Chapter 675

Elysia pinched the soft flesh of her palm hard, her eyes brimming with tears, "Why didn't you respond when you saw my message?" "I... I'm sorry."

Sorry?

He was apologizing to her!

So, he was rejecting her feelings!

Elysia felt a pang of heartache, just like any girl whose confession had been turned down, her tears uncontrollably mixed with the rain, thankfully concealing her sorrow from him.

"I get it." Elysia forced herself to sound calm, pretending to be unharmed, "I just said it in case you were down because of Keith, to cheer you up. Don't take it seriously."

What she implied was clear: It's fine you don't like me, because I don't like you either!

Tarquin was confused,

"But didn't your last message ask me to reply asap, wanting to talk about us?"

Elysia paused, "That was the one before! The last one was a voicemail!"

"Voicemail? You sent me a voicemail?"
