“What are we, anyway? We can’t keep doing this.” Charlotte said hesitantly.
“What do you think we are?”
Charlotte felt a pang in her heart, remembering the intimate scene between him and Natalee, and couldn’t help but feel sour inside!
What could they possibly be?
It was nothing more than a fling!
Did he really intend to take responsibility for her?
“I’m going home. Don’t look for me again.
Gregory looked puzzled. “Give me a reason?”
Charlotte felt a stab of pain in her heart. Thinking that he might be just as passionate with Natalee, she couldn’t control her emotions any longer. “You already have such a beautiful, glamorous secretary by your side. Why do you still come to me?”
Gregory was stunned for a few seconds, then burst out laughing. “Are you jealous?”
“Of course not! Why would I be jealous? You’re overthinking it.” Charlotte huffed, then tried to get up again.
Unfortunately.

Gregory rolled over and trapped her again. “Heh, you already called me ‘husband.‘ What do you think our relationship is?”
Charlotte: “…
“From now on, you can only call me ‘husband.‘ No flirting with other men. If I ever find out, I’ll break your legs.”
Charlotte’s eyes widened
in shock at his words.
What did he mean by that?
Was he declaring his territory?
Seeing her dazed expression, he tapped her nose. “Did you hear me?”
“What do you mean?”
“What do you think?”
“How would I know?”
She really couldn’t figure out what he meant.
“I mean marriage. Do you understand now?”
“What?” Charlotte’s eyes grew even wider as she looked at him in disbelief!
“Are you serious, or are you joking?”
Gregory gave a helpless smile. “What, do you think I’m not good enough for you?”
“Charlotte was even more dumbfounded after hearing that.
Ever since she was little, she had always called him ‘Uncle‘ along with

Timothy.
Besides, there was an eight–year age gap between them.
She had even been engaged to his nephew before.
Now, if she married him instead, wouldn’t people gossip behind her back?
Looking at her exquisitely beautiful face, Gregory couldn’t help but lower his head and kiss her lips again.
Soft and sweet, it was simply irresistible.
Until he started again…
Only then did Charlotte snap out of it, desperately trying to dodge his kiss. “Gregory, are you done yet? Even a donkey in a production team isn’t as tireless as you!”

The last time finally ended.
It was already seven thirty in the morning.
Charlotte was so exhausted that she didn’t even have time to attend her morning class
Anyway, it didn’t really matter. Most of her classmates were out interning or job hunting, and there were hardly any people left at school.
As usual, Gregory got up to get ready for a meeting at the company. “I’m heading to work. You should sleep a bit more!”
Even though Charlotte was exhausted, she couldn’t help but ask, “Gregory, what do you really mean? Do you want to be serious with me,

“Hmph, who has time to play around with you?”

With that, he took a supplementary card from his wallet and stuffed it into her hand. “I don’t know what your parents like, so find some time to buy some gifts. I’ll come to your house to propose another day.”
“Of course, I’ll also have the butler prepare a generous gift.”
Charlotte shivered involuntarily when she heard that.
She looked down at the card in her hand, even more stunned.
Growing up, aside from spending her father’s money, she had never spent a cent from any other man.
She had never lacked money, but now a man had suddenly handed her a

It felt so strange.
“Th–this… can I spend it however I want?”
Hearing this, a helpless yet amused look appeared on Gregory’s incredibly handsome face. “What do you think?”
