Helen nodded and pointed at Sophie, who was next to her, as she said to Claire, "Miss Wilson, letintroduce you to my daughter, Sophie." As she spoke, she also said to Sophie, "Sophie, this is Claire Wilson, the boss of the design stuthat I told you about." Sophie nodded slightly and said politely, "Hello, Miss Wilson!" Claire hurriedly said, "You don't have to callMiss Wilson. You can just callClaire." 4 As she spoke, Claire saw that Helen had already introduced her daughter to her. So, Claire naturally had to introduce her husband to them out of courtesy. So, she hurriedly turned her body sideways and said o Charlie, who was still in the car, "Husband, you should also cout and greet Aunt Dunn and Miss Schulz." In fact, Charlie, who was sitting inside the car, had already seen Helen and Sophie through the car's rearview mirror.
Just as he was thinking about quickly driving away, he would not have expected that his wife, Claire, would actually ask him to go down and greet them.

As soon as Charlie got out of the car, Sophie, who had excellent eyesight, immediately recognized him, and she nearly blurted out the word 'benefactor'. Helen was also very surprised. She would never have expected that the designer that she was working with would actually be Charlie's wife. 3 While the mother and daughter duo were still extremely shocked, Charlie hurriedly took the lead and spoke up, "Good morning to the both of you. It's really nice to meet you for the first time." 2 When Charlie said that they were meeting for the first time, Sophie and Helen instantly understood what he meant.
Charlie definitely did not want the both of them to reveal the truth that they were acquainted with him in front of his wife.
So, Helen hurriedly smiled and said, "The both of you are really an ideal match." Sophie stood aside without saying anything. She felt a little envious in her heart. At the stime, she could not help but look at Claife as she compared herself to Claire in her heart.
Claire was naturally very beautiful, but Sophie did not feel that she was any worse compared to her. If she were to take her family background into account, Sophie felt that she would certainly win over Claire by a great margin. 5 Claire did not know what was going on in Sophie's mind. When she saw that Charlie had already cdown and greeted Helen and Sophie, she looked at Charlie before she said fondly 'Husband, didn't you sayt that you still have something to do? You can go ahead and get busy, then. I also have to go in and go through the plans with Aunt Dunn." Charlie nodded, and he made use of the opportunity to go with the flow as he said, "Alright, then. I'll not keep you from your business." After he was done speaking, Charlie looked at Helen and Sophie as he smiled and said, "Goodbye, Aunt Dunn and Miss Schulz." 3 Helen and Sophie also bid him farewell politely before they accompanied Claire as they watched Charlie drive away.
When Claire saw that Charlie had already left, she said to Helen, "Let's go in then, Aunt Dunn." 3 "Okay." Helen smiled slightly before she led Claire into the courtyard in the old mansion.

As the three of them were walking, Helen asked with interest, Claire, e how did you meet your husband?"
Claire smiled faintly before she said truthfully, "My grandfather was the one who introduced my husband and I to one another."
"Your grandfather introduced you?" Helen was very curious, and she could not help but ask, "Then, how did the both of you get together?" Claire said somewhat awkwardly, "How should put it ... The both of us actually got married per my grandfather's request..." Sophie could not help but ask a little nosily, "Huh? So, the both of you did not get together freely after falling in love?" Claire bit her lip and said truthfully, "The both of us actually did not know or understand each other much before we got married..." Sophie was suddenly a little
