When he had suddenly bumped into Marianne just now, he had thought that God was really helping him and that this was just a good way for him to put on an act without showing any signs.

However, he never would have thought that Marianne would not appreciate it.

She even managed to push him into a dead end with just a few words.

Now, it was difficult for him to go back on his words. If he did not want to embarrass himself, he could only honestly cash in the donation of ten million Hong Kong dollars. Furthermore, he could only make an anonymous donation, according to Marianne. When Marianne saw his embarrassed expression, she then said indifferently, "It does not matter if you regret it and want to go back on your word. Dillion. You can just pretend that I did not say anything."

As soon as Dillion heard this, he blurted out without hesitation, "No! Absolutely not! How could I, Dillion Brown, go back on my words?! Isn't it just ten million Hong Kong dollars? I will transfer the money immediately!"

He picked up his cell phone after saying that.

Marianne nodded and said, "You can take your time to transfer the money, then. I still have something to do, so I'll leave first."

Having said that, she realized that Charlie had not revealed himself. So, she turned around and glanced at the back of the car." Mr. Wade?"

Charlie stuck his head out at this time and laughed as he teased, "Oh, am I delaying the both of you? Why don't you guys continue first and pretend that I'm not here? I'm not in a hurry, anyway."

Marianne knew that Charlie was teasing her, so she complained a little as she said," Charlie, no matter what it is, you're still the fiance whom my father has arranged for me. What do you mean by hiding at the back of the car at this time? Are you still a man?!" When Charlie heard this, he could not help but laugh.

Somehow, he was filled with admiration for Marianne.

Firstly, he admired how fast her brain worked.

Secondly, he admired the fact that this girl did not hold on to her grudges, and she was dealing with them directly on the spot.

He was simply teasing her, but he did not expect that she would seize this opportunity to use him as a shield instead. She even managed to criticize him at the same time. She was indeed something.

However, Marianne had underestimated Charlie.

She might not hold grudges overnight, but it was the same for Charlie.

Therefore, Charlie looked a little embarrassed as he said, "I'm sorry, Marianne. It was all my fault. I will definitely be the first to stand in front of you if you encounter this kind of troublemaker again inthe future."

Marianne nodded in satisfaction and said,' You must not have such a girly character when you are with me in the future. You should be a little tougher and manlier! Otherwise, how can you give me a sense of security, then?"

"You're right." Charlie said earnestly, "My previous character was indeed too effeminate."

Marianne held back her laughter and spoke up as she said, "It's good that you know that!"

At this moment, Charlie then put the

cardboard box under his arm, walked over to Marianne, and he took advantage of her unpreparedness as he reached out to grab her other hand and held it tightly. His eyes and tone were firm and unwavering as he said, "Darling, please believe me. I will do my best to protect you from now on, and I'll never let you get hurt!"
