38 Chapter 38: Role play I

"Thump...thump…thump…"

Charlton quickly moved to open the door when he heard the knocks.

"Oh, it's you. What are you doing here? Do you need anything?" he asked.

"Why? Were you expecting someone else?" Leonard asked as he raised his brow.

"No, just a little surprised. It is my first time sleeping here." Charlton defended.

"Spooked?" Leonard teased as he laughed. Then continued with his face serious. "Is there something between you and my sister? I'm not stupid Charlton, I know that I'm not just seeing things."

Charlton didn't know how to respond. Should he admit it or not? After thinking carefully, he decided that he should respect Serena's decision and let her be the one to tell her brother when needed. "Well, I do admit that I admire her. But the only thing between us is nothing." Charlton denied, feeling guilty inside.
