Chapter 248 Uncertainty
"Why are you here?"
Byron's lanky frame blocked out most of the light in the corridor, and his side profile made Cora's heart race. She furrowed her brows at the sight of him.
"Why can't I be here?" Byron looked at her, his figure towering over her. He even bent down slightly so that his handsome face was closer to hers.
Because he deliberately approached her, Cora could clearly smell the scent of aftershave combined with the aroma of tobacco that was exclusive to him.
That was the scent that she missed the most during the early days of their separation.
At that moment, the scent still could easily disrupt the rhythm of her heartbeat.
Afraid of being seen through, she quickly looked away.
Byron studied her profile but didn't move any closer. Instead, he took a step forward, intending to walk past her and enter her apartment.
Cora sensed his intention and quickly blocked his advance.
"What exactly are you up to by coming here?"
She was afraid that if he came into her life again, the wall that she had constructed with great difficulty would collapse instantly.
However, all Byron did was bring the things in his hands to her eye level, a look of indifference on his face. "I remember someone said that it would be a bummer not to have some crayfish when they're feeling down."
Cora was taken aback for a moment. She immediately recalled the times when she was scolded by Byron for chowing down on the crayfish takeaway she ordered.
Indeed, having led a pampered life, Byron felt that crayfish were unhygienic and tried to dissuade her from eating them.
Nonetheless, Cora retorted with various excuses at that time, claiming that having them would lift her mood, that they were the highlight of her boring days, or that they were a feast for her to celebrate certain occasions.
Never had she expected him to actually come to her door with crayfish to comfort her, who had just had a breakup.
