"Be careful in the next two days. Don't touch any water, or the wound will get infected."
After putting on the band-aid, Brandon looked into my eyes and warned me.
I looked at him in a daze. I was still immersed in the tenderness he had just shown me, and I was a little dazed.
Seeing that I was silent and looking at him in a daze, Brandon frowned and looked at me unhappily. "Hollie, I'm talking to you. Have you lost your voice?"
I came to my senses and looked at Brandon's handsome face. I looked away in a panic and stopped looking at him. I lowered my head and continued to cut the vegetables.
Brandon glanced at me and returned to the living room to continue waiting for his food. About half an hour later, I brought the prepared food to the table. He was already sitting waiting at the table.
I cooked a simple meal with soup as an appetizer. I wasn't a professional cook, and I only knew how to cook simple homecooked dishes. I didn't know why Brandon liked to come here for dinner since my food was not even good.
His housekeeper must have prepared better meals for him at his villa.
The two of us faced each other and ate our dinner in silence. I was thinking about what my mother had told me over the phone today. I hesitated if I should ask Brandon.
"Did you give my parents 100,000 dollars?"
In the end, I asked the question. If I didn't ask, this matter would always be buried in my heart and make me very uncomfortable.
Anyway, I'd made Brandon angry more than once, what's one more time?
"You found out so soon?"
Hearing my question, he was not surprised at all. He was still eating his dinner gracefully, as if what I said had nothing to do with him.
"So it's really you. Why did you send money to my parents?"
I put down my fork, frowned, and asked Brandon.
"Didn't you say that you were tired of supporting your family alone that day? Now that you are my woman, you don't have to be so tired. I can give your family 100,000 dollars a month."
Brandon said these words with an air of superiority.
I understood what he meant. It turned out that he suddenly sent 100,000 dollars to my parents because of what I said to him that night. Did he think that I said those words to ask him for money?
After I came to my senses, I became angry. What did Brandon take me as? Did he think that I said what I said for money?
"Brandon, I think you misunderstood something. I want to find someone to rely on, not to let him bear the burden of my family. I want someone to lend me a shoulder when I'm tired and helpless."
