Chapter 362 Charlie’s Here Too 

In a flash, before I could even close the app, someone had already hit ‘like‘ on my post. Surprised, I figured it was a misclick, but when I checked, it was Idris. 

When did he start using social media so late at night? 

I remembered he was not a fan of social media and usually did not have them installed on his phone. Why the sudden like? 

Weird as it was, I was not nosy enough to ask. 

After a long, exhausting day, I was tired. 

I hit the bed and was out like a light in no time. 

The next morning. 

Early to bed, early to rise. I woke up, pulled back the curtains, and let the cozy sunlight flood the room, instantly lifting my spirits. 

It had been dark when I got here yesterday, but now, in the daylight, the sky was a clear blue, not the foggy haze of Lake City. It was an endless, vibrant blue, a stark contrast to Lake City’s barren trees and scattered leaves. Here, it was like stepping into another realm, with lush trees and wildflowers everywhere. 

Each city really did have its own vibe. 

After zoning out at the window for a bit, I headed down for breakfast. 

Madam Young was not around much. However, I bumped into her and Emily in the dining room. They spotted me and waved me over with warm smiles, and I happily joined them. 

After we settled into our seats, she casually checked in on me, wondering if I had gotten a good night’s sleep and if I was up for exploring later. 

I was still getting my bearings in this new place, but Emily chimed in with a suggestion to hit the botanical garden. She explained that while most cities start to look a bit gloomy this time of year, Tully City was an exception. Thanks to its warm climate, the greenery here thrived all year round, never changing with the seasons. 

I agreed, and Madam Young was on board too. 

Before long, the Young brothers showed up. Idris was all bright–eyed, obviously having slept well last night. Liam, on the other hand, had dark shadows under his eyes that screamed that he had a bad night. 

He caught my eye and managed a stiff nod. I shot him a quick, sympathetic smile in return. 

We did not dive into chitchat. Instead, I found myself watching Emily as she peeled shrimp for Ash, not even glancing Liam’s way. There appeared to have been some drama there the night before. 

“Shrimp?” Idris’s voice pulled me back, his eyes flicking to the shrimp I had been eyeing in Ash’s bowl. 

Caught off guard, I did not even get a chance to say no before a peeled shrimp landed on my

plate. That little surprise turned heads our way. 

I mean, it was not every day Idris showed this kind of affection. We had been married for a couple of years, and we were always pretty formal with each other, especially in front of others. This shrimp thing was out of the ordinary for us. 

The Youngs did not make a big deal out of it, despite it being unusual. They just gave us a quick look and went back to their food, all hush–hush. 

Feeling a tad awkward and out of words, I just focused on the shrimp Idris had peeled for me, while he seemed totally oblivious to the sudden spotlight and kept on with his shrimp peeling. 

After gobbling up five shrimps in quick succession, I worried I would be too full to eat anything else. I glanced over at him and blurted out, “I’m full.” 

Idris gave a brief pause, nodded subtly, and asked, “What’s on your mind to eat?” 

Before I could even muster a word, a familiar voice called out, “Yvette.”
