True Love Waits

Chapter 1317 A Storm

Erica tried to open her eyes to check if Matthew had actually sneaked up on the bed to sleep beside her, but she was too sleepy. When she woke up at dawn, she saw that Matthew wasn't there. She scanned the room and thought that he left her alone to sleep.

The moment she got out of bed, Erica saw a piece of paper on the bedside table. She picked it up and realized it was Matthew's handwriting. She felt like she heard his voice when she read the note. "I'll be on a business trip for three days. I wanted to take you with me, but you kept ignoring me. I have to go now. I'll be back soon, but remember to miss me while I'm gone."

'He's on a business trip? How come it's so sudden?

Remember to miss him? Ha! No. I'm not going to miss him,' she thought to herself.

After breakfast, she got into the car and left the manor. When the car approached the manor entrance, her phone rang. She didn't recognize the number. "Hello. Who's this?"

Erica heard a man's voice on the other end of the line. "Hello, is this Ms. Li? I'm from a florist's. I am close to Pearl Villa District. Can you come out and sign for the flowers?" 'Huh? Flowers? Could they be from Matthew? Huh, probably not. A man like him doesn't know how to be romantic! He's never sent me flowers before.

But maybe he did that to apologize to me.' Erica felt confused.

She asked, "Who sent them?" "Um, sorry, Ms. Li.

I don't know who sent them to you. Would you please sign for them first? I'm in a bit of a hurry to deliver the next order. I'll wait for you to arrive," the man said anxiously. Erica looked out of the window and said, "I'll be there in about three minutes. Wait for a bit, please!"

The manor was only a few minutes away from the Pearl Villa District. She was already on her way and would arrive in just a bit.

"Okay, thank you! Bye!"

When she arrived at the Pearl Villa District, the first thing she saw was a large bunch of red roses. The moment she got out of the car, the air smelled of roses.

The man in a blue uniform brought her the flowers. "Erica Li, right?"

She was amazed to see this big bunch of flowers. "Yes, that's me!" she nodded.
