    "Outrageous!" risse was furious at Charles'' words. "Is this how you speak to me?"


    Charles remained silent.


    risse sighed. "You won''t return to the Hoffman residence, so I had no choice but toe find you."


    Hearing risse''s softened tone, Charles smirked with disdain. "Mother, you must be mistaken. I''ve always been this way. Grandpa and Dad never found any issue with it."


    "That''s them. They don''t care about you, so naturally, they don''t mind if you return or not. But Charlie, I''m your mother."


    "Oh, you remember now you''re my mother? When I needed your care, you weren''t there. Now that I don''t need it, you show up." Charles'' tone turned cold, his face showing impatience.


    "I''m working. If you have business matters, schedule an appointment with my secretary. For personal matters, wait until after work!"


    "Charles!" risse gritted her teeth. "I didn''te to discuss this. You should know I wouldn''te from Capiton to Brookville if it weren''t for you." "Then you should go back!" Charles stood abruptly, looking at risse coldly. "You were fine in Capiton. Don''te again without reason!" risse bit her lip. "You... I came to discuss something. Your marriage to J can''t be dyed any longer. You''re not getting any younger, and J has graduated.


    "We agreed you''d marry her after her graduation. It''s been a year, and you''ve shown no sign of action. Charlie, you promised—"


    "Enough!" Charles'' expression turnedpletely cold. "If you don''t understand, I''ll say it again, Mother. I''ve never touched her. Even if she were to stand naked before me, I wouldn''t be interested.


    "As for marrying her, if you and Uncle Milo like her so much, why don''t Uncle Milo marry her instead?"


    "You insolent child, what are you saying? J is your Uncle Milo''s daughter."


    "She''s the daughter of an old me, not his biological child." Charles put one hand in his pocket and nced sideways at J.


    When he saw her pale face, a sh of disgust crossed his eyes. "I won''t

    "If you still want to coexist peacefully with me, your son, you''d better not entertain such ideas."


    Charles pressed the inte. "Becky, get security up here!"


    risse and J looked at Charles in disbelief.


    Charles ignored risse, closed hisptop, and called Ronald, "Notify all departments. We''re holding a meeting in ten minutes."


    After speaking, he adjusted his cufflinks. By then, Becky had arrived with security.


    Becky opened the door and stood respectfully. "Mr. Hoffman, security is here."


    Charles nodded slightly, picked up


    hisptop, and walked to the


    security guards. "Please escort these twodies out. In the future, don''t let irrelevant people into thepany. If anything happens, I''ll hotel you responsible."


    "But Mr. Hoffman, thisdy said she''s your mother. That''s why we let them in one security guard said timidly, looking somewhat


    aggrieved.
