Chapter 35 Cupcakes

As she spoke, her lips enclosed Nelson's fingers. Nelson felt the dampness on his fingertips. She licked them like a little animal, gentle and tingling.

Charlotte suddenly noticed the presence of his fingers and her face instantly turned red. She hurriedly moved towards the window, but Nelson's hand on the backrest pulled her in tightly, encircling her in his embrace. He narrowed his eyes, observing Charlotte's flustered expression and said, "Are you so scared of me? Just a moment ago, I helped you out a lot. Are all you kids this ungrateful?"

Charlotte thought about what had just happened and immediately felt guilty. Frowning, she softly explained, "It's not like that... I just..."

"Just what?" Nelson asked in a low voice.

Charlotte bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and said softly, "I'm shy..." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Nelson took the opportunity to pinch her cheek and said, "You feel shy so easily?"

Charlotte puffed up her cheeks, got angry for a moment, and decided not to talk to Nelson for the next three seconds.

The car made a turn, and Charlotte saw rows of dessert shops.

The desserts here were very famous, and of course, they were also quite pricey. Charlotte's pocket money was practically non-existent, so she could only watch her sister, Vivian, and their friends come here to eat back then. But now, seeing them, she felt a bit tempted to have some.

"Stop." A somewhat weary voice of Nelson sounded, and the car immediately came to a halt.

Nelson casually commanded Waylon, "Buy two portions of dessert."

"..." Waylon thought to himself, "Mr. Clark, do you think it's appropriate for someone like me, big and burly, to wander around a cute little dessert shop?"

Nelson pretended not to notice his gaze, and Waylon could only get off the car helplessly.

Charlotte curiously asked, "Do you like desserts, Mr. Clark?"

Nelson didn't answer.

Charlotte opened her mouth, suddenly realizing that she was just a child bride bought by the Clark family. She didn't have the right to ask questions, and she shouldn't inquire about Nelson's preferences.

She had accidentally heard Jonathan mention before that people like Nelson had to be cautious in every aspect of their lives. A small oversight could lead to a deadly outcome. If someone found out about his preferences, poisoning would be too easy.

Nelson had been too good to her, which made her lose her sense of boundaries...

Waylon acted quickly and came back with two cupcakes. One had a sky-blue packaging, and the other had a tender pink packaging-both perfect girly colors.

Charlotte couldn't imagine what Nelson would look like while eating these sweet and soft cupcakes.

However, Nelson didn't reach out to take the cakes. Instead, he said to Charlotte, "Hold onto them."

"Oh."

Charlotte obediently nodded, extending her fair and tender hands to receive the two cupcakes. She carried them for Mr. Clark, who loved sweets but was too embarrassed to be seen holding them.

Ah, upon careful consideration, Mr. Clark had a heavy burden of being an idol. After all, in legends, he was a fierce character who could slay anyone in his way. If people found out he liked eating cupcakes, wouldn't they laugh themselves to tears?

Charlotte felt a bit sympathetic and decided to be even gentler with Mr. Clark.

As the car arrived at the Clark family's mansion, Waylon clicked his tongue and said, "Mr. Clark, Madame Clark is here."

Charlotte clearly saw the traces of impatience and annoyance in Nelson's delicate eyes.

Waylon got off the car first and pretended to bring out a wheelchair from the trunk. Charlotte suddenly had an idea, so she put down the cupcakes and went around to the other side to assist Nelson in sitting on the wheelchair.
