Philip looked at her with a flat expression. “Why should I be angry?”

Barbara took a deep breath. “Since earlier, you haven’t wanted to talk

“I think my presence here makes you uncomfortable. So, why am I talking? Please wait until the afternoon. Nora will come.”

Philip sat down and picked up his tablet again. His demeanor was calm. However, Barbara could see a faint throbbing in Philip’s jaw.

“Are you offended?”

Philip looked at her coldly. “Why am I offended? I’m nothing to you, right?”

Barbara bit her lip. Her eyes started to fill with tears.

“Sorry, I was just trying to make the atmosphere better. But I didn’t mean….”

The girl was unable to continue explaining for a few moments.

“The point is I’m sorry.”

Barbara started scratching her nail. Even though her gaze had shifted, Philip knew there was sadness there.

“Are you sorry you rejected me?”

“I’m not rejecting you.” Barbara’s voice trembled.
