However, even though she disliked them, Charis knew she had to give Fiona and Jocelyn some hope Fiona rubbed her fingers awkwardly and said, “I’m sorry, Miss Turner. Ignore my words
“Mrs. Lind, please? I didn’t mean that I don’t like Jocelyn. To be honest, my father has dated a lot of women in the
past. But they were all gold diggers. However, Jocelyn is the only one I liked. She is genuine and likes my dad for
who he is and not his money.” Charis continued to flatter them, hoping they would take the bait.
Her words ignited a spark of hope in Fiona’s heart.
“What do you mean, Miss Turner?” Fiona and Jocelyn exchanged glances. They were on an emotional rollercoaster
“My father had stopped loving my mother a long time ago; their marriage is already dead. In fact, I’d be doing them a favor by helping them find true love.” Charis sighed dramatically. She knew this was what Fiona hoped to hear from her.
“My father likes you a lot.” She smiled at Jocelyn. “You have been with him for a while, right? I have never seen him
be this happy with any woman before. It was he who asked me to visit you and see if you were okay.”
