Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 205

Girls tend to want to look nice for the boys they like. When I did that, I was certain that I had developed feelings for Brandon.

I washed my hands and walked out. Brandon immediately came over to help me.

I feigned an attitude and ducked. "I'm fine."

He didn't force it. He followed me to the dining table. Besides the steak and the vegetables that he said he'd make, there was also a plate of mashed potatoes and a plate of cut-up fruit. The food looked really appetizing.

"Your sister must be really lucky, Brandon," I said, offering him my highest praise.

Brandon said nothing. I remembered that his sister had heart disease. Suddenly, an idea flashed into my mind. "Where do you live? I mean, where does your sister live?"

He looked at me, still saying nothing.

I asked again, smiling, "Why are you hiding it even from me? Are you afraid that I'll hurt her?"

"Palria. It's a small city south of Amaty. Brandon's answer was detailed."
