Rebirth: Clinging to My Possessive Magnate

Chapter 1006: So Tired

"Does Auntie not like me?" Hayley Cole asked pitifully."Of course I like you, it’s just... this is all too rushed..." Charlotte Reed shook her head, speaking with some disapproval.

"Auntie, you’re so out of touch." Hayley Cole pouted, "There are people who get married within three days of meeting."

"Married in three days? That’s... possible?" Charlotte Reed asked in astonishment.

"Of course it’s possible." Hayley Cole said with a smile, "I’ve known James for so long, it’s no problem."

"But," Hayley Cole said with some worry, "will James marry me?"

"Well..." Charlotte Reed seemed to have just thought of this problem, and smiled wryly, "I really haven’t figured that out yet."

"Oh dear, Auntie, you say all these lively things but in the end, can’t you do anything?" Hayley Cole was so angry she almost cried.

"I... I was just speaking off the cuff, who would have thought of so much?" Charlotte Reed said awkwardly.

"Alright, let’s talk about this later." Charlotte Reed quickly changed the subject, "You, if you don’t want to go back, just stay here at ease. You don’t have to worry about James; he’s filial. With me and his dad keeping you here, he wouldn’t dare say anything."

"I’ll go talk to him again." Charlotte Reed said everything that needed to be said, and then left.

She went to James Reed’s room. As soon as the door was closed, Charlotte Reed’s face showed a satisfied smile: "I’ve hinted to her already, just don’t know if she can think of a solution."

"If she’s too foolish, I’ll hint to her again in a few days." Charlotte Reed sighed softly, "This Hayley Cole really isn’t the brightest."

"Mom, why do you want her to be that smart?" James Reed asked Charlotte Reed with amusement.

Hearing this, Charlotte Reed covered her mouth and laughed: "Exactly, it’s better if she’s a bit silly, less trouble."

As long as Hayley Cole is devoted to James Reed, then it’s fine. Being too smart might not be good.

Some people’s lives are just so "flavorful," always in a state of constant calculation and scheming. For those who have gotten used to living this way, it doesn’t feel tiring, instead, they find joy in it.

As for Sophie Wilson, even without using her brain, she was worn out: "Lucy, sister, sister-in-law... can we rest for a bit?"

Sophie Wilson collapsed on the couch in the mall, wishing she could glue herself to it and never get up.

When she went out, she specifically changed into sneakers, fully prepared, but... she realized she was truly an anomaly among women.

Why is it that Lucy Wells has been shopping for nearly four hours and is still full of energy, while she feels like she’s about to lose half her life?

Is there really such a big gap between people?

She asked herself if her physical stamina was surely better than Lucy Wells’, but why did she lose to her in shopping?

"Tired?" Lucy Wells asked with a laugh, sitting down next to Sophie Wilson, putting down her shopping bags, and taking out a bottle of water, handing it to Sophie Wilson.

Sophie Wilson grabbed it like a traveler lost in the desert who finally found an oasis, gulping down half the bottle of water.

If she weren’t worried about the negative impact on her stomach, Sophie Wilson really wouldn’t have been this restrained and could have polished off the whole bottle.

"Tired, yeah." Revived by the water, Sophie Wilson looked at Lucy Wells weakly, "Wow, aren’t you tired?"
