Flash Marriage: Pampered by Mr.Bigshot

Chapter 857 - 856: Fallen Leaves Return to Their Roots, I Want to Go Back

No one can say for sure what the outcome would be if Yancy Hastings were still in the picture, between him and Fiona Sutton.Speaking of Fiona Sutton, she was now being forced to stay at Charles Northwood’s apartment.

But unlike before, Tara Jameson was also in Charles Northwood’s apartment.

Tara sat awkwardly next to Fiona, both looking up at Charles Northwood who was busy in the kitchen, each with different thoughts.

Tara lowered her head, clenched her fists, wanting to storm out.

But...

She simply couldn’t leave.

"Have a little something to eat, ease your stomach."

Charles brought out chicken soup, a bowl for each person.

Fiona began drinking without a second thought; she wanted to take good care of herself.

But Tara just kept staring at the bowl of chicken soup.

Her eyes slightly misty.

It had been a very long time... since she last had chicken soup; when was the last time?

"I’ve already told you before, I want to live at the dormitory, staying here is inconvenient for you. You can’t always be sleeping on the sofa."

Fiona felt a bit awkward, saying this in front of Tara seemed inappropriate.

"It’s fine, I’ve already found a new place, I’m moving tomorrow."

Charles didn’t give Fiona a chance to refuse. He carried on with his work after he spoke.

Fiona was stunned.

Suddenly she remembered, back in high school, the three of them had talked about.

When they started working, they’d rent a big house together, the three of them living in it.

But now, without even graduating, Nia Mitchell went and got married.

"You’ve found a new place, why didn’t I know?"

Fiona was taken aback, this news was too sudden.

Besides, he found a place to take care of her.

"If I didn’t tell you, how could you know? You don’t cook, the canteen food isn’t nutritious. So it’s better for me to take care of you."

Listening to his words, Fiona didn’t feel the way she imagined she would.

If only these words had been spoken before she had been involved with Yancy Hastings.

"I don’t need you to take care of me like that. I’ll be graduating soon; I plan to return to D City."

Fiona bit her lip, she had been considering this decision for a long time.

"What are you going back to D City for? You have no home there."

Fiona was an orphan, raised in an orphanage. In D City, she had nothing to hold on to.

Everyone thought she’d never return, but now she was...

"No home, but it’s my roots. I’ve thought about settling down there."

Fiona’s decision wasn’t made on a whim.

Seeing her determination, Charles found himself at a loss.

"That’s something to discuss after graduation; let’s talk about it later."

Without graduation, nothing was set in stone.

Fiona nodded, saying nothing more.

Tara sat aside, unable to hold back any longer.

"Did you force me to come here just to show me how good your relationship is?"

Tara looked up at Charles, then stood up.

"I think I should leave now, Professor Northwood."

Tara said, turning to leave, but Charles’s words reached her ears.

"If you walk out that door, I’ll release those photos."

Tara’s footsteps halted instantly.

Fiona’s eyes widened.

Photos?

****?

Oh my God, Charles Northwood, you... you...

Watching his usual gentle demeanor, never expected him to be so...
