After a full round, she was huffing and puffing with fatigue, while he remained calm and composed, who was the host here, really!
"Mr. Cliff, if there's nothing else, please leave. It's late, and I need to rest!" She put on a stern face and showed him out.
She wished he would stay, but under what status?
Besides, she didn't even know his purpose for coming, which left her feeling uneasy.
"Tired from taking care of the child?" His question was off-topic again. Charlotte Green didn't want to answer, but it seemed like he wouldn't relent so easily.
"No matter how tiresome, it's still happiness," she admitted truthfully, her lips curving into a slight smile.
"Hmm," he responded tersely, then fell into an awkward silence.

Charlotte Green didn't know what to say, and he still hadn't stated his reason for coming, making it awkward for her to keep asking.
