"Hollie, do you want to go or not? If you don't go, I will cut ties with you!"
She had been trying her best to convince me to go, but I was still unrelenting, so she began to resort to threats.
I sighed helplessly. I really couldn't do anything about it. I knew that she was threatening me on purpose, but I still compromised.
"Fine, I'll go."
I put on my clothes weakly. I would dress up nicely if this was a few days ago, but now I was really not interested at all. I didn't want to waste my time because I knew that the blind date wouldn't work out.
We arrived at the restaurant that the blind date had been arranged in. Evie was afraid that I would change my mind on the way, so she insisted on coming with me.
I looked at my blind date sitting opposite me. He was fair and looked clean and gentle, and had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose. He looked much better than those on my previous dates, at least in terms of appearance.
"What do you think? You're not disappointed, right? I'm telling you, you'll definitely like him."
Evie nudged my shoulder and whispered into my ear.
I rolled my eyes at her and said nothing.
The man before me could be described as good-looking, though.
"Miss Hunter, nice to meet you. My name is Dylan Moss. I'm a lawyer. Nice to meet you."
The man opposite me held out a hand to me with a faint smile on his face.
Out of courtesy, I also reached out and shook hands with him. "My name is Hollie Hunter. I work in an advertising company. I'm also very happy to meet you."
I smiled faintly at him. Although I had no feelings for him, I was satisfied with his profession and appearance.
After all, I didn't expect to find true love anymore. The man in front of me seems to be more suitable, at least much better than those in the past.
After having a meal together and getting to know each other better, I went home with Evie.
As soon as I entered the house, before I could sit down, Evie held my hand and kept asking.
"Hollie, what do you think of Dylan today? He is very good, isn't he? And he is also a lawyer, so he is a good match for you."
"He's okay, at least in terms of appearance."
Although I was in a hurry to find a boyfriend to marry, I was not very interested in dating. I just wanted to get married as soon as possible because I didn't want my parents to worry about me anymore.
"Do you mean that you like this one? I'll contact him another day, and then the two of you can start dating and getting to know each other better."
Hearing what I said, Evie became a little excited and began to arrange our next dates for me.
I glanced at her indifferently and said nothing more. I went straight back to my room to rest.
Although I had found a suitable boyfriend, I had no feelings for him. I merely didn't dislike him. That didn't mean I like him.
In the next two days, I almost forgot about this matter. I went to work and got off work as usual, and during this time, Brandon did not contact me either.
One day, I was lying in bed absently with my cell phone in my hand. I was hesitating if I should call Brandon. He hadn't called me for such a long time. Did he really forget about me?
