"That's not happening!"
Nancy shook her head in refusal, "Sleeping with you? What am I, a mistress? No way!"
Regardless of everything else, the thing Nancy found most distasteful was that though she was the bride at the grand and lively wedding years ago, the name on the marriage certificate was Vivian's.
Now, everyone in the world knew that Charlie's wife was Vivian. Even though she and Charlie had gotten a marriage certificate, nobody knew about it.
Under such a baffling circumstance, she certainly wouldn't just sleep with Charlie.
Charlie raised an eyebrow, understanding Nancy's thoughts.
Because of this, he had never forced her.
"Nan, you're not a mistress, and I won't let you be one."
One day, he would announce his relationship with Nancy in a totally assertive manner!
Nancy's gaze darkened, and she pressed down hard on Charlie's most sensitive spot. As expected, Charlie winced in pain, and she chuckled in satisfaction.
Serve you right for liking Vivian!
The next day, Nancy was on time at the set, learning martial arts moves from Matthew. She even asked him to teach her some grappling techniques.
Just thinking of Alexander made her feel sick. If he continued to mistake her for Vivian, he'd definitely pester her when they were alone.
She could use him as practice then!
Soon, the set was bustling again. Nancy turned her head and saw Charlie surrounded by Director Grant and the team.
For some reason, ever since she'd come to terms with her feelings, she couldn't help but smile whenever she saw Charlie.
It was a kind of uncontrollable joy, a smile that she couldn't suppress.
At that moment, Charlie looked over at her. Seeing her smile, he smiled back.
