She withdrew her tiny hand with a hint of discontent., but failed. So she had to stop moving, allowing him to hold her hand.
"It sounds as if we're having an affair. It’s really awkward."
As soon as she finished that, she pouted, hummed in frustration, "But our relationship is really like an affair right now. Apart from us not having any feelings for each other, nor shared pursuits, it's exactly the same."
Charlie was displeased, and he suddenly added force to his fingers!
Nancy's mouth corners cracked in pain. Again she tried to pull her hand out, "What are you doing? It hurts! Let go of me..."
Charlie tilted his head. His deep eyes warned her, "I'll give you another chance. Put it right!"
Nancy couldn’t pull her hand out, so she had to endure the pain. She recalled her words and suddenly understood it, "There is shared pursuits between us. Like just now, when you, Mr. Firth, saved me, as a return, I should give you a free massage tonight..."
Before she could finish, her hand ached even more. She shouted in frustration, "Where did I go wrong? Tell me!"
The driver, Tom, sitting in the front was about to explode with worry!
Jesus, how could you say that there are no feelings between you and Young Master Firth?
Young Master Firth's feelings for you are like a tornado, strong and intense!
Seeing that she was about to cry in pain, Charlie reluctantly let go of her hand and shook his head in disappointment, "You’re truly ungrateful!"
Once her hands were free, Nancy immediately held them to blow on.
She cautiously glanced at Charlie. His face looked extremely unhappy. She could barely understand what he was thinking!
Just yesterday, she thought he had a good temper, but today she found him capricious!
As soon as they arrived home, Charlie headed to the kitchen, "Maid Heather, boil an egg!"
