Charles silently observed Daniel for a second.
Daniel was the first boyfriend her daughter had gotten— maybe the first man she had been interested in.
Although he had been aware of mess she created to pursue Daniel, Charles was willing to turn a blind eye and ignore it out of his love for his daughter as long as his daughter didn't go too far.
He believed it was a temporary obsession she will get over.
From what he had learned of Daniel, he grew up with a miserable background. Despite the desperate situations, he had never done anything drastic and maintained a clean record.
Daniel was well-mannered, worked hard, studied well, and had talent. With a bit of grooming, anyone can see he would be able to reach great heights.
Instead of taking advantage of Emma's status, he maintained his distance and bore his burden on his own.
Charles thought he was a pitiful child.
