Chapter 16
Before Lauren arrived, Charlie went back to his room to change his clothes..
When Daphne came out of kitchen with deserts, she ran across Charlie face to face who was wearing
a pink shirt. Daphne almost accidentally threw the plate when she saw Charlie.
“OMG, the world was so strange!” Daphne thought. Mr. Frank wore a pink shirt! That was so weird.
Although he looked still very handsome in the pink shirt, he was much different from his previous
image.
Daphne quickly put the deserts on the table and soon left in a hurry. She returned to her room to talk
with another maid in the
Bennett family about Charlie’s unusualness.
The another maid said. “He also wore the perfume.”
Daphne was like: (000)
The world was so strange! Mr. Frank seldom did this at home and he never wore the suit of other colors
except dark.
When Lauren arrived at the gate of the Frank family, both Charlie and Leo went out to meet her.
Seeing Lauren, Leo instantly wanted to plunge into her arms, but unfortunately, he couldn’t break free
from his father’s hand so
he could only stand in place.
Lauren knew Leo’s identity, but she didn’t expect that Charlie was also at home today. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
She didn’t know much about the business circle, but she often saw photos of Charlie on newspapers
and magazines. Some female
colleagues in the laboratory sometimes talked about Charlie. Such a busy person would actually stay at
home to accompany his child.
Lauren thought he must be a good man and had a good impression of Charlie.
“Mr. Frank, it’s great to meet you,” Lauren said to Charlie.
Charlie was a little surprised when he heard Lauren say this and kept staring at her.
Lauren frowned, wanting to take a step back. But at this time, Leo had already ran toward her.
Because he was still grabbing his
father’s hand, Charlie, pulled by Leo, also took a few steps forward. Lauren and Charlie were really
close to each other now.
It was so close that Lauren could smell the cologne from Charlie.
Lauren wanted to dodge Leo, but she was afraid that it might hurt him, so she stood still in place.
She thought Charlie would move. She remembered some colleagues in the laboratory mentioned that
Charlie was handsome and
rich but he seldom dated with a woman. Then people started to guess whether he was gay. They
thought the reason why he didn’t get
out of the closet was that he cared about his reputation and the Frank family’s.
They even fantasized about Charlie and some male stars. Lauren didn’t care about other people’s
privacy, but she had a strong
memory and rarely forgot what she had heard.
However, Charlie did not move, and was even closer to Lauren.
It seemed that he couldn’t break free from a four–year–old boy.
Being so close, Lauren could clearly see Charlie’s face. He was really handsome and impressive.
“Miss. Bennett,” Charlie said in a low but sexy voice, “Have we met before? You look very familiar to
me.”
That was too close!
