Chapter 541: What Was The Point Of Being Young

Charles’s POV

Once the party was about to end, Caroline yawned. I raised my wrist to check the time. Then, I sprang
to my feet and strode towards Caroline. As I carried her, I said, “It’s getting late. I’m taking Caroline
home.”

Half asleep. Caroline tilted her head towards the car window,

I adjusted her position, so that she could lean on my shoulder while I continued driving.

Caroline frowned, rubbing her head against my shoulder. It took some time, but she was able to find a
comfortable sleeping position and drifted into sleep.

I stopped the car at the red light. Her face looked so innocent while she slept. Her eyelashes were
curly, and her skin was really smooth. Seeing her like this made me realize that she was actually more
beautiful than I believed she was

I felt like my cold, icy heart was melting away because of her tenderness.

I was filled with the desire to kiss her, but in the end, I just started the car and went home. By the time
we arrived at Garden Street, Caroline had already fallen asleep

I unfastened her seat belt and carried her back to her room. Her eyes were half-closed, and her
eyelashes were fluttering

“Are we home yet?” she asked drowsily

“Yep.” She looked like she wanted to open her eyes, but she couldn’t resist the urge to sleep and soon
drifted into slumber I bent over and gently placed her on the bed. Then, I sat beside her just to stare at
her pretty face



I brushed the lock of hair off her forehead, and planted a kiss on her forehead. When I looked down at
her finely shaped nose, I kissed it and then planted another kiss on her lips.

It was hard to resist the urge to kiss every inch of her face,

Unable to stand it any longer, she groaned and forcibly opened her eyes. “I want to take a shower.”

“I’ll carry you there.”

“okay”

“Are you going to undress yourself or would you want my help?” I asked.

“Please help me,” she said, reaching out her arms I brushed her hair back and kissed the side of her
face when my fingertips reached the buttons of her clothes, my heart raced for some reason

Soon, I took off her clothes, put them aside, and then I began taking off her pants.

But before I could take them off, she kicked me hard

The kick wasn’t that heavy, but I was caught off guard.I looked at her in disbelief

“What are you doing?”

“What do you think you’re doing?” Carolme asked back, struggling to get up

“Well, you asked me to help you take off your clothes, right?”

“I said no such thing! Why on earth would L. You know what? Get outta here!” Caroline’s face turned
red, and she looked away from me



Obviously, she was just pretending not to remember anything, and she refused to admit what she had
said earlier. I looked at her, speechless and uncertain of to clear things out. Caroline glared at me,
clearly feeling ashamed. Then, she rushed into the bathroom. After taking a shower, she came over
and lifted the quilt.

Because of that, my naked lower body was exposed to the open air Caroline was stunned she looked
away. Visibly panicking

“Charles, why don’t you have any pants on?”

‘I prefer sleeping naked.”

Seeing her blush like that made me chuckle and it put me in a good mood. Then, I slowly used the
quilt to cover myself

After turning off the light, I embraced her. Caroline wanted to break free, but I held her even tighter. I
nuzzled my chin against her hair, and lightly spanked her buttock.

“Time to sleep.” Caroline’s body stiffened for a moment. Satisfied, I closed my eyes and drifted to
sleep. The next morning, I got up early to jog. Once I had completed a lap and a half, I saw a familiar
face approaching me. I quickened my pace to take a closer look. It really was Diego

“I see you’re also here for a morning run, Charles,” Diego greeted me with a smile.

“You’re late, and I’m almost finished” I said, casting him a cold glance.

“Young people like you enjoy sleeping in I guess.”

Diego simply smiled at me and began warming up.

“Would you like to run with me?”



“Sure.” I stopped and waited for him to finish the warm-up. As I looked at his young, handsome face, I
was filled with renewed energy When we started running. I quickened my face and soon left him far
behind I managed to finish three laps around the lake, while Diego only did one and he was already out
of breath.

Gasping for air, he stopped, bent down, and held his knees. His face turned red as he waved at me.

“I… I can’t run anymore Charles, I’m surprised you’re so athletic!”

“I’m surprised you’re so weak” I eyed him up and down, and looked away in disgust.

“He may be young, but he can’t even beat me yet.’

Satisfied, I went home to take a shower and changed my clothes. Then Richard came and reported,
“Boss, Helen is indeed the daughter of Edward’s sister.”

I turned my phone on and told Caroline about the news

That evening, when I was about to pick Caroline up. David called me, asking for help. Because of that,
I had to send Caroline a message regarding this, and told the bodyguards to escort her home. By the
time I finished dealing with David’s problem, it was already past midnight. I went back home and
directly went to the bedroom.

Caroline had already fallen asleep I walked over and squatted at the bedside, watching her sleep as
the bedside lap illuminated her angelic face

“Charles.Caroline was calling out my name in her sleep.It warmed my heart to hear her voice and it
made me smile.I brushed the hair on her cheek and tucked it behind her ear “I’m here,” I whispered

Caroline’s POV



When I opened my eyes in the morning, I saw Charles’s broad chest I stared at hunn for some time His
jawline was perfect and it compelled me to touch it. Before I could move, he woke up

“Do I look handsome?” Charles asked.

“Yes, you are”

Even after so many years, I couldn’t help but be so captivated by his dashing face

“Good morning.” he said, looking right into my eyes. The sound of his still hoarse voice was so sexy

Just seeing him look at me so lovingly warmed my heart. He was so gentle this morning

“Good morning. Were you able to solve David’s problem last night?”

“Yes,” Charles nodded before kissing me on the lips.

My heart trembled. Before I could turn my face away, he held the back of my head and kissed me
passionately. So many years had passed since I first met him. From a kid to an adult, and from being a
little girl to a mother, I was still fond of his lips,

He seldom ever said sweet words, but he was really good at kissing.

I loved kissing him. And each time he kissed me, it filled my heart with desire. I believed that I would
spend the rest of my days with him, and I didn’t want to be with anybody else, Because I was obsessed
with his face, his figure, and his love for me. As long as he could have faith in me, I would forgive him
for what he did. I could tell from Charles’ kiss that he was raging with desire.

I even felt my clothes loosening up.

“Charles,” I murmured.



When he moved away from my lips, I tried to catch my breath.

Thereafter, he planted a kiss on my belly. His kiss was so gentle and loving.

He then rested his head on my tummy and said, “Caroline, I feel like our daughter is saying something
to me.”

“Really? What did she say?” I craned my neck to look directly at his face.

“She said that she likes me.”

“Well, of course, she does! You’ve been looking forward to her arrival for so long.” I broke into laughter
and covered my lower abdomen.

Just then, we heard someone knocking on the door from the outside.

“Daddy, Mommy, get up!” James stood outside the door along with his two younger brothers.

The sound of their voices were getting louder and louder. We could hear the noise from inside the room

Hearing their voices warmed my heart though. Charles and I exchanged glances, put on our clothes,
and prepared to go out. He was moving so sluggishly though. He nuzzled his face against my arms,
refusing to get up for a minute or so. I could feel his lips on my skin. He was creasing his eyebrows.
And I could tell that he was annoyed that we got disturbed

I nudged his shoulder and jokingly said, “Hurry up! The kids are waiting outside.”

“Let them wait! I locked the door last night, so they won’t be able to come in.” Charles chuckled and
planted

another kiss on my lips. Just then, my phone rang, causing us to cease kissing. I stared at him while
wiping my mouth and answering the phone. The call was from Diego. I looked at Charles and saw the



displeasure on his face. He was staring daggers at the phone screen, looking like he was ready to kill
someone.

“Hello?” I answered the phone.

“Caroline, where are you?” asked Diego. Before I could answer, Charles took my phone away. He
gritted his teeth, creased his eyebrows, and gunted.

“Caroline is on her husband’s bed.” Right after he finished his sentence, he hung up. I looked at him.
letting out an exasperated algh,

“Why are you being so childish?”

“He knows that you have a husband, and yet he keeps on bothering you!” Charles responded.

“He’s calling for work,’ I gaich is

“You have no idea what kind of person he really is. What if he’s just taking the opportunity to get closer
to you?” he countered

This time, I was rendered speechless.

Charles pressed his forehead against mine. His gaze was so deep and intense.

“I’ll be away on a business trip, but I’ll be back in three days. Be a good girl and stay at home Make
sure to stay away from Diego!”

“Business trip?” I looked at him, visibly surprised. Why is he leaving so suddenly?’

Charles brushed my hair and replied, “I need to make some negotiations regarding a project personally.
Don’t worry. I’ll be back soon. You can move back to the Moore mansion while I’m away. I’m worried



about you being alone.”

After breakfast, Charles packed his bags and drove me to the Moore mansion. Once we arrived, he left
right away Meanwhile, Alice assisted me to the living room sofa, happily caressing my baby bump.

“Did the baby kick today?” I looked down to touch my baby bump and said, “No.”

“She’s such a good girl. She’s already so considerate of her mother.” Alice stared at my belly,
suppressing her excitement

“By the way, how many days will Charles be away on his business trip?”

“Three days.”

“Actually you can stay here for as long as you like. I’ll ask the cook to prepare nutritious food for you,”
she responded

“Aww Thank you!” Life in the Moore mansion was plain but cozy. In the evening, after taking a shower,
1 leaned against the headboard and couldn’t fall asleep. Charles had been away for two days. It had
only been two days since we last saw each other, but I already missed him so much.

Without him sleeping by my side, I felt like there was a hole in my heart 3 During the middle of that
night, when I finally fell asleep. I felt someone lay beside me on the warm bed I was a light sleeper, so I
was awakened right away

“No need to be afraid. It’s me,” said a man’s voice.

“Charles? | asked tentatively

“Yes, honey It’s me.”

“Aren’t you supposed to return tomorrow?” I looked into his eyes, uncertain if I was just dreaming



He brushed my hair with his palm, and he looked at me lovingly

“Yes, I came back ahead of time. Does that make you happy.”

“Yup!”

“I’m happy too,” he said, kissing my lips Then, he lifted up my pajamas and planted a kiss on my belly

“Did you miss me?”

“We’re a married couple Why do you have to ask that question?” I looked away, trying not to make eye
contact

“I want to hear you say it.” His eyes were filled with desire in this moment

“Of course I do” | giggled, regardless of the fact that I was feeling embarrassed, “What about you? Did
you miss me?”

“Very much so.” Charles murmured, rubbing his nose against mine. Then, he began kissing me “I
missed you so much that I thought I’d die.”

The sound of his husky voice aroused my desire and made me feel like my body was on fire. I tightly
embraced hun and kissed him back

“I don’t want you to die.”

He held my hand, intending to run his hands along my body. My arm almost froze and I immediately
tried to stop him.

“Charles, the doctor said that having sex might cause a miscarriage We shouldn’t do it”

“Alright. I understand.” Charles was patient with me, but he still held my wrist.



“Do you want to do it?”

“No, I don’t.” My face was burning, and I shook my head in dismissal.

“You’re lying.” Charles chuckled as he began to kiss me again.
