Reborn Fake Heiress Watch the Whole Family Burn novel Chapter 852

He needed to keep her satisfied if he wanted to secure his position as the future son-in-law.

"Lorna, tell me the truth," Charles probed gently. "Why exactly did you fight with the Chairman? Was it because I crashed the car?"

Lorna couldn't possibly tell him the humiliating truth, so she simply nodded.

Charles feigned surprise. "He has an entire garage full of luxury cars! Why would the Chairman hold such a grudge over one? I always thought he was a generous, broad-minded man."

"It... it wasn't just about the car," Lorna stammered. "Anyway, I can never go back to that house, and I don't want to show my face at the company anymore. Charles, what am I going to do?"

"That's easy. I'll take care of you," he declared, kissing her forehead. "You're my everything. There isn't a thing in this world I wouldn't do for you."

Lorna melted into his sweet words, overwhelmed by a dizzying sense of happiness.

She secretly convinced herself that even if she had lost the Ellington family’s backing, she still had Charles. This man genuinely loved her.

Even at her lowest point, he was willing to provide for her!

"I love you so much, Charles!" she breathed, eagerly pulling him down for another round.

Charles stiffened, caught off guard by the heiress’s sudden aggression.

"Hold on, babe. Let me grab some water first."

He slipped out of bed, pouring a glass of water and quickly swallowing two more pills. Damn it, he cursed silently. Lorna was relentless. If he didn't medicate, he wouldn't survive the night.

He returned to bed, and the two of them stayed tangled in the sheets until evening.

By the time they finished, dark circles shadowed Charles's eyes.

"Lorna, I'm exhausted. I need to sleep," he muttered, passing out almost instantly.
