Chapter 675: Extra Chapter 52: Feeling a Bit Scared Afterwards
Charlotte finished washing up and lay back down on the bed.
Arthur North rubbed her head, helped her turn over, and gently pressed his hand on her lower back.
Charlotte’s face buried in the pillow, she muffledly said after a while, “Brother Arthur…” freewēbnoveℓ.com
Arthur’s mood lifted, and he asked, “What’s up?”
“Shouldn’t we exercise some restraint?”
Arthur chuckled, “Has Sister Brook’s physical fitness declined a bit?”
“Don’t push me to hit you.”
“So we should do it more frequently.” Arthur smiled, spouting his flawed logic, “We’ll get used to it.”
Charlotte lifted her leg and gave him a kick.
Arthur didn’t get angry and leaned down to kiss her on the back of the neck, “Don’t be mad, I’ll be more gentle.”
“You can make it shorter next time.”
Arthur: “………”
“Little girl, you’re making things difficult for me.” Arthur said slowly.
Charlotte didn’t want to deal with him.
After lying down for a while, she reached out to grab the files from the bedside table and lay on the bed reading them.
Arthur said, “The top five are from the Research Institute, and the bottom ones are their submitted papers.”
Over the past few years, Charlotte has mentored several doctoral students, these were their papers.
“I’ve briefly looked through the files; you can take a look at them too.” Arthur said, “I’ve already read the papers and pointed out the areas that need revision.”
From the very beginning of Charlotte’s students’ experiments and papers…
As long as Charlotte had read them, Arthur had too, so he knew them all quite well.
He also knew the demands Charlotte had on her students.
When Charlotte was very busy, these students would directly contact Arthur.
So far, their guidance in teaching students has never had any disagreements.
“Is this…” Charlotte looked at the file, “The project that the M Continent side wants to cooperate with?”
“Yes.”
A few years ago, Edward Kirsten collaborated with the M Continent Laboratory. Arthur solved Peter Qinke, who had harmed Dean Yue, but didn’t do much to the M Continent Laboratory on the surface.
On the surface, it was Gael Easton who used his power to perform a major reshuffle of the entire M Continent Laboratory.
But behind the scenes, it was Arthur’s doing.
The aftermath was huge, and it also established some prestige for Gael in M Continent.
Over the years, occasional exchanges took place between the M Continent side and the Research Institute.
But not as frequent as before.
At the beginning of this year, they suddenly proposed a project, wanting to jointly research with the Research Institute.
They proposed cooperation at the beginning of the year and had a detailed Cooperation Planning Book after half a year.
“What do you think?” Arthur asked.
Charlotte flipped through it again, “This planning book seems to say that cooperation will bring great benefits to us, with no harm whatsoever. But…Isn’t the beneficial and helpful medicine formula they’re offering us one that they had stolen from us before?”
Arthur nodded in agreement.
“Taking our ancestral belongings, shamelessly asking for cooperation, demanding we put in effort and do experiments for them as if we’re the ones benefitting.” Charlotte said indifferently, “They sure know how to do business.”
“What are you going to do?” Arthur asked, “They seem to have encountered significant obstacles in their research, so they reluctantly took out the formula. They know that it…is important for us.”
Arthur paused for a moment and continued, “For decades, they’ve been taking our stuff, researching countless medicines, and selling them back to us at exorbitant prices.”
“So they want to use the formula as a show of sincerity for cooperation, but they shouldn’t even think about it.” Charlotte’s tone was cold, “And since we know the whereabouts of the formula, we should take it back.”
“It’s a bit difficult.” Arthur said, “They claim…that those formulas are theirs.”
Charlotte turned to look at him.
Arthur gently smiled, “But it’s not impossible. We can still get it back openly and honestly.”
One glance, and the two knew what each other was thinking, realizing they had the same idea in mind.
Charlotte Lane raised her eyebrows: “So confident in Gael Easton?”
“After all, my daughter and son call him godfather,” Kevin Clark laughed. “Otherwise, why would he be?”
“This Gael Easton…”Charlotte Lane looked at the other files, “He’s still somewhat useful.”
Kevin Clark smiled.
…
Charlotte Lane started work at two o’clock in the afternoon.
Kevin Clark accompanied her on the film set.
The two of them went out for lunch at noon.
The two little ones, along with Ethan Clark who hadn’t grown up yet, were left with Anisa Cooper.
They went to have some alone time, completely forgetting about the children.
Even when Kevin Clark saw the three kids on the set, he felt somewhat bothered.
The two little ones didn’t care too much about Kevin Clark’s expression, and both wanted him to hold them when they saw him.
Ethan Clark and Noah Clark hadn’t seen Kevin Clark for two or three days and missed him dearly.
Last night when they met, Noah was a bit sleepy, and Ethan was somewhat listless. They both greeted Kevin Clark simply and he let Ethan Clark lead them away.
Today when they saw him, they were especially affectionate.
Kevin Clark picked them up, one on each side.
Little Noah’s hand hugged his neck and kissed his face, “Daddy, I miss you so much.”
Ethan Clark seldom showed too much intimacy with Kevin Clark, at most just allowing him to hold him. He was a bit like Kevin Clark when he was young. However, he would say, “I miss you too. Did you miss us?”
Kevin Clark smiled and said, “Mmm. I did.”
Both little ones were happy.
Ethan Clark glanced at him, thinking: In such a short time, you were only thinking about my mom.
Feeling the gaze, Kevin Clark looked up at Ethan Clark.
Ethan Clark immediately smiled, “Dad, I… don’t really miss you.”
“No need for you to miss me,” Kevin Clark replied.
Ethan Clark smiled and sat down on a chair next to him.
After sitting down, he tilted his head to watch Kevin Clark chat with the two little ones.
While listening, his gaze unintentionally swept across Kevin Clark’s neck.
Suddenly, he saw a red mark under the collar of Kevin Clark’s black shirt.
Ethan Clark’s pupils shrank, and he immediately looked away, his ears turning red.
The red mark, though covered by the collar, could still be seen, showing the edge of a tooth mark.
Kevin Clark’s skin was fair, and it reddened easily when touched, let alone when bitten and broken.
Ethan Clark, with his ears as red as a pair of ears, looked straight ahead.
In all his years, he had never experienced such a thing.
He knew they had a good relationship… but he had never seen such a mark on them before.
He needed time to process it.
His… mom still had to work, and he didn’t know how to restrain himself a bit.
Meanwhile, Charlotte Lane, who was working, naturally saw the bite mark on Kevin Clark’s neck today as well.
But she couldn’t remember when she bit him.
She had no memory of it at all.
Kevin Clark had been too rough last night, and for a long time, she felt as if she was unconscious.
There was a period of time when her memory was blank.
Later, when she thought back, she was a bit scared.
It felt as if she had almost been broken by Kevin Clark’s hand…
