Emmanuel’s fingers were so long and slender. His palm was so warm against
Claudette’s, and his chest was so firm.-
If she could continue holding onto his hand and taking a stroll while watching
this amazing view, it would be the most romantic moment of her life!
Meanwhile, Emmanuel was oblivious to her thoughts and only noticed how
distracted she had been the entire day. He couldn’t help but wonder if it was
his fault.
“It has been a while since we last bumped into an enemy. Why hasn’t this
game ended yet?” he mused.
After dragging her to a higher vantage point, he had a full view of their
surroundings now. Despite having keen sight, he could not find a single
person nearby.
If not for Claudette’s insistence on winning, he would have gone home long
ago.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs for Claudette, she did not want the game to end, as it would have meant
she no longer had an excuse to enjoy a world with just the two of them.
She desperately cherished every single second they now had to themselves.
“I’m starving, Dr. Lowe,” she exclaimed.
She blinked at him with wide eyes as she patted her flat tummy.
“Oh, let’s have some food, then.”
It was only then Emmanuel recalled that this was merely a game, not an
actual battle.
Thankfully, the two had food in their bags.
However, when the man looked into the bag, he found all the food he had
brought with him had been destroyed and squashed during the game.
“Oh, well. Do you want some of my milk instead, Dr. Lowe?”
She smiled after glancing into his bag.
“Huh? Your… milk?”
He was stunned upon hearing her words. No matter how dense a man was, it
was inevitable for his mind to be in the gutter sometimes.
As a gynecologist, he knew full well that women could never produce milk
unless they had kids.
“It’s dairy milk with oats in it. It’s very filling!”
She pulled out a bottle of milk from her bag and shook it gently in emphasis.
“You only have one bottle, though. You can have it.”
In truth, Emmanuel was not that hungry. Back in the days of carrying out his
missions in the Northern Region, he had even gone through three days
without food. So, this was merely a child’s play.
“Here.”
After taking a gulp from the bottle, Claudette handed it to him. .
He stared at her. However, he had been in the military before, so he did not
hesitate for long after noticing how nonchalant she was about sharing the
bottle of milk. After accepting the bottle, he started drinking it.
:
He took a sip. Before he could wipe his mouth, the lady reached over with a
handkerchief, tenderly wiping his mouth.

Emmanuel hurriedly backed away as he was not in the habit of letting
women wipe his mouth for him.
Claudette beamed at him with eyes curving into crescents. She then
grabbed the bottle of milk and took another sip.
The man did not say anything about it. During his missions, he would
sometimes share a water bottle with Eve as well.
Claudette, however, was on cloud nine on the inside.
It was her first time sharing a drink with a man. Just like Mackenzie, she
thought it was an indirect kiss.
Since he did not mind drinking from a bottle she had taken a sip out of and
vice versa, she wondered if it meant he could accept kissing her.
Just then, she suddenly heard Laura’s voice in her mind, chanting, “Get him!
Get him!”
Claudette pursed her lips and wondered if she should make a move.
Then again, if she let her chance slip by today, she would probably not have
another opportunity to do this again.
Once he fell in love with Mackenzie, she would never stand a chance at
winning him over anymore.
