For a moment, Charlotte Thompson's face was tinged with a blush as radiant as the setting sun.
She glared playfully at Justin Battleson, her brows slightly furrowed, and scolded, "Let go of me, the kids are watching."
Hearing this, Justin turned his head to glance at the few little "light bulbs" shining nearby. He raised an eyebrow, but without saying anything, Hank Thompson was the first to shift his gaze away.
"Ah, what a lovely day it is today!"
The other children followed Hank's lead, dramatically averting their gazes in exaggerated fashion, while muttering irrelevant remarks to themselves.
Even though Justin and Charlotte had been in a committed relationship for quite some time, such intimate gestures were fine when they were alone in private.
But for Charlotte, these blatantly affectionate displays in front of the kids still made her feel somewhat embarrassed.
Flustered, Charlotte quickly pushed down Justin's hand and wriggled out of his embrace.
