The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 3988

Charlie saw that Claudia looked like she was only about seventeen or eighteen years old, and she seemed to be Eurasian.

She had blue eyes, long eyelashes, a high nose bridge, and she had brown-black hair. Her features were impeccable.

However, although her features were very beautiful and her appearance was also very perfect, there was a burn scar from her right cheek all the way to her neck. The scar was very obvious, and her entire skin had been completely twisted. It was shocking and also a little gruesome.

Claudia also deliberately turned sideways a s she tried not to let Charlie see the scar on her right cheek. She even pulled up her collar involuntarily as she tried to block it as much as possible.

Charlie looked at Claudia and said politely," Hello, Claudia. You speak the Oskian dialect very well!"

Claudia nodded slightly and said softly," Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Wade..."

Stephanie, who was aside, introduced," Brother Charlie, this is the second employee in our store, Claudia DiNorscio. Claudia's mother is Oskian, and her father is Italian. She is half-Oskian, and she has been learning the Oskian dialect from her mother ever since she was a child. That's why she is particularly fluent in the Oskian dialect and is not much different compared to us."

"So, that's how it is." Charlie nodded gently as he pondered in his heart.

At this time, Claudia was a little nervous as she said to Stephanie, "Stephanie, there is no more sliced bread. I'll go to the back warehouse to bring some over."

Stephanie nodded quickly and said, "Okay, hurry and go."

Claudia then turned around and went inside the warehouse. Stephanie then whispered into Charlie's ear in a low voice," Brother Charlie, Claudia is more introverted. Furthermore, a fire broke out in her house before, and her parents and younger brother were all burned to death in that fire. Her own neck and face were seriously burned as well, and that is why she is usually a little less confident. However, Claudia is still a very good person. She is kindhearted and especially hardworking!"

Charlie nodded, and he could not help but sigh as he said, "It seems as though this girl's life is quite miserable..."

"Yes..." Stephanie sighed softly and said," She is the only person left in her family, and she was often bullied by her classmates. So, she dropped out of school. She had no source of

ihood and no fixed place to live

she came to work at the

store after that."

Charlie asked curiously, "Did you recruit her?"

"It was Mrs. Lewis." Stephanie said, "When her mother was still alive, her mother would send her younger brother to the nursery class occasionally. She became friends with Mrs. Lewis one way or they other, and since her mother also came from Aurous Hill some years ago, they could be considered to be from the same hometown. So, Mrs. Lewis could really get along with her mother. Unexpectedly, Claudia's

mother would meet with something

so unpredictable..."

As Stephanie spoke, she added, "After Claudia's family met with that accident, she disappeared for nearly half a month. Mrs. Lewis had also been looking for her at the time. After she came back, Mrs. Lewis then kept her at home."

"During that period of time, Claudia

did not dare to come out to meet people, and she did not go to school either. Later, she was not willing to be idle and stay at home without doing anything every day, so ske insisted on coming to help out at the store. Mrs. Lewis felt that this would help her get out of the shadows as soon as possible and so, she let her come over."

Charlie nodded thoughtfully.

Just then, Claudia came out holding a pile of sliced bread, and Stephanie also hurriedly went over to give her a hand.

When Charlie saw that the workload was not too big, he did not go up to help.

Instead, he turned around and walked to the door of the convenience store.

Charlie stood in the doorway, took out the chewing gum, gently pulled out a piece, peeled it open, and placed it into his mouth. He then looked around while chewing the gum.

The atmosphere of life at Hasting Street was very strong.

There were various shops with Oskian signboards everywhere, and it was mostly Oskian-style restaurants and pubs.
