I Have Never Been Your First Choice novel Chapter 401

Chapter 401.

During their time at Brocade Retreat, even that night when he forced her, they never slept in the same bed.

His eyes were deep. “I heard you talking in your sleep.”

Charlotte shuddered. Did she talk in her sleep?

Did you say anything?

Looking at her confused face, he suddenly laughed, “So nervous, who did you dream about?”

Charlotte avoided his gaze, “No one…”

Jaxson pulled back his smile, fixed his eyes on her, and looked really hard to read.

He stared at her and made her feel numb, Charlotte turned over and lay down, “I’m going to sleep.”

He hugged her from behind, his cheek against her neck, “Yeah, go to sleep.”

Charlotte curled up a little, didn’t move, and closed her eyes.

The next morning.

Charlotte and Jaxson had breakfast in the living room, but they were still a bit bothered by last night’s dream.

She didn’t know what that dream meant. Maybe it was because she’d been around Nigel these days, so she subconsciously projected the boy in her dream onto him…

If that boy hadn’t distracted the thug back then, there’s no way she and Jaxson could’ve gotten out so easily…

It wasn’t until later when the news said there were only two survivors, so that boy back then was also gone.

How could it have been Nigel?

Jaxson had already noticed her expression and put some food in her bowl, “Just a nightmare,

nothing to worry

Just a nightmare…

about.”

Charlotte heard what he said, and she couldn’t help but feel a bit bitter inside.

Yeah, he already forgot.

Cynthia walked over to Jaxson and leaned down to whisper something in his ear. Jaxson put down his knife and fork and slowly wiped his mouth with a napkin, “Did they sign the contract?”

Cynthia said, “It’s already signed.”

“When did you move?”

“They said they could move today.”

After Cynthia left, Jaxson looked up at Charlotte and said, “I bought the Sutton’s residence back for you. When we get back to Boston, you can live wherever

you want.”

Her movements froze, and she gripped the knife and fork tighter.

Lost my appetite instantly.

“I never thought about going back.”

The smile in his eyes faded a bit, “Not planning to go back?”

“Jaxson, the moment I sold the Sutton’s residence, I never planned to go back to Boston, and besides, I didn’t want to go back.” Charlotte stood up.

“Come back.”

Jaxson called out to her from behind.

She paused for a second, didn’t look back.

The man stared at her back and his tone softened a bit, “Eat your breakfast first, don’t go hungry.”

Charlotte took a deep breath, turned to the nurse, and said, “Pack it up for me, I’ll take it to the hospital to eat.

She went back to the bedroom.

Jaxson thought about the sleep talk she said last night.

It seemed like there was a man in that dream who was really important to her, she ran away but still cared about that man’s safety.

His face looked gloomy, and he gripped his utensils tightly.

The caregiver came over with a box, about to pack up the food, when she suddenly noticed his hand holding the knife was bleeding again. She jumped in fright, “Mr. Hamilton, your hand-”

The previous wound hadn’t healed well, and now it was bleeding again.

It was like pain could make him forget the bad stuff.

He stayed calm, “No worries, go ahead and do your thing.”

The caregiver nervously packed up the food and left quickly.

This Mr. Hamilton…

Maybe they had a thing for self–torture?

Charlotte got busy with a few surgeries as soon as she got to the hospital, and she only grabbed a

few bites of breakfast and lunch whenever she had a moment.

She was busy until the afternoon. When she walked out of the operating room, she happened to see Nigel talking to the patient’s family.

Maybe it was because of that weird dream she had yesterday, she couldn’t help but glance at him twice.

After the patient’s family left, he turned to meet her eyes, “What’s wrong?”

She snapped out of it, smiled and changed the subject, “You know the patient’s family?”

He grunted, “They registered me before.”

“No wonder…”

“No wonder what?”

She laughed and said, “I was wondering who was so kind and even made a surgery plan for me.”

Nigel looked at her and was about to say something when a nurse came over. “Mr. Kendall, there’s a lady named Warren who said she wanted to see you.”

Last name was Warren…

Charlotte frowned.

Caroline Warren?

Nigel of course noticed the change in her expression and suddenly asked, “Do I need to see it?”

She was stunned and confused, “Why are you asking me if you’ll see her or not?”

He joked, “Aren’t you pretty close with her?”

Charlotte didn’t answer.

He stopped while he was ahead, “Don’t you want to know why she came to me?”

To be honest, she actually didn’t want to know, but since Nigel put it that way, it really made her

curious.

Nigel agreed to meet Caroline.

Charlotte was there too, just in the office bathroom.

When Caroline found out that Nigel finally agreed to see her, she quickly touched up her makeup in the elevator.

She followed the nurse to the door of Nigel’s office, fixed her appearance, went in, and tried her best to smile perfectly, “Mr. Kendall, nice to meet you, my name is Caroline Warren.”

Nigel looked up at her and told her to sit, acting like a doctor. “What’s wrong?”

Her expression froze for a second, but she kept smiling, “I’m not feeling unwell. I came here just
