Chapter 942 I Can Help
Joe and Charlotte were not in a hurry to complete the task. They took Ben and Anna to wander around the town. The Castle Town wasn’t big, and there were only five or six streets in total. The small shops had their own characteristics. It could be seen at a glance that they were old. “Wow! This street is so beautiful!” Anna and Ben walked onto the main street holding hands, their eyes full of shock. Castle Town lived up to its name. Almost all the buildings were designed like a castle. They had spires, and there were miniature castles. Charlotte even saw a bar built like a castle wall.
Many people were coming and going to the bar. Charlotte glanced regretfully at Ben and Anna. Minors were not allowed to enter the bar, so they could only go to the café next door. As soon as they entered the café, Charlotte smelled the strong aroma of
coffee. A kind-faced old woman was looking at them with a smile behind the counter. “What would you like to drink?” The older lady asked softly. Her eyes fell on Ben and Anna, and her eyes became a little softer. After Ben and Anna looked at the menu carefully, they each ordered a small cake and sat down at the table to enjoy it happily. Seeing the two kids’ happy faces, Joe and Charlotte smiled at each other. At this moment, the older lady smiled and sent the coffee to the table beside them. Only then did Charlotte notice that there was an older man with gray hair sitting at the next table, who seemed to be immersed in drawing something.
Her attention was attracted by him unconsciously. After taking a closer look, she found it was a blueprint of a castle. “Is he also an architect?” She thought. As if aware of Charlotte’s gaze, the older man raised his head and smiled at her. “Are you interested?” He asked. “I…” Before Charlotte finished speaking, a kitten suddenly jumped onto near coffee table and knocked over the coffee that the older lady had just served. The older man exclaimed and quickly picked up the drawings. But it was too late. The thick drawings were stained by coffee, and many places could not even be seen clearly. The older lady hurriedly came over and yelled at the kitten, “Callie!” When she saw the older man’s drawings, she looked even more sullen. “I’m sorry. If it weren’t for Callie…” The older man smiled and shook his head. “It’s not a big deal. I was just too careless.” “But…” Seeing that the older man really didn’t take it to heart, the older lady obviously felt even more guilty. “If I remember correctly, these blueprints will be handed in today, right?” The older man nodded and said, “It doesn’t matter. I’ll just paint it again after I go back.” The older lady glared at him. “Do you think I don’t know? You’ve been drawing it in for a month. How could you finish it so easily?” Charlotte glanced at the drawings in the older man’s hand. There were around seven or eight pieces of it. It was indeed impossible to reproduce them in one night. She thought for a while and suddenly interrupted their conversation, “Maybe I can help.”
The older man, who wanted to continue putting the older lady off, turned to look at Charlotte in surprise. “You?” Charlotte smiled and nodded. “I’m also a building designer. Although I have never been exposed to castle design, fortunately, I learn things quickly and may be able to help you.”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
