Chapter 239
I needed to come up with a reason… The phone in my hand vibrated twice. It was a message from Lisa. It was a GIF of a woman in a sexy nightgown striking a seductive pose after a bath.
Lisa had added a note.
“You could give it a try.”
I sent back a facepalm emoji. Although I scolded Lisa internally for being inappropriate, I thought her suggestion was worth trying. I just needed to come up with a good reason to show Brandon this side of me.
I went to the bathroom to shower while brainstorming reasons.
Using Eden’s message as a reason might not work. If I mentioned it, Brandon would surely stop me. Asking him to fix the water pipes wouldn’t work either since the pipes were fine, and I couldn’t just break them.
Saying I was hungry and asking him to cook seemed like a good idea.
With this reason in mind, I hastened my shower. Then, I put on the sexy nightgown I rarely wore.
Speaking of this nightgown, I bought it when Chris and I got engaged because we were planning to live together. I never expected that Chris wouldn’t see it, and now Brandon would.
I looked at the black silk nightgown, which showcased my curvaceous figure in stunning detail. The black color, with its touch of mystery, contrasted sharply with my fair skin. It created a striking visual impact.
It wasn’t just my vanity. Even I found it enough to make one’s mouth go dry and leave people…
“Knock, knock.”
There was a knock on the door. At this hour, it couldn’t be anyone else but Brandon. He had arrived right on time. It was better than me trying to find a reason to approach him. But I wondered what he wanted at this late
four Condit be that he also wanted to
My checks were burning. I raised a hand to pat them and glanced at my reflection in the mirror. As I walked toward the door, I asked, “Who’s there?”
M’s me. I made you a bowl of oatmeal Brandon’s voice still sounded deep and pleasant even though it was muffled by the door.
I swallowed nervously. I looked at myself once more, took a deep breath, and pulled the straps of my nightgown slightly lower before opening the door.
I was actually getting hungry,” I said as I opened the door. I quickly found a reason to avoid embarrassment.
Brandón stood outside, holding the catmeal. His gaze fell on me, and I clearly saw his Adam’s apple move. The effect was quite impressive.
In my mind, four words floated by, but I pretended not to understand. I
reached out to him and playfully praised him, “You’re really on point with the boyfriend duties.”
