Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 239

I needed to come up with a reason... The phone in my hand vibrated twice. It was a message from Lisa. It was a GIF of a woman in a sexy nightgown striking a seductive pose after a bath.

Lisa had added a note.

"You could give it a try."

I sent back a facepalm emoji. Although I scolded Lisa internally for being inappropriate, I thought her suggestion was worth trying. I just needed to come up with a good reason to show Brandon this side of me. I went to the bathroom to shower while brainstorming reasons.

Using Eden's message as a reason might not work. If I mentioned it, Brandon would surely stop me. Asking him to fix the water pipes wouldn't work either since the pipes were fine, and I couldn't just break them.

Saying I was hungry and asking him to cook seemed like a good idea.

With this reason in mind, I hastened my shower. Then, I put on the sexy nightgown I rarely wore.
