Substitute Bride and Her Husband Who Disappeared novel Chapter 197

As soon as Lily left, Nancy's expression turned cold. She gently pushed Charlie, wanting to get out of his embrace, but was firmly restrained by his strong arms.

She sighed helplessly, "She's already gone. There's no need to pretend anymore."

"Pretend?"

Charlie clenched his teeth and forcefully lifted Nancy up, causing her to sit on his lap amidst her surprise.

He leaned in and bit Nancy's nose as a form of punishment. "I'm being serious, and yet you think I'm just pretending?"

"Ouch..."

Nancy winced in pain and glared at him. "Hey, why did you bite me?"

"Biting you is nothing compared to what I could do!"

Charlie's deep eyes radiated a dangerous and wild gaze as he stared at Nancy like a beast stalking its prey.

"If it weren't for caring about your feelings, I would have punished you on the spot, Nan. You are so ungrateful."

"Um..."

Blushing from his words, Nancy lightly bit her lower lip and looked at him at a loss.

Even though she had never been in a romantic relationship before, she knew that with Charlie's dominance and methods, it would be easy for him to make her surrender. But he didn't do that.

Because he truly loved her.
