Chapter 514

“Why are you lost?”

Zachary was a little upset when he pinched Charlotte's face. He thought that she should've been touched by the gesture and tear up. He was definitely expecting a warm hug and a passionate kiss.

But she's just stunned there.

“It's nothing,” replied Charlotte. She finally came around and grinned bitterly before saying, “I just felt like this happiness came too suddenly...”

“You're not happy with it?” asked Zachary as he stared at her in confusion.

“No, that's not it at all,” answered Charlotte. She reached out to hug him and rested her face against his chest. She enjoyed the rhythm of his powerful heartbeat before she sighed and claimed, “I've been through too much over the past couple of years, and I feel like happiness will always be beyond my reach. I am finally happy, and it feels surreal. It's like I'm dreaming.”

“Silly girl. This is not a dream,” reassured Zachary. He hugged her tightly in his arms.

“I hope not...”

Charlotte buried her face by his neck and greedily inhaled his natural scent. She had been holding especially tight onto him lately because it felt like he would vanish if she let her guard down...

Zachary carried her and placed her onto the bed. He wanted to have her then and there, but he worried that her body couldn't handle the fatigue.

Hence, he quietly held her and stroked her shoulder softly to coax her to bed.

“I'll nap now and wake up earlier tomorrow morning to make everyone some breakfast,” murmured Charlotte wearily. She was like a cuddly kitten at that moment and was curled up obediently in Zachary's arms. Her beautiful face was pressed against his heart, and she listened to his heartbeat as she slept. That made her feel especially warm and safe.

Zachary rested his head on his arm and stared at Charlotte, who was lying sideways by his side.

Back then, he found it annoying that she was noisy and troublesome. Turned out, her being quiet just got him to worry...

It's like she's completely changed after she got back. She's starting to act lost and looks like she's in a daze...

Am I overthinking this? Or is there something off with her body and health?

Zachary was nervous. However, when he saw her sleeping that soundly, he comforted himself. Maybe she's just exhausted. She'll be fine after resting for a few days...
