Chapter 178 Try to Please Her 1/4 The next morning , Charlotte was jolted awake by a sensation in her arms .
When she opened her eyes , she found Mabel lying beside her , struggling to wiggle her way up .
Surprised , Charlotte exclaimed , Sweetheart , what are you doing here ? As soon as Mabel saw her awake , she froze .
Ms.
Lottie , did I wake you ? Im so sorry .
No , Charlotte quickly reassured her .
I woke up a while ago .
I was just curious about what you were up to .
Mabel blinked , her eyes wide .
Ms.
Lottie , I couldnt sleep last night and overheard some things .
Charlottes heart raced immediately .
This was the Hardwick Villa , after all .
If anyone caught Mabel wandering around , it could lead to trouble .
Mabel hesitated before sharing what shed overheard .
As Charlotte listened , she couldnt help but find it amusing .
Did Camille really think she wasnt her biological daughter ? Did she not see the resemblance ? Chapter 178 Try to Please Her 2/4 Charlotte looked much like Camille ; anyone could tell they were mother and daughter at a glance .
Camille actually didnt think she was her daughter ? Does she hate me that much ? Charlotte thought , her heart sinking , and her expression turned cold momentarily .
Sweetheart , dont take it seriously , she said softly , running her fingers through Mabels hair .
If youre not happy here , we can move to Rose Villa or go stay with Diana , okay ? Mabel shook her head .
I want to stay and protect you .
Touched , Charlotte pulled Mabel into an embrace and kissed her on the forehead .
Just then , Julius walked in , the sight instantly tightening his lips into a thin line .
He stepped forward and said to Mabel , My mom needs to wash up and have breakfast .
Let her go ! Mabel let out a small snort before planting a kiss on Charlottes cheek .
Ms.
Lottie , see you later .
Okay , Charlotte replied , watching Mabel leave before turning her attention to Julius .
I have a question for you , she said , her expression hardening and her tone losing its previous softness .
Julius suddenly felt nervous , gripping the hem of his shirt .
What is it ? Chapter 178 Try to Please Her Are you trying to please me ? Charlotte asked .
3/4 I … Julius instinctively wanted to deny it , embarrassed at the thought .
Hed never tried to please anyone before , yet here he was , making an effort for Charlotte .
He pressed his lips together , unable to meet her gaze .
Why ? Charlotte pressed on in confusion .
You were so cold to me before and even wanted me to divorce your dad .
Julius fell silent .
He couldnt quite articulate his feelings .
In short , seeing Mabel receive the affection he once had made him unhappy , and he wanted it back .
To him , that love should belong to him alone .
Noticing his silence , Charlotte let out a soft sigh .
Dont bother anymore .
I wont respond to you .

Her rejection stung , and Julius eyes suddenly brimmed with tears .

Why arent you like that with me ? Seeing him cry , Charlotte felt calm .
Im gentle with Mabel because shes good to me .
I can be good to you too … Julius started to say , but as memories of his previous behavior flooded back , he fell silent , tears streaming down his cheeks .
Chapter 178 Try to Please Her 4/4 Just then , Camille walked in and , spotting Julius in tears , rushed over to comfort him .
