Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)
Chapter 8
"Maddie, Mr. Gildon would like to speak for you." Kara Spraggins, who had come with me, held out the phone.
I had underestimated Chris' persistence. In this situation, I had no choice but to take the phone. I spoke very formally. "Mr. Gildon, what can I do for you?"
"Maddie." Chris' hoarse voice was filled with guilt. "Why did you leave so early today? I came home but couldn't give you a lift."
Realizing he wasn't talking about work, I walked a bit further away. "I went out for breakfast."
"I'm sorry. I couldn't leave last night. That's why I didn't come home."
My heart grew cold, a sarcastic smirk on my lips. "Why couldn't you leave?"
When he didn't answer me, I held my breath and gave him an out. "Couldn't find a nurse?"
He said hesitantly, "Yes."
I didn't say anything more.
Chris continued, "Maddie, when will you be done? I'll come pick you up, and we can have lunch together."
We hadn't had lunch together in a long time.
According to what Yerick said last night, Chris had been spending his time with Jewel.
Was he suddenly asking me out of guilt for leaving me halfway last night, or did he suddenly have a conscience?
I didn't know, and I didn't want to tire my brain cells guessing. I replied indifferently, "I'm not sure. It might not even be finished by noon. Besides, don't you have something to do every day at noon now?" "Maddie." Chris must have caught my sarcasm. He called out my name sternly, only to pause for two seconds before he said, "Don't overthink it."
He left me in bed when we were in the middle of doing it last night. What else could I be overthinking about?
Not wanting to discuss personal matters during working hours, I told him, "I'm busy right now. I'm hanging up if there's nothing else."
He didn't say anything, so I hung up the phone.
