The Indifferent Ex-Husband Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate

Chapter 371

After scarfing down the seafood pasta, Brandon headed back to the house next door.

Sophia fired up her computer, clicked on her inbox, and saw the two emails she had scheduled earlier had both been delivered successfully.

The first one was to Brandon, the other to Don.

Staring at the email status page, Sophia fell silent for a moment before trying to recall the email she sent to Brandon, only to get a pop-up saying, "Recall failed, recipient has read the email."

Her hand paused on the mouse as she instinctively glanced at the firmly shut door, which Brandon had just closed not too long ago.

The email was her way of saying sorry for bailing without a word.

Sophia had no clue when Brandon checked his mail. He didn't let on that he'd seen it, not one bit.

After staring at those few words for a long while, Sophia tried to pull back the email sent to Don, only to get the same message: "Recall failed, recipient has read the email."

She couldn't help but shake her head and chuckle, closing the tab. About to log out of her inbox, she paused and couldn't resist clicking on the attachment - the design drawing she had asked Don to pass on to Renata.

Seeing the design again, Sophia felt a twinge of regret.

Maybe it was because it came from a burst of inspiration, but the piece was emotionally charged, and she really liked it. Too bad it wasn't appropriate to give it away anymore.

Sophia didn't know when Don had checked his email, but judging from Louis's hint and Renata's reaction earlier, he probably hadn't passed it on yet. To avoid any mix-ups, Sophia shot Don a quick email.

"Mr. Dempsey, you don't have to deliver the design for me. Thanks anyway."

Just as she hit "send" not even a minute later, her phone rang.

Don. Sophia glanced at her phone in wonder, and

"Mr. Dempsey?" She greeted.

Don said with an easy laugh, and then added apologetically, "Sorry, I've been swamped and didn't check my inbox. I just saw the email you sent last night
