The Amazing son in law Chapter 265
At that moment, Loreen felt as if she had been struck by a bolt of lightning!
She gazed at Charlie, realizing she was thrust into an utterly unexpected scenario.
Unbeknownst to Charlie, Loreen had recognized him as her savior.
Charlie merely smirked after dispatching the Butcher Brothers.
The Butcher Brothers? Despite their intimidating name, they were nothing more than a couple of wild dogs!
Zachary’s eyes were wide with fear.
For years, the Butcher Brothers had wreaked havoc, claiming countless lives and never tasting defeat.
Everyone in the southern region dreaded them.
Who could have imagined that the Butcher Brothers would meet their end at Charlie’s hands today? Zachary found this utterly unbelievable.
Was Mr. Wade really that formidable?
Meanwhile, Charlie glanced at the two lifeless bodies on the ground before turning to Loreen, who seemed lost in thought. He gently reminded her, “Loreen, since your cousin has already hired the Butcher Brothers to kill you, it’s likely he will try again. You should be cautious about your safety in the coming days, and it might be wise to hire a bodyguard for protection.”
Loreen regarded Charlie with a complex expression. After taking a moment to steady herself and catch her breath, she bit her lips and murmured, “How am I supposed to find a suitable bodyguard on such short notice…”
Loreen was wrestling with her emotions.
On one hand, a family member—her own cousin—was out to kill her. On the other, the mysterious man she had fallen for turned out to be her best friend’s husband.
Loreen felt tormented by this truth, overwhelmed by despair and helplessness.
Adding to her turmoil, Claire had no idea that Loreen harbored feelings for her husband.
In an attempt to console her, Claire stepped closer and embraced Loreen, gently patting her shoulder. “Loreen, try not to worry too much. Since Charlie is capable of fighting so well that he defeated the Butcher Brothers, you can always ask him for protection in the future. Just stay aware of your surroundings, and if you ever feel uneasy, you can call him to help!”
Claire believed it was only natural for Charlie to protect her best friend, given his impressive skills.
Little did she know that Loreen was in love with her husband.
Initially, Loreen felt a wave of disappointment. However, upon hearing Claire’s words, her heart began to race with excitement and joy.
She didn’t feel disheartened that the man she secretly loved was Charlie; rather, her feelings only intensified.
In fact, she viewed Charlie as a superhero for saving her life not once, but twice! Without him, she would have faced disaster.
This realization deepened her affection for Charlie, especially now that she had learned more about him, compared to the mysterious stranger he once was.
Loreen acknowledged that loving her best friend’s husband was morally wrong.
Yet, she understood that Charlie and Claire’s marriage was a result of her grandfather’s insistence, and there were no genuine feelings between them.
Just a few days ago, during a conversation with Claire, she learned that they were still sleeping separately despite being married—Claire on the bed and Charlie on the floor.
