Chapter 1487

Subsequently, he turned his head to the maid and said, "Take her to wash up and temporarily arrange for her to stay in the guest room."

"Yes, Young Master."

After the maid finished speaking, she reached out to lead the child away.

Suddenly, the girl shook off her hand and silently stood behind Milton White, clutching his clothes, rejecting anyone other than him.

Milton White showed an air of displeasure, looking down at her without speaking.

After a brief standoff, the girl lowered her head in silence and followed the maid away.

Charles Carrington was taken aback.

"Milton, who is this child?" Chandler White asked.

Milton White’s face became pale, and he explained concisely: "An orphan in distress who will be sent to an orphanage tomorrow."

"Orphan? How did she meet you? How did you bring her back?"

Milton White was not willing to elaborate. However, his assistant who was following him behind, volunteered: "Young Master, it’s like this: this child’s parents both died in an accident. Coincidentally, the Young Master was there and sent them to the hospital, but they didn’t survive. Fortunately, the little girl was only lightly injured. After she woke up, she persistently stuck to the Young Master and wouldn’t let go. The Young Master had no choice but to bring her back."

"I see..." Chandler White smiled: "It seems this child may see you as her new parents."

As they spoke, Charles Carrington inadvertently noticed the red circle on Milton White’s wrist, very prominent.

Looking up, he met Milton White’s deep gaze.

"Did you come to see me for something?"

Charles Carrington came back to his senses: "Yes, we can talk after dinner. You look tired."

"Come this way."

Charles Carrington nodded and followed him over.

Arriving at Milton White’s private space, the surroundings were eerily quiet.

Only after the two walked in did a bit of life creep back into the place.

The pure white sofa was spotless, and nothing was on it, making it appear quite empty.

"Sit." Milton White poured a glass of water and handed it to him, then also poured one for himself.

Observing the fatigue on his face, Charles Carrington couldn’t help but ask, "Are you really not planning on finding a woman to cherish you? Look at you, you’ve worn yourself out over the past two years."

He smirked, ironically: "Why, did you come to introduce someone to me?"

Charles Carrington lowered his gaze and remained silent for a moment before asking, "What exactly is your relationship with my sister..."

"Don’t mention her." Charles Carrington cut him off lightly, took a sip of water, his gaze calm and indifferent.

"That USB flash drive, did you send it to her? What the hell are you trying to do?"

Milton White leaned back on the sofa, looking at him, and asked: "Did she send you here?"

"No, it’s me, her brother, who wants to share her burden. Do you know that her health hasn’t fully recovered and she’s still in an observation period?"

He fell silent, then suddenly laughed: "That’s not my business."

Charles Carrington couldn’t figure out his intentions, as if he had become a completely different person.

Moreover, he could faintly smell the scent of tobacco on Milton White.

He remembered that Milton White never smoked, but now...

Softening his tone, he spoke in the manner of a close friend: "Do you know some kind of way to help? Consider it as me owing you a favor. Can you tell me?"

Milton White twirled the glass in his hand, his thumb gently touching the surface. He slowly said: "I sent her the USB flash drive?"

"Wasn’t it you?" Hearing his tone, Charles Carrington fell into doubt.

"If it’s just for this matter, I’m sorry, I can’t help. I’m a little tired, please excuse me."

"Wait, Milton!"

He paused for a moment, asking: "You and Alex, is there really no chance of reconciliation?"

With his back to him, Milton White’s expression couldn’t be seen, but his voice was extremely cold: "The sin of love theft, intolerable under the same sky."
