Chapter 268 Out of Place 

1/4 

Charlotte’s breath hitched, and her grip on her fork tightened slightly. Struggling to suppress her emotions, she asked, “What exactly are you trying to do?” 

Arthur’s gaze settled on her ear, where the soft, fair skin of her earlobe had turned an unmistakable shade of pink from his warm breath. His eyes darkened, and without hesitation, he leaned in and kissed it lightly. 

Then he said nonchalantly, “What else? I’m here to eat.” 

Charlotte’s entire body stiffened. It took every ounce of self–control not to jab her fork into his face. Gritting her teeth, she asked, “What are you eating?” 

She had given in. 

Arthur smiled with satisfaction. He beckoned the server, glanced at the menu, and swiftly ordered a few dishes. 

Pete’s smile faded even further. 

But Arthur was Charlotte’s husband. Pete had no grounds to ask him to leave. 

Besides, Arthur’s domineering aura made it clear that once he decided something, it was unchangeable. 

Pete sighed internally. “That’s too bad. No wonder she always looks troubled. Her life must be so unhappy.”

The atmosphere at the table grew increasingly awkward, but Arthur seemed oblivious. He casually asked, “What were you two talking about earlier?”

Pele replied, “We were talking about how lucky she must be to be your wife, having everything she could ever want.” 

Charlotte glanced at Pete, puzzled by his intent. 

Arthur nodded without hesitation. “You’re absolutely right.” 

But Pete continued, “If I ever get married, I’d make sure my wife never feels wrong. If she so much as frowned, I’d immediately reflect on what I did wrong and try to fix it.” 

Arthur looked at him approvingly. “Your future wife will be very fortunate.” 

Pete was speechless. 

“Does he really not get what I’m implying?” he thought. 

The tension hung thick in the air until the server arrived with their food, breaking the silence. 

Arthur picked up his fork and began serving food onto Charlotte’s plate. His actions were abrupt but carried a natural ease as if he’d done this countless times before. 

“Eat more. You haven’t been resting well, have you?” 

Charlotte froze, alarm flashing in her eyes. 

She thought, “What’s gotten into him? Has he lost his mind? Or

In their five years of marriage, Arthur had never done anything like this. 

“Eat,” Arthur prompted, noticing her hesitation. His thin lips. curved faintly. “Don’t like this dish?” 

Without waiting for a response, he added a portion of another dish to her plate. “Then try this.” 

Charlotte gripped her fork tightly, unsure of his game, but she was indeed hungry. Lowering her head, she began eating. 

Arthur’s smile deepened as he watched her. 

Pete remained silent, observing the scene. 

At first, Arthur seemed unsure of her preferences, randomly selecting dishes for her. But as the meal went on, he started serving only the ones she liked, as if he had suddenly learned. 

her tastes. 

What had begun as a meal for just the two of them now felt utterly disrupted by Arthur’s presence. Pete, ‘once an equal participant, now seemed entirely out of place. 

Charlotte soon set her fork down, wiped the corner of her mouth, and said calmly, “I’m done. I need to get back to the hospital to accompany my grandmother.”
