Gareth snorted and said, “You don’t seem satisfied with the result. Do you think that I’m just winning
because I have the majority? Do you want to fight one–on–one with me?”
Austin remained silent. He turned and went out with Sarah and Sienna.
Zoe turned to leave as well, but Gareth said coldly, “I told you to kneel and apologize. Do you think you
can just leave?”
There was a bunch of women whispering to each other at a table in the corner.
Luna and Queenie were among them.
Queenie had been worried for Carlisle and Wanda at first, but then Gareth had called over Manny, one of
Titan’s confidantes.
Luna said quietly, “Queenie, I think you were right!”
Queenie was startled. “What?”
Luna blushed and said, “Well… Gareth and Naomi didn’t sleep together, so I have the right to try and pursue my happiness, too!”
Queenie rolled her eyes. “I thought you said you didn’t want to be a replacement for Naomi.”
Luna was starry–eyed. “But he’s so cool! I can’t help liking him!”
Carlisle obviously had no idea what was going on.
However, Arthur had messaged him.
Carlisle had texted Arthur when Sienna and the others started making calls.
By the time Arthur rushed over, the cafe was already surrounded by people, which was why he hadn’t -gone in. He had remained in the crowd of onlookers outside.
Carlisle was in class when he saw the message Arthur sent, and there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
Gareth had attracted too much attention this time. He wasn’t an average person, and someone might
seize the opportunity to find leverage over him.
He sent a message to Gareth. “There are too many people watching. Don’t go too far!”
The message had prompted Gareth to let Gaston and his men go.
Zoe knelt to apologize.
Sienna was the worst off, Her cheeks were swollen, but she had brought it all on herself.
If Carlisle had been the one to handle it, he wouldn’t have let her off easily, either.
Mentioning the kidnapping in front of Wanda was tantamount to pouring salt in her wound
After class that afternoon, Carlisle brought Wanda to the cafeteria for lunch.
Wanda’s sense of taste hadn’t fully recovered yet, so she craved spicy food. Carlisle refused to let her have any, so she sulked, looking aggrieved.
He remained adamant despite her sulking.
She had cramps, and if she were to eat something that would upset her stomach further, she would be sure to suffer for it.
Wanda didn’t eat much, and Carlisle didn’t have much appetite either. He brought her back to the
apartment to rest.
Wanda wrapped herself in her blankets and ignored him.
However, it was dark under the blankets.
She poked her head out timidly and was even more frightened when she realized Carlisle wasn’t in the room. She put on her slippers to go and look for him.
Carlisle was in the kitchen, making hot chocolate.
When he saw Wanda standing piteously at the door to the kitchen, he felt amused. “What’s the matter, babe? Can’t you sleep?”
“Hmph…” Wanda crossed her arms over her chest and turned her head away.
Carlisle suddenly felt that she was adorable when she was angry.
He wished he could grab her and plant a few kisses on her.
He poured the hot chocolate he had made into a mug and walked over to her. “Alright, don’t be angry. I don’t want you to have spicy food for your own good. Once your period is over, I’ll buy you whatever you
want to eat!”
Wanda had always been easily placated, even after she became ill.
Her expression softened at his words.
The two of them sat on the sofa. Carlisle took a sip of the hot chocolate and grabbed Wanda’s chin to
feed it to her.
After drinking half of it, Wanda could not drink anymore.
Carlisle said sternly, “Phoebe says that you have a heavy period flow. You’ve got to drink more of this to
feel better!”
Wanda had gone to the toilet,three times that morning, and Phoebe and Christine had been with her every Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
time.
Phoebe had reported Wanda’s condition to Carlisle so he would be aware.

After giving her the last spoonful of hot chocolate, Carlisle took her face in his hands and kissed her for a
while.
There was a series of knocks on the door, so he let her go and went to open it.
He looked through the peephole and froze.
