Sweet May-December Marriage novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37 A Little Hamster

Rachel hurriedly reassured, "Grandma, don't worry. You're aware of Nelson's health condition, and moreover... Do you think he truly cares about the woman? I guess he's simply intrigued and wants to have some casual fun."

Elizabeth supposed what Rachel said was right. Given Nelson's enigmatic and aloof nature, she wondered how long he could possibly keep Charlotte around. It wouldn't be surprising if one day he got the urge and killed her.

With that thought in mind, she let out a sigh of relief and said, "By the way, remember to invite Becca as well."

Rachel was well aware of Elizabeth's intentions, so she nodded in acknowledgment.

As Charlotte pushed Nelson back into the courtyard, the servants had just finished brewing the medicine. As soon as Charlotte caught a whiff of the scent, she knew that the prescription had been changed. Her eyes instantly lit up, glowing like the radiance of a thousand stars captured within her gaze. "Mr. Clark... Did you change the medicine?"

Nelson rubbed his temple with his ring finger as he lazily said, "Yes, the doctor said your prescription is quite good."

Not only was the prescription good, but that old doctor was also genuinely amazed by it. He kept asking Waylon who came up with such a marvelous prescription and insisted on meeting the person.

Clearly, Waylon couldn't bring an old man to meet Charlotte. That would be deliberately provoking Nelson.

Charlotte smiled faintly and whispered, "As long as it's effective, that's all that matters."

Nelson glanced at the cake on the small table and said, "Open it."

Charlotte thought he was hungry, so she nodded and proceeded to unwrap the packaging of two small cakes, revealing a chocolate soufflé and a strawberry cream cake.

The portions were small but intricately made. They were all bestsellers from the pastry shop.

Charlotte carefully arranged the forks. She could not wait to see how graceful Nelson was when he enjoyed the cakes.

To her surprise, Nelson said, "Go ahead and eat."

Charlotte was at a loss for words.

Her eyes widened with confusion as she looked at Nelson, and her mind filled with question marks. It was then that she remembered Nelson's identity.
