Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 204 Lack of Maternal Love

Unexpectedly, she’d run into Sean at the hospital where she least expected it of all places.

Erin quickly lowered her gaze, concealing the trace of astonishment in her eyes. Seeing the bouquet of flowers by her feet, she understood Sean’s intention. He must have come to visit Alana.

Applying some force. Erin pushed him away. Then, she said in a rather formal tone. “Sir, you can let go of me now. I’m fine.”

When Sean saw Erin’s eyes, he was already somewhat mesmerized. Hearing her voice, he couldn’t help but softly call, “Erin-”

Erin’s body stiffened, but Sean still held onto her. Her tone indicated that she was getting annoyed. “Sir, please let go of me!”

Her gaze turned cold, and in an instant. Sean released her, but he could still feel her warmth on his palms. He felt a bit embarrassed as he said, “I’m sorry… Your eyes and your voice really resemble a friend of mine.”

A faint gleam shimmered in Erin’s slightly lowered eyes. Her heart palpitated violently. In the hospital room earlier, not even Chandler had noticed anything special about her. On the contrary, Sean was the first to notice.

Erin didn’t speak and kept her gaze lowered. She lifted her hand to smooth out the wrinkles on her dress. She could sense that Sean had

been observing her every move.

The more he did that, the more she needed to appear composed. Erin raised her head to look at him again. “Sir, it was my fault for bumping into you earlier. I apologize for it. I have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving. If you need compensation for your flowers, I won’t object. Please let me know the price.”

As Sean listened to her words, he casually glanced at the bouquet on the ground and immediately squatted down to pick it up. The exquisite and handsome face he’d once possessed was no longer as fair as it used to be. Now, Sean’s skin had become tanned due to his

two years of military service, so he exuded a masculine charm now.

His short haircut complemented his features and looked natural without any hair gel. There was a fresh scent of soap coming from his

body, and his casual denim outfit added to his relaxed demeanor.
