Saying that, Xiaofen looked at Charlie again and said seriously, “Brother Charlie, but I treat Claudia like my own sister,”
“And I am your sister, Claudia is your sister’s sister, that’s the same as your sister, so you must treat her like a sister too ……”
Charlie saw through Xiaofen’s mind at a glance and knew that she must have hoped that she had avenged Claudia’s bloodshed,
So she had deliberately placed Claudia, her “sister”, on her head.
Charlie himself is really appreciative of this girl, who though ill-fated but never gave up,
And also really want to take advantage of this opportunity, lend her a hand.
So, he nodded along with the water and smiled faintly, “In that case, then Claudia will be like Xiaofen and call me brother in the future,”
“And if you encounter anything in the future, just tell me directly, and I will definitely help you if I can.”
Claudia hesitated for a moment and nodded somewhat moved.
A ‘brother Charlie’ just reached the mouth, but she swallowed back.
She is a slow girl, and her nature is cold and solitary, so it is difficult to fully open up at once.
However, her heart is indeed full of gratitude to the three people in front of her.
Aunt Li and Xiaofen needless to say, Charlie with her has first meeting and can say these words.
This also really let her have a feeling of being protected.
She is the eldest sister in the family, growing up without a brother to protect her,
Although her character is indeed very strong, but also very good at taking care of others.
But very often, she is also like other little girls, deep down in the hope that there can be a brother,
Everywhere to take care of her and for her protection,
Especially after the family suffered a huge change, in her inner heart this need got even stronger.
This made her think back to what happened today at the convenience store.
When Velma brought Smith and her two followers, ran to the convenience store to bully her.
It was Charlie who took the initiative to stand up and protect her.
However, she has never figured out what exactly Charlie used to make Smith like that.
The one who has always been obedient to Velma, suddenly seemed to have lost his mind.
It seemed as if Smith himself was impulsive for a moment, but she feels that things don’t seem to be that simple ……
After the four of them had a happy meal, Claudia and Xiaofen were helping Auntie Li clean up the table and kitchen.
At this time Grover’s call came to Claudia’s cell phone.
After Claudia got through, Grover told her, “Little sister, I’ve arrived at Xiaofen’s door, tell that buddy to come out.”
Claudia said, “Wait a minute, I’ll talk to Mr. Wade.”
With that, she hung up the phone, came to Charlie’s side, and whispered,
“Mr. Wade …… Charlie brother, Grover has arrived at the door.”
Charlie nodded and greeted Xiaofen, “Xiaofen, if you have nothing to do, why don’t you accompany me out for a walk?”
Xiaofen knew that Charlie was going to Grover’s casino,
So she immediately said, “Sure, Brother Charlie, wait for me.”
