The Unwilling CEO’s Love Game

Chapter 45

Chapter 45

Right there, under the dazzling streetlights, Jocelyn was laughing her head off, looking drop-dead gorgeous, while the

guy behind her had this look in his eyes, like he was totally smitten.

They were the picture of a couple head over heels, with her making a fuss and him chuckling along.

Melvin had this thought bubble up: if life could always be this chill, it wouldn’t be half bad.

There was this girl selling flowers by the curb, and Jocelyn stopped in her tracks, looking back at Melvin.

He strolled over and was like, “What’s up?”

“Flowers.”

“You’re not even into that stuff.”

“How did you know?

“I’ve given them to you before.

That was you screwing up and saying sorry with flowers.”

Melvin gave her the eye. So what’s the occasion today?”

Jocelyn tilted her head up, lips pursed, Just because love.”

Jocelyn was eyeing those red roses in the jar, her heart doing somersaults.

The flower seller could totally see what Jocelyn was getting at and chimed in, “Sir, why not give your girlfriend one? One rose for a lifetime together.”

Jocelyn was all about forever and ever, but Melvin? Not so much.

Melvin picked out a rose that wasn’t all that lush and handed it to Jocelyn, then asked the seller, “How much?”

“Fifty cents.”

Melvin raised an eyebrow, That cheap?”

The girl flashed a smile, “Yeah, it’s off-season, so prices are lower.”

“I’ll take them all. Melvin was feeling generous. “How much for the lot?”

The seller counted, “Just nineteen left.”

“Wrap them up for me.” Melvin paid with a quick scan of his phone.
