"Ahhh… finally," Charles purred, slipping his phone deep into his trouser pocket.
It had been two long weeks since Augustine traveled to China to study the language and to also attend a business conference, and seconds gasp, Augustine had just texted Charles to say he was about to board a flight.
A loud sigh escaped Charles's lips, part relief, part anticipation as he turned to glance at Freda, who stood beside him with a radiant smile dancing on her lips.
"Seems we're both in a good mood," Charles whispered, giving Freda's shoulder a playful bump.
She chuckled softly, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear before releasing a deep breath. "Today, I plan on professing my love to Reginald."
"What?" Charles blinked, turning to face her fully. "Don't tell me you haven't said I love you since you two started dating?"
The surprise on Charles face was unmistakable, his brows raised in disbelief.
