The Heart I Gave The Love I Lost

Chapter 47

Isabella must have been having a blast with Julia and the others over the weekend, because she hadn’t heard from Maggie at all. By Monday, Maggie went to work at Cole as usual.

It was almost time to get off work when Jessica called and invited her to dinner. After they finished eating, Maggie went to the bathroom.

That’s when she ran into Harry.

Maggie didn’t stop her steps and walked past him without acknowledging him.

Harry, however, stopped in his tracks and turned his head to watch her.

attention.

When Maggie came out of the bathroom, she saw that Harry hadn’t left, still standing at the spot where they had just crossed paths.

When he saw her come out, he turned his head toward her and asked, “Are you eating over

here?”

His tone made it seem like he had been waiting specifically for her.

“Yes,” she answered curtly. “Do you think I’m stalking you, Mr. Becker?”

Harry paused for a moment before replying, “That’s not what I meant.”

Maggie didn’t understand what he meant and didn’t want to understand either. Without another word, she turned and left, and Harry didn’t try to stop her.

After leaving the restaurant, Jessica wanted to buy a birthday gift for her mother, so Maggie went with her to a jewelry store.

Jessica was drawn to a set of jade necklaces. She had just chatted briefly with the store manager when someone’s voice suddenly came from the door: “Hello, I’m here to pick up
