Chapter 77: Little Friend of Older Brother
Max saw Charlotte looking bewildered and suddenly realized he might have been too harsh in his tone.
In fact, he found his anger rather inexplicable.
“I just feel,” he paused for a moment, then spoke again, his tone slightly softer and somewhat coaxing, “since we’ve become husband and wife, if you encounter any difficulties, you should tell me.”
“Charlotte,” his voice became even gentler, “I am your husband. I’ve said that I’ll protect you. It’s not an empty promise, but my commitment.”
Charlotte gazed at the man in front of her, her eyes flickering.
She had always been used to being alone, handling everything and facing every difficulty by herself.
Now, Max told her that he would protect her.
“Brother!” Charlotte revealed a touched smile, then, like a little girl, extended her arms and hugged Max in front of her.
She nestled into his embrace, smelling the pleasant and cool fragrance from him, whispering, “Thank you, and I’m sorry… I won’t let you worry in the
future.
Charlotte didn’t dare to tell Max everything, after all, she held many secrets. But she would try not to make Max angry, like she did today.
Max was caught off guard but didn’t resist, allowing Charlotte to hug him. In fact, his hands instinctively moved upward, involuntarily hugging the girl in front of him.
“Like a little girl…” Max felt that Charlotte at this moment was exceptionally childlike.
“That’s because I’m also Brother’s little girl,” Charlotte replied sullenly.
Max’s eyes darkened, as if her casual words had suddenly struck his heart.
“Cough…” At this moment, Lance, who had been sitting in the driver’s seat, couldn’t help but pretend to cough and then spoke, “Mr. Foster, Madam, should we head back?”
Just how, Lance felt like he had turned into a huge light bulb, it was too awkward. He couldn’t hold it in any longer and had to speak up to interrupt
the two.
Charlotte’s cheeks reddened, feeling like she was on fire. She immediately loosened her arms and stepped back from Max.
She had actually forgotten there was someone else inside the car!
Just then, the phone suddenly rang.
It was a call from Vanessa.
Charlotte answered the call.
“What on earth did you do at the Larson family? The old master of the Larson family actually said he wants to come to our house in person. Did you annoy someone again?” Vanessa started firing questions as soon as she spoke.
“What did I do, you’ll find out when he comes,” Charlotte furrowed her brows, seeming a bit impatient.
After ending the call, she turned to Max and said, “Brother, I’ll go to the Bellerose Family for a bit.”
There were some things she needed to clarify.
Otherwise, the entire Bellerose Family might think she had committed some unforgivable crime!
“Alright,” Max didn’t say much, just nodded in agreement.
At this moment…

Chapter 77: Little Friend of Older Brother
Old Mr. Larson was feeling quite anxious.
Just now, he had called the Bellerose l’amily to inform them that he would visit later. Unexpectedly, right after hanging up, he received another call.
The call was from a prominent figure in the Foster family.
As the foremost affluent family in United States, the Foster family’s current limelight was on the two illegitimate sons, the eldest and the second young
master.
This call was from a confidant of the Foster family’s eldest master.
He informed Mr. Larson that the attack on Harry was orchestrated by the Foster family’s eldest master, unrelated to anyone else. He also instructed him to discipline Harry properly, or they will face the consequences.
Larson felt utterly desolate upon hearing this; he couldn’t comprehend why his grandson had incurred the wrath of the Foster family’s eldest
master.
However, what he didn’t know was that many trusted subordinates and confidants of the Foster family’s eldest and second young masters were actually under the control of Max Foster.
Max Foster… the inconspicuous and enigmatic fourth son of the Foster family, had long infiltrated his influence into every corner of the Foster family.
This call was a signal from Max.
