Chapter 155 Embracing New Life

Charlotte squatted down and looked at her two children, asking, "Were you happy at kindergarten today?" Andy answered seriously, "I was happy, but it's always better when Mom is around." Lilian whispered, "I miss you, Mom." Dilis called out from behind them, "It's time for lunch, come inside." Sophia and Carlos, inside the house, saw the harmonious scene of their family. This fantasy left a deep impression in Sophia's heart. In the future, she wanted to treat her children like this, ensuring they never suffered. Thinking of this, Sophia's hand instinctively touched her belly, imagining scenes after the baby was born. "Actually, seeing them like this now, isn't it nice?" Sophia answered without hesitation, "Yes, before I couldn't quite understand it, but now that I've lived with them for a long time, I gradually understand. We used to worry too much about ourselves, afraid we wouldn't take care of this little life well, so we had concerns. But it's okay now, I feel like I have the ability to take care of my children." Carlos pulled her up from the sofa, and they slowly walked towards the dining table. "It's not just you, it's both of us." Sophia's face was filled with a happy smile. "You're right, it's both of us!" The next day when Charlotte woke up, she saw that Sophia was still asleep, so she decided to put aside her work and spend the day at home with her. Charlotte couldn't leave Sophia alone at home, but Dilis couldn't sit still. After lunch, she brought her new boyfriend to visit. She also brought the contract they were supposed to discuss. Knowing that both of them liked desserts, she brought some along. When Charlotte saw the two of them appearing at her doorstep together, she was a little surprised. She asked, "Is this your assistant?" The man who came with Dilis, with his blonde hair, blue eyes, and tall figure, could attract attention anywhere he went. With such outstanding looks and a slightly melancholic aura, how many young girls would be attracted to him? Dilis shook her head embarrassedly. "No, this is my boyfriend." Charlotte was even more surprised. In just a few days, this guy actually got a boyfriend. "You moved fast." After hearing this, Dilis became even more embarrassed. "After hearing your advice that day, I also felt that I should start my new life." Charlotte had also gone through a failed marriage, so she could empathize with her situation. "We do need to move forward, not live in the past." Dilis nodded. "Yes, that's what I think too." Charlotte playfully dragged her into the kitchen. "Now it's just the two of us, spill the beans. How did you manage to find such an outstanding boyfriend?" Dilis' face turned slightly red. "He pursued me for a while, but I had concerns, so I didn't agree right away. If it weren't for your encouragement that day, I probably wouldn't have agreed so easily." Charlotte nodded. "I see. Did you two know each other before?" Dilis replied, "Yes, we knew each other, and our families have some acquaintance, so we've known each other since childhood. At first, I was worried he would mind that I had been divorced. But after these days together, I feel like he's really good to me." Charlotte's relaxed and natural smile indicated that this man was indeed good. But they had only been together for a few days, so they still needed to see how things would develop. Even if they had known each other for a long time, they were still somewhat unfamiliar, slightly closer than strangers. Even so, Charlotte still reminded her, "Be cautious, it's better to spend some time with him first and see what kind of person he is. It's too early to judge, as it's only been a short time." Dilis didn't refute her words and smiled, saying, "Of course, I'm not a fool. I've been hurt once before, how could I possibly be hurt again?" Seeing Dilis' reaction, Charlotte nodded in satisfaction. Indeed, a woman who had been divorced once had become enlightened, precisely because she knew how it felt and how much she had been hurt. That was why they wouldn't easily give their hearts away. Charlotte raised her eyebrows and looked at her. "No, you came to see me today to discuss work, and you're here chatting with me. Isn't it okay to leave him alone?" Dilis replied calmly, "He's used to it, and it's not the first time between us. Let's finish our conversation first, and then come down. Besides, you can also get to know him a bit and help me see what kind of person he is." "Alright." Charlotte called Dilis over and said, "Bring the snacks they brought and the coffee upstairs." Dilis smiled and said, "Yes, madam." "Let's go to the study now." Charlotte said calmly. The two of them went upstairs. When they were on the stairs, Charlotte deliberately glanced back at the man. Seeing his calm demeanor without any impatience, it seemed that he was reliable. But she still needed to get to know him better. She couldn't let her little sister be fooled again. "The quality of these precious metals is indeed good, but are you really going to offer them to me at such a low price? Won't you lose money like this?" Charlotte said. Dilis smiled gently. "How could that be? This is our family's own mine." Charlotte couldn't help but sigh. How many secrets did this woman have? She knew her family was well-off, but she didn't know they also had a mine. No wonder Dilis could afford to offer such a low price... Of course, Charlotte also understood that Dilis could do this because of their friendship. If it were a stranger, how could Dilis be so generous? "But I'm really worried that you'll lose out. Why not raise the price a bit?" Dilis stubbornly shook her head. She did want to repay the favor Charlotte had done for her before. "I haven't really calculated the actual price, but even if I lose a little with you, it's okay."
