Chapter 204 "I didn't," he quickly said.
I smiled. "Why would you cknocking if you didn't?" Brandon moved the chopped vegetables to a plate. "The old lady downstairs told me. She said my girlfriend was home." I was speechless. I sipped my tea and simply admired him as he worked. Just then, Brandon turned to look at me. "What are you so suspicious of?" he asked.
I gave a faint smile. "I think... that you've been following me." "What?" His forehead creased.
"I was joking. I know you don't have that much ton your hands." With that, I returned to the living room, sipping my tea.

I dreamed that the bald man had capturedbecause Arthur had commanded him to kill me. The bald man began thrusting a knife into me, and I shook my head violently.
"Mae!" "Mae, wake up!" I was woken up. My eyes shot open, and I saw Brandon staring atanxiously as his hands steadied my head. "Did you have a nightmare?" he asked in a low voice- I was still in shock from the dream. My breaths were shallow. At the thought of the bald man, I grabbed Brandon's hands and said, "The bald man who attacked you the other day is working for Arthur, I saw him Brandon frowned even deeper. "How did you know?" "I... I saw him." I tightened my grip on his hands, then slowly released it.
"These are my personal affairs, Mae. Don't get yourself involved, okay?" he said sternly.
I wanted to tell him that I wasn't involving myself in his affairs. I had merely bumped into the bald man in my pursuit of the truth behind my father's death.
But before I could speak, Brandon continued, "Arthur is a really dangerous person. You mustn't do anything to him. Got it?" Brandon's expression leftno choice but to nod solemnly. The words I wanted to say were stuck in my throat. He grazed my forehead with his calloused fingers, wiping off the sweat that had broken out during my nightmare. "Go take a sip of water. The food is ready." He got up to leave, but I pulled him back. "You have to be careful, Brandon." Of course I knew that Arthur was dangerous.
He was a huge client in the company. People gossiped about him, speculating how he had managed to build his empire within a few years. Chapter 204 Brandon stared at my hand, his gaze softening. "Okay.
My lips moved slightly. He bent over, adjusting my position on the couch. Then, he patted my head.
His movements were soft and gentle, quelling all the fear that I had felt in my dream.

He went into the kitchen and brought out two plates of food sipped the water on the table and stood up. In an instant, I felt light-headed.
After yesterday's sickness, today's investigative work, and this dream, I felt like something inhad been hollowed out. Brandon looked back, sensing my unease. "Are you dizzy?" I wanted to deny it, but he had already cover to propup and leadto the washroom.
After sendingin, he walked out and said, "I'm right here. Call out toif you need help.
He probably thought that I needed to relieve myself, but I didn't. I stared at myself in front of the sink, realizing that my face had turned ashen. I looked terrible. My hair was all tousled, too. I was a mess. I looked nothing like how beautiful I usually was. Brandon had seenin this state. He would probably turn his nose up at me.
At that thought, I immediately tidied up my hair and massaged my face.
