Phoebe scowled. “Not planning yet? You’re over 30 now. Nyla is already on her second child, and you still don’t know when you’re getting married?”

After a while, she picked up her phone again and sent another message.
Valarie: (Brandon, how long do you plan on staying mad? At least give me a time frame. I don’t want to keep walling defea

This time, he didn’t reply at all.
The next morning, Valarie went straight to the Summer Group to find him
Sitting in his office, she got straight to the point “I came today to ask how you plan to resolve things between us Hell a merch should be enough time to cool down, don’t you think?”
“Valarie, I have a meeting soon. I only have ten minutes,” Brandon said
Valarie nodded “Alright, I’ll keep it brief I want to apologize again for what happened beone I did’t consider your feelings and I hope you can forgive the ”
She looked up at him, waiting for a response
