The Woman Clothes Fell 10

Chapter 10 

After Cordell left, the room became quiet again. 

“Sir, the soup for Ms. Dennis is ready. Should I…” The housekeeper appeared at the door. 

“Bring it over.” 

“Okay.” 

After a while, the housekeeper came in with a bowl of soup. The oats were cooked into a sticky appearance. 

Charlotte was unhappy. She disliked soup the most, not to mention oats soup. 

“I don’t want to have it. I don’t have any strength left in my hands, and I hate oats the most,” Charlotte said while pouting her lips with frowned eyebrows. 

Marcus ignored Charlotte’s refusal. He picked up the porridge, scooped a spoonful, blew on it gently, and brought it to her mouth. “I put sugar in it for you. It’s not good for your stomach if you don’t eat it.” 

Charlotte looked at Marcus in surprise. She wondered if Marcus was coaxing her. 

“I’m not a child. Why would I eat sweet soup?” 

Although she said this, Charlotte obediently opened her mouth. 

If Marcus wanted to feed her, let alone soup, she would be willing to eat anything. 

And the thing was that she liked sweet things. 

After Charlotte finished a mouthful, Marcus brought another mouthful to her. Neither of them spoke anything to break this rare harmonious atmosphere.

The soup was soon finished, and Charlotte’s stomach also warmed up. After all, it had been a day since she had dinner. 

Marcus poured out a pill of medicine left by Cordell, picked up the water, and handed it to Charlotte. 

Charlotte stopped throwing a tantrum and swallowed the medicine with a frown. 

“Eat a piece of candy and sleep.” Marcus took a piece of candy out of nowhere. 

Charlotte looked over and saw that it was her favorite brand. 

She quickly peeled it and stuffed it into her mouth. 

From childhood to adulthood, Charlotte was afraid of taking medicine, and every time she finished the medicine, she had to eat a piece of sugar. 

“Marcus, how did you know that I wanted to eat sugar after taking the medicine?” Charlotte looked at Marcus with a smile. Her eyes were bright, and her teeth were exposed. 

“I took it casually.” Marcus stood up. 

“Marcus, why are you so good to me?” Charlotte asked with a little expectation. 

Marcus looked at the girl with clear and bright eyes, and his tongue paused. “You are my neighbor.” 

“So…” Charlotte couldn’t describe her disappointment. 

But on second thought, she felt relieved because she could use this excuse to get close to Marcus in the future. 

“Marcus, good night.” Charlotte was obedient and sweet. 

“Good night.” Marcus saw the girl’s expression change from surprise to loss to cunning, and his heart suddenly pounded. He

didn’t like this strange feeling and quickly left. 

Everyone close to Marcus knew that he always carries a candy box with him. There were all kinds of flavors of the same brand. The candy would be replaced regularly, but no one had seen him take it out to eat… 

Marcus left Charlotte’s bedroom and quickly returned to his bedroom. 

Marcus lay in bed, but he was unable to fall asleep. 

Today, he felt that he was strange. And he knew that his actions were very inappropriate. But after all, Charlotte was a girl who had been hiding in his heart for so many years. 

This kind of uncontrollable feeling made Marcus, who had always been calm and composed, a little flustered. 

Just as he fell asleep in a daze, his body, which had been specially trained, suddenly became tense out of reflex. 

Someone sneaked into his bedroom. 

Marcus didn’t immediately také action. He was like a leopard waiting for its prey, and he was ready to attack at any time. 

JOuch,” Charlotte accidentally bumped into the corner of the cabinet and couldn’t help but exclaim. 

She quickly covered her mouth for fear she would wake up Marcus, whom she thought was sleeping. 

After realizing that it was Charlotte, Marcus relaxed his body. He wanted to see what this little girl wanted to do. 

Charlotte groped around for a while and finally found the position of the bed. She couldn’t help but mutter, “Why is the room so dark? It hurts.” 

As she spoke, she quietly climbed onto the bed and laid down behind Marcus. 

Marcus said, “Go back.” 

“Oh, my word.” Charlotte, who had a guilty conscience, was shocked and almost jumped out of bed. 

Since Marcus had already woken up, it was useless for Charlotte to play dumb, and she could only pretend to be pitiful. 

“Marcus, I’m afraid of the dark, and I don’t dare sleep alone…” 

“Turn on the light and sleep.” 

“The light is too bright. I can’t sleep.” 

“The night light isn’t too bright.” 

“I can’t get used to the room. I’m scared.” 

The most fearful thing was that the air suddenly became quiet. And just as Charlotte was about to crawl back dejectedly… 

“Lie down and sleep. Marcus broke the silence. 

Was this acquiescence? 

Charlotte was delighted. 

“Yes, Marcus, don’t worry. I promise I won’t do anything to you,” Charlotte raised two fingers and vowed. 

Marcus was lost for words. 

Marcus supported his forehead. What was the girl thinking? Shouldn’t she be worried about what Marcus would do? 

Forget it. Either way, Marcus couldn’t bear to let Charlotte feel even a little grievance. “Try to sleep.” Marcus compromised.

But Charlotte couldn’t be at ease with the handsome man on her side. 

“Marcus, how did you get the wound on your shoulder?” Charlotte stretched out a finger and gently caressed Marcus‘ shoulder. 

Marcus‘ body trembled as he grabbed Charlotte’s restless hand. 

“I was injured by my enemy,” Marcus said indifferently. 

Charlotte’s finger gently scratched Marcus‘ palm. 

Marcus‘ body tightened, and his hand unconsciously clenched while clenching Charlotte’s hand even tighter. 

Charlotte didn’t notice that Marcus‘ body was gradually tense. She moved closer to Marcus and rubbed her face against Marcus‘ back. 

“Marcus, your body smells really good.” 

“You…” The man suppressed his voice. 

He kept swallowing saliva. 

Marcus suddenly let go of Charlotte’s hand and said in a low voice, “Go to sleep, or go back to your bedroom.” 

Marcus quickly walked into the bathroom, turned on the shower, and stood straight in the cold water. 

He opened his eyes and looked at himself in the mirror. 

His eyes were filled with desire, and there seemed to be a monster rampaging through his body and wanting to break through to possess the girl. 

He closed his eyes and clenched his fists while allowing the cold water to wash over his body. 

After watching Marcus leave, Charlotte stuck out her tongue in confusion. She decided to stop seducing Marcus. 

Charlotte waited for an unknown period, but Marcus didn’t return. She drowsily hugged the quilt and fell asleep.
