Once Kathleen had spoken, both Madien and Amily were both stunned as if they had been struck by lightning, and they stood dumbfounded in place.
The two of them were still waiting to see Kathleen expose Charlie’s lie directly, but to their surprise, Kathleen bowed to him respectfully and even addressed him as ‘Master Wade’!
Madien instantly broke out in cold sweat out of fright, and his whole back was instantly wet. He could not help but look at Amily blankly. He also had a questioning look in his eyes in addition to shock.
This was because he really could not figure out what the hell was going on.
Could it be that Claire’s young husband was indeed a Feng Shui master?!
Amily was also trembling in fright!
In her eyes, Kathleen was a figure who was as unattainable as God, but unexpectedly, Claire’s husband could make Kathleen bow and speak to him so respectfully!
Then... Hadn’t she just been asking for trouble earlier, then?!
Just as the two of them were terrified and were at a loss at how to react, Charlie looked at Kathleen and said with a smile, “I definitely had to come to support my wife’s graduation ceremony. Why do you have time to come here today, Miss Fox?”
Kathleen hurriedly said, “Master Wade, I also heard that Claire’s graduation ceremony is today, so I came over to congratulate her!”
Both Madien and Amily turned pale with fright!
Madien was so frightened that he could feel a tingling sensation on his scalp. He quickly waved his hand and said, “No, no, I don’t have any doubts about you!”
After saying that, he hurriedly pointed at Amily, who was flustered, and blurted out, “Amily is the one who was blind and did not know any better! She has been questioning your identity, so I was also led astray by her...”
Amily was immediately so frightened that her heartbeat rose rapidly. She did not expect that her boss would push the responsibility to her.
Just as she was about to explain herself, she suddenly saw Madien winking at her frantically. So, she could only say fearfully, “I’m sorry, Mr. Wade, it’s all my fault. Please do not hold it against me.”
Charlie was not surprised at all when he saw Madien asking Amily to take responsibility for this matter. So, he said, “I generally do not like to hold a grudge against others.”
