Chapter 828 Beyond Resenting.

Whitney’s heart raced as she was lost in the depths of his profound blue eyes.

“Did that person hurt you just now?”

Upon hearing his concern, a warm sensation surged through her heart. She shook her head.

“No.”

As the music reached its climax, their dance steps quickened. The two of them began to dance in the center of the dance floor, and the people around them tactfully made room.

When the music stopped, everyone ceased dancing.

Whitney was in Charles’ arms, feeling his heartbeat.

The strong and powerful sound provided her a sense of comfort.

After the dance, the pain in her ankle intensified. Whitney said aloud, “Mr. Newton, I need to use the restroom.”

While they were dancing earlier, Whitney was holding it in. She needed to go to the restroom to put a damp paper towel on it, lest she embarrass herself later.

Charles felt somewhat annoyed with the manner of address. He didn’t know why, but he didn’t want her to call him that. It seemed to subconsciously increase the distance between. them.

Whitney chuckled lightly, nodding her head as she replied, “I understand, Charles.”

Charles let go of her hand, and only then did she go to the restroom.

To avoid dirtying her gown, Whitney carefully lifted her skirt as she slowly made her way to

the restroom.

High heels might make one look beautiful, but there was an immense price to pay.

When she took off her shoes, she noticed that blisters had formed on her ankles.

With a gentle touch, a piercing pain was felt immediately.

Gasp!
