Chapter 244
Wanda couldn’t help but chuckle at Carlisle’s words.
“Is there really something you’re afraid to ask? Go ahead!”
Carlisle gazed at Wanda’s youthful face and asked solemnly, “Really?”
“Yes.”
Wanda looked at Carlise expectantly, nodding her head.
“Just… just… never mind!”
Carlisle hesitated for a long time, then deliberately played coy.
“Oh, come on. You’re just teasing me. Tell me.”
Wanda was starting to get annoyed.
“Alright… Here it goes!”
Carlisle seemed to muster a lot of courage before looking at Wanda. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
He asked earnestly, “Wanda, may I kiss you?”
“What?”
Wanda looked at Carlisle in shock, her cheeks blooming with a deep blush.
Carlisle pursed his lips and said, “I told you I shouldn’t ask, but you insisted…”
“Alright.”
Wanda managed only a whisper, a soft confession meant only for herself.
Her heart raced, and her breathing quickened.
“What?” Carlisle echoed, genuinely stunned.
He had only meant to divert the conversation so Wanda wouldn’t probe into his affairs.
Who would have thought Wanda would actually agree to his request?
“Never mind. Let’s head back to school.”
Wanda got up and started walking ahead. She regretted it.
Leon was nearby, watching her and Carlisle.
He wondered how she could have agreed to such a request.
Wanda didn’t dare to continue walking as she walked through the lit area under the street lamp. She glanced back to see if Carlisle was following.

As she expected, Carlisle was right behind her, his expression intense and focused.
Wanda felt anxious.
“Carlisle, just calm down-”
But before she could complete her sentence, Carlisle closed the distance between them and gently pressed his lips to hers.
Wanda’s eyes widened in surprise. Her mind went blank as if she had forgotten how to breathe.
And just like that, her first kiss was gone.
Carlisle was also very nervous at that moment.
After two lifetimes, he had finally experienced his first kiss.
As Carlisle sought to deepen the kiss, Wanda pushed him away gently and took a deep breath.
Carlisle was still caught up in the excitement.
He chuckled, “Wanda, your lips are so soft!”
“You even dare to say it aloud…”
Wanda then stomped her foot, visibly flustered and blushing.
“Who said you could kiss me?”
Her tone wasn’t angry but carried a hint of jest.
At the sight of Wanda’s adorable reaction, Carlisle reached to kiss her again.
She quickly covered her mouth with her hand, causing Carlisle to kiss the back of her hand instead.

Wanda’s muffled voice emerged from behind her hand.
“Next… Let’s kiss next time!”
“Alright. As you wish!”
Carlisle was content with her response. He understood the importance of pacing their advances to keep their budding relationship comfortable for both of them.
Internally, he harbored hopes for a more intimate kiss the next time, though he wondered when that might
- be.
He sighed softly and continued walking, holding Wanda’s hand gently.
Wanda walked beside him, her thoughts swirling with their recent encounter.
She was confused and questioned her reaction to their kiss.
She contemplated the experience should have felt more profound, given it was her first kiss.
The thought lingered that perhaps she should have embraced the moment a little longer.

She scolded herself for being too hasty.
As they exited Yearning Island, they reached the dock to take the boat back to the mainland.
The boatman greeted them with alarming news.
“You really dared to come back? I just saw dozens of thugs with iron rods on the shore. It looks like they
might be that old lady’s son and his gang!”
