Chapter 143: So, Who Won? Chapter 143: So, Who Won? The billiard room where Charlie decided to play was neither near nor far from the film set. It required a few minutes by car, or over ten minutes on foot.

Nancy was familiar with the location, and her anxiety to see Charlie made her sprint down the narrow path without hesitation.

Her slender figure moved swiftly, much faster than girls her age. The urgency in her heart propelled her forward, and remarkably, she covered the distance in just under ten minutes.

As soon as she spotted the billiard room, she rushed inside.

"Charlie..." She called out as she ran, but her breathless panting stopped her from calling out his nagain.

She finally found the room Charlie had given her the address for. Placing her hands on the door, she pushed it open forcefully, " Charlie..." The room swung open before her eyes, revealing an empty space, save for the pool table and a single person Charlie was leaning against the pool table. Hearing her voice, he gently lifted his eyelids, a warmth in his eyes instantly landing on Nancy's face. Seeing her wide-eyed and panting heavily, he chuckled lowly and straightened his body.

"Did you run all the way here?" He asked as he walked toward Nancy. His long legs closed the distance in a few strides, and his distinctly masculine scent immediately enveloped Nancy.

"I... I..." Nancy glanced behind him, wanting to ask about Samuel, but her words were stuck in her throat, hindered by her heavy breathing.

A slender finger circled her arm, gently patting her back, "Where's Luna? Why didn't she drive you here?" His touch seemed to soothe her, and her breath began to steady. Without waiting, she asked, "Where's Samuel? Haven't you guys played yet?" "We did." Charlie's tone was casual as if he was talking about the weather. There was no emotion to be detected. He furrowed his eyebrows slightly, casting a somewhat reproachful look at Nancy.

"I'm not going anywhere, and I would wait for you here. What's the rush? Even if Luna didn't bring you, you' could have taken a taxi, or just walked over slowly." "Oh!" Nancy was on pins and needles. She grabbed the hand he was using to pat her back and asked anxiously, "You played? So, what was the result? Who won?" "Heh..." Charlie chuckled lowly. His index finger curled and gently tapped her forehead, "You're just interested in the result!" "What else should I be concerned about?" Nancy pouted, "After all, you were standing up for me. Even if you lost, and the one who would apologize online wasn't me, but deep down, I was hoping you would win In her heart, she always hoped Charlie would win! "Alright."

Charlie switched his hand to her shoulder, leading her outside, What do you feel like eating tonight?" His change of subject nearly drove Nancy mad, "Just tell me, who won?" "Uh..."

Charlie pursed his lips as if he was seriously considering her question, "You like seafood, so let's have seafood then?" "Charlie!" Nancy stomped her foot in

frustration. Seeing the faint curve at the corner of Charlie's mouth, she finally realized he was teasing her. From the moment she arrived, he had been playing with her. "Ah..." She pulled his arm off her shoulder, and began to sway like a spoiled child, "Just tell me, who won~" RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
