Love Began with the First Meeting -
Chapter 1199 Extra Story 89 Of Charlie Edge For Love
"Wait. What? What do you mean by saying the half owner of the group?" Elsa stammered alarmed with her cheeks red with embarrassment.
Charlie smiled when he saw her surprised expression. "Don't you remember that you agreed to my request?"
Elsa was speechless, not knowing what the right response was at this moment. She stared at Charlie in silence and blinked at him innocently as if to say she didn't have a choice but to agree since everyone around her was telling her to.
All of a sudden, he took Elsa's tiny hands and looked down at them. They were only half the size of his. Charlie could easily hold them both in one hand. "I brought you here just to give you a quiet environment to think." As he spoke, he looked up and gazed into Elsa's eyes with his head on a slight angle. With a sincere and affectionate look in his eyes, he said, "I want to ask you. Are you sure you want to be with me?" After a short pause, he continued, "No matter who I am, or what my stature is and no matter how good I am, are you sure you want to stand by my side?"
Elsa listened carefully to Charlie's words, and his deep feelings touched her. After thinking about it for a while, she looked at him with teary eyes and said, "I can't believe how narcissistic you are."
"I'm conditioned to be narcissistic," replied Charlie at once. "What's your answer?"
Once again, Elsa stammered with her cheeks even redder. "I... I replied to you a moment ago, didn't I?"
"But I would like an answer from you again now that you don't have any pressure from anyone else." Charlie was trying his best to stop Elsa from avoiding his question.
Elsa blushed under his intent gaze. She furrowed her brows as if deep in thought and bit her lip. Then she slowly nodded her consent. With a bashful smile on her face, she said, "Please, don't bully me like you did when we were kids!"
Charlie pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly to him. He closed his eyes with a content smile on his face and said in a low husky voice, "I promise I won't. From now on, no one can bully you, including me. You and Evelyn will be the only ones whom I will allow to bully me. Only the two of you will have such a privilege to do so."
With a big happy smile on her face, Elsa felt on top of the world at this moment. Regardless of what would happen in the future, what she felt right now in her heart was as sweet as honey.
Meanwhile, at the dinner party, the Dragon team had ordered the food from the A-magic catering center which was owned by the Dragon Empire Group. The menu had been arranged in a more genial buffet style that allowed people to engage in conversation while they dined. The topic of discussion ranged from the game to the characters to real life.
Olivia fixed her eyes on Quiet Misery, who was sitting alone next to a window. She had an array of thoughts running through her mind and complex feelings in her heart. The feeling that she felt in her heart right now was hard to describe. When she had finally discovered that the man she had feelings for such a long time turned out to be a woman, in the end, Olivia was heartbroken. The woman had been using a lady boy account for this whole time. The more Olivia thought about it, the worse she felt. When the waiter walked past her, carrying cocktails on a tray, she quickly picked one glass off the cocktail tray and gulped it down all at once.
"Can she hold her liquor?" Ann asked while she watched Olivia drink the cocktail.
Anna looked in Olivia's direction and shrugged her shoulders. "Well, Olivia will need time to lick her wounds... Um, the baked snail tastes so good. You should try it!"
"Does it?" Ann placed a baked snail onto her plate and tried it. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Wow, this is really good! Anything from A-magic restaurant is excellent!"
"Well, the Dragon had spared no expense this time," asserted Anna as she carefully surveyed the place again. As an analyst, she knew a lot about the operations of large groups. Though the Dragon Empire Group owned the Dragon, such fees for the event today were self-financing by the Dragon. Therefore the costs were enormous.
Neither Ann nor Anna had participated in the game. So the two of them just ate the food and chatted merrily, enjoying everything at the dinner party. However, since they were Olivia's friends, they had the moral obligation to look after her, so nothing crazy happened. They wondered how Olivia was going to cope now that her fantasy of a secret love had died.
Finally, after struggling with her emotions for half an hour, Olivia had summoned up the courage to approach Quiet Misery. Quiet Misery was sitting in a relatively quiet area away from everyone else. It seemed strange that no one dared bother her. Perhaps it was because of her cold and aloof appearance that everyone kept away from her, or because both men and women disliked this tough woman.
"Hello... I... I'm the..." Olivia stammered, failing to finish her sentence. Quiet Misery looked up and stared at her with a blank expression on her face. Olivia breathed in deeply to try and calm her nerves then bit her lip, fixing her eyes on Quiet Misery. "I'm Intoxicating Smile... And I..."
With a slight smile on her face, Quiet Misery replied in a peaceful tone, "I know." She noticed Olivia's uneasiness and added, "You follow all of my posts and every conversation about me, don't you?" The tone of her voice was lazy as if she was talking about someone else rather than herself.
While Quiet Misery reminded her of everything she did, Olivia blushed in shame, and her cheeks burned like hot coals. Fortunately, the lighting in the restaurant was dim, and no one could see the discomfort on Olivia's face at that moment. "Yes, you're right." Olivia could only mumble back sheepishly.
"Are you disappointed after seeing me in person?" asked Quiet Misery smiling.
Olivia didn't expect that Quiet Misery would ask such a question. She became speechless and couldn't think of what to say at this moment.
Quiet Misery smiled knowingly as she could see all too well by Olivia's reaction what she was thinking. "If it makes you feel any better, I'm not the real Quiet Misery." Although Quiet Misery was smiling, Olivia could feel the coldness behind her eyes. Quiet Misery had put up a barrier as if she refused to let anyone into her heart. "The man that you have a crush on used to be my man. But he's not mine now!" Olivia gaped wide-eyed at her. Regardless of the surprised look on Olivia's face, Quiet Misery continued, "This used to be his account when he played. After we separated, I started to used it. Ironically I named this account at the beginning. Perhaps I should have called it something else because he left me in misery." When she had finished, she shrugged her shoulders. "I never posted anything. All the posts that you followed were all written by him. So, in hindsight, you don't have a crush on a woman."
The corners of Olivia's mouth twitched, she felt exposed and self-conscious being analyzed by someone else in public. She didn't know how else to respond so ended up smiling faintly. "Well... I just..."
"He and I used to play the game together. However, just like the mistake you had made, he went to Dragon Flying while I wrongly went to Dragon Yelling. I have another player account, which is Rosemary in the Madness Is Good."00
