Chapter 679

Carried stuttered, “I… I don’t… I don’t want to dance.”

Initially, Carrie sat comfortably on the sofa in the corner. She was sipping juice and enjoying a slice of

cake.

Little did she know that Ryan would insist on dragging her onto the dance floor!

Carrie had seen her parents and Bethany dance, but she felt it was not for her. Besides, she never

expected to be the center of attention in such a setting.

“It’s okay. I’ll teach you slowly, Carrie.” Ryan bent down, placing his hands gently on her shoulders,

patiently coaxing her.

“Ryan, I don’t want to.” Carrie lowered her head, looking pitiful. There was a little smear of cream still

on her lips. “Everyone here can dance so well, but I can’t, and I’ll embarrass you. Besides, I don’t like

crowded places. It makes me anxious.”

Ryan’s eyes narrowed, feeling an indescribable discomfort. The second statement was what truly hit

his heart.

He genuinely cared for her. However, his excitement often led him to get carried away, causing him to

overlook her social anxiety and autism.

“Ryan, are you mad at me?” Carrie felt anxious as she observed his silence. She shuffled her feet

awkwardly.

Ryan quickly kneeled in front of her, revealing a devilishly charming face that could enchant the world.

Using his fingertip, he wiped away the cream from the corner of her lips and licked his fingers.

“Mmm! So sweet!”

Carrie’s rosy cheeks instantly turned red, and she shyly clenched her delicate fists. “Why did you do

that? It’s… It’s so dirty.”

“Why would it be dirty? You’re sweet and fragrant all over, Carrie.” Ryan’s charming eyes sparkled

sincerely. He firmly held her cold. hand, covering it.

Carrie’s heart raced like a startled rabbit. “Really?”

“Of course, when have I ever lied to you?”

When Ryan locked eyes with Carrie, a mischievous thought crossed his mind. He smirked and asked,

“You’ve been sitting quietly all night.

How about letting me teach you to dance?”

“I’m really clumsy.” Carrie confessed, lacking confidence.

“It’s okay. I’ll teach you slowly.” Ryan leaned in close to her ear warm breath teasing her earlobe. “Just

like when I taught you to k

“Ah!” Carrie turned crimson, letting out a surprised exclamation at t unexpected analogy.

Ryan playfully gave himself a light smack on the mouth. “Stay focused! Be serious, you pervert!”

On the other side, the Thompson family’s gathering was equally lively. Sasha was in high spirits,

holding a glass of red wine and dancing with Amelia.

Surprisingly, Mila was dancing with Asher, leaving Ralph dumbfounded!

“Mom! If you want to dance, you could either ask Dad or me. Why are you dancing with Asher?” Ralph

looked at his mother helplessly as she gracefully danced with Asher.

However, it had to be acknowledged that when his mother danced, she not only looked youthful but

also radiated elegance. One could imagine how remarkably beautiful she must have been twenty years

ago.

“I wouldn’t want to dance with you. You’re so clumsy and awkward.

Catching criminals suits you better. Dancing isn’t your thing!” Mila teased as she twirled with Asher.

Ralph shrugged indifferently. “Even if I dance well, what’s the use? It won’t help me catch criminals. Do

you think dancing for them will make them surrender on the spot?”

Mila countered with a smirk, “If you could really do that, it would great. It would save us from using

knives and guns. Just scare th to death on the dance floor!”

The mother and son bantered, bringing continuous laughter to the crowd.

Meanwhile, Roza sat alone in the corner, sipping her drink. She watched the joyful and warm family,

and her eyes gradually reddened with tears.

“Ms. Walker.”

Lost in thought, Roza quickly lifted her gaze. Axel appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of her.

He wore a sunny smile and extended his right hand like a fine gentleman.
