Chapter 1373
Charlie did not plan ahead or consider the consequences, which was a far cry from his usual approach
to things.
Just after he ended the call with Jonathan, he decided impulsively to just roll with the punches. If Emily
got pregnant that night, well, it was meant to be.
It made sense that he would feel the same way about a child he would have with Emily since he had a
soft spot for Kya.
The thought of possibly becoming a dad before Jonathan was kind of exciting.
A smirk tugged at Charlie's lips, his eyes shining bright amidst the smoky haze - a sign of his inner
satisfaction!
When Emily woke up, the sun was already up, and she could hear Charlie and Kya laughing outside.
She quickly opened her eyes.
Her waist and back were sore, a clear reminder of the previous night's activities.
Emily took a deep breath, annoyed at her impulsive decision.
How could she have given in? She was totally charmed by Charlie!
Hearing footsteps approaching, Emily quickly pulled the covers over herself, pretending to still be
asleep.
She did not think much, it was just an instinctive reaction, possibly because she did not know how to
face Charlie.
The door opened, and Charlie walked over to her, looking down at her with a soft, low voice, "Still
asleep?"
Emily knew she could not pretend anymore. Her eyelashes started to flutter uncontrollably.
She slowly opened her eyes, her brows furrowed, "Why are you still here?"
"Where would I go?"
What Emily meant was that he got what he wanted. Shouldn't he be leaving then?
"Charlie," Emily clutched the covers tightly, looking at him helplessly, "Are we even now?"
"Just one night makes us even? Emily, are you okay with that?"
Emily wanted to say she was but did not dare.
Charlie leaned over, looking at her calmly, "You called me in sucha seductive and sweet way last night,
and now you treat me so coldly.
You sure know how to keep things separate!"novelbin
Emily's face turned beet red.
Charlie sat by the bed, gently caressing her face, "Don't overthink it, just enjoy what we have now,
Emily. You are too anxious. Things arent as complicated as you think"
His voice became somewhat heavy. “Do not exhaust yourself. Say no to things you dislike, and
remember that I have your back. Stop trying to escape me, just unwind and accept it. You enjoyed it, as
you did last night, didn't you?"
Emily's face turned even redder, but there was a touch of confusion in her eyes, "Relying on someone
can become a habit."
"So what?" Charlie smiled, "Have I ever let you down?"
Emily's heart fluttered. It was precisely because Charlie was so good that she felt uneasy.
"Just treat it as a romance, no one knows how a love story will end, right? But it's always exciting and
full of anticipation.” Charlie said softly, then kissed her.
Emily retorted, "Everyone who's been with you knows exactly how it will end."
Charlie stopped and frowned. Then he said "Emily, you really don't know when to hold your tongue!"
"Someone has to stay sober. Emily said with a smile.
Charlie scoffed, "You think you're sober? You're like a cup filled to the brim with water, the slightest
movement and you think you're bathed in holy water, that everyone's drunk and you're the only one
awake."
Emily glared at him and thought, “Bathed? How much water would that take?"
"Do you need my help?” Charlie suddenly smiled suggestively.
"And how can you help?" Emily spoke abruptly.
