Chapter 216 My sudden hug caught Brandon off guard. His body stiffened at the contact. After a brief pause, I heard him ask in a low voice, "Are you pitying me?" "I feel sorry for you!" I corrected him.

Brandon didn't respond, nor did he hugback. It leftfeeling a little awkward, Just as I was about to pull away, I looked up and saw Chris standing nearby, Was he here today too? Somehow, Kara, that big mouth, hadn't mentioned it.

My hands tightened again just as they were about to release Brandon. He tried to pull away. I held his hand firmly. "Don't move." He stopped while I continued to hug him. "Are you working overttoday?" Brandon asked, "What?" I tip-toed and whispered close to his ears. "I miss your cooking." I heard the sound of his throat swallowing loudly in my ear, followed by a soft" "Okay." A shiver ran throughand I glanced in Chris' direction. I saw him clenching his fists, his expression darkening as he finally turned and walked away.

I released my grip on Brandon. Just as I was about to say something, Kara's voice rang out from a distance. "Hello, Mr. Gildon!" Brandon turned around to catch a glimpse of Chris before looking back at me. At that moment, I found, myself unable to meet his gaze.

I knew he likely thought my display of affection was probably just an act for Chris. The truth was, he wasn't entirely wrong. So, I couldn't explain, nor did I see the need to.

Kara crunning over while being slightly out of breath. "Mr. Howell, the lights in Zone C, Group seven to three, got damaged by the workers installing the amusement equipment." Accidents were the bane of construction work, yet they were never short in supply.

Brandon's expression didn't change as he said, "Let's go take a look." He started walking and seemingly forgot about me. I stood there while feeling uncertain about whether to follow or stay put.

Embarrassed by my childish behavior from before, I lowered my gaze and was about to let out a sigh when I heard Brandon's voice. "Are you coming?" I looked up and met his clear, dark eyes. There wasn't a hint of emotion in them, as if nothing had happened at all.

He was a master at controlling and concealing his emotions. Just moments ago, he had clearly been upset. However, within seconds, he was back to being unreadable.

"Maddie, you should csee this. There's a lot of damage and it's really frustrating." Kara grumbled as she beckonedover.

Even though I hadn't been around lately, I still cared about what was going on. I quickly followed them. I wasn't sure if I walked too fast or I tripped over something, but I suddenly stumbled forward. Brandon reached out to catchand I fell into his arms. His movement was so smooth it was like a Chapter 216 scene straight out of a .

Kara's eyes widened in surprise before she squinted her eyes and started to giggle.

In the past, I would have felt embarrassed and awkward, byt now I didn't. Instead, knaturally stepped away from Brandon's embrace and thanked him. "Thank you." 2/2

Brandon didn't reply and continued walking. Kara cover to grab my over arm and said with a mischievous voice, "Maddie, did you notice? Mr. Howell's ears are red."

I hadn't noticed. However, when she pointed it out, I glanced over and saw that she was right. Brandon was a tough guy. I didn't expect his ears to F get red. It was actually kind of adorable. "Maddie, Mr. Howell is so innocent. Just a little hug and his ears turned red. He's definitely a virgin," Kara whispered in my ear. "Ahem." I pushed her away. "Do you think about anything else besides this?" Ads by Pubfuture
