Fine. I''ll get the ingredients
to start the fire, then." "Okay, stay safe," reminded Maurice, still busy working on the tent.

Charmine walked out before, on a second thought, she went to look for Chris.
Chris was sitting on the sofa with his legs tucked in. His adorable face looked serious as if he was
contemting something serious.
Charmine asked, "What are you thinking of, my dear?" "Nothing...!" Chris snapped out from his
thoughts and put on his signature smile. "Of course I’m thinking of Mommy!" "Look at you!" Mommy
ruffled his hair lovingly as she then asked, "We’re having a barbequeter. What would you like to eat?
Pick them yourself!"
Chris'' eyes sparkled. "Oh, sweet!"
Charmine brought him outside and walked past the field, spotting Maurice still setting up the tent.
When Chris saw couples everywhere while Maurice was all by himself, he felt pity for him.
Maurice had been treating others selflessly while forgetting about himself.
Charmine''s eyes followed to where Chris looked at, and she saw Maurice sweating. She felt guilty.
She lowered her head and said to Chris, "You must treat Mo nicely, my dear. Don''t bully him; he''s a
rather gentle soul.”
He genuinely treated her well and spoiled her like his daughter, while she had been using him all along
to trigger Anthony.
Even though Maurice knew about this, he still treated her so well...
Other than Anthony, this was the first time someone treated her so well.
She thought they could be good friends.
Chris nodded. "Don''t worry, Mommy. I know. I like Grandpa, too. I’ll stop bullying him."
Charmine looked away and lowered her head to smile at him. "We''ll be buying some ingredients after
this. Let''s not wear Mo out." "Okay!" replied Chris with a straight face. "Yeah. Grandpa is so old, and he
shouldn''t be worn out."
Charmine was speechless.
After Charmine and Chris left, a luxury car pulled over before the resort.
Anthony got out of the car, his body reeked of alcohol despite looking asposed as he usually did.
He shot a cold nce at the resort, and when he noticed just how romantic the atmosphere was, his
thin lips curled up mockingly.
Charmine sure had a good eye in choosing the venue, alright!
He walked in.
When the staff saw him, he instantly lowered his head politely. "May I help you. President Bailey?"
"Bring me to my room," said Anthony.
Every hotel he owned would keep him a permanent room. No matter when or whether he came here at
all, nobody could stay in it.
"Yes, sir!" The staff led him to the room politely.
