Chapter 1597
The village chief corrected them, "Mr. Jordan is a nice man. He won't be like you ladies." "What!?" One of the women felt insulted and yelled, "What are you saying, you silly old woman? If it wasn't because of this poor thing, why would Mr. Jordan get angry?" "No. We must kick this poor woman out!”
Just as a few of them were about to push Charmine away, a tall figure appeared before the door, yelling, "Shut your mouth!”
The woman ceased and stopped the moment they heard the voice, turning to see that it was Adam. Those who were frowning instantly plastered a smile on their face.
The bigger woman wanted to look good in front of him, thus she said, "Oh, don’t get angry, Mr. Jordan! We'll kick out this poor thing now!"
With that said, Adam's face turned even darker. It was as if a storm was approaching; he was ominously furious.
He glared at all of them. "Do not speak lowly of her anymore, or I won't forgive you!"
Since Charmine did not want her identity to be exposed, he must not make it too explicit.
Everyone was shocked and remained transfixed on the spot.
What? Was Mr. Jordan speaking up for this poor thing?
What was wrong with him? He yelled at them for her and did not find her disgusting at all?
Zoe, on the other hand, followed him back, and when she saw him speaking up for that poor woman, she found it unbelievable.
What was the matter? Did he...have his eye on this beggar of a woman?
D*mn it!
She was the prettiest woman in this village! She would not allow anyone to snatch her spotlight from her!
The village chief looked at them and said, "As I said, Mr. Jordan isn’t this kind of person! He's angry at how all of you came after Charmine!"
The crowd thought of how polite he was, and it all made sense.
He was a nice man. Why would he get angry just because she was poor? If he was this kind of man, he would not have come to boost their economy.
The women instantly stopped harassing Charmine, and they turned around to explain themselves to Adam. "Sorry for the misunderstanding, Mr. Jordan. We'll stop berating her. Let's go-she's not worthy of our time."
Not wanting to spill more of the truth, Adam looked at Charmine and Chris before going out.
Zoe stood outside the window of the kitchen and glared at Charmine. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Curse this freeloader of a woman!
Even though Charmine was prettier than her, she was poorer!
Mr. Jordan stood up for her out of pity!
The village chief saw the way Adam looked at Charmine, and she could tell something was going on but did not ask. "Let's continue cooking," she piped up.
"Okay." Charmine had a calm face and continued watching the fire with Chris.
Everyone stopped harassing Charmine for the sake of Adam. However, nobody treated her well, and they all ignored her.
Only the village chief took care of her and Chris. The table was ten meters long. Adam sat at the front seat, while Charmine was at the end of the table.
Adam always kept an eye on her, while Zoe had her eyes on Adam all the while, sitting across him. She saw how he kept an eye on Charmine.
Ugh! Was he interested in that newcomer?
What if he asked this woman to be his secretary and turned her down?
What would she do?
