Zachary was jolted when he heard her words. As his fingers continued to dance on the keyboard, he looked at her passionately. “Worried about me?”
Realizing her Freudian slip, Charlotte blushed and bit her lower lip, not daring to utter another word.
When he saw how embarrassed she was, Zachary couldn’t help but be touched. He used his leg under the table to nudge her. “Come over!”
“Why…”
With her heart racing, Charlotte glanced at him bashfully before averting her gaze.
“Hurry up,” Zachary demanded.
Charlotte dawdled towards him. Despite being just a few steps apart, it felt as if they were a thousand kilometers away. It took her a long time to close the distance.
Ben grew anxious. Are these two actually being lovey-dovey at such a crucial moment?
“Ah…”
Just as Charlotte cried out, Zachary pulled her into his embrace.
