Eva's heart skipped a beat. It was clear that they targeted Charlie.
But Old Mrs. Lesser was the authority figure in the Lesser family. Even Old Master Lesser had to obey her, let alone Eva.
Eva looked at Charlie nervously and clenched her hands tightly.
Charlie narrowed his eyes angrily. If it wasn't for the fact that he wanted Nancy to see her father, he really didn't want to enter the Lesser family's mansion!
Nancy looked up. Of course, she knew that Charlie was feeling terrible. She had just experienced mistreatment as well and wanted to leave with Charlie.
But this was her only chance to see her father...
She wanted to be selfish this time...
Charlie understood the look in her eyes and gave her a smile. "It's fine. You go in, Nan. If they bully you, just shout and I'll come in to take you away."
"Okay."
Nancy nodded lightly and held Charlie's hand tightly. "I promise this is the last time and the only time."
Charlie understood, and this time, he genuinely chuckled. "Alright, go in then. It's better to have a result earlier."
Nancy gave him a sweet smile and then followed the girl guarding the gate inside.
Eva could naturally go inside, but she couldn't leave Charlie alone. She just stood there, accompanying Charlie.
Her two daughters glared fiercely at Charlie and tried to enter the courtyard. Eva's eyes dimmed and she reached out to stop them. "Both of you, go attend the wedding. Don't wander off!"
"Mom..."
"Don't call me!"
Eva turned around and glared at them angrily. "It wasn't a big deal, but you made it into a big thing. Have you forgotten what I've taught you?"
The two girls pouted, clearly feeling extremely wronged.
Their grievance wasn't because Eva scolded them, but rather because Eva scolded them in front of Charlie!
"Mom!"
The taller girl couldn't stand it any longer and yelled, "We are your children, but you are taking Charlie's side and bullying us. Isn't it because we're both daughters and you didn't give birth to a son for the Lesser family?!"
She was slapped across the face at once.
Eva trembled as she looked at them, and her eyes uncontrollably turned red once again.
The girl who was slapped stared at Eva. "Mom, you hit me?!"
She screamed, "You have never hit me before! I hate you! I don't want you as my mother anymore!"
After saying that, she ran away, crying.
The girl with a smaller face looked at Eva, then looked at her sister, and stomped her foot in frustration before chasing after her sister.
"Boo-hoo..."
Eva couldn't bear it any longer and started crying sorrowfully.
She felt so sorry for herself!
Charlie's heart sank as she sobbed and trembled...
It seemed like she wasn't living so happily in the Lesser family either...
Although he felt a bit uncomfortable, he still stood there coldly without going over to comfort Eva.
