Chapter 253

After sending that message, I added another, "Sent by a young and attractive man."

I watched the message go through and waited for Brandon's reply. The seconds turned into minutes, but there was still no response.

"Hmm?"

"What's going on?"

"Is he angry?"

"Ignoring me?"

My fingers hovered over the keyboard, ready to send him a follow-up message. But after typing a line, I reconsidered and deleted it.

If he got upset over someone sending me flowers, then he wasn't any different from Chris. Back in school, I was often pursued. Even at work, some people tried pursuing me despite not understanding my relationship with Chris.

Every time, Chris would get angry. He wasn't only scolding the person but also blaming me for attracting attention.

To avoid upsetting him, I often sacrificed my feelings. I even deliberately distanced myself from any male friends who might cause misunderstandings. I didn't want to feel that way again.

So, I tossed my phone aside and focused on work. About ten minutes later, my phone rang. It was a call from Brandon. I frowned and answered.
