Chapter 149 Having Fun in the Food Street

Nelson looked at Charlotte and asked, "Are you bored?"

Charlotte quickly shook her head and replied, "Not at all."

After staring at her for a while, Nelson turned to Michael and asked, "Where are you going?"

"To the amusement park."

"No, you shouldn't go there." Nelson immediately refused.

As someone told him before, amusement parks were ideal dating places for couples.

"...Why?" Michael looked puzzled and asked.

Charlotte was also confused and added, "Yeah, why?"

Nelson casually made up a reason, "It's not safe to go to the amusement park at night."

After thinking for a moment, he told Michael, "Take her out for a walk, but bring her back before nine."

Michael didn't mind changing plans and suggested, "I know a food street nearby. Let me take you there, Charlotte."

Charlotte agreed with a nod but still looked at Nelson, wondering why he suddenly seemed so at ease with her going out.

Nelson patted her head gently and said softly, "Have fun."

"Okay," Charlotte nodded and replied.

Michael hurriedly pulled Charlotte's arm and urged, "Let's go, let's go. We need to be back by nine, and it's already half past six."

Nelson watched as Charlotte was led away by Michael and slowly unbuttoned the obsidian cufflinks on his sleeves. He said in a cold voice, "Waylon, get the car ready. We're going to the President's Mansion."

"Yes, sir."

...

The food street Michael mentioned was quite far from Oswye Community, and it took half an hour to get there by car. Charlotte turned her head to look at Michael and asked, "Why did you take me out?"

Michael replied, "To return your favor. You helped me a lot last time, and I figure you have everything you need when you're with Mr. Clark, so I didn't buy any gifts. Instead, I wanted to take you out to have fun."

Charlotte said, "...It's not necessary. I didn't do much to help you..."

Suddenly, Michael turned to look at her and said, "I'm sixteen years old, and you're the kindest person to me besides my parents."

Charlotte was surprised. What? She didn't treat him that well.

How deprived of love must Michael have been since childhood?

Michael put his hands behind his head, looking at the roof of the car, and said, "Well, my dad is a workaholic and doesn't pay much attention to me. My mom is absorbed in her own world and loves my dad wholeheartedly, so she doesn't care much about me either. I was quite lonely when I was a kid. But I feel like you are kind to me."

Charlotte thought about their interactions and said, "I didn't treat you that well, actually."

Michael smiled brightly and said, "Maybe it's because you're good-looking." He leaned closer to Charlotte and added, "I always thought you must be very good-looking, and now I see that you're even more beautiful than I pictured."

Charlotte fell silent.

Okay, he was definitely a face-judger.

The lanterns and banners of the food street were hung high and could be seen from afar. The food street was crowded and busy. As they reached the entrance, they could smell the delightful aroma of various foods in the air.
