Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 287

However, Charlotte was Charlotte after all. She would never doubt Shane's words.

Holding back her discomfort, she forced herself to raise her head and look at the people on the other side. Shane smirked and pressed his lips on her collarbone. He kissed it hard, leaving a hickey.

As Charlotte exclaimed in surprise, she saw the eyes of those people from the Stevens Family.

They looked at her and Shane with traces of disdain in their eyes.

"They probably think that we're an ordinary couple." She lowered her head and reported to Shane.

"They won't."

"Huh?"

"The price of the VIP pool here is enough to buy a small company. They were probably looking at you with disdain and disgust."

It really seemed to be that way. Charlotte nodded and asked, "Why is that?"

Shane straightened his body and sat on the steps next to the pool. He put her on his lap and said, "They probably think that I've rented you."

"Maybe they think I don't know that they're looking at me? But there must be something wrong with their eyes. They're so close and have been staring at us for so long, yet they still haven't figured out who we are?" Charlotte didn't dare to move, but she felt weird sitting on him.

She wanted to break away from his arms, but she couldn't.

"There are mists," Shane said.

"Then how can we see their faces clearly?"

"Because of the density and distribution of the mist."

Shane reached out his hand and then retracted it. "Can you see it?"

When she saw it, Charlotte nodded her head.

The moment he reached out his hand, his fingertips seemed to be enveloped by a thick cloud of mist. And when he retracted his hand, the mists moved backward along with his movement.

Therefore, when he reached out his hand, the farther part of his hand was blurrier than the closer part. That was to say, the mists here were denser than those on the Stevens Family's side. So, in certain positions, it was natural for her and Shane to see them, and they wouldn't see the two of them.

Just when Charlotte thought that it was astonishing and wanted to look at the other side again, she met Rick's eyes.

In a split second, Charlotte knew that Rick had recognized her, but he quickly looked away. He continued to chat and laugh with the Stevens Family, pretending as if he hadn't seen her.

"Shane, I think Rick might have seen me." Charlotte knew that Rick had recognized her, but...he acted as if he didn't.

Shane leaned backward as he glanced at the three members of the Stevens Family.

Their expressions were the same as before. Rick probably hadn't told the others about this matter.

"Let's leave before they catch us." Shane was just about to stand up.

"Hey!" Charlotte immediately clung to him.

"What? Sad to let me go?" He looked at her with amusement.

Sad to leave him? She just couldn't get out of his arms!

However, he got up and kept walking forward. Not to mention leaving, she couldn't even change a position, so she was forced to lie in his arms.

"Young couples nowadays really don't care about the occasion." A voice came from the pool at the Steven Family's side.

Charlotte buried his head in Shane's arms.

Rick, who had been holding Kendall in his arms, looked at Shane with an intense gaze. Under the water, his hands were already clenched into fists.

Shane didn't react too much and directly left with Charlotte.

The two separated in front of the locker rooms.

Seeing this, Rick stood up and said. "Mr. Stevens, Caleb, I'm going to buy some drinks. What would you all like to drink?"

"Buy drinks? It seems like you can only buy that at a takeaway shop. Bring me a cup of milk tea if you can." Caleb's lips twitched. "Sorry to bother you, Rick."

"No problem at all. What about you, Mr. Stevens?" Rick asked with a smile.

"The most ordinary tea will do. Don't add sugar."

"Okay. Kendall, as usual?"

Kendall nodded at him and held his palm reluctantly. " Rick, do you want me to go with you?"

Before Rick could open her mouth, Caleb said impatiently, "He's only going to buy some drinks. Why do you have to follow him?"
