I Have Never Been Your First Choice novel Chapter 406

Chapter 406.

Charlotte froze and looked at him in surprise, “I don’t have your toiletries here.”

“I used yours.”

When he said this like no one else was around, she choked up and looked embarrassed.

Nigel noticed the look on her face and said calmly, “I have plenty of rooms, and there are some unused toiletries. If Mr. Hamilton doesn’t mind, I can free up a guest room for Mr. Hamilton.”

He frowned, gave a little laugh, “Is it okay if I stay at your place?”

“She just got out of the hospital, is it convenient for you to stay at her place?”

Jaxson stopped smiling, “I’m her husband.”

Nigel nodded, “So what? You didn’t do what you should as her husband, and you forced what you shouldn’t just because she was your wife. But did you ever think about how she felt? Did you ever ask her if she needed you to stay and take care of her?”

Jaxson pressed his thin lips together and looked at Charlotte.

He really just brought her back and didn’t plan to stay.

If he stayed, he’d rather she asked him to.

It was just that Nigel’s sudden appearance annoyed him.

And what he said…

Just like a thorn, it stuck in his heart.

He seemed like he never asked her what she thought.

Charlotte met his eyes, understood something, looked away, “I could take care of myself.”

She didn’t need him.

Jaxson suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and slowly loosened his clenched hand. “I’ll come see you again tomorrow.”

Charlotte paused.

This was still the first time Jaxson didn’t keep pushing.

He turned around, Nigel was leaning by the door, “Mr. Hamilton wasn’t thinking about staying at my place anymore?”

He straightened his clothes, with a meaningful look, “We’ll talk about it tomorrow.”

Jaxson stepped into the elevator until he disappeared from her sight.

Nigel looked at her face and said, “If you didn’t want to let go, why didn’t you ask me to stay?”

Charlotte came back to herself, opened her mouth, and said, “I’m not reluctant.”

“Alright, I’m heading back first.” Nigel walked a few steps, then suddenly stopped and turned to look at her. “Your hand isn’t convenient. If you need any help, just call me.”

Charlotte froze, but he had already closed the door.

The next day, Charlotte sat in the living room changing her bandages and wrapping gauze by herself.

Suddenly, when she heard the doorbell, she also thought her takeout had arrived.

Opened the door, it was the property manager.

“Mrs. Hamilton, this is the community property management.”

The other person was respectful, and when they called out “Mrs. Hamilton,” Charlotte frowned.

“Here’s the thing, Verde Apartments got bought by the Hamilton Group today. I heard that one of the owners in this building is Mr. Hamilton’s wife. I really didn’t expect it to be you.” The property manager looked regretful, wishing they had recognized you earlier. “If I had known it was you, when you bought this place before, I definitely would’ve asked the developer to save the best floor for you!”

Charlotte rubbed her forehead and didn’t pay attention to what he said after that. “You mean, the Hamilton Group bought Verde Apartments?”

“Yeah, oh right, the mortgage on this place, Mr. Hamilton paid it off for you too, the property manager said with a smile. “You’re Mrs. Hamilton. If you ever need anything from us, just let us know. Don’t worry about any property fees or anything!”

Even though the property staff were friendly, Charlotte knew it was just because of her “status.”

Charlotte didn’t say anything. After the property manager left, Nigel opened the door with a toothbrush in his mouth, leaned against the doorframe, and still had a towel hanging around his neck and shoulders, like he just woke up.

Obviously, he heard everything just now.

“People named Hamilton really were rich and generous. Such a small piece of real estate was actually worth his effort.”

Charlotte lowered her eyes and didn’t say a word.

She suddenly remembered the day Caroline just got back to America, when there was a two–hour drone fireworks show over Boston, and it made the trending topic.

Everyone on the trending topic was commenting on how romantic he was.

It was from that day that she found out his crush had gone back to their country.

And what was she thinking back then?

How jealous she was.

Because his romance had never been for her…

Sadness spread in Charlotte’s eyes. Nigel noticed it, frowned, and was about to say something. Jaxson walked out of the elevator with Cynthia.

Cynthia looked at Nigel standing across from Charlotte’s door, and her tense face relaxed.

We didn’t actually live together.

No wonder Mr. Hamilton didn’t go crazy…

Mary

“Has the Hamilton family always liked to throw money around like this?” Nigel drank some water and rinsed his mouth.

Jaxson looked at him, “Mr. Kendall liked to rinse his mouth in front of other people’s doors?”

He answered calmly, “The property management knocked on my door and disturbed me, so I had to come out and see what’s going on.”

“Had enough of the excitement?”

“That’s enough.” Nigel sighed, “A house I just bought on a whim suddenly turned into the Hamilton Group’s. It’s pretty hard to get used to.”

Jaxson smiled, “Mr. Kendall would get used to it over time.”

Nigel wanted to say something else, but Cynthia walked up to him, smiled, and reminded him, “Mr. Kendall, you probably shouldn’t bother the couple anymore, right?”

Nigel didn’t say anything, just looked at Jaxson without showing any emotion.

And Jaxson also looked at him.

Our eyes met, it looked calm but there was a storm underneath.

At the end, Nigel shrugged and stepped back behind the door.

Jaxson looked away and stopped in front of Charlotte, “Had breakfast?”

She was just about to answer when the delivery guy walked out of the elevator. He was just about to call, but then he looked up and saw Charlotte’s door number. “Hi, is this your food delivery?”

Jaxson frowned.

Charlotte reached out and took it. “Thanks.”

The delivery guy walked up to the elevator, didn’t forget to look back, thinking, could this be some kind of film crew recruitment?

Are both the guys and girls all this good–looking?
