Chapter 6 Call Me Sir
She had gone the whole day without eating. When she left home in the morning, there was no breakfast prepared for her, and there would naturally be no one to prepare it for her at the Clark family. After all, in the eyes of everyone in the Clark family, she might not live past this night.
Nelson asked casually, "Want something to eat?"
Charlotte looked at him cautiously and nodded gently.
Nelson asked, "You can't speak? Why are you just keep nodding your head?"
Charlotte tightened the blankets in her hand and said after a moment of hesitation, "Mr. Clark, I'm hungry..."
Nelson said, "What did you call me?"
Charlotte widened her eyes.
If not "Mr. Clark", then how should she call him? ...Hubby?
She couldn't be able to call him hubby.
Nelson suddenly pinched her small chin, his thumb slowly stroking her moist red lips, causing the little thing under his palm to tremble lightly.
"If I act faster, my daughter should be about the same age as you," the man suddenly said.
Charlotte was speechless. She thought to herself, "Liar, what man has a child at the age of fourteen?"
Nelson looked at Charlotte for a while with an inexplicable expression before saying, "Call me Sir, and I'll give you something to eat."
"..." Charlotte's stomach growled twice again, and she could only blush and say softly, "...Sir."
The little girl's voice was soft and sweet, just like marshmallow.
Nelson narrowed his eyes, releasing Charlotte, and pressing one of the buttons on the bedside.
In less than a minute, someone knocked on the door but didn't come in, calling out, "Mr. Clark."
Nelson looked at Charlotte and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Charlotte was momentarily stunned.
Besides her grandfather, almost no one ever asked her what she wanted to eat. Since her grandfather had been hospitalized, she hadn't heard that question again.
She never expected that it would be this devil who asked her...
Charlotte pressed her lips, not wanting to trouble anyone at night, "Anything is fine."
"Did you hear that?" Nelson asked.
The person outside the door seemed a little surprised, but still responded with a yes.
Half an hour later, Charlotte was eating a steaming bowl of seafood porridge.
The porridge was cooked thick and the taste of rice and seafood blended perfectly together, exploding with a deliciously sweet and fresh flavor in her mouth.
Nelson watched as Charlotte held the bowl of porridge and ate it like a hamster. He asked, "Is it good?"
Charlotte answered cautiously, "Mmm, it's very good."
"Let me try," Nelson said. Without waiting for Charlotte's response, he had already lowered his head and taken the spoon from her hand.
Charlotte was stunned.
Nelson squinted his eyes and said, "The taste is just normal." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Charlotte held her breath.
In that moment just now, Nelson was too close to her. He was so close that she could count his eyelashes and she could hear him breathing.
There was a hint of a medicinal smell and a subtle woody fragrance on the man, which was light but suffocating.
"Are you full?" Seeing that Charlotte was motionless, Nelson asked again.
Charlotte quickly scooped a spoonful of porridge into her mouth, only belatedly realizing that the spoon had just been used by Nelson.
"..." Uh oh, she felt like her face was on fire.
Nelson seemed tired and didn't mention the physical examination again. He lay down on the bed.
After drinking the porridge and doing a quick wash-up in the bathroom, Charlotte lay down on her small but warm and comfortable pallet. She thought to herself that Mr. Clark wasn't as scary as the rumors made him out to be. After all, he even gave her porridge to eat.
