Secretary’s Secret Lover By Zayla Quinn Chapter 58
Chapter 58 Stay Together
Yvette opened her eyes.
She could only see black, white, and gray. It was an unfamiliar room.
She frowned and was just about to get up when she heard the door open.
"You're awake?" Charlie quickly walked over and helped Yvette sit up.
"How would I be here?" Yvette touched her forehead and asked in a hoarse voice.
"You fainted. The doctor said that you were too tired and asked you to go home and rest more. I didn't know where your house was, so I brought you to my house."
Yvette pursed her lips and was still digesting the fact that she had woken up in another man's house.
Charlie said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Yvette. I knew it was inappropriate, so I called Ellen, but she didn't answer."
Charlie was the one who said this, but only Yvette felt embarrassed.
If not for Charlie, no one would care if she slept on the ground.
"It's fine. Thank you, Charlie," she said softly.
Looking at Yvette's face, Charlie was so worried about her. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"Yvette, when I arrived, I saw your husband leave with a woman. He..."
Charlie frowned and asked, "Does he treat you badly?"
Yvette was silent for a moment and did not know how to answer.
"Forget it. These are not important."
Charlie stood up and said, "Do you want to rest for a while, or should I send you back now?"
Yvette said that it was already very late, and it was not appropriate for a man and a woman to stay together in a house.
In front of the car, Charlie helped her open the door like a gentleman.
After getting in the car, he handed Yvette a bottle of water and even helped her open it.
"Thank you." Yvette took it, took a sip, and put it down.
After he drove for a while, there was a traffic jam.
Charlie looked at the map and realized that there was an accident on the expressway.
He drove slowly and told Yvette about the embarrassing things he had encountered when he was studying abroad.
Charlie was funny, diverting Yvette's attention. She listened happily.
Yvette couldn't help but smile when she heard the funny part.
Charlie glanced at her bright smile as if he had returned to school and saw the beautiful girl at a glance.
He looked ahead and raised his eyebrows. "Finally, you don't look like I kidnapped you."
Yvette was a little embarrassed. She looked at her face from the window and asked, "It's not that obvious, right?"
"It's not, but you look very beautiful when you smile," he said.
Then, he added, "Even if you don't smile, you look charming."
"Charlie, a lot of women must be chasing after you, right?" Yvette smiled.
He was handsome, gentle, and humorous.
Charlie said, "Yes, but I haven't been in a relationship since I went to university."
"Why?" Yvette was quite surprised. After all, Charlie was perfect.
Charlie turned the steering wheel and said casually, "The girl I like... She is married."
"Oh." Yvette felt that it was a sad thing, so she didn't ask too much.
"Charlie, you are so outstanding. You will meet someone suitable in the future," she added.
Charlie said gently, "I hope so."
After getting off the expressway, they stopped at a red light.
Charlie picked up the water and opened it to drink.
Yvette looked at it. It was the water she had drunk and subconsciously stopped him. "Charlie, that water..."
However, Charlie had already drunk it.
He looked down at the water bottle in his hand and realized. "Sorry, I didn't notice."
Yvette was a little embarrassed. Fortunately, the green light lit up and the car started again.
After that, he drove unimpededly and the speed of the car increased.
Perhaps it was because Charlie drove too smoothly that Yvette started to feel sleepy.
Ever since she got pregnant, it had been easy for her to get sleepy. After holding on for a while, she finally fell asleep with her eyelids lowered.
After arriving at Spring Bay, the gray Mercedes stopped steadily.
Charlie did not wake her up. He just stopped the car and sat quietly.
He adjusted the air conditioner to a suitable temperature and drew the profile of the girl.
Yvette had actually changed a lot. She was different from when she was at university. At that time, she still had girlish chubbiness and was a pure little girl.
Now, because she was thin, her chin was sharp, making her face look smaller.
She was pure and had a sense of fragility that could bewitch people.
She could easily make a man feel pity for her and have a crush on her.
His eyes darkened for a second. His slender fingers pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and he naturally picked up the bottle of water and drank it.
The water flowed between his lips and tongue.
He suddenly felt that the water today was sweeter than any other day.
Outside the car window, the shadows of trees were mottled.
The girl moved her neck as if she was about to wake up.
Charlie suddenly leaned over to stroke the hair on the girl's cheek. His posture was extremely ambiguous. Through the car window, it was like he was kissing his lover.
Yvette also woke up at this time. The man's dry knuckles touched her hair, and he hadn't taken his hand back.
She was stunned for a second. "Charlie..."
She had just woken up, and there was a little confusion in her cute eyes, which made Charlie's heart skip a beat.
He retracted his hand and smiled gently, "I'm afraid that your hair will be stained with the ointment of your wound."
"Thank you."
Yvette's eyes dimmed, and she thought of some unhappiness.
The wound on her face was caused by Yazmin's handbag.
Charlie opened the car door for her. The wind outside was a little strong. He stood by the car and considerately blocked the wind for her.
Yvette was very grateful that Charlie had helped her so much today. Out of courtesy, she should invite him to go up and have a cup of tea or something.
But it was too late and not appropriate.
"Rest early. I still have to go back and handle some work."
Charlie spoke in time and helped her say it.
"Thank you for today, Charlie."
"You don't have to be polite with me. See you later."
"OK, be careful on your way." Yvette stood there and waved her hand.
At this moment.
A black Bentley that had followed them all the way quietly lurked in the dark night like a wild beast that would attack at any moment.
The low temperature in the car made people freeze.
Frankie was drenched in a cold sweat. He felt that what was beneath his butt was not a seat but a torture tool.
This was the first time he had understood the expression, "on pins and needles".
They followed Charlie's car from his house all the way to Spring Bay, and Charlie was reckless. After parking the car, he even kissed Yvette in the car...
Just now, he was afraid that Lance would smash a big hole in the car with his bare hands.
Seeing that Charlie got into the car and Lance did not do anything, Frankie became more and more uneasy.
Silence meant trouble was brewing.
The man in the back seat suddenly opened his eyes and said in a fierce and cold voice, "Get down."
"Huh?"
Before Frankie could understand what was going on, he had already been pulled down. Lance then sat in the driver's seat.
Through the car window, his face was like a painting and could not be seen clearly, and his eyes were misty.
The next second.
"Bang!"
A loud noise shattered the dark night.
The black Bentley rushed out like a cheetah, running into the gray Mercedes that had just started.
