Zelda crashed into Chuck's embrace and she immediately flushed. She was busy with her work just now and had never imagined that Chuck would suddenly appear. And he had even entered her office.
Chuck hugged her for a short while. Zelda blushed hard and she was flustered, so she could only let Chuck hold her like that.
Chuck was stunned as Zelda was very beautiful. She had put on makeup and wore a standard professional suit, which outlined her perfect figure.
Chuck held her in his arms and, of course, he could feel it.
With a squeak, the door closed itself.
They were alone in the office and the strange atmosphere in it was so delicate that Chuck was suddenly reminded of the other two times he had done it with Zelda...
"Chuck, why are you here?" Zelda asked with a red face. She wanted to tell Chuck that her restaurant was going to launch on this day, but she knew that Chuck was back in college and he might be busy. Otherwise, he might be accompanying Yvette, so how could he have the time to come and support her?
Hence, she did not phone Chuck.
"Chuck, Chuck," Zelda called as she felt something poking against her and her face turned a shade redder. She reached out to lock the door of the office and whispered in Chuck's ear, "Are you thinking about something?"
In fact, in this situation, Zelda was also recalling the other two times with Chuck.
Chuck was embarrassed. He really had no choice because the atmosphere was too misleading. For men, some women were unforgettable for the rest of their lives. And for Chuck, Zelda was that woman. She had genuinely made Chuck feel something indescribable.
At that time, Zelda had done something that Yvette, who had been with Chuck since childhood, had never done before.
Chuck certainly could not forget about it.
The atmosphere was getting more and more tense. Therefore, Chuck quickly let go of her waist and stopped his mind from wandering. Zelda looked at Chuck with her beautiful eyes and was not angry. "Come and see me here next time, you men always like it here," Zelda said.
Chuck was so embarrassed that he did not know how to react. It was indeed a place where fantasy always occurred.
Forget it, maybe he should ask Zelda how she felt today. There was no problem with the business as the restaurant was fully seated as soon as it was opened. After all, Zelda had opened many chain restaurants, so there were countless regular customers and many would come to support her with just a few phone calls.
"I'm doing well," Zelda sounded a little tired when she replied. She had not slept well for the past few days. Chuck thought Zelda must be tired, so he dragged her to let her sit down.
"What are you doing?" Zelda blushed. Chuck would not do anything to her, but why did he pull her over to sit down?
Following that, Zelda could feel Chuck massaging her shoulders. She sniggered teasingly, "Very professional."
Chuck was ashamed of the relationship he had ended up tangled with Zelda. At first, Chuck wanted to be Zelda's partner but now, it would not be happening.
"What is Yvette up to lately? I haven't seen her around," Zelda asked casually. Zelda still remembered the slap Yvette had given her very distinctly.
"She has her own business to attend to," Chuck replied and stopped massaging. Zelda turned her head to him and said, "Go on, your massage is much better than the blind massages, you..."
Zelda blushed and stopped talking. She suddenly knew why Chuck had stopped and she was both happy and disappointed at the same time.
She then sighed and stood up, saying, "Did you come to see me just to talk about this?"
"What else can I talk to you about?" Chuck tried to cover up awkwardly. Zelda smiled slightly and said, "You don't have to hide anything in front of me. You can ask me about other things."
Chuck had no other questions, but the atmosphere was becoming more and more ambiguous. Chuck was worried that he would end up doing something that he could not control. He restrained himself and replied, "I..."
Thump! Thump!
There was a sudden knock on the door outside and a voice interrupted them, "Hey, the steak has been served. You can come out and eat it now."
It was Quinn's voice. Zelda frowned. She turned to look at the door before staring at Chuck and asked, "Did you come with her?"
"Yes," Chuck nodded. He did not expect Quinn would come looking for him. Yet, it was understandable, Quinn and Zelda were not on good terms. How could she give up this opportunity to make Zelda angry?
"Chuck, you have nothing to do with her, have you?" Zelda probed. She did not think that there was anything between them. After all, Zelda clearly knew Quinn's character and she did not like men who were younger than her.
Not to mention that Chuck was ten years younger than her, so how could Quinn possibly like him?
