Charlotte finally woke up in a daze, turning over and burrowing into Zachary’s arms out of habit. Nuzzling the crook of his neck, she reveled in the scent that was solely his, feeling especially warm on the inside.
“Hey.” Zachary had just woken up too. He stroked her hair and kissed the crown of her head. “Hungry?”
“A little bit…” Charlotte retrieved her phone from under her pillow. “Oh God, it’s twelve already!”
“Yeah.” Zachary took her phone away. “It’s time for lunch.”
“I’ll go make us lunch now.” Charlotte scrambled to get out of bed.
“Don’t trouble yourself. I’ll handle it.” Zachary pulled her back. “Let’s hug for a little longer.”
“Is it really okay for you to not go to the company?”
Charlotte felt uneasy. Back when she was at Divine Corporation, he rarely went into work this late unless the time he went for business trips.
“I’m the boss. My word is the law.” Zachary turned on his phone and dialed a number. “Arrange lunch and have it delivered here at one sharp.”
After ending the call, he cuddled with Charlotte again and naughtily bit her ear lobe. “I wanna eat you.”
“Stop messing around…” Charlotte drew back from him, avoiding his lips. “I should get up now. I have something to do later.”
“What thing?” Zachary held her chin, dropping a kiss on her forehead and cheeks.
“I…” Charlotte almost slipped up, stopping herself at the very last second. “I’m meeting a close friend for tea later.”
“Is there anyone else?” Zachary began to nibble on her neck.
“No, it’s just her…” Charlotte started moaning softly. “Stop it. I really need to get up now, and it’s a hassle to wash my hair.”
“Fine.” Zachary reluctantly released her. “Shower here. I’ll help you blow-dry your hair.”
“Okay.” Charlotte went to the master bedroom’s bathroom and was surprised to find that all her toiletries had been prepared. There was even a set of pajamas for her.
“I’ll go to the other bathroom. Wait here for me after you’re done.”
