Chapter 233 Celebration (2/2)
Her lips quivered and she pulled on her hair nervously, looking at Sam with fear in her eyes.
Kyle noted it too and said with a smile, ”Just ignore all of that setting. It's just us here so we don't have to follow the rules so much.”
”But I still want to know how to use them,” Betty said in a small voice. The last thing she wanted was to embarrass Sam, or Kyle.
Sam was Kyle's PA and was most likely would be exposed to this sort of setting in the future. If Betty couldn't understand them or know how to act, then wouldn't she not be able to follow Sam if the situation requires it?
When Betty expressed her desire to learn, Sam felt like his heart was going to burst. For her to want this, meant that she was envisioning that she would be by his side in the future. Though that was something he had already felt to be certain, he wasn't sure how Betty felt about it.
To have her accept it like it was a given made him happy beyond belief.
So Sam began explaining what they were.
”The primary rule to remember is to use the cutlery from outside to inside,” he said as he pointed at the various cutlery there.
”This plate is the dinner plate, where we will have our main course. The bowl is the soup bowl so that means we will have that as our starter,” Sam continued.
”The small plate on the left there is known as the butter plate. They'll put bread and butter there, so the butter knife is for spreading butter on the bread, if you want to. Most eat the buttered bread with the soup,” he said softly, leaning closer to Betty as he pointed at the butter plate.
Betty's face was slowly getting red as she could feel Sam's closeness, his breath casually brushing against her cheek as he looked at her then at the cutlery as he explained.
Kyle saw all of this and snickered inside.
Sam was truly a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Looking all innocent on the outside but doing all these tricks. To think that he is a year younger than them. As Kyle took a sip from his glass, he thought he should keep a close eye on Sam.
Since he had, more or less, brought them together, Kyle felt it was his responsibility to ensure that Sam didn't cross the line.
Well, perhaps that was still the Kylie in him taking over.
Still, Kyle was well aware of how the raging hormones can sometimes take over all rationality, especially when one is drunk in love. No matter what, Kyle didn't want any of them to become adults too soon.
Even though Sam was more matured than most guys his age.
He continued observing them, not interrupting at all as Sam finished his explanation. Betty then recited again what Sam had said and when she got it all correct, Sam smiled broadly and gave her a kiss.
She pushed him away, scolding him and he just laughed.
”Sam, you really should learn how to reward your Little Bunny in another way in public,” Kyle said, pointing at him, ”Otherwise, you're going to be labeled a pervert.”
”He is a pervert,” Xing Han said, ”But that's not the point here.”
”Yeah,” Kay said, glaring at Sam, ”It's fine with us, but you'll just embarrass Betty Think about her feelings, you know?”
”Whoa,” Ali said, tut-tutting at Sam, ”If Princess Kay starts scolding, you know you had been bad.”
Sam looked suitably contrite and looked at Betty with concern, ”I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking.”
Betty smiled, caressing his cheek, ”It's okay, Sam.”
”And you!” Kay cut in, smacking Betty on the shoulder, ”You're part of the reason why Sam goes overboard sometimes. Stop letting him get away with it.”
Betty pouted but she couldn't deny it.
Even though she was sometimes embarrassed by his actions, she couldn't quite scold him for it. She partly liked it and wanted Sam to always be so caring, but she was also partly uncomfortable with it if people were looking.
Seeing how both of them looked quite upset, Kay softened her tone and patted Betty's shoulder, saying, ”Just be more firm with Sam, okay? If you don't like him doing it, then tell him.”
”But ... but I do like his kisses,” Betty said with a very low voice.
Kay rolled her eyes. This Betty was just too honest with her feelings.
”Of course you do, but you don't like him doing it all the time in front of everyone, right?” Kay pressed on.
Betty nodded then snuck a glance at Sam, worried if he was upset.
Sam, on the other hand, was feeling quite embarrassed now. He was thinking ... was he really that bad?
When he thought back about the times he kissed her since they got together, he gulped.
Ye gads. He really WAS that bad!!
