If I really wanted money, I could have asked him for money when I had sex with him the first time, but I didn't
I didn't want to fight with him today. I just wanted to talk. Even though he was oppressive, he wasn't a heartless person.
Brandon looked me up and down with his eyes full of inquiry. He did not say a word, and his deep eyes were full of emotions. I didn't know what he would do next.
"If you want to be my girlfriend, then forget it. I can give you anything, but not this one. My future wife would never be a good-for-nothing woman like you. Hollie Hunter, you should be grateful for what you have!"
In his eyes, I was a good-for-nothing woman. Then why was he bothering a good-for-nothing woman like me?
There were so many excellent women around him. Any one of them was thousands of times better than me. Why was he holding on to me, then?
"I never wanted to be your girlfriend. I know there's a huge gap between us, don't worry."
The woman he would marry eventually would definitely be from a family with high societal status. A woman like me could never be his legal wife.
This was something I didn't even dare to imagine.
"I won't force you. I'll give you time to think about this."
What he said next made me feel relieved. Although Brandon was very overbearing, he was not unreasonable.
But I didn't really need any more time to think about it. I had already made up my mind to break up with him because I was worried that I might not be able to control my heart if this went on any longer.
This man was too excellent and dazzling. Not a lot of women could claim to not be attracted by him. I was just a normal woman, I liked handsome and successful men too, but this man was destined not to be mine. I could not let myself spiral anymore.
I wouldn't let myself suffer any more pain.
However, Brandon had just relaxed his position, so I couldn't say that out right now. If I might anger him again. I decided to wait a few more days before telling him of my decision.
After dinner, I thought that Brandon would stay here tonight. But this time, he unexpectedly just left after dinner without saying goodbye.
I was left alone in the house. I didn't like the feeling of loneliness.
In the evening, I took a shower and lay on the bed. Looking at the ceiling, I didn't feel sleepy at all. Brandon's handsome face kept appearing in my mind.
I thought that after breaking up with Vaughn, I would never love any man in my life. But I didn't expect that I would fall in love with Brandon so soon.
I always lied to myself and told myself that I hated Brandon, but I knew very well how I felt about him. Every night before I went to bed, his face would appear in front of me. At first, I thought that this was just because we had too much contact with each other. It was only later that I realised that I had fallen in love with him.
I knew that it would not end well. I was afraid that I would get hurt again, so I always protected myself like a hedgehog and did not let him into my heart.
My phone rang, pulling me back from my thoughts. When I came to my senses and saw that it was a call from Evie, I was a little excited.
After so many days, I didn't dare to call Evie, for fear that she would think that I was deliberately trying to ruin her relationship with Gabriel. I had contemplated calling her several times these days, but I never did it.
