Chapter 1769

Nanako was stunned upon listening to Charlie’s unwavering remarks. She couldn’t believe that she could recover fully, but when she heard it from Charlie himself, she suddenly felt very confident and assured.

She smiled pleasantly and asked, “Can you truly heal me?”

Charlie nodded and said, “Yes, but before treating you, let’s dispose of these corpses first.”

Nanako quickly said, “I’ll call the housekeeper!”

“No need.” Charlie stopped her and said, “I had a little conflict with your father in Tokyo. If you inform the housekeeper about such a big matter, he will surely inform your father immediately, and things may get awkward between us.”

Surprised, Nanako asked, “Did you meet my father in Tokyo? What’s the conflict you have with him?”

Charlie shrugged and said, “It’s a long story. I’ll tell you all about it when I treat your injuries.”

Nanako stuck out her tongue cheekily and said with a smile, “I guess my father must have suffered a lot when he was confronting you…”

Charlie responded with a smile, “Not really, but he did lose some money.”

Nanako said with a smile, “It doesn’t matter. He’s very wealthy anyway, so it’s okay to lose a little.”

Charlie coughed and said, “He lost 4.5 billion dollars.”

“What?” Nanako was shocked and asked, “4.5 billion? You’re not kidding, right?”

Charlie smiled sheepishly, “No, it’s true. However, I haven’t thought about whether I want to let him lose so much yet.”

Nanako said without hesitation, “You don’t have to worry about him, Charlie-san. You can just consider this money as a token of appreciation from my father on my behalf. After all, you saved my life. My life must have cost more than 4.5 billion dollars.”

Charlie laughed. “You’re very generous. Aren’t you afraid that your father will be angry with you if he finds out?”

Nanako shook her head and said seriously, “If he dares to be angry with me, I’ll run away from home, go to Oskia to seek your refuge, and never come back!”

“Uh…” Charlie was speechless at once.

He wasn’t sure if Nanako was just joking or being serious. If she was serious, honestly speaking, he would welcome her wholeheartedly, but he wouldn’t know how to explain the situation to Claire.

Seeing Charlie’s hesitant expression, Nanako hastily said with a smile, “Charlie-san, I’m just kidding. You don’t have to take my words so seriously. Even if I truly wanted to go to Oskia, I will buy my own place in Aurous Hill and settle down by myself. I will not give you any trouble.”

Charlie sighed and said, “We’ll talk about this later. Let’s dispose of these six corpses first. I see that you have plenty of rooms in your yard, which one is vacant?”

Nanako pointed to the west wing and said, “That room over there is a storage room, but it’s been empty since I haven’t come back to live here for a long time.”

Charlie nodded and said, “It’s getting cold. I’ll send you back to your room before I get rid of these corpses. When I’m done, I’ll heal your injuries first. After that, you can inform the housekeeper and maids to dispose of the bodies properly.”

Nanako quickly asked, “Charlie-san, are you going to leave after the treatment?”

“Yes.” Charlie nodded. “I have to go back to Osaka after this, and I’ll return home after I settle my business matter in Osaka.”

Nanako drooped sadly and muttered, “Then I wish I’ll never heal…”

Charlie blurted, “Don’t talk nonsense. It’s bad luck.”

Nanako said seriously, “But that way, I’ll be able to have you here with me. You said it yourself that you won’t leave until you heal me.”

Charlie looked at her with a helpless smile and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely heal you.”
