Chapter 22
He wore a white shirt, beige trousers, with a white suit Jacket on his wrist.
He seemed to have just come out of a party.
But his well-groomed black hair seemed to have been disturbed by the wind since he was anxious and walked a bit fast, and a few strands fell on his forehead, blocking his left eye. However, he looked as handsome as ever and even more casual.
He looked at Olivia, his eyes brightening, but when he saw the person next to Olivia, he frowned.
Frank had never seen Brayden.
He was surprised to see him.
But before he could ask, Olivia said to him, "I'm home. You can go.'
Frank suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
"Olivia..."
He needed an explanation.
Although they had always been friends, she knew his feelings for her.
He was serious, very serious.
Olivia knew that the current situation would make him think too much, but this was not the time to explain to him so she just said, "I'll talk to you tomorrow:" Seeing her expression, Frank had to agree. Brayden saw Frank leave and walked over.
"Who is he?"
He had been in her life for two years, and after she left, he had followed her to H City until now.
But he had never seen Frank, and now they came back together. It was reasonable if he thought too much.
Brayden clenched his hands.
He was afraid of getting the answer he didn't want to hear.
"He's my boss and friend. We went to see a client tonight.I met a drunk man. He helped me and sent me back."
Olivia and Brayden were also friends, and she paid him back all the money she owed him a year ago.
She knew what he was thinking, but she couldn't drive him away.
"Are you okay?"
Brayden immediately grabbed her shoulder, looked up and down at her, and soon saw the hickey on her neck. His face darkened.
"Who did this?"
In two years, Brayden became more mature and responsible.
Olivia curled her fingers and smiled.
"I don't know.' Brayden looked at her smile. She was clearly afraid, but she pretended not to be afraid and relaxed.
He felt pity for her. He hugged Olivia and tightened his arms.
"I'm sorry.I should be there so that you wouldn't have encountered such a thing."
There was warmth in Olivia's eyes. Brayden really cared about her.
And in her heart, his two years by her side made him like one of her family.
He was like a brother to her.
"Have you eaten?"
He seemed tired, so he should have come directly from somewhere.
"No"
He wanted to say that he wanted to see her, so after his concert ended, he took the opportunity to return home. Without a moment's delay, he came here.
Just to see her sooner.
But he didn't dare to tell her.
He was afraid that if he said it, she would stay away from him.
Olivia opened the door and went in.
"Sit down for a while. I'll make something to eat."
"Okay."
Brayden put his suit Jacket on the sofa and watched her go into the kitchen and open the fridge to make dinner.
Olivia was very worried.
There were not many ingredients in the fridge, so she could only make a bowl of noodles. She turned around and looked over.
"Is noodles okay? There are no vegetables at home."
She was very busy these days and didn't have time to buy vegetables and stuff.
"Sure."
Brayden walked over.
"Do you need my help?"
He just wanted to be by her side and look at her more.
"No, sit down and rest for a while. It'll be quick"
She began to cook noodles.
Brayden went to get a glass of water and leaned against the kitchen door to look at her.
Two years had passed and she smiled more and was more confident, but he knew she had a scar on her heart that would never heal. Olivia cooked the noodles and Brayden ate them.
It was getting late.
Brayden took the suit and looked at her gently.
"Go to bed and have a good sleep"
"Okay, stay safe."
"I will"
Brayden left, and Olivia sat on the sofa.
After a while, she picked up her laptop and started working.
Only work could help her forget something.
Brayden went downstairs and looked up at the balcony of the fifth floor of the apartment building where there was an orchid plant.
After a while, he got in the car and left.
The next day, Olivia went to the company.
As soon as she arrived at the office, there was a person already.
