Chapter 81

Chapter 81.

Astel’s POV,

She struggled and screamed, but my hand muffled the sound. I dragged her to a quiet corner, and released her from my grip..

“What is the meaning of this?” she demanded, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.

I…. I am sorry, I wanted to speak to you,” I began to apologize, but she cut me off.

“I’m not interested,” she said, trying to walk away. But I moved to block her path.

“Please, Nelly,” I said, my voice pleading. “Just let me explain.”

“What exactly are you trying to explain, Astel?” she said, her voice rising in anger.

“I know you’re angry with me, and if I were in your position, I’d feel the same way. But please, just hear me out.”

She fixed me with a piercing gaze, her eyes searching mine. Then, she glanced down at her watch.

“You have less than ten minutes,” she said. “Make use of them wisely.”

I swallowed hard, trying to gather my thoughts. What could I say to make her understand? I took the bouquet of flowers from my pocket and held it out to her.

“I brought these for you,” I said, my voice shaking. She looked at the flowers, her expression unreadable. For a moment, she hesitated, but then she took the bouquet, her fingers brushing against mine. I also held out the box of cupcakes. “They’re your favorite flavors,” I said. She shook her head.

“They’re not my favorites anymore,” she said. I felt my heart sink, but I refused
