Chapter 697  A Kind Reminder

"Since you're talking to me as Sabrina's father, I should call you Uncle Charles.

"So, Uncle Charles, I think you might have misunderstood me…"

Connor whispered to Charles.

"You don't have to tell me this now. Tell me, why did you deliberately get close to my daughter?"

Charles shouted angrily.

"I don't have any ulterior motives. I didn't mean to get close to your daughter. Before I inherited this inheritance, I was indeed a poor student.

"Not many people know about this inheritance, so if they don't know my identity, that's not peculiar. I don't want too many people to know my identity because this will affect my normal life!"

Connor said slowly.

"Then, what's going on between you and my daughter?"

Charles calmed down a little and asked Connor in a low voice.

"Sabrina and I are just ordinary friends. We've only known each other for less than half a month. Moreover, I already have a fiancée. The condition for me to inherit this inheritance is to be with my fiancée, so I won't have any thoughts about other women..."

Connor continued.

Charles looked at Connor and was stunned again. Then, he frowned and asked, "Did you just say that you already have a fiancée?"

"That's right!"

Connor nodded and continued, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Thomas Morgan now..."

Seeing that Connor didn't seem to be joking, Charles believed what Connor said. Then, he continued to ask, "You're not with my daughter?"

"Of course, not!"

Charles looked at Connor and hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice, "Since you're not with my daughter, why did you give her such an expensive gift? Do you dare to say that you have no other thoughts about my daughter?"

Connor lightly shook his head.

"..."

Charles looked at Connor and hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice, "Since you're not with my daughter, why did you give her such an expensive gift? Do you dare to say that you have no other thoughts about my daughter?"

"An expensive gift?"

Connor looked at Charles with a puzzled expression.

"The garnet bracelet you gave Sabrina on her birthday!"

Charles reminded Connor.

"Is that garnet bracelet very valuable?"

Connor frowned and asked helplessly.

"That bracelet is a Phoenix Bracelet. It's worth tens of millions."

Charles replied in a low voice.

"Phoenix Bracelet?"

A trace of helplessness flashed across Connor's eyes, and then he said softly, "Uncle Charles, you must have a misunderstanding. That garnet bracelet was actually given to me by Madison Phillips, but I didn't know that the bracelet was so valuable. I've always seen it as an ordinary bracelet…"

"Then, why did you give it to my daughter?"

Charles asked Connor.

"I forgot to prepare a birthday gift for Sabrina that day, so I gave the bracelet to her. However, her friends said that the bracelet I gave her was fake, so I didn't refute it because I didn't know the origin of the bracelet. If I really gave such an expensive bracelet to her on purpose, how could I not refute it when others said that the bracelet was fake?"

Connor said to Charles in a speechless tone.

"Is what you said true?"

Charles asked Connor in a low voice.

"Everything I'm saying now is true. I see Sabrina as my sister. I don't have any thoughts about her, not now and not in the future, so your worries are unnecessary!"

Connor said calmly.

"..."

Charles looked at Connor and hesitated for a couple of seconds. Then, he whispered to Connor, "If what you said is true, then I apologize. It's just a misunderstanding on my part!"

"It's okay. You're just concerned about your daughter. I can understand that!"

Connor said lightly.

"But I hope you can remember what I told you just now. If you really like my daughter, I can accept you pursuing her openly, but I can't accept you lying to her. Do you understand what I mean?"

Charles looked at Connor and continued.

"I understand!"

Connor nodded.

"Alright, as long as you don't hurt my daughter, I'll still be in charge of all the Salem region. But if you dare to hurt my daughter, I don't care who you are. Even if you're my boss, I'll make you pay!"

Charles said in a low voice.

Connor smiled helplessly when he heard Charles's words. Then, he said lightly, "I can promise you that I won't hurt your daughter, but I also hope that you won't tell Sabrina about me because I don't want too many people to know my identity."

"Alright!"

Charles immediately agreed.

"Also, I've just inherited the inheritance, so I don't know much about the company. So, you can just communicate with Thomas about the work situation in Salem..."

Connor looked at Charles and said softly.

"Mr. McDonald, there's something I want to remind you of…"

Charles looked at Connor and said in a low voice.

"What is it?"

Connor was stunned for a moment and asked in a puzzled tone.

"I know Thomas Morgan is your right-hand man now, but I think you should familiarize yourself with the company's business as soon as possible. After all, you're the boss of the company. There are some things that you have to do yourself. You can't trust anyone too much."

Charles looked at Connor and said earnestly.

"Are you worried that Thomas will harm me one day?"

Connor frowned and asked Charles.

"Although I had a conflict with Thomas Morgan, I know him very well. He won't do anything to let you down!"

Charles said calmly.

"Then, why are you telling me this?"

Connor asked in confusion.

"I'm just saying this to remind you not to trust anyone too much. It won't do you or our company any good!"

Charles paused for a moment before continuing, "You are still young and might not understand what I mean. However, you will understand what I mean sooner or later…"

Connor looked at Charles and said nothing.

Charles slowly stood up and said to Connor, "I'll be leaving now!"

"Alright!"

Connor nodded.
