Chapter 687 She Held Back Tears
Jennifer sounded resigned as if she were telling her own story.
Gloria was silent, not knowing what to say.
Jennifer smiled, “Alright, I’m not talking to you. I’ll let you know how Bryson is doing later.”
“Thank you.”
“Not at all.”
They said no more and hung up.
Gloria had mixed feelings and didn’t know how to deal with them.
She took her laptop, drew a deep breath, and got on with her work.
About half an hour later, Jennifer arrived at Bryson’s house.
Melissa was very welcoming when she saw Jennifer. She talked with her for a while and sent Jennifer off to Bryson.
After all, Bryson’s condition was not good.
Melissa was really at her wit’s end.
Top trending hashtags popped up one after another on Twitter. Bryson dared not to call Gloria again.
When Bryson knew there was a visitor, he thought it was Gloria who came to explain herself.
But unexpectedly…
Bryson looked up expectantly and saw… Jennifer.
Bryson looked away disappointedly and said, “There you are.”
Jennifer’s eyes fell on Bryson. He looked thinner and paler than usual, and even his eyes were not loving as before.
Bryson never showed much affection for her, but the light that had shone in his eyes seemed to dim.
And… there was stubble on his chin. He looked gaunt.
Jennifer fell silent.
At this moment, Jennifer could tell that Bryson was deluding himself.
With his head down, Bryson didn’t want to talk to Jennifer. They were friends. He didn’t want to give her the cold shoulder. A tumult of feelings inside him fought for supremacy, which made him feel bad.
Jennifer knew what was going on, but she couldn’t breathe a word to Bryson. She could only watch him suffer in a fantasy world.
Bryson felt bad, and it made Jennifer’s heart ache to see him like this…
She couldn’t bear to see the man she loved suffer.
She was trying so hard to fight back tears.
But before she could continue thinking about this, Bryson stared up at her as if he had just remembered something.
Jennifer’s heart trembled.
The look in his eyes…
