Chapter 2659
Max was quiet for a few seconds before answering her seriously, “It’s fine whether you’re
Lizzie or Charity. Anyway, I’ll protect you both.”
He would take care of Lizzie as though she was his sister. As for his love for Charity, he
would keep it deep in his heart.
Charity was momentarily dazed. Then, she sat up with difficulty and laughed awkwardly.
“Thank you for saying that.”
“Charity... Did you have a nightmare?”
Max gently smoothed her moist, black hair.
She was sweating profusely just now.
She was also mumbling some strange words.
“Perhaps I was hallucinating from the fever, but I think I saw Eliza, and she said she was
leaving.” Charity looked down at her hand. “You know, I’ve always had a feeling that she
hadn’t left and wanted to return this body to her. However, since I’ve dirtied it, Eliza
wouldn’t possibly want it back. ”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing her despondent and blaming herself made Max’s heart ache with pity for her. “No.
Lizzie is kind. She won’t care about it.”

Charity looked bewildered.
Max forced a smile and said, “I’ve spent more time with Lizzie, so I know her better. She’s a really pure and
innocent girl, or she wouldn’t have fallen for Monte’s sweet words. We used to talk on the phone, and she refused
to listen to my advice. When a man like Monte wants to get a woman, he knows to be gentle and spoil her. Lizzie
hadn’t been in a relationship before, so she was unaware of these wealthy young master’s tactics.”
Charity clenched her fists for a moment.
“By the time she was infatuated with Monte, he was already fed up with her. Eliza, who was still ignorant, simply
couldn’t withstand the blow.” Max sighed. “ She was too silly to kill herself for a man. She had forgotten how difficult
it was for Mrs. Robbins to raise her. Fortunately, you’re... living on her behalf.
Otherwise, Mrs. Robbins would definitely commit suicide too.”
After hearing that, Charity remained silent for some time. “This entire time, I’ve been avenging myself. When I
return, I’ll avenge Eliza’s death.”
Monte, huh?
She had interacted with him once before.
However, Chester was targeting her at that time, so she was too busy to deal with Monte.
“Go ahead. I’ll back you up.” Max glanced at her and said with a smile, “In fact, I’ve always wanted to take revenge
for Lizzie. However, because of my unique identity, all I can do is hide in the dark. Besides, I know nothing about
business. I think I’m quite useless sometimes.”
“Who says you’re useless? You got me all that manpower, which made things convenient for me. Otherwise, I
wouldn’t have been able to do many things.” Charity’s pale lips curled into a smile.
“Alright. Just lie down.” Max wanted to help her lie down.
Yet, when he touched her soft and slim waist, his hands felt as if an electric current was coursing through his whole
body.
He never thought that a woman’s waist could be so slim.
Having been spending most of his life in wars, Max was inexperienced in relationships. For a moment, his handsome
face turned hot.
Luckily, he was tanned enough, so it was not visible.
He tried his best to conceal his embarrassment with a shy smile. Then, he said, “I’m not
capable in many areas, but I do have quite some manpower. After I return from my holiday,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI’ll arrange for some skillful people to stay by your side. They’re experienced fighters.”
Charity was dumbfounded. As she was about to open her mouth, Max chided, “Don’t turn me
down.
Otherwise, I’ll let Mrs. Robbins know. I’m sure she’ll come over to look after you in person.”
“Stop threatening me with Lizzie’s mom.” Charity glared at him helplessly. Her clear, dark
eyes were not as cold as before because of the fever. On the contrary, they looked softer.
Max’s heart softened right away. “I have no choice. Since Eliza has left, it’s your duty to take
care of her mom. The Jewell family isn’t easy to deal with. What if Chester gets someone to
deal with you? Although he’s in jail for the time being, the Jewell family has trained many
capable people.”
Charity fell silent.
She was well aware of that point.
For example, Ken, who worked for Chester, used to be a mercenary overseas and had killed
many lives.
“Great.”
Max touched her head after noticing that she was quiet.
When Charity glowered at him with her dark eyes, he said solemnly, “Your hair is pretty
greasy. It’s high time you washed your hair.”
