Chapter 33: Unexpected Visitor
Furrowing her brows in surprise, she opened the piece of paper on which it was written, "LOOK BACK." Without hesitating, she slowly looked back, and immediately her jaw dropped in surprise.
"Oh my goodness, Charles is here," she said to Lucy, forgetting that Lucy didn't know who Charles was.
"Who is Charles?" Lucy asked her with a furrowed eyebrow, and at the same time, Charles approached them while grinning ear to ear.
Once Lucy saw him, she gasped in surprise because to how handsome he was; she didn't need a fortune-teller before knowing it was Charles she was talking about.
"Good evening, handsome," Lucy greeted him before standing up.
"Sarah, I'm already full. I will go and dance a little bit before we start going back home," Lucy said to Sarah, and before she could utter a word, Lucy had already left. With that, Charles sat down on the chair next to Sarah.
"Good evening," Charles said, greeting Sarah, who was avoiding his gaze.
"Good evening, Charles. How are you?" Sarah asked him while avoiding his gaze.
"I'm fine. What about you?" Charles asked her.
"I'm good too," Sarah said to him.
"Really? If not, you don't look fine; it's as if you aren't happy to see me," Charles said to her.
"No, of course; it's just that I was surprised to see you here; I never knew you came to places like this," Sarah said to him.
"Normally, I'm the one who is supposed to be surprised here, not you; just by looking at me, you could already tell that I frequent places like this, but you, I don't think so; no one would ever imagine that you come to places like this," Charles said to her.
"Actually, you are right; I don't usually come to places like this; if not for my friend over there, you wouldn't have seen me here," Sarah said to him before turning around to look at Lucy, who was already dancing floor dancing with a stranger.
"She's really a self-free person," Charles said to Sarah, who was still looking at Lucy in surprise.
"You can say that again, unlike me, who does nothing else but work," Sarah said to Charles.
"Thank goodness you made time for yourself today. By the way, about what happened last night, I hope you didn't have traumas about it." Charles asked Sarah.
"Of course, I have been through tougher problems, so issues like this one can't traumatize me," Sarah said to Charles in reply.
"I'm happy to hear that, and I must admit that you are a very strong lady, and every man would do anything to have a lady like you in their life," Charles said to Sarah with a warm smile.
"Stop flattering me; if what you said is really true, then I wouldn't be divorced," Sarah said to him.
"Not everyone knows the value of the gold they have until they lose it. A blind man threw away the gold he had because he couldn't see the value. Some years later, I discovered the gold that the blind man threw away, but the only problem is that acquiring the gold now is very difficult because the value of the gold is already visible to everyone, including the blind man. But believe me, I'm not going to rest until I finally acquire the gold," Charles said to Sarah.
"Do you mind telling me where the gold is? I would also love to acquire it," Sarah said to Charles.
"Well, the gold is right in front of me," Charles said to Sarah, and immediately she looked back before returning her gaze towards Charles, confusion evident on her face.
" Where?" Sarah asked Charles with a confused tone.
"You are the gold I'm talking about; to me, you are a very rare and expensive gold, and just as I said earlier, I'm not going to rest until you finally give me a chance," Charles said to Sarah, and without realizing it, she started blushing.
"I must admit that you really know how to make a lady smile," Sarah said to Charles while smiling.
"You are right, but you are the only lady I know how to make laugh and also blush," Charles said to Sarah, and immediately she widened her eyes in surprise before looking at her face through the screen of her phone. Once she noticed that she was blushing, she immediately covered her cheeks with her hands.
"I wasn't blushing, right?" Sarah asked Charles while covering her cheeks with her palms.
"Of course you were, and I bet that it's been years since someone made you blush," Charles said to her confidently.
"How sure are you about what you are saying?" Sarah asked him with a furrowed.
"I don't know, but I know that I'm telling the truth," Charles said to her confidently.
"Whatever, with the way you are talking, one would think you are a fortune-teller," Sarah said to Charles.
"How I wish I was one; at least I could have been able to read what is in your heart. By the way, I feel like shaking my body; do you mind dancing with me?" Charles asked Sarah, and immediately she shook her head negatively.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know how to dance," Sarah said to Charles, and immediately he furrowed his brows at her.
"And you expect me to believe that?" Charles asked her with furrowed brows.
"That's the truth; I don't know how to dance," Sarah said to him.
"Well, you can't conclude that you don't know how to dance from here; let's get to the dancing floor first. If you really don't know how to dance, I will let you go," Charles said to her before standing up and stretching out his hand to her. With that, Sarah sighed heavily before grabbing his hand and standing up.
"A minute, I have to go and foot our bills first," Sarah said to him after standing up.
"Don't worry about that; I have already taken care of it," Charles said to Sarah, and immediately she widened her eyes in surprise.
"You are welcome," Charles said to Sarah once he noticed that she wanted to protest, and immediately she heaved a sigh.
"Let's get going already," Charles said to her before dragging her to the dance floor.
"Once they got to the dancing floor, Charles winked at the DJ, and immediately he changed the music to another booming song.
In the beginning, Sarah was dancing slowly, pretending not to know how to dance, but with time, the music got into her head, and to Charles' greatest surprise, she started dancing widely. Without hesitating, Charles took the opportunity and started rocking her from behind and touching her sensually.
Meanwhile, someone stood at the other end of the dance floor, videoing Charles and Sarah dancing together in a wild manner.
