Reynald hesitated fCor a moment, then hung up the phone.
“Didn’t answer?” Charlotte wondered, but she didn’t know who was calling him.
He smiled and put away his phone, “Probably a sales call.”
He clenched the vibrating phone again, feeling conflicted and very complicated inside.
But he knew he couldn’t accept.
The better Maggie treated him, the more she trusted him, and he would eventually soften up towards them mother and daughter.
What he wanted was Jaxson’s “weak spot,” not creating a “weak spot” for himself.
Even if he might have liked Charlotte.
But he still chose the family over Charlotte.
They didn’t stay long, then they left separately.
Charlotte had just sat in the car when Maggie called her and asked, “Why didn’t Reynald answer my calls? I tried calling him several times, is he busy?”
Charlotte was stunned, “When did you call?”
“Ten minutes ago.”
Charlotte suddenly remembered Reynald hanging up the phone, and she asked him at that time, “Why didn’t you answer?”
“I was at Charlie’s, thinking if Reynald wasn’t busy, he could come pick me up. Am I bothering him by always asking him?”
Maggie’s words made Charlotte’s heart ache a little.
After Gustavo passed away, Reynald did help the mother and daughter a lot. In the mother’s heart, Reynald was like a son, but she forgot that they were just strangers to Reynald.
Not even considered as relatives.
