A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 689

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 689

Finnick frowned when he saw that Charlotte’s hand was about to touch his. He put one bucket on the floor before walking around Charlotte and continued forging ahead.

Charlotte was instantly dumbstruck. She didn’t expect Finnick to do that. In fact, she thought that he would act like a gentleman and insist on carrying the bucket so that Charlotte wouldn’t be worn out. I can’t believe he’s actually making me carry a bucket that heavy.

Charlotte gritted her teeth as she watched Finnick walking further away. She spent all her effort picking up the bucket before she stumbled behind him.

“Mr. Norton, p-please slow down. I… whew, I can’t keep up,” said Charlotte soon after. She was so tired that she was panting at that moment.

Finnick hesitated when he heard the pants behind him. He ultimately slowed down. She may be annoying, but she’s still just a young lady, after all.

Charlotte could help feeling delighted when she saw Finnick slowing down for her. I knew it! He does care about me.

Charlotte suddenly felt energy surging through her veins. She picked up the bucket and rushed to Finnick’s side before she put on a shy expression and said, “Thank you, Mr. Norton.”

Finnick’s eyes glowed with distaste when he heard the woman making that superficial noise. He didn’t look at her or respond to her words. Instead, he kept moving forward.

At this rate, we would reach the camp soon. That thought got Charlotte nervous.

No, I fought so hard to get some alone time with him. I will not go back just like that!

Her mind spun, and she tripped herself.
