Each word from him felt like an electric current, spreading from my ears to the core of my heart.


    I let out a long sigh of relief, finally understanding where his mood shift at noon hade from. Frank noticed my sense of relief. "Why are you still sighing?"


    "Why are you asking?" I pinched his waist and huffed, "Your aura suddenly changed at noon, and it startled me."


    Frank was momentarily surprised and asked softly, "Why didn''t you ask me about it then?"


    "I..." I squeezed my palms, slowly piecing together my true self under his affection. No longer worried about appearances or fearing awkwardness, I simply looked up at him and said, "I was scared, Frank. I might not have truly received anything for a long time, so I was a bit insecure."


    As soon as I finished speaking, his hand was on my head, ruffling my hair. The man leaned down, his bright, intense eyes fixed on me, and spoke with helpless affection, Take it slow, Charlotte. I''m only 30. Even if I don''t live to a hundred, I still have another 40 or 50 years."


    "I have plenty of time to make up for the regrets of the past 20 years.".


    "And plenty of time to make you believe that you truly have me."


    "I, Frank, am entirely yours. That includes every single part of my body."


    These were very tender and touching words, buting from him, they took on a


    flirtatious charm.


    He moved closer, his breath enveloping me, and it felt like an enchantment. My cheeks, ears, and neck grew warm under his gaze.


    If we kept looking at each other like this, my heartbeat would surely betray me.


    I shyly pulled away from hisrge hand on my waist and said, "Who wants your body, you pervert!"


    "How is it being a pervert?"

    He kept his eyes on me and forced to back to a wall. He leaned in and used hisrge hands to grab my thighs. The next second, he lifted me up and sat me on top of the shoe cab.


    "Huh? Mmm..."


    Before I could say more, the man forcefully sealed my lips with his.


    Startled, I pushed him away. "What are you doing? Julie is...''


    "Julie has already left."


    His voice sounded gravelly and rough. As soon as he finished speaking, his scorching and passionate kiss descended again.


    The twilight had already settled. Old habits die hard, and Julie had only left a single entrance light on before she left.


    The surroundings were dim and obscure, with the bright light ring on Frank''s head. I trembled instinctively, looking at the man who had always shown me special affection, feeling like something in my heart was being refilled. Filled to the brim.


    At a certain hazy moment, I suddenly understood that everyone in their lifetime would receive one special affection.


    There would always be someone whoes into your life just for you.


    He gently pieced together my broken pieces, allowing me to peacefully reconcile with all the past suffering.


    I almost lost my words. I looked up at his exuberant face, feeling soft inside, holding onto his shoulders, and whispered, "I was thinking, Frank, I think I''m really in love with you."N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    ''Not just affection."


    ''Not just liking.''


    Not due to childhood memories.''


    ''But I, the current me, am truly in love with him.''


    Hearing this, Frank pinched my face and said through gritted teeth, "What do you mean? Are you saying that when you agreed to be my girlfriend, you weren''t in love


    with me yet?"


    "Absolutely not!"


    He pinched my face to the point of distortion, but his strength was controlled, so it didn''t hurt. I didn''t push him away. "I just wasn''t precise with my words. Alright? Frank, I''m saying I love you a little more now."
