Chapter Mommy 248
Chapter 248
Charlie had been waiting at the entrance for a long time.
Kamryn felt a little awkward. She tidied up her hair and smoothed the creases on the hem of her dress before walking toward him with slight hesitation. He saw her from a distance
It was already dusk.
In the twilight, she walked toward him against the light. As the golden sunset glimmer shone on her, she looked attractive as if she was glowing.
Today, she was wearing a knee-length dress with delicate pink petals embroidered on it. At first glance, it was as if she was wrapped in flowers. The thin layer of gauze on the fluffy hem of the dress fluttered like pink butterfly wings, revealing her well-proportioned legs. Kamryn didn't
on any makeup since she was pregnant. However, with her delicate oval face and her striking facial features, she still looked extremely beautiful even without much makeup.
She was born with thick eyelashes and rosy lips. Her lips already looked naturally lustrous with a little bit of lip gloss on them.
She put her hands behind her back. Her cheeks flushed red, making it seem that she had applied blushes to her face. She seemed to be a little bashful, but in a charming way when she slowly walked toward him under the spectacular sunset, shrouded in a breathtaking glow.
He couldn't take his eyes off his beautiful beloved woman when she dressed up.
Charlie peered at her, unconcealed amazement glittering in his eyes.
She walked up to him, stood still, and explained shyly in a low voice with her head down. I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. There was a traffic jam on the way here, so I was late."
"I didn't wait for too long."
It wasn't until this moment that Charlie came to his senses. He took her hand and kissed her on the forehead.
"It's already great that you're here."
In truth, he had long since arrived.
He had intentionally arrived much ahead of time for fear that she would also arrive ahead of the appointed time.
He felt it was worth it no matter how long he had waited at the sight of her.
"Uh... have you been waiting for a long time?"
Charlie replied with a smile, "Yes, I feel like I've been waiting for a whole century for your appearance."
He sounded like he was expressing his love.
"You're exaggerating, aren't you?"
Kamryn chuckled and held his big palm.
Her hand was wrapped in the warmth of his palm
Kamryn suddenly had an illusion that such warmth was born for her.
"Then.... what are we going to do for today's date?"
"It's already seven."
Charlie raised his hand and looked at his watch, saying, "Let's have dinner first."
She nodded, only to see him holding her hand and leading her into the ancient town. She raised her eyebrows in surprise and Chapter 248
said, "This scenic area is not open to the public at night, is it?"
The South Lake Ancient Town was the most famous ancient town in Faycaster. In addition to its poetic and classic features, it was mostly famous for the love story about the Dove Bridge on South Lake.
There was a sad and beautiful love story about the Dove Bridge.
In the story, a young man of humble birth named Maurice and the justiciar's daughter, Lily, fell in love with each other. However, the justiciar had already arranged a marriage to another wealthy and powerful man for Lily, so he forbade her from seeing Maurice. With the help of her maids, Lily finally managed to see Maurice on the Dove Bridge.
They pledged marriage and forever love to each other. Maurice promised that he would marry her when he became successful.
When Maurice went to the capital for a better career, Lily watched eagerly on the Dove Bridge as he left.
However, he didn't see his beloved woman for a long time when he returned to the Dove Bridge as he had promised after he was promoted to a high position.
Then, he finally found out that when Justiciar forced Lily to marry someone else, she was powerless to resist, so she had helplessly jumped off the Dove Bridge and died down the lake out of her wholehearted devotion to Maurice on the night before he returned. Maurice was so heartbroken that he also threw himself into the lake and died for love several nights after Lily's death.
In the later generations, legend had it that the two of them had been incarnated as a pair of lovebirds and could finally be together forever in the bustling world.
It was a romantic story where lovers would eventually get together.
It was also said that lovers would be together happily for the rest of their lives if they crossed the Dove Bridge.
"It's different today, Charlie said as he held her hand tightly. "Tonight, South Lake will only be open to us.
Kamryn couldn't help but wonder what kind of unique date this man had prepared for them when she saw him act so mysteriously.
As soon as the two of them walked into the ancient town, she was shocked to see the scene ahead of them.
The night had quietly fallen.
In the dim moonlight, the lake was glittering, shrouded in the cool mist. It was like a fairyland.
On the lake in the hazy mist, a small boat slowly drifted across the lake, rippling the lake. Colorful fish danced with their tails and played freely in the clear lake..
Across the lake, Kamryn could see the lights shining on the opposite shore.
It was a classic ancient street hung with red lanterns. It was also one of the characteristics of the South Lake scenic area.
The South Lake scenic area was the most well-preserved ancient town in Faycaster. The residents in the scenic area were all locals who had been living here for generations. A few decades ago, this place was still the center of the old city. Later, the tourist bureau had issued a document to develop this place into a place of interest, which had met with the residents" resistance at first.
The residents had thought that South Lake would be reduced to a stereotyped shopping district and lose its original unique features and scenery once it was overdeveloped.
Moreover, they were unwilling to let the authorities requisite their lands.
They had been living around South Lake for generations, so they had collectively protested about the requisition and development.
After several years of negotiation, the residents of South Lake and the tourist bureau had both made a concession. The residents had agreed to develop this area into a scenic spot while the tourist bureau had also agreed to not requisite their 10:34 AM

lands
In this way, the most pure culture and scenery of South Lake was preserved.
Kamryn walked across the bluestone bridge and was a little stunned when she looked at the long rows of stores.
She had never come to South Lake though she grew up in Faycaster.
She was not available or interested because it was always crowded here.
It was to her surprise that Charlie had arranged their date here.
She was dazzled by so many stores on the ancient street.
Some stores sold handicrafts and snacks, including cotton candy, pancakes, and waffles...
Kamryn drooled over the cotton candy, staring at it for a long time.
The cotton candy was different from the ones she had eaten before. It had all kinds of fruit flavors and looked extremely exquisite.
Charlie walked over and bought two skewers of it for her when he saw her eager look
"The cotton candy here is also special."
Kamryn took a skewer of cotton candy and took a bite. Her eyes shone with satisfaction when her mouth was filled with sweetness.
"It tastes so good!"
She asked Charlie to take a bite as well,
Charlie and she strolled silently along the path paved with bluestone hand in hand by the lake.
They were far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Their restless hearts also calmed down in such a tranquil ancient streel.
"Ordinary life is also happy!"
