"To tie your hair with," came Maurice’s gentle reply.
Charmine’s hair was all over her face, and it did discomfort her.
She reached out to take it, but since the IV was still embedded into her skin, she felt uncomfortable.
Maurice reached out to take his tie back. 'Til do it."
Her blood might flow backward if she lifted her hand.
Charmine stiffened at the warmth that radiated from his palms.
Instinctively, she wanted to turn him down, but spotting the reporter from the corner of her eyes trying to take photos of them, she withdrew her hand and relented, "Okay."
Although Maurice was quite clumsy, he tied her hair for her as gently as he could.
The ends of the tie cascaded with her ponytail, and it made her appear peaceful, complimenting her aloof temperament.
Maurice then supported her to admire the flowers and fed the fishes.
The two of them only returned that noon. 1
Charmine sat on the sofa and picked up her phone to scroll through Tweeter.
As expected, the private photos of her with Maurice at the garden made it to the most-searched list again.
#Charmine-Maurice-rainbow-after-storm.
#Tie-around-her-hair.
The people online went ballistic at the news.
[OMG! Charmine is so lucky! I felt so jealous of her when he tied his tie around her hair!] [Using a tie to tie the hair? I learned something new!] [I want a boyfriend who ties my hair with his tie, too!] [Why is Maurice so thoughtful? His eyes are so sincere as well!] [I ship this couple! I can't wait for Recovery to start streaming!] [This is too sweet! Do they want us to go to heaven that fast? Ugh, I'm jealous!] [Charmine has to treat Maurice well! Don't hurt a man who treats you right!]
Charmine read the comments and did not bother to clarify the situation.
She went back to her feed and, thinking things through, posted one line.
[Mo is so kind to me.]
Anthony was having a meeting at his company. The seats in the room were occupied by men in suits, all looking at their documents. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Suddenly...
Ding!
A ring broke the silence in the room, and it startled everyone, causing them to check their phones.
Only Anthony nonchalantly picked up his phone. He saw a notification from Tweeter that read, [Your special follow, Charmine Jordan just posted a status after 43 days! Hurry and check it out!]
That took him by surprise.
What did she post?
Anthony instantly clicked on it. All he saw was that simple sentence.
The sentence felt like a thousand sharp knives had stabbed right into his heart.
He clenched his phone tightly, trying to ease off his anger. He clicked into her articles.
He saw the #tie-on-hair headlines and photos. His eyes narrowed.
Crash!
He smashed his phone on the floor.
Everyone shivered in terror; they dared not even breathe. They lowered their heads quietly.
Anthony glared at them. "Cancel all plans today!"
Everyone's face changed. They exchanged perplexed looks but dared not question him.
Anthony glanced at them coldly and snapped, "Get out!"
The crowd dared not speak. They quickly packed up their belongings as though chased by a ghost, rushing out hastily once they finished. 2
Anthony leaned on the chair and pressed his head. He seemed to be holding back his anger.
However, he could not help seeing the image of Charmine with her arms around Maurice. He could no longer hold back.
His eyes glinted darkly. As if unleashing his anger at last, he threw the documents, as well as the laptop and coffee, over the table. Everything fell to the floor.
