Chapter 833 A Rare Moment Of Bliss

Charles slowly pulled his luxury car over by the roadside. He couldn’t help but stare at Whitney

After she had bustled around for the entire day, deep fatigue lined her face.

As Charles recalled her bustling figure in the office, his hand subconsciously stroked her cheek and pinched the soft flesh.

After drifting off, Whitney slept for two hours straight. When she woke up, she was completely disoriented.

She promptly opened her eyes and realized she was still in the car. She quickly glanced to the side, only to be greeted by the sight of Charles resting with his eyes closed.

On instinct, she wiped the corner of her mouth, fearing that she might have done something ungraceful while asleep, such as drooling.

Sensing that the person beside him stirred slightly, Charles immediately opened his eyes. Turning to look at her, he asked in a hoarse voice, “You’re awake?”.

“Um, sorry. How long was I asleep?”

Outside, the sky had turned completely dark, leaving Whitney feeling somewhat lost.

Charles said calmly. “Two hours.”

Huh? Does that mean that he waited for me in the car for a whole two hours?

The light inside the car was dim, but with the illumination of the streetlights, Whitney could see that his cyes werebloodshot.

She even had his jacket draped over her. It was already thoroughly imbued with her scent then.

Having kept him waiting for so long. Whitney felt somewhat embarrassed.

“What were you planning to do with me? Was I keeping you back from something important?”

If she had rld Charles’ affairs up because of her drowsiness, it would be her mistake.

Charley restarted his luxury car without uttering a word, simply returning to the Newton residence.

After taking a shower at night, Whitney was just about to sleep with a blanket in hand when Charles stopped her “Sleep on the bed.”

Whitney was stunned for a second, seemingly not understanding his meaning, staring at him with confusion in her eyes.

Meeting her dazed and adorable gaze, Charles climbed out of bed and snagged the blanket from her
