Chapter 1802

Nanako wanted to say many things to Charlie, but she did not know where she should begin. So, she simply started telling Charlie about her childhood and past.

Although Nanako was born into a wealthy and influential family, she did not have a very happy childhood.

Her mother had died at a young age. Although her father never remarried, this could not make up for the shortcomings during Nanako’s childhood.

Moreover, Yahiko was always busy with work all the time, and he had very little time that he could allocate and spend with Nanako. Besides, Yahiko had always been a very serious and stern man. So, Nanako lacked a lot of love and affection during her childhood.

Nanako’s mother was a young lady from a very prestigious and traditional family, so when she was still alive, she would always teach Nanako in a very traditional way. Thus, Nanako would also follow in her mother’s footsteps and learn about tea ceremony, painting, embroidery, and needlework. She had even learned how to read poetry. It could be said that the Yamato Nadeshiko side of Nanako was given to her by her mother.

However, after her mother passed away, Nanako had fallen in love with combat and fighting. This was because she felt that she could temporarily forget the sadness and unhappiness in her life when she was practicing combat and fighting.

In the beginning, Nanako only practiced combat and fighting so that she could escape reality, but over time, Nanako began to fall in love completely with it.

After she finished telling him her childhood story, she chased after Charlie and asked him, “Charlie-kun, can you tell me a story of your childhood?”

Charlie smiled bitterly before he said, “When I was a kid… I experienced two extremes. I lived a very good life before I was eight years old. My parents were kind and loving, we were wealthy, and we led a worry-free life. However, my parents died unexpectedly when I was eight years old. After that, I became an orphan who was homeless out on the streets. I ended up growing up in an orphanage after that…”

“Ahh?!” Nanako was surprised when she heard this, and she said in distress, “I am sorry, Charlie-kun. I did not mean to…”

Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “It’s okay. You don’t have to apologize.”

Nanako replied emotionally, “If that is the case, I guess I have had a much happier childhood compared to you then, Charlie-kun. Although my father is usually very strict and stern with me, I know that he still loves me very dearly deep inside. However, he does not show his love and affection softly and gently…”

After she was done speaking, Nanako looked at Charlie before she said seriously, “Charlie-kun, in truth, I have already heard of your conflict with my father from Tanaka-san. The reason why I pretended not to know about it is simply because I did not want to make you feel embarrassed. However, I want to tell you that my father’s nature is not bad. If there is an opportunity, I honestly hope that both of you can talk it out and let bygones be bygones. I want the both of you to become friends…”

In truth, deep down in Nanako’s heart, she wasn’t hoping that Charlie would become friends with her father.

In her heart, she had always been dreaming that both Charlie and herself could end up becoming husband and wife in the true sense.

However, Nanako knew that Charlie was already a married man. So, she could only hide this kind of words and thoughts in the most secretive and deepest part of her heart without saying it out loud.

Charlie did not put too much thought into this matter at this time, and he simply nodded slightly as he said, “If there is an opportunity, I will do that!”

Nanako was immediately very happy, and she said seriously, “That will be great, then! However, Charlie-kun, I hope that you will not get me wrong. The reason why I am hoping that you can become friends with my father is not because of the four and a half billion US dollars. Charlie-kun, you should just keep the money for yourself instead of returning the money to my father!”

Charlie could not help but laugh as he asked her, “How can you turn your back on your father and help an outsider instead? Four and a half billion US dollars is not a small sum!”

Nanako blushed before she said softly, “It doesn't matter. After all, Charlie-kun, you saved my life and healed my injuries. So, we can just treat that sum of money as a token of appreciation from my father to Charlie-kun, then!”

Charlie could not help but laugh out loud as he replied happily, “If your father finds out about this, there is an eighty percent chance that you will seriously piss him off!”

Nanako stuck her tongue out, and she was about to talk when her cell phone suddenly vibrated.

She was a little surprised. “It is already so late at night. Who could possibly be calling me now? Could it be that the servants have already found out that I escaped?”

As she spoke, Nanako hurriedly took out her cell phone before she exclaimed in surprise, “Oh! It’s my Eminent Father!”
