The Queen They Buried

Chapter 602

Bowen held Aubree’s hand all the way to the car, not saying a single word.

“I really had no idea he’d be the one to come up and give me flowers,” Aubree finally spoke up, breaking the silence.

“If it wasn’t for the school, I definitely wouldn’t have accepted them.” Once she found out Oliver had bought the flowers himself, Aubree tossed them right away.

Bowen didn’t say a word the whole way, and Aubree started to think he was mad.

Even though she didn’t think she’d really done anything wrong, she figured guys were like that. Sometimes you just have to say a few nice things to calm them down.

She looked up at him, and just then, Bowen turned his head too. His voice was low and a little sulky. “I’m not mad.”

He wrapped his arms around her, acting all clingy, and buried his face in her neck. “But you need to coax me.”

Aubree couldn’t help but laugh. She never realized until now that Bowen could be this childish.

But really, she hadn’t done anything wrong this time. Still, he was reluctantly putting up with it, so maybe he did feel a bit wronged.

“How would you like me to do that?” Aubree asked.

“Like this?” she said, tilting her head up and planting a quick kiss on his

cheek.
