Chapter 499: No Matter The Cost

Charles POV

"Excuse me I got up and went to the balcony to answer the phone.”

"This better be important, Corey"

"Charles, Adam’s reputation is at rock bottom! He has no way out Several cooperative banks have
rejected his request for a loan Hell, even the Wilson Group has made it clear that they have no
intention of helping Adarn! Edward must’ve ordered it all the small companies that Adam invested in
before have gone bankrupt.

The only financial assets he has left are his shares in the Wilson Group.

To make matters worse, he wants to put them up for collateral to some illegal banks, just so he could
get a loan, Corey explained .

"Take all of his shares.Leave him nothing." I commanded

"All of them? Adam may not have that many shares, but it’s still going to cost a lot of money."

Corey asked tentatively

"Yes, I want all of them no matter the cost. I want that bastard, Adam, to lose everything he has!"

"You really are willing to do anything for Caroline, huh? You’re willing to spend so much money just to
make her smile. I heard that you moved into her villa.How do you feel, man?"

After discussing business with me, Corey returned to his usual playful sell.

"I would be having fun right now if you hadn’t interrupted me," I grunted.



“ 75 that so? Want my help, bro? I have some good sex toys.It’ll only cost thirty dollars for you to
experience multiple pleasures, including vibration, cool sense, and…"

# Caroline’s POV

"Mommy, it’s time to get up! How could you be even lazier than Jason?"

Around ten in the morning.

I was awakened by James’ sweet voice.

When I opened my eyes, I saw three little versions of Charles blinking at me.I glanced at the watch,
blushing upon the realization that I had woken up so late.

"Mommy had a really beautiful dream just now."

Last night, I had the best sleep in these past few days.

"I know! Mommy must’ve dreamt of us and Daddy!"

Jason raised his hands in the air, as if he was happily asking for me to praise him.

Upon seeing his lovely reaction, a smile appeared on my lips.

I leaned over and planted a kiss on his puffy cheek

"Jason, you’re so smart.Come on, son.Mommy will help you wash up."

When we went downstairs, the fragrant aroma of food reached my nose.

‘Is Elena cooking? Confused, I went to the kitchen and saw that Charles was cooking. He was standing
with his back to the door.



Elena was persuading him to leave, but he just ignored her and continued cooking with great skill.

"Charles, why are you cooking?"

Upon hearing my voice, they both turned around.

Elena ran towards me when she saw me.

"Caroline, Mr.Wilson said that Mr.Moore isn’t allowed to enter the house.We made an exception for him
last night, but we can’t let him stay here any longer," Elena complained with a frown.

"Elena, please don’t tell my dad about this for the time being, Lately, he hasn’t been feeling well.I’ll tell
him about this myself once he recovers," I responded.

"Yes, ma’am," Elena sighed.

Charles came over with a plate of bacon on hand.

"Breakfast is ready.Come and have some!"

While we were eating breakfast, I reluctantly asked, "Charles, when are you going back?"

"You want me to go back to the Moore mansion"

Charles raised his eyebrows, pointing at several large suitcases in the corner.

"Richard has already packed all my luggage and sent them here this morning."

"Wait..what? Do you intend to continue living here?" I asked.

"You look really lonely, so I figured I’ll keep you company."

Charles’ eyes were filled with affection when he looked at me.



"Lonely? Are you sure you’re not talking about yourself?" I asked.

"Well, i’m indeed very lonely," he mumbled.

"My Dad will never agree to let us be together."

Right after I finished my sentence, I averted my gaze from him to avoid his eyes

"Caroline, can you please help me persuade your father? I’m begging you."

Charles looked at me with pleading eyes.It was hard to ignore the fact that his eyes were brimming with
hope.

My heart skipped a beat.I couldn’t stand to see him like this.

Normally, he was proud and dignified.

But now, he was humbling himself before me.

"Mommy, don’t forget our agreement."

James showed me his pinkie finger to remind me of the promise we made last night. I smiled at him to
comfort him.

Perhaps it was time for me to try and trust Charles again and slowly learn to accept him.

I clenched my fists.

Though I was hesitant to do it, I still nodded in response to him.

Suddenly, he held me so tight.

He was as happy as a convict that had been pardoned of all his crimes.



"That’s great, Caroline!"

Charles broke into a hearty laughter; his chest trembling slightly.

Feeling a lump in my throat, I hugged him back.

He stared at me for a while before he leaned closer to my ear.

"Kiss me," he whispered.

I looked up at him, uncertain of what he meant "I’m the one who always takes the initiative.This time, I
want you to make the first move."

His voice was laden with lust, but it was also filled with affection.I stood on tiptoe, raised my head, and
kissed his lips.

Thereafter, I turned around shyly.

I kissed him ever so gently, just like a dragonfly, skimming along the water and leaving tiny ripples on a
river.

"Daddy, you’re doing something bad with Mommy again," James said abruptly.

Charles covered James’ eyes.

"You’re aware that we’re doing something bad, so why are you still here? Elena, take this boy to
school."

"Dad, you’re always so mean to me!"

James protested as he put his hands on his hips.



But in the end, he conceded.He took his school bag and went out.

Tracy and Janet took one look at us and proposed that they’d take the twins to the park.

Thereafter, only Charles and I remained in the villa.I put my arms around his neck.

"Kiss me again,"

Charles said in a domineering tone, I stood on tiptoe again, nibbled on his earlobe and said, "This is so
hot."

All of a sudden, he grabbed the back of my head and pinched my chin.

His eyes were filled with lust.

"Charles…"

Just as I was about to say something, he cut me off.

"Caroline, are you full?"

"Huh?"

"If so, then it’s my turn to eat!"

Before I could utter another word, he sealed my lips with a kiss, His kiss was passionate and
possessive.

I couldn’t even breathe.

I tried to push him away, but he was still unsatisfied. He kissed me even horder, with no other choice.I
kissed him back and leaved over his chest, feeling numb Noticing that he was slowly pushing my



clothes up.

I realized what he was about to do, so I stopped him at once I held his hands and said, "Charles, let’s
not do this in the living room."

Regardless of my warning, he wanted to kiss me again.

Thus, I turned my face away and said, "What if the children come back later?"

Charles sighed, carried me, and took me upstairs.

He then opened the bathroom door and placed me in the bathtub.

While he was kissing me, he turned on the faucet to fill the bathtub.

He snickered and said, "If you don’t want to do it in the living room, how about the bathroom?"

As I lay in the bathtub, he got on top of me.

Because of this, I had no way to escape.

In a trembling voice, I pleaded, "Charles, take it easy."

He leaned over to my ear and tried to seduce me with his husky voice.

"Kiss me, Caroline." I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him passionately.
