Chapter 621: But She Can&##x27;t Turn Back

Harry Hood was too lazy to correct her form of address.He only said, "If you've had enough, go out."

Olivia Hood immediately ran faster than a rabbit.

For a moment, the ancestral hall quieted down.

Harry Hood looked at Charlotte Clarke and said in a low voice, "Aunt."

Charlotte Clarke slowly opened her closed eyes and her voice trembled slightly.

"What you asked William Hood to tell me is true?"

"Every word is true."

Charlotte Clarke was silent for a long time before she said, "I only have one condition.Don't tell
Jameson the truth."

"Even if I don't tell him, he can find out.Moreover, those people deliberately led him to River City to let
him know these things."

"Then hide it from him for as long as possible."

Harry Hood said, "William Hood has already returned to the South City to investigate this matter.There
will be news in a few days"

Charlotte Clarke sighed silently.

"So what if we find out who was behind the scenes? What happened back then has already
happened.It can't be changed."

"Aunt, don't worry.I will keep an eye on him and not let him mess around."



"Now that the South City and River City have become like this, everything is because of the choice I
made back then.I am the Hood family’s sinner, and even more so..."

"Aunt, you don't have to blame yourself too much.If he hadn't coveted the Hood family's power and
deceived you, things wouldn't have become like this."

Thirty years ago, Jameson Proctor's father, Noel, came to River City to discuss business.He met
Charlotte Clarke and started a fierce pursuit.

At that time, Charlotte Clarke was still called Charlotte Hood.She had lived in the Hood family since she
was a child.

Because of those unwritten rules, she had never left River City.

Therefore, she was very interested in this handsome man who came from the South City.

As time went by, many people from the Hood family could not accept the Hood family's inexplicable
rule.

They wanted to go somewhere other than River City to take a look.

Perhaps it was also because of this that after being bound for a long time, she accidentally met Noel.

Hearing how well he talked about the outside world, Charlotte Hood began to yearn to leave this place
more and more.

At that time, in order to win her favor, Noel also did many touching things.

With this, she became even more determined to leave River City and follow him to the South City.

On one hand, it was for freedom and on the other hand, it was for love.



But what she did not expect was that Noel already had a wife and children in the South City.

When she followed him to the South City with great interest, Noel began to think of ways to ask her to
persuade her father to expand River City's business, at the same time develop his own power and
connections.

Charlotte Hood could only tell him that since she left River City, she had already cut off her relationship
with the Hood family.

The Hood family would not recognize her again, nor would they do business to the South City.

It was also at this time that Noel knew that the Hood family's rules.

His face suddenly became much uglier, and he did not come to see Charlotte Hood for several days.

Charlotte Hood didn't know why, but when she found out that she was pregnant, she was so happy that
she couldn't wait to tell him the good news.

When she came out of the hospital, she went directly to the Proctor Group to find him.

There, she saw Evie Rowland for the first time and Jeffery Proctor, who was only a few years old.She
stood there with the pregnancy report.

When she recalled Noel's recent cold attitude to her, she instantly understood what was going on.

Noel's ambition was no longer satiated in the South City.

Although the Rowland family was good, compared to the Hood family, it was nothing.

From the moment he approached Charlotte Hood, he had already made up his mind to let Charlotte
Hood come with her.



She was the only daughter in the family and her father doted on her.

It was absolutely impossible for her to live alone in the South City.

In this way, as long as the Hood family came to the South City, it would be completely under his control.

He only needed to slowly infiltrate, and sooner or later, River City would be in his hands.

As long as the plan was successful, he could kick the Rowland family away at any time.

But he never thought that the Hood family had such a rule.

This made his efforts for several months become nothing.

At that time, his heart was still filled with hatred.

He hated why she did not tell him all this earlier.

After Charlotte Hood understood all this, she did not ask him for any explanation.She returned to the
house she lived in, packed up her things, and left.

Even if she knew that this was a scam.

But she could not turn back.She also hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to give birth to the
child in her belly.She could no longer go back to the Hood family.

This child was her only hope to live.

Charlotte Hood changed her surname and went to a place where no one would know.

Charlotte Hood changed from a young lady who was dressed in luxurious clothes and had no worries
about food and clothing.



In an instant, she became a lonely and helpless mother who could only rely on herself to live.

She gritted her teeth and did not know how many days and nights she had endured.

However, although the days were bitter and hard, the child finally grew up day by day.

The mother and son lived in that place for several years.

Until one day, Noel in a suit suddenly appeared in the dilapidated alley.

After many years, there was still no sign of regret on his face, but he seemed to have aged a lot, and
his white hair could be vaguely seen.

He told Charlotte Clarke that his son had a car accident and his legs were paralyzed.

In the future, he could only sit in a wheelchair and could not afford to inherit the Proctor Group's great
responsibility.

He threatened and tempted Charlotte Clarke, saying that after taking the child back, he would raise him
as the Proctor Group's heir.

Otherwise, as an illegitimate child, he would solve it himself to prevent other people from finding him
and using him.

Charlotte Clarke had insomnia for a few nights.

Looking at the dilapidated house, she covered her face and cried.

She did not know why things had turned out like this.

Her child should have been raised with luxury, but he had to suffer with her in this place.



Charlotte Clarke agreed to Noel's request and sent the child back to the Proctor family.

She also left the South City, just like she left River City at that time, without turning back.

As he said, Noel treated this child as the future successor of the Proctor Group, but at the same time,
he had always been afraid of the Hood family's forces, afraid that this child would be recognized by the
Hood family someday.

This was the reason why he kept trying to control and fear Jameson Proctor.

But in the end, he did not get anything, and instead, he was paralyzed.

Charlotte Clarke collected her thoughts and looked at the memorial tablet in front of her.

At this time, the sound of footsteps came from outside.

Harry Hood said, "Aunt, I will go first."

When he reached the door of the ancestral hall, he looked at the person who came.

In the end, he did not speak and walked away.

Jameson Proctor stood outside the ancestral hall and looked at Charlotte Clarke's back.

After a few minutes, he walked in and knelt behind her.

Hearing the noise, Charlotte Clarke turned around and whispered, "You don't have to kneel."

Jameson Proctor's expression did not change.

He said lightly, "I'm not kneeling to them."

He said, "If you kneel, I have no reason to stand."
