Chapter 439
“I’ll go with you,” Charlotte said with a grin. “I like thrill rides too
“I’m in,” Sean added, following after her.
“Wait for me! I’m coming too,” tan chimed in quickly.
A tiny smirk tugged at Mia’s lips.
Jan had always been a scaredy–cat when it came to thrill rides. Normally, he wouldn’t go near them no matter what. But here he was, chasing after them like his life depended on it.
Mia headed straight for the front row–the most intense spot on the ride.
Charlotte took the second row, leaving the seat beside Mia open for lan.
Sean sat down next to Charlotte. “Nervous?” he asked.
“A little.”
He reached over and held her hand, his touch warm and steady. “Don’t worry. I’m right here.”
Charlotte’s heart fluttered. She didn’t pull her hand away.
As the roller coaster began its slow climb, Ian was already screaming.
Mia turned and rolled her eyes. “Why come on if you’re scared? No one forced you.”
Ian shot back, “I only came because you–AHHH!”
Before he could finish, the coaster picked up speed and he let out a full–throated scream.
Mia started yelling too but hers was out of excitement, not fear.
Sean stayed calm, gripping Charlotte’s hand tightly. It was his first time on a ride like this, but he wasn’t scared.
Charlotte screamed beside him, her voice blending with the roar of the wind.
He squeezed her hand a little harder, quietly staying by her side the whole way.
After the ride, Ian staggered off and ran straight to the trash can, throwing up.
Mia patted his back and handed him a water bottle. “You’re such a lightweight. Can’t handle it but still insist on going.”
Ian’s face was completely pale.
Lena stood nearby, trying not to laugh.
“Looks like they’re back on good terms,” she muttered.
She had to admit that her idea actually worked.
Sean opened a water bottle and handed it to Charlotte. “Here. Drink some.”
“Thanks,” Charlotte said, taking a few sips.
“Still dizzy?” he asked.
“I’m okay. Just a little lightheaded.”
“Let’s take a short break before we go on another ride.”
“Sounds good.”

While they were on the roller coaster, Jordan had taken Liz to the carousel and snapped a bunch of photos for her.
“Baby, you look adorable in these,” he said as he scrolled through his gallery, smiling at her.
Charlotte and Lena exchanged glances.
