Not an Ordinary Shoe Sole Maker 23. Why Are You Afraid?
Before Charlotte could open her mouth to reply to Beatrice's words, Cecilia snapped back first, "Yes, there's no need to ask again, Beatrice. It looks like she doesn't have any money."The two women continued to stare down at their brother-in-law. Charlotte could no longer stand hearing her husband insulted, but Shane said, "Sorry, we'll go to the room first. Charlotte is tired, she wants to rest for a while."Shane took his wife's hand who was looking at him in confusion. The look in her eyes clearly showed her unwillingness to leave."Huh? Mom and Dad said you went by online taxi. How are you tired?" Beatrice said with narrowed eyes.Cecilia also looked at her sister and brother-in-law without blinking and then chuckled, "Oh, it must be because the online taxi wasn't full? Because money is tight?"Charlotte was still silent but her hand, which was being grasped by Shane, strengthened as if she was trying to overcome her anger through it."Ih, then there's no need to hesitate to tak

"That's right, Sis. I know it by heart," Cecilia said.Beatrice was even more astonished, "Where did you get the money to buy such nice clothes?"Cecilia clucked her tongue, "I don't know, but I'm sure it couldn't have come from being a shoe repairman."Beatrice nodded, seemingly agreeing with Cecilia's statement. "I suspect that Shane got the money from other sources.""Let's pretend we don't know first, then we'll tell mom and dad when we find out. How about that?" Cecilia said.Beatrice nodded and looked at the contents of the bag again. But there was nothing else in it.Meanwhile, Shane, who had just taken a change of clothes, asked his wife, "Why don't you show your jewelry, dear?"Charlotte, who was cleaning up their dirty clothes, replied, "At first I wanted to show it off, Shane."Shane nodded, "So why didn't you?""Afraid they wouldn't believe that the jewelry was real?" Shane guessed.Charlotte shook her head quickly and grimaced before answering, "I wasn't afraid that they

Charlotte again nodded confidently, "Sure, Shane. I want to fulfill my duty as a wife."Shane smiled so softly and looked at his wife in such a deep gaze that Charlotte became mischievous."Shane, don't look at me like that!" Charlotte said whose face had turned red.Shane chuckled, "Why? Can't you look at your own wife?""Well, it's not like that, I just-"Charlotte could not continue as suddenly Shane's index finger was pressed against her lips making her even more nervous than before.One of her husband's other hands pulled her hair back. Somehow Charlotte's heart started beating many times faster than it should.She also saw her husband who began to move his head closer to her. Charlotte unconsciously gripped her own hand out of nervousness.She automatically closed her eyes slowly. However, something unexpected happened. A soft voice sounded in her ear, "Don't be nervous, dear!"Hearing Shane's last sentence, strangely managed to make the lulled Charlotte regain her consciousne

Charlotte was on the verge of tears, but she tried hard to hold them back. Without saying a word, she nodded at her husband's invitation.Shane quickly took his wife by the hand and picked up his briefcase and left the house quickly.The couple didn't see Barbara outside, but unfortunately bumped into Charles who gave them a disapproving look."What's the hurry?" Charles asked as he carried cleaning tools."Afraid of being late, Dad," Shane replied.Charles snorted, ignoring Shane and instead turning to his daughter, "Did your mother tell you about the shop capital, Charlotte?"Charlotte let out a long sigh, not expecting to be asked that on the street in front of their house."Dad, we'll talk about it later!" Charlotte said softly in a pleading tone.Charles chuckled, "Why? You don't want to provide capital for your parents, do you?"Charlotte's father's tone was clearly raised as if he wanted people in the neighborhood who happened to be passing by to hear what they were talking abo

Shane smiled at his father-in-law and said, "You just need to specify the amount, we will prepare it."Charles frowned in surprise and immediately turned to his daughter, "Is your husband joking or what? Are you trying to fool me or what, Kirana?""Wow, it's bad if it's like that!" another villager said.Charlotte did not want to remain silent and immediately replied, "Shane has said that, so it must be serious, Dad. It can't be a joke.""Where did he get the money?" Charles asked.Charlotte was almost impatient. But even though she didn't know herself she could only answer, "The money is definitely from his job. You just have to accept it."She looked at her husband and hoped that what he said was true. She saw him smile and give a small nod and she felt reassured."Already, Sir. Shane just said it, we'll see if the amount is correct or not.""If it's a lie, it's too much."One man nodded vigorously, "That's right, that's right. What if we become witnesses? If Charlotte and her husba

Faye laughed dismissively, "Oh my! I'm really surprised. You are proud to have a husband who's a shoe solver.""Huh, don't be like that!" Abby said, who had just entered the employee's storage room, joining them. She walked up to Charlotte and said to Faye, "You can't be like that."Faye raised an eyebrow, looking surprised by Abby's words. The look in her eyes seemed to say 'How come you're defending her?'However, her astonishment only lasted for a moment because she then saw Abby embrace Charlotte suddenly and said again, "Charlotte is already an old maid. How thankful is she for a mate, instead of not getting married?"Faye instantly smiled with satisfaction at that, while Abby turned to Charlotte who seemed fine with the insult. "Isn't that right,Charlotte? You must be really happy to be able to get married too. Yes, even though she only got a shoe repairman," Abby said, flashing a sweet smile that was meant to mock Charlotte.Charlotte casually removed Abby's hand from her sh

Charlotte did not need to turn around to recognize the person with the voice. It was still the same person, Faye.And as expected, Abby next joined the woman as she added. "Charlotte, did you forget that your husband's profession is just a shoe repairman? Yes, there's a lot of unemployment, Charlotte.""Oh, yes too. His working hours are free." Faye responded with a chuckle."Not like our husbands whose working hours are fixed. Charlotte's husband can pick up now because there are fewer customers," Abby continued.Faye asked, "Is that so? Is your husband having fewer customers? Do you need help? How about getting my broken shoes repaired by your husband?"Charlotte still did not move to respond to the two people's words. She wanted to go straight home because she was too lazy to respond to the unimportant remarks. She finally just said, "Sorry, Faye. I don't think I can. Anyway, I'll go back first, Abby, Faye. My husband is waiting for me."Abby clucked her tongue and instead caught

"Really?" Charlotte asked again, still in a surprised tone.Shane nodded, "Yes, yes. You asked for that much." Shane answered with a casual expression."So where did you get it, Shane?" Charlotte repeated. The woman found it hard to believe. It seemed too strange to her. Oh, she thought that anyone would be suspicious of a husband who claimed to only work as a shoe repairman, but in fact had such a large amount of money.In fact, now the husband managed to earn ten thousand dollars in just one day. How could the woman not be suspicious?She had just been thinking about how much money her husband had spent. Now he added to her confusion by saying something that made her doubts increase dramatically."From work, Charlotte. Where else do you get it from?" Shane replied with a smile.Charlotte sighed, "Shane, I'm serious. From you ... repairing shoes? Can you earn ten thousand dollars in a day?"Shane immediately looked deeply at his wife. He tried to find something in her eyes and fin

Hearing the horrifying accusation, Charlotte immediately widened her eyes, "You can make it like that?"Meanwhile, shocked, Shane said, "Mom, I don't understand how you can think like that."Charles clucked his tongue in defeat at the words of his daughter and son-in-law. Instead, the old man said, "Shane. You are also a man."He stood up from his chair and looked at Shane as if assessing what his son-in-law was thinking. "And that's why I can also tell that you must be thinking of a foul plan to bring another woman into your household. Right?" Charles said with a slight glare.Barbara said again before the couple could argue, "You are, Charlotte. Wives, don't be so stupid and don't obey your husbands too much. Didn't you know you were being cheated on?"Mita was truly shocked by the drama that was usually presented on the television station. Unfortunately, now the drama was happening in front of her eyes and involving her. Oh, the young girl felt like she was on the set. She let o

Charlotte became increasingly uncomfortable and she then said to her husband, "Just a moment, Shane. Let Mita stop by for a moment. Earlier ... she was vomiting. When she's picked up, it's okay to go home." Shane was surprised to hear his wife's words so he asked, "Why did you vomit?""Well, Mita took the bus with me and it turns out she's never taken the bus before. So ... maybe because she was not used to it and was shocked that she vomited," Charlotte explained.Shane gaped and looked at his younger cousin with a shocked gaze. In his gaze, it was as if he was asking, 'Are you taking the bus? Isn't that wrong?'However, Mita casually answered her cousin's gaze by saying, "Look, Shane. I ... feel close to Charlotte and like being friends with her. So, even though I almost couldn't make it on the bus, I still wanted to come here."Then, the young girl again gave a look like a little kitten and said again, "I've been struggling to vomit like this, how come I wasn't given permission t

"Wait a minute, Wina. Why is this going everywhere?" Charlotte replied with irritation.Mita also knew and could sense that her sister-in-law was very annoyed with the person they were talking to.Wina clucked her tongue and responded, "Yes, since you got married, you really rarely go out. You never join our neighborhood activities. Well, if your husband doesn't forbid you, who does?"Charlotte exhaled and tried to be more patient again, "Gosh, Wina. Can you not guess about anything including the reason why I never go out anymore or participate in neighborhood events?"Wina rolled her eyes as if reluctant to listen but Charlotte continued to explain, "Just so you know, I can't participate in neighborhood events around here because I don't have time.""Ih, you're really busy, Charlotte. You've never changed, being the best and feeling better than everyone else," Charlotte said, sounding sarcastic.Mita was quite surprised by the words that so clearly said that Charlotte had always had
Not an Ordinary Shoe Sole Maker 84. A Friend
As if she had forgotten that she was with Charlotte, Mita focused only on enduring the nausea that began to attack her.Charlotte herself who was watching the girl out of concern immediately took a plastic bag from her pocket."Are you nauseous, Mit?" Charlotte asked in a tone that sounded very worried.Mita swallowed her saliva with difficulty. She seemed to know that she was not well due to the constant shaking that had caused her stomach to churn.So when she heard Charlotte's question, she quickly nodded her head.Charlotte immediately offered a black plastic bag which made Mita even more nauseous. The girl subtly refused the object offered by her sister-in-law.Charlotte understood that and did not take offense. She then looked outside, "It's okay, we're about to arrive. Just hold on!"Mita nodded her head weakly this time because she really could barely hold back her nausea.The girl held her stomach as if commanding her body not to vomit before she reached their destination bus
Not an Ordinary Shoe Sole Maker 83. A Big Secret
Before Faye could reply to Charlotte, the young woman suddenly heard one of her close friends at the minimarket speak, "Never mind, Faye. When we debate with Charlotte, we lose."Faye clucked her tongue but then she nodded in agreement, "Oh, that's true. It feels like we never win when we argue with her.""Yeah, that's why it's useless so whatever Charlotte and her allies want to say," Abby said, who then pulled Faye's hand away from the area. Mita just shook her head at the behavior of her two coworkers and let out a long breath.The girl commented, "I wonder! They don't like you that much, Sister. How strange!" Charlotte just chuckled in response and instead asked Mita to help her with something else so that they would no longer discuss the matter. The day of preparation for the event held by the big company ended smoothly. Charlotte was quite exhausted when she said goodbye to her coworkers before she left the minimarket. Her husband could not pick her up so she walked alone t

Cecilia and Percy were silent when they heard Charlotte's words as if they realized that even though they knew Charlotte was laughing at them, they could not argue anymore. Therefore, Charlotte casually said, "Well, I guess we have to excuse ourselves first, Dad, Mom."However, before Charlotte could pull her husband's hand away, he gently said, "Honey, wait a minute. I have something to give to mom and dad."Charles and Barbara looked at each other in confusion but they didn't respond and remained silent. Shane reached into his backpack and pulled out a white envelope and placed it next to his father-in-law's plate. "Dad, this is the money you asked for yesterday," Shane said.Barbara glared in shock, while Charles glanced at the envelope with a surprised look. Cecilia and Percy, meanwhile, only glanced at it. However, Shane didn't wait for his in-laws' reactions and instead got up from his chair. The young man said, "Excuse me, Dad. Charlotte seems to be tired and needs to rest
Not an Ordinary Shoe Sole Maker 81. You Freak!
"Why should I be ashamed of my profession? Everything I do is halal and without cheating others," Shane said.Charlotte looked at her husband whose calmness was worth two thumbs up. "You freak! Having such a lowly profession, how come you still look proud," Cecilia said, openly insulting her brother-in-law. Shane smiled faintly and responded, "I am of course proud because even though my position is only that of a shoe repairman but ... I never bother others and I am independent."Surprisingly, Shane's words made Percy angry. In fact, Cecilia looked at Shane with an angry glare. "Independent? What can be considered independent? You and Charlotte are still staying at mom and dad's house." Cecilia said with a dismissive look. She then turned to her husband, "Look at me and Percy. We ... can be called independent because we have our own house and ... the house is in both of our names."But after saying that, Cecilia heard Charlotte laugh suddenly. "What the hell? Why are you laughing
Not an Ordinary Shoe Sole Maker 80. Percy's Company
"Why are you asking about Percy's company? You wouldn't know where his company is either," Barbara said in a mocking tone. Charles, who was not looking at Shane, also said, "Yes, even if you were told by Percy about the company where Percy works, you wouldn't know. So, why would you know?"Charlotte, who was beginning to see that her parents were beginning to act unfavorably toward her husband, let out a long sigh.She also looked at Percy and Cecilia who looked proud of themselves. In fact, she now understood why only she and Shane were invited to the event. Her sister Beatrice and her husband were not invited. Actually, she already felt strange when the thanksgiving celebration was held at her parents' house instead of Cecilia and Percy's own house. It turned out that it was because Cecilia and Percy were probably not sure if she and Shane would want to come to their house. The reason is that their purpose in inviting the couple was just to show off and that is now very clear i

"Brother, do you have amnesia or something?" Mita replied in a tone that sounded annoyed. The impatient Shane massaged his temples from dizziness but still responded, "There, hurry up. Tell me what you want, Mita. There's some work I need to get done right away."Mita clucked her tongue, "Oh, you're really busy being a person, Shane.""It's busy, not pretentious," Shane replied, whose patience was already running thin with his younger cousin who was really testing his patience. The young man gritted his teeth and held back his irritation and said, "If you don't speak within five seconds, I'll hang up the phone."Hearing a threat that sounded serious, Mita quickly said, "You know, Shane. How can you just hang up. I want to talk too.""Well, hurry up and don't take too long," Shane said.Shane took a deep breath and had even started smoothing his hair to overcome his irritation. "Shane, there's no way you wouldn't know about our company anniversary, right?" Mita suddenly said in a to
