Sweet May-December Marriage novel Chapter 92

Chapter 92 The Yenta

The shooting range was quiet again. Charlotte looked at Waylon and asked, "Mr. Colton, why hasn't Mr. Clark come back yet?"

Waylon smiled and said, "He may have something more important. If you're bored, you can also go downstairs to watch others shoot."

Charlotte shook her head and continued to fiddle with the parts sitting on the ground. She said, "No, I'll just wait for Mr. Clark here."

Felicity didn't achieve her goal and naturally didn't leave. She was chatting with Charlotte about the things that happened when she was studying with Nelson before. Charlotte assembled the gun while listening, and she actually finished assembling it successfully. Her eyes lit up and she felt that she was amazing. When Charlotte just wanted to show it to Nelson, her hand was held. Someone touched the gun with his slender fingertips and said, "Here, it's wrong."

Charlotte looked back in surprise and saw Nelson's handsome face. Nelson bent slightly and almost took her into his arms from behind. She could feel the light warmth from his muscles and could also smell the unique fragrance of tobacco and orange blossom shower gel mixed together.

Charlotte's cheeks flushed all of a sudden. She lowered her head and said, "I don't think it's wrong."

Nelson sat next to Charlotte and stripped the gun in less than three seconds that she had finally assembled. Then he picked up a small part and said, "You put it backward."

Charlotte had a moment of enlightenment and said, "That's it. I just felt weird when I assembled it just now."

Looking at the intimate way the two of them got along, Felicity gritted her teeth and said with a smile, "Mr. Clark, you were not here just now. You didn't see Commander Bennett, right?"

"Commander Bennett came?" Nelson raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where's he now?"

Felicity said, "Commander Bennett suddenly had a heart attack, and everyone didn't know what to do. It was Ms. Lopez who stabilized the situation."

Charlotte subconsciously felt that something was wrong. Although Felicity was complimenting her, her intuition told her that Felicity was not so kind.

Sure enough, Felicity continued, "Well, the situation was so messy at the time, and the situation of Commander Bennett looked very dangerous. Ms. Lopez was so generally bold to save him and even won the reward of the Bennett family. But there is no guarantee that nothing will happen every time. If something happened to Commander Bennett, Ms. Lopez would be the target of public criticism, wouldn't she?"

It sounded like Felicity cared about Charlotte, but after careful consideration, it was obvious that Felicity was indirectly accusing Charlotte of being pushy and ignoring everything for the benefit of the Bennett family. Besides, Felicity also meant that Charlotte saved Graham by luck this time, and Charlotte wouldn't have such good luck next time.

Charlotte had been hearing indirect cursing words since she was a child, so she was more sensitive than others about these words. She understood Felicity's meaning in an instant and knew Felicity was implying to Nelson that she would bring him into trouble.

Subconsciously, Charlotte looked at Nelson's expression.

Nelson pinched Charlotte's fair and tender fingertips and put the assembled gun into her hand. After Felicity spoke, he finally looked up at her and asked, "Finished?"

"Finished."

Nelson nodded, turned his head, and said to Waylon, "Since Ms. Bryson has finished speaking, just see her out."

Felicity changed her look and stood up. She said, "Mr. Clark, I know you are spoiling Ms. Lopez now, and you don't like to listen to what I say, but good advice is harsh to the ear. Ms. Lopez is too rash..."

"Do you know what you look like now?" Nelson lazily put his hand around Charlotte's shoulder, like a panther basking in the sun, looking gentle and harmless but actually very ruthless. "Felicity, I remember that Elizabeth often praised you for being elegant and demure. Why are you like a yenta now?"

Nelson's words were with a glimmer of amusement and teasing, making Felicity not know where to put herself.

Felicity had never been humiliated like this, but it was Nelson who said this. She could only grit her teeth and suppress all of her anger. She said with a strained smile, "It's my fault. I have something to do, and I gotta go. Mr. Clark, have a good day."
