Chapter 174:
Charlotte didn’t suspect her, so she just nodded, “Okay, go, I’ll wait for you here.”
Hearing that, Diana waved her hand, “No, you don’t have to wait for me. Go downstairs, I’ll be fine in two minutes.”
Charlotte, “…Okay then, I’ll wait for you downstairs.”
Charlotte then grabbed her phone and purse and went downstairs.
When Charlotte left, Diana was finally relieved.
She felt she was lucky that Charlotte was not a scheming woman, so she left without any hesitation.

After closing the door, Diana opened the closet again and took out the suit she had put on the lattice.
She cut off the buttons and hung up the suit.
She flashed a smile after putting the button away in her purse.
The button had been removed, and Charlotte wouldn’t find out the truth, would she? Even if Charlotte came to see this closet, the buttons wouldn’t be there and she wouldn’t be suspicious.
However…… Diana’s face went grim again.
There was a button in Charlotte’s hand. She was not to give it back to her so soon.
It seemed that in addition to getting the two buttons in her hand, she had to find a way to get the one in Charlotte’s hand.
Charlotte arrived downstairs alone, and unexpectedly discovered that there were other people sitting at the table, including Reynold and the two brothers from the Moore Family. As she approached, they looked her way.
Reynold looked at her backside, “Isn’t Diana with you, why doesn’t she come downstairs with you?”.
Hearing that, Charlotte stepped forward and explained, “She’ll be down soon.”
“Okay.”
As the words tumbled out, footsteps were heard from behind. Diana approached with a smile, “Sorry, Reynold, I’m late. I accidentally sprained my foot a moment ago, that’s why I’m late.”
Hearing that, Reynold glanced at Charlotte and looked unhappy.
“Christina, Diana sprained her foot, why didn’t you help her down?”
“I…” Charlotte didn’t know why Diana changed her story. She was suddenly stunned. Diana took her arm and explained with a smile, “Reynold, it doesn’t matter, I asked her to come down first.”
“Well, sit down and eat. Diana, this is your seat.” Reynold deliberately pointed to the seat next to Manfred. Charlotte thought he wanted to pair the two people up, so she said nothing.
Diana was stunned for a moment and then sat down with a smile next to Reynold.
Charlotte wanted to sit next to her, but Reynold rebuked her directly, “Christina, sit next to Kennedy.”
Charlotte, “…Okay.”
She didn’t dare disobey Reynold’s order, so she slowly walked over to Kennedy and sat down.
Kennedy’s breath was so cold that Charlotte felt her neck grow cold after sitting for a while.
Reynold liked Diana and had been talking to her. Diana could talk to him. Then Reynold said directly, “Diana, how do you feel about Manfred?
Diana, “…”
Charlotte, “……”
Reynold wanted Manfred to be with Diana.
If Charlotte had a good marriage and Diana liked her, it was good for her to marry Manfred, so they would be related, but her marriage to Kennedy would end sooner or later. Besides, based on the Moore Family situation, it was not the best choice for Diana to marry into the family.
Diana flashed an embarrassed smile, “Manfred is a gentleman, he’s good.”
Reynold was pleased and touched his beard, “Diana……”
“Grandfather.”
Manfred who had been quiet suddenly interrupted his words. He said softly and decently, but there was no smile.
“I have something to deal with at the company. I must go to the company first.”
Reynold was disgruntled, “You haven’t finished eating, why do you have to go to the company now?”
Manfred smiled, “Grandfather, I have something important to take care of. Today is the anniversary party, so there are a lot of things to do. I have to go, I’ll be back to have dinner with you if I have time.”
With that, Manfred got up and walked straight out before Reynold said a word.
“Come back!” said Reynold angrily, but Manfred didn’t seem to hear him.
The others sat uncomfortably where they were.
Charlotte grabbed the chopsticks and felt embarrassed.
She hadn’t expected Manfred to disobey Reynold in public. Reynold had cut to the chase and it was clear to everyone what Reynold would say next…….
And he left without further ado.
While Kennedy was defiant, as if it had nothing to do with him.
Reynold got angry and snorted, “You let Manfred do all the stuff in the company?” Hearing that, Kennedy looked at him.
“What are you saying?” Kennedy sneered “Reynold, do you really think he left because he was busy?”
“Or what?” Reynold got angry and his eyes widened. Sure he understood why, but he wanted to take his anger out on Kennedy.
Kennedy didn’t want to argue with him, but put down the chopsticks, “Looks like someone wants him to go to the company now.” He then turned his wheelchair and left.
Charlotte, “……”
Diana was stunned and then stood up, “Reynold, we’re leaving too.”
With that she made a glance toward Charlotte. Charlotte stood up awkwardly, “Reynold, we have to go to the company.”
She followed Diana to leave together. Diana smacked Charlotte once, “Don’t you push it?”
Charlotte pursed her lips and shook her head. “He doesn’t need me to push him.”
“You’re so…he’s in a wheelchair, at least help him.”
With that, Diana stepped forward to push Kennedy’s wheelchair.
“Mr. Kennedy, let me help you.” Her voice was soft as a flower.
Kennedy smelled her perfume and then frowned. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Charlotte behind, flashed a wicked grin and nodded.
“Okay, thanks.”
Charlotte, “……”
She felt bitter in her heart.
She bit her lower lip, clutching the corner of her dress with her hands.
Why did Diana always help her? She was a bad person, why didn’t she stay away from him?
The more she thought about it, the more depressed Charlotte became.
She didn’t even know she was mad at Kennedy or Diana .
