Chapter 215 - 216: The Marriage Coercer Has Arrived
"Uncle, is there still something on my face?" Charlotte touched her face, looking at James Brown perplexedly.
"No, you’ve wiped it all off," James Brown answered with a smile, secretly relieved that Charlotte hadn’t caught him peeking at her just now. Otherwise, he would have been deeply embarrassed.
Charlotte gave an "Oh" and turned back to the TV, soon bursting into loud laughter again.
This kind of mindset is actually quite understandable. What’s easily obtained no longer excites, while what’s hard to get raises great expectations. With nudity, everything is seen at once, leaving nothing to look forward to, but with movies, the suspense often whets the audience’s appetite, making them anticipate the occasional revealing scene.
Right now, James Brown had just such a mindset. The little glimpse of charm shown by Charlotte was hugely attractive to him, even though he kept reminding himself not to look, he couldn’t help but sneak peeks from time to time.
"Damn it, am I too evil? The girl is hitting on me, and I don’t reciprocate, but now I’m peeking at her," James Brown despised himself internally, feeling that if he continued like this, he’d turn into a beast and assail Charlotte, the young girl.
Suddenly standing up, Charlotte got startled, "Uncle, what’s wrong?"
James Brown replied, "I’m going to wash my face." After saying that, he headed straight to the bathroom.
Charlotte’s eyes caught sight of the bulge at the front of James Brown’s pants, and she secretly started snickering with her lips pursed. This was her new tactic today: not to actively flirt with James Brown, but rather to accidentally expose a bit of charm.
This trick indeed worked and it had stirred James Brown’s desires.
"Stinky uncle, not agreeing to my terms, one day I’ll make you unable to resist and come after me," Charlotte muttered to herself, pumping her little fists confidently, now fully believing she could eventually get James Brown to cave in.
