Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 253

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?"

"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.

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.
