Chapter 30: Faces to not mess with
Ambrosia threw him a teasing yet motivating glance. "I’m sure once you work out for a few months, your girlfriend will be very happy," she said teasingly while nudging him to hit the gym more.
Augustus blinked, then looked at her with an embarrassed expression.
"Haha... I don’t have a girlfriend," he gave a nervous laugh, then added,
"To be honest with you, I’m not really good with girls... They’re kind of scary." He scratched his head with a gentle, dazzling smile.
Ambrosia paused briefly, eyeing his handsome yet innocent face. Going unnoticed, she shook her head and giggled softly.
"Don’t worry. With me as your trainer, I’ll make you healthy—and a sweet talker, and in no time you’ll be popular among the girls" she said, voice light, a dreamy smile curling at her lips.
Seeing her in such a good mood, laughing, and relaxed.

"By the way, Ambrosia... do you know any good charity centers?" he asked, trying to sound casual, but the slight pause before his question gave him away.
Ambrosia raised a brow, amused. "Planning to donate... or impress me?"
Augustus blinked. "...Is both an option?" he said, trying to play it cool.
