Chapter 178 I Won't Show It to You

Charlotte paused for a moment and then casually responded, "Pink."

Nelson fell silent but suddenly said with a smile, "Little Lottie, you still remember that I like you wearing pink."

Charlotte was speechless.

At that moment, she wished she would rather be dead.

Thankfully, Nelson didn't say anything more. Charlotte's wardrobe had already been moved to his room. He opened a drawer, found what he was looking for, and gently knocked on the bathroom door. Charlotte opened a crack and looked as wary as a little squirrel. Nelson handed her underwear to her and said, "Here you are."

He grabbed her pink bra with his slender fingers. Charlotte didn't even dare to look at him and just took it over. She quickly closed the door.

Charlotte hurriedly put on his bathrobe and suddenly realized something. Since it was so embarrassing for her to ask Nelson to fetch her underwear, why not let him bring her pajamas over too?

Did she lose her mind just now?

She was finally relieved until she walked out of the bathroom and got her pajamas. She also told herself that it was no big deal, but her face flushed when she went out and saw Nelson staring at her with a teasing smile. Charlotte lowered her head and climbed onto the bed, saying, "I, I'm going to bed. Good night."

Nelson asked, "You're wearing the pink one I like. Aren't you going to show me?"

Charlotte said seriously, "I was just saying." She added, "And even if I wear it, I won't show it to you."

Nelson asked again with a smile on his handsome face, "What if I beg you?"

"No way!"Charlotte rejected his reasonable request and pulled the covers over her head. She said in a low voice, "I'm going to sleep; I still have classes tomorrow."

Nelson chuckled and reached for a military magazine on the bedside table. As expected, before he finished reading just two pages, Charlotte had drifted into slumber. She moved closer to him and hugged his arm before falling asleep.

Nelson put the magazine aside and watched her slumbering face. Suddenly, he felt drowsy and turned off the light. Only a small night lamp was left on. He held Charlotte in his arms and closed his eyes.

...

"Mom... What's this?"

Early in the morning, Helena found her mother sitting on the sofa and looking awful. It jolted her, and she was immediately wide awake.

Sitting down beside her, Helena took over a sheet of paper from the small table and asked, "Isn't this Grandma's death certificate?"

Helena set the certificate aside and tugged at Amanda's arm. "Mom, this isn't time to go through these things. Let's get my aunt to help me find a job as soon as possible. Valentina and other girls all laugh at me, and it's driving me insane."
