The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 4488
Marianne was already completely helpless when dealing with Charlie.
Although she knew that Charlie was very strong, she still had no confidence as to whether Charlie would be able to overpower the Brown family and the Order of the Star. However, she already had a plan in mind.
If this matter were to really end up being so bad that it could not be ended, she would go and beg her father to step in.
If her father still could not solve the problem, she would go to the police directly, then.
After all, it was Dillion who had led people to follow them for today's matter, and they were even planning to kill Charlie. What Charlie had done could be regarded as selfdefense.
At that time, her father and the police could work together to put pressure on the Brown family and the Order of the Star, and there might be a chance to intervene!
After that, Marianne took Charlie to a very busy wonton noodles stall.
When she saw that the small tables in front of the stall were already full, she smiled and said to the boss, "Mr. Callen, your business is doing so well today!"
Mr. Callen looked up to see Marianne, and he was not surprised at all. Instead, he smiled as he said, "Miss Marianne, we are all very happy to hear that you're dating someone!" Marianne asked in surprise, "This... Who said that?! Who started this gossip?!"
Mr. Callen smiled and said, "Mr. Norman told us in our Whatsapp group! Everyone on this street already knows about it! He even secretly took pictures of you and your boyfriend!"
Having said that, he took out an old smartphone and showed a candid photo of Marianne and Charlie from the back profile which had been taken secretly to them. He then smiled and said, "Miss Marianne, your boyfriend and you are truly a perfect match!"
Marianne felt completely helpless. "It's really a waste that Mr. Norman is not working as a paparazzo to write gossip news! I already told Mr. Norman that he is just a friend..."
As she spoke, she quickly changed the topic and said, "Forget it, Mr. Callen. Please cook us two bowls of wonton noodles."
Mr. Callen nodded, took out a folding
table from under the stall that was obviously much cleaner compared to the other tables, set it up in an open space, and took out two folding chairs and placed them on both ends of the table before he said to Marianne, "Miss Marianne, the both of you can have a seat first. I'll go and cook it for you now."
Marianne said, "Thank you, Mr. Callen. I'll go and buy some other food first."
Mr. Callen hurriedly said, "Miss Marianne, you can just sit down and tell me what you want to eat directly. I will post a message in our Whatsapp group, then."
Marianne said, "That would be inappropriate... It'd be better for me to go by myself..."
Mr. Callen smiled and said, "Miss Marianne, the stalls that you often go to are all owned by a group of old women who like to gossip. They will definitely tease you when you go there."
"Oh..." Marianne sat down immediately and said a little fearfully, "Please help me notify them then, Mr. Callen. I'd like a portion of bacon ham and curry fish balls. Please help me order a meat platter and some roast goose too."
Mr. Callen smiled and said, "Please wait a minute, Miss Marianne. I'll let them know now."
Charlie could not help but sigh as he said," It seems as though everyone likes you very much." "Yes."
Marianne smiled and said, "They
watched me grow up, and the net
probably also feel that they owe me some favors because of the stalls. So, they treat me very well."
Charlie said seriously, "It's true that they feel grateful to you, but they truly like you as well. I can see that each of them treats you like their own family member, and they also have very pure intentions."
Marianne nodded and smiled as she said," I'm also very grateful to them. Things would have long been different here if it weren't for them. They are all here to help me preserve the best memories of my life."
