"Yeah. Yeah. I saw that news too." "I saw it too. That person must be a true tycoon!" "I think it's the same person who treated sanitation workers to a free meal at that steak restaurant." "Yummy. I have the impression that man is some kind of angelic human."
The girls chatted about the gossip.
Finally, the dorm door opened. A sweaty-looking Kenzie came waddling in with a large sack.
Lena curiously asked, "Kenzie, what are you carrying?" "It's cat food, for you guys." In that dorm, including Kenzie, there were five girls. They all had cats at home.
Charlie bought one hundred and fifty bags of cat food all at once. One cat wouldn't be able to eat all that by itself. So, Kenzie thought the right thing to do was to share it with her roommates.
When Lena and the others heard what she said, they gloomily refused. "No, it's okay, Kenzie. I appreciate your kindness, but my family has enough cat food as it is," said one of them. "Same here." "Me too." "Me, three."
Kenzie said, "Don't reject it so quickly. I guarantee after you see the food, you'll all be stumbling over each other asking for it. Those are lofty words. What brand of cat food is it? I bet it's not premium cat food, haha."
"Actually, you guessed correctly." Kenzie nodded her head.
"There's no use trying to fool us. Premium cat food is too expensive." The other girls felt the same; they weren't sure. Only Lena showed a bit of curiosity. She moved to look. After she saw the cat food sack properly, she was immediately shocked.
"Oh my god! It really is premium cat food. KK, have you suddenly become rich?" exclaimed Lena.
"Stop it, Lena. Don't follow KK and try to fool us." "I'm not joking. It really is premium cat food." Lena took out the premium cat food from the sack. Once they saw that it really was premium cat food, all the girls were shocked in unison. The cat food smelled really good too.
They all came closer to take some, each taking an equal portion of the cat food. Then, the girls stared at Kenzie because they thought she was a wealthy lady.
"KK, you haven't answered my question," said Lena.
"Yeah, KK. Did you wake up to find you have unimaginable wealth?" "What kind of great lady are you? You gave us five bags each. That's twenty bags total. That adds up to two hundred thousand dollars." "Kenzie, quick! Let me hug your leg." "I want to hug it too."
Kenzie became surrounded by the girls trying to grab her leg and hug it. "I didn't give this premium cat food. My cousin gave it to me. I'm not a grand lady." Kenzie told her friends.
"Your cousin?" The girls exclaimed in unison.
"Yes. He gave a total of one hundred and fifty bags. So, if you guys run out of cat food soon, just ask me again," said Kenzie.
"Sweet baby Jesus, one hundred and fifty bags? Really?" "Kenzie, is it possible what you just gave us is fake?" "One hundred and fifty bags. That's one and a half million dollars. Man, your cousin is too rich."
Because she was too shocked by Charlie's sudden metamorphosis, Kenzie now chatted about him breathlessly. "Yes. He's not only rich, too. He's tall and handsome, and he plays games really well."
"Really? I hope you're not messing with us here, KK. Someone who's truly rich and handsome is rare." "Whether you're messing with us or not, Kenzie, as a friend I want to see a photo of your cousin." "Yeah! Do you have a photo? Let's see."
Kenzie opened her phone and flipped through photos of Charlie. They all looked at them. "Damn!" "Damn!" "Damn!" The four girls cried out in shock. He was too handsome. He must be the most handsome man in the world. It seemed like he could have someone until death.
Among them, the most excited was Lena. She said, "That's him! That's the handsome guy I saw before, the one I told you about." "I'm so jealous of you, Lena. You actually got to meet this man directly, seeing his handsomeness and generosity in person," said one of the girls. "If I were in your position, after meeting a guy that handsome, I would have fainted in his arms," responded the other girls.
"Stop it! Quickly give me his phone number. Let me see him closer." The petite girl with the comb stuck in her hair grabbed the phone and looked carefully at Charlie's photo. All the zoom levels weren't enough. In the end, she actually kissed the photo on the screen.
This scene shocked the other girls and annoyed them. They each tried to grab the phone. "This is my man, what do you think you're doing?" "Nonsense! This is clearly my man."
Kenzie facepalmed, but then she had to stop the girls. "Cut it out, guys. My cousin is already married." "Huh?" Once this statement was made, the four girls' hearts broke instantly. A rich and handsome man like that had decided to marry early.
"It's okay. I'm still willing to marry him. I can be his second wife." "Why should you be the second wife? I want to be the second wife too." "I won't compete with you, as long as I can be a wife too." "Knock it off. Do you three clowns really think you can compete with me for his love? I will be by his side as his second wife in his palace."
Kenzie watched her friends arguing over who should be the second wife, but she didn't know what to say. She knew she could blame Charlie for this, though. He was truly too charming.
At the same time, Charlie, who was at home, suddenly sneezed. He muttered, "Is someone saying bad things about me behind my back?" Ding Dong Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Charlie opened the door. He saw his wife standing at the door.
Charlie smiled and gently said, "So, you got off work early today?" Madison Ford looked at Charlie's smile. It pierced her chest and made her blush, as shocked as a deer in headlights. She was used to seeing handsome men before, but she had never felt so childish. What feeling was this? Was it because the handsome men she usually saw weren't as handsome as Charlie? Madison shook her head and brought her focus back to the present.
"Brother-in-law, I'm Maddie." He had mistaken her for someone else. Charlie was surprised. Unexpectedly, what he thought might happen someday had already happened. However, this couldn't be helped. The two sisters really looked exactly alike.
"So, it's Maddie. Come in and sit." "I won't sit, but I did come to find you. I need to ask for your help," said Maddie. "What kind of help?" Charlie asked.
"The problem is this: you gave me a luxury raccoon, and now my parents think I'm in love. They go on and on about it, and it's driving me crazy. Could you just come home with me, to prove it to them?"
This is the kind of thing a simple phone call could achieve. However, Charlie couldn't deny he was quite curious about Kate's family. He didn't know what kind of family she grew up in. At the same time, he also wanted to meet his father-in-law and mother-in-law. His involvement might become a soothing balm to the situation between his wife and her parents.
So, he promised to help Madison. Because driving the Maserati to work had caused too much commotion, Kate stopped taking it to work. Charlie was the one who had given her a ride there and back since then. So, his car was parked in the garage. Charlie grabbed the car keys. Not long after, he drove Madison back to New Pine Town.
