Female Novel
Chapter 954
“Is she our friend from the orphanage too?” Jeff mumbled to himself.
He started to dig through his memories, trying to think of any fragments related to this beautiful girl.
Still donning the pretentiously polite yet smug smile on his face, he looked at Charlie and said, “Hey,you’re Charlie, right? Long time no see!”
Charlie grinned and said, “Butt Trumpet?”
Butt Trumpet was Jeff’s nickname back when they were in the orphanage. He used to be a chubbyglutton who farted a lot, and more importantly, he farted wherever he went and whenever he felt like it.He would fart in classes, during game times, during meals, and when sleeping.
At that time, everyone was troubled and in misery due to his farts, hence the nickname—Butt Trumpet.
Jeff’s face turned green when he heard Charlie mention his nickname, but before he could sayanything, a young man behind him chided indignantly, “Hey, Charlie, watch your tongue! How dare youembarrass our Manager Mowry right in front of everyone? Jeff is now an executive of a listed company!Pay some respect!”
Charlie squinted at the man who had spoken and vaguely recalled his name as Harry Chambers, oneof Jeff’s lackeys when they were kids. He didn’t expect that he would still take up the same role after somany years.
Charlie frowned and said flatly, “Oh, I’m sorry, I’m so used to calling him Butt Trumpet since we wereyoung, I just can’t help it.”
Jeff glanced at Claire and was a little agitated when she obviously tried to muffle her laugh upon themention of his nickname. He huffed angrily, “Hey, Charlie, I see that you’re doing pretty well yourself.What car did you drive over?”
Harry interjected instantly, “Oh, Jeff, you go overboard. I heard that he became a live-in son-in-law whomooches off his wife. It would be great for him to have a mouthful of hot food. How can you ask whatcar he drives, you’re humiliating him…”novelbin
“Oops, sorry, my bad!” Jeff slapped his forehead and said, “I’m sorry, Charlie, I’m quite straightforward,I hope you don’t mind.”
Inside, he grinned sinisterly and thought, ‘Huh, Charlie Wade, let’s see how you’re going to respond tothat!’
Charlie laughed out loud instead. “Haha, Butt Trumpet, I always thought that you loved to fart becauseyour intestines were straight, but I didn’t know that you are so straightforward just like how you fart. Is itthe trachea that is used to speak? Your trachea is like your intestines, so straight and smooth!”
Everyone laughed out loud at Charlie’s remark.
Jeff’s face twisted into a disdainful grimace. He didn’t expect Charlie to grab his straightforwardargument and turn it into sarcasm.
However, his main concern for the moment was that he didn’t want Claire to have a bad impression ofhim because of Charlie’s remark, so he turned to Claire and asked with a coy smile, “By the way, youlook quite unfamiliar, I can’t recognize you. Is it because I haven’t returned to the orphanage for somany years? Nice to meet you, may I know your name, please?”
Lisa chided, “Hey, Jeff, are you blind? Do you know who she is? She is Charlie’s wife!”
“What?!”
Jeff gaped in extreme horror as if he was struck by lightning. He couldn’t believe that the beautifulwoman, the woman whom he had fallen for at first sight, was actually Charlie the loser’s wife!
He turned his head stiffly at Charlie and eyed him. His Armani coat alone was more than enough to buytwo sets of Charlie’s cheap and lousy attire!
Then, he turned stiffly toward Claire who stood next to Charlie, tall and elegant. He couldn’t help butfeel extremely annoyed and irritated.
Damn it!
Claire was so pretty and charming, her body was exquisite and hot, she was the best among the best!She was hundreds, thousands, or even a million times stronger than those women he had met!
However, she was Charlie the deadbeat loser’s wife! Goddamn it!
