Charlie was completely at a loss for words at this time. What did Loreen mean? Was she willing to become his mistress and underground lover just because of him? 3
Still, how could he possibly agree to this kind of request? 2
First of all, his feelings for Claire were real, and he was really sincere toward her. Even though Claire had been initially dissatisfied with her grandfather's arrangement, she finally agreed to marry Charlie although her whole family was laughing and ridiculing her for her decision. Of course, Claire had never looked down on him before. 4
Furthermore, when the auntie who had taken care of him in the orphanage fell ill, Claire was the one who lent him the money so that he could pay for her medical expenses. Charlie would never be able to forget Claire’s kindness. 4
So, how could he possibly agree to let Loreen become his lover?
At this time, Claire, who was fast asleep, suddenly moved a little. 1
Charlie was startled and quickly pushed Loreen out of his arms. 2
Loreen glanced at Claire, and when she saw that
Claire was not fully awake yet, she immediately moved her face forward and kissed Charlie gently, her lips touching his lips delicately for a split second, s
Before Charlie could regain his senses, Loreen was already blushing as she slowly swam away from him.
Charlie could not say anything about the sudden kiss because he saw that Claire was about to wake up. 2
At this time, Claire stretched her body a little as she slowly opened her eyes and said, "Oh! It’s so comfortable to soak in the hot spring! I've been feeling so tired lately, but now, I feel as though all of my exhaustion has been relieved at once!" 2
Then, Claire turned around to look at Loreen and was surprised to see that the latter's face was flushed red." Loreen, the spring water is not that hot, so why is your face so red?"
Loreen rubbed her cheeks in embarrassment before she smiled and said, "Yes, the spring water is not hot, but the point is, there is such a beautiful woman lying beside me at this time. How could I possibly not feel hot when I look at you?" 4
As she spoke, Loreen stretched out her hand to poke Claire.
