One Meet By Chance novel Chapter 28

Teresa, who was sent home ahead of time, quietly sat in the rocking chair and enjoyed the warm afternoon that belongs to her alone.

Maybe it was too easy and comfortable. Teresa fell asleep in the chair. But the furrowed brows seemed to show that she was not as peaceful as she looked.

In the dream, the surrounding environment was still the sun like blood, and the person was still scarred Jerome. But this time, he just looked at her without saying anything.

"Do you forget how much I have done for you? Leave here and don't come back,"

He said in a cold tone and then disappeared in her dream. Teresa woke up abruptly. Looking at the surrounding environment and the warm sunshine, she felt extremely cold in her heart.

He was indeed blaming her. Did he pretend not to know her the other day?

Then Teresa picked up her phone and dialed the familiar number. This time, she called it with all her courage.

As soon as she heard the sound of "beep", she immediately hung up the phone. It turned out that the number could still be connected after so long a time.

Teresa suddenly regretted hanging up the phone so decisively just now. Anyway, her number was just a strange number on Jerome's phone. Moreover, it had been five years and the owner of the phone was probably changed.

But what would she say if Jerome did answer the phone? 'I should have hung up the phone. At least, it wouldn't be awkward, ' Teresa thought in her heart.

Teresa suddenly felt that she was so small and cowardly. In this world, she could only change herself. What would happen to her in the end? Would she never have a chance to go back to that warm home?

It was past seven when Enrique got home from work. He heard from the housekeeper that Teresa had been in his study all the time, and though she had been called out for dinner at six o'clock, she had insisted on waiting until he came back.

It wasn't for any other reason. It's just that Teresa thought she was too lonely to eat alone. She would rather wait for Enrique to come back, because at least there was someone arguing with her.

Enrique took off his suit and went to the study to see what Teresa was doing. He tiptoed to open the door of the study room, only to find that Teresa had fallen asleep at the table!

Enrique felt helpless. Originally he was afraid to disturb her reading, but now it seemed that he should not disturb her sleep!

When he let his guard down, he ignored a thick book that Teresa accidentally knocked off. Therefore, he kicked the book and hit the desk which Teresa leaned over.

When Teresa woke up, she looked at the man with a confused and unhappy face, but she didn't expect that her sleeping position was so uncomfortable that she would twist her neck.

"Oh, my neck!" Feeling that, Teresa could not help but scream painfully and her resentment for Enrique deepened.

"You little fool." Enrique shook his head and came forward to give her a massage.

The moment his hand touched her, Teresa shuddered as if she got an electric shock. All of a sudden, the scene he had whispered in her ear that morning came to her mind.

Her face turned pink again and she pushed Enrique's hand away.

"I can do it myself."

Enrique was in a good mood as he watched her look sheepish and shy. The idea of making fun of her came to his mind immediately.

"It's okay. You have waited for me for such a long time. I should have helped you to reduce your pain." He whispered in her ear again.

Teresa felt that her face was burning, so she guessed that her face must be very red.

She lowered her head, wishing to throw herself under the table. When Teresa inadvertently turned her head and found Enrique's laughter, she knew that she was being teased by him again.
