When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him Novel

Chapter 1678 Meeting His Parents

In the end, Charlotte was ultimately swayed.

She returned to her desk and informed Sven that she was busy that night, suggesting they should have the barbecue tomorrow instead.

At that moment, Sven was sitting in the car, somewhat puzzled by the message he received from Charlotte.

What came up? It seemed that Sven wasn't the type to pry too much. Despite his curiosity, he didn't ask further. He responded with a text: Okay.

That evening, Charlotte followed Eric back to his home.

Sven was watching from not far away. His subordinate, who was tagging along, couldn't help but ask, "Boss, isn't Ms. Talbot going back with you today?"

"She's occupied," Sven replied.

One of the subordinates exclaimed, "D*mn! She got into a luxury car."

Sven looked over, only to see a sports car speeding away.

At first, his subordinates were intimidated by Sven, but as time passed, they realized he was the type of

person who was stern on the outside but warm-hearted on the inside. They were no longer as fearful. One of them couldn't help but ask, "Boss, how come Ms. Talbot is suddenly riding in a luxury car?"

For Sven, a sports car worth tens of millions was nothing significant. However, when his subordinates asked about it, he still felt a touch of discomfort in his heart.

"I don't know." After giving an honest response, he settled into his own car.

The car he was driving now was quite understated, worth only two to three hundred thousand. It was the kind that wouldn't attract a second glance on the road.

As Cecilia's bodyguard, he did not need to drive a particularly fancy car, as it would draw too much attention.

Watching Sven get into the car, a few of his subordinates couldn't help but feel a sense of doubt creeping into their hearts.

"Could it be that Ms. Talbot and Boss quarreled?"

"That sports car looked really pricey. Could it be that Ms. Talbot has fallen for someone else? Boss is so incredible. How could she possibly..."

"What's the use of being impressive? In today's society, money is the most useful thing."

"You have a point. People nowadays are too realistic."

As they were engaged in their discussion, Sven was sitting in the car, overhearing their conversation.

He couldn't help but grip the steering wheel tightly, waiting for Cecilia and the others to get off work before following them back to the Smith residence.

Cecilia was unaware that Charlotte and Eric had left together. Upon arriving at the Smith residence, he noticed Charlotte's absence from Sven's car, which left him somewhat puzzled. "Sven, where's Lottie?"

OUMS

"She said she has something to do tonight and will be back later," Sven responded, seemingly calm. Only, the force with which he closed the car door was significantly stronger than usual.

"Oh, okay." Cecilia hadn't noticed that something was off about his expression.

Meanwhile, at Eric's residence, Eric's parents were overjoyed and took an immediate liking to Charlotte upon meeting her, showering her with all sorts of affection and concern.

Charlotte felt somewhat overwhelmed, but Eric quickly stepped in. "Mom, Dad, it's Lottie's first day here. Let's not interrogate her too much. If you scare her off, don't blame me."

Upon hearing that, Eric's parents quickly held their tongues, daring not to utter another word.

This was the first time their son had brought home a girlfriend. They couldn't just mess it up like that.

When the meal was served, both elders eagerly filled Charlotte's plate with food.

Charlotte was someone with a huge appetite, and she could eat a lot, even more than Eric.

"Mr. and Mrs. Palmer, the meal you made is truly delicious." As she ate, she simultaneously showered praises.

For someone who loved to cook, naturally, Alan and his wife found joy when others complimented their delicious meals.

Eric's mother, Ines, grew increasingly fond of Charlotte. "In that case, eat plenty. Feel free to come over and dine at our place every day. I'll cook for you."

"Thank you, Mrs. Palmer." Charlotte expressed her gratitude.

Alan and Ines noticed that the

atmosphere in the house shifted upon Charlotte's arrival, becoming lively and warm. They

enthusiastically served her food and picked out the best dishes for her.

When it was time to leave, they even gave Charlotte a generous monetary gift.
