Emily felt a little uneasy with an extra person watching her from behind. "I'm not very good at playing, I'm afraid I might weigh you down."
Carson immediately showed a touched expression and patted his chest. "This is the first time someone has cared for me like this. Girl, you're really too kind!"
Emily stared at him dumbfounded.
Charlie glanced at him and said to Emily, "Don't listen to his nonsense. He's said this to more than twenty other girls!"
Everyone at the table laughed, and Carson sighed. "Charlie, we're both the same, can we stop making fun of each other?"
Charlie sneered, "Who's the same as you? I've never said anything so disgusting!"
The others laughed even harder, and even Estelle's eyes were bent with laughter.
Charlie took the opportunity to take a photo with his phone and sent it to Jonathan. "Can't you see how happy we are? Are you sure you don't want to join?"
In the photo, everyone was laughing. Estelle was sitting by the window, the blooming wisteria outside casting a glow on her. Her profile was delicate, her eyes slightly curved, and her smile was pure and lively.
Jonathan didn't reply, so Charlie put his phone aside and started to play cards.
They were playing a game called Bereaved Poker, where the loser gets a turtle stamp on their forehead.
Emily really didn't know how to play, fumbling with the cards in her hand. Carson leaned over to help her arrange the cards and taught her a few tricks.
Emily was focused, and didn't notice the two of them getting closer.
Charlie glanced at them and didn't say anything.
Emily was the first one to lose the round. Charlie laughed, "Carson, If it wasn't for your meddling, Emily wouldn't have lost so badly. Go bother Josiah and the others instead, stop messing around here!"
Carson let Yvonne stamp the turtle on his forehead, looking determined. "Today, I'll keep this mark right here, not just for my own pride, but also for my dearest Emily’s!"
