99 Bloody Lashes And A Bullet To His Hear novel Chapter 78

Charlie followed her, but his gaze didn’t leave her. When she felt slightly uncomfortable under his intense stare, he finally looked away and spoke, “Our wedding is in three days.”

Olivia was taken aback by his sudden mention of the wedding, thinking he was going to talk about keeping their distance. But the next moment, she realized she was mistaken.

“Are you still going to call me Mr. Williams?” His voice carried a slight amusement, but underneath, there was a hint of grievance.

Olivia was too flustered to pay attention to his emotions. The word “Olivia” that he used was what caught her mind. It wasn’t that no one had called her that before–her friend Jennifer, her father, and even Joe had called her that. But when it came from Charlie, it felt entirely different.”

She tried to stay calm, but the blush spreading to her face betrayed her embarrassment. He saw it all but didn’t step back. Instead, he took a step closer. “Olivia doesn’t even have me saved as anything but Mr. Williams, does she?”

“No… no…” This time, Olivia clearly heard the accusation in his voice. Flustered, she waved her hands and, as she thought about the note on her phone, the blush spread from her ears to her cheeks.

If before, Charlie’s question seemed casual, now, seeing her reaction, his curiosity about her phone’s note grew.

As she spoke, she directly took out her phone and dialed her number. The ringtone sounded abruptly, and she hurriedly took out her phone to hang up the call. However, he was quick enough to stand beside her, catching a glimpse of the note on her screen.

“Future husband.”

When he saw those four words, a sense of satisfaction filled Charlie’s heart. He smiled, stopping her from hanging up the call, and brought his phone next to hers. His screen displayed two words as well. “Wife.”

She recoiled from the phone like she had been shocked by electricity, her ears reddening even more. She weakly muttered, “Childish.”

“Yes, I’m childish,” Charlie didn’t mind, withdrawing his hand as he watched her quickly hang up the phone and put it away. He chuckled lightly, “If Olivia could remove the word ‘future‘ from that, I might be even more childish.”

Olivia didn’t respond. She glanced around, trying to change the topic, but suddenly a figure appeared in her sight. He was panting, seemingly having run over. The joy in his eyes disappeared instantly when he saw the man beside her. She was stunned for a moment but quickly regained composure. As she averted her gaze, all traces of emotion disappeared.
