Chapter 595
Chapter 595
The flirty words Spencer suddenly blurted out startled Charlize. She shot a glance at Juliette and the others. Even though the three were seven to eight meters away and certainly couldn’t hear what Spencer had said, Charlize still felt embarrassed.
She used to think Spencer was cold as ice and treated everyone coolly. However, after she spent time around him as his secretary, her opinion of him changed a little, but she still thought he was indifferent.
Then after being his girlfriend, she realized he was really skilled at flirting. Yet, he kept his mask of nonchalance every time he spouted flirty words, leaving her flustered as to whether she should feel shy or angry at his comments.
Plenty of people were milling about outside the airport. Spencer’s flirty comments caused Charlize to blush. Her heart pounded the entire way.
They arrived at the parking lot. Molly called out to Charlize, but the latter was in a daze and couldn’t hear her.
It wasn’t that Juliette and the rest couldn’t read the room. From the airport to the parking lot took three minutes, and the trio had regained their composure within that time.
It was good news that Charlize could take down the man out of everyone’s league.
The trio had secretly used their phones to look at Charlize and Spencer who were walking behind them. Although the two did not behave intimately, they saw Spencer quickly tug Charlize to his side when she nearly ran into someone.
That wasn’t the main point. The point was despite his reputation for being cold and indifferent, his sharp gaze would soften whenever Charlize was in his sight. He would be so focused on her that no one could get his attention.
The ladies had driven there in two cars. Since Charlize and Spencer would ride in the same car, one among the three of them would have to be the driver.
They had chosen the driver via rock-paper-scissors when they came. However, Shanny, who lost the game, refused to be the third wheel to the couple. “Please don’t make me do it. I feel this strong urge for us to disappear coming from Spencer.”
Juliette and Molly felt the same.
Charlize and Spencer had come a long way to attend Juliette’s wedding. Being a driver wasn’t an issue for them as their relationship was close.
The problem was Spencer. He was their senior and Charlize’s boyfriend.
As the bride, Juliette couldn’t have Spencer and Charlize follow them in another car.
She sighed, took the car keys, and strode to the other car. “Spencer, put your luggage in the trunk.”
Spencer muttered an acknowledgment, placed his luggage in the trunk, and offered, “I’ll drive.”
Juliette was overjoyed, but she had a look of shock on her face. “That won’t do, Spencer. You and Charlize must be tired from the long flight. How can I let you drive?”
“She gets carsick. It’s better that I drive.”
Juliette didn’t expect her driving skills to be questioned and Spencer’s show of affection. “Okay. I’ll send the location to Charlize.”
“Okay.”
Charlize felt so shy she couldn’t get a word out. Juliette shot her a knowing look before she left. “I haven’t seen you in a while, and things have changed drastically, huh, Charlize?”
Charlize caught the innuendo and her cheeks turned even redder.
Yes, I get carsick, but I’ve already slapped on a motion-sickness patch and will be fine if I shut my eyes and take a nap. Why did he say something like that? Where should I hide myself now?
After Juliette walked away, Charlize glared at Spencer. “Stop saying things like that!”
“Things like what?” Spencer opened the passenger seat door and gestured for her to get in. “Bent down and be careful. Don’t knock your head.”
He lifted his hand, placing it above her head.
Charlize wanted to continue the topic upon getting into the car, but she didn’t know how.
Things like what? How can he say that in such a serious tone?
Spencer didn’t start the car immediately after putting on his seatbelt. “What have I been saying?”
He’s too much! I’ve already put a stop to the topic. Why is he still asking?
She turned her head to the side and stared out the window. “It’s nothing.”
“Are you mad?”
He reached for her hand, set it in his palm, and gently massaged it.
“No.”
Charlize wasn’t that petty of a person. She just felt shy upon remembering his words.
“Charlize,” Spencer called out softly.
Charlize turned to look at him. “What? I’m not mad at you.”
“Don’t you like hearing me say those things?”
His question set her face ablaze again. Even though they were really flirty, no woman could deny they loved it.
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” She lowered her head and looked at her hand in his palm. “I like it when it’s just the two of us.”
Spencer’s eyes darkened when he took in her pink cheeks. “I’ll say them when we’re alone, then.”
Charlize didn’t know if she should respond.
When she was in a dilemma, her phone rang.
It was Molly texting her, wondering if something happened to them since she didn’t see them.
Charlize showed the message to Spencer. “Let’s head over to the hotel first.”
“Okay.”
Spencer squeezed her palm again before releasing it reluctantly and starting the car.
One must admit Spencer looked unapproachable when he was serious.
She noticed the apathy in his eyes when he focused on driving and stared dead ahead.
As she stared at him, she felt that her boyfriend’s character was drastically different when they were in others’ presence and alone.
However, she liked the difference.
Oh, Charlize, you double-faced woman!
The car pulled into the highway, and Spencer glanced at Charlize. “Do you feel dizzy?”
Charlize shook her head and pointed behind her ear. “I already put on a motion sickness patch.”
Spencer grunted an acknowledgment and said, “Take a nap.”
In fact, Charlize was starting to feel sleepy since she couldn’t sleep the night before after realizing she had gained five pounds. She had even attended a conference in the morning.
Despite having slept for a while on the plane, she felt a little giddy.
Charlize looked at Spencer. “I’ll take a nap, then.”
“Okay.”This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
