The convenient Bride novel Chapter 299

Payton walked out of the elevator and went to the door. He was about to press the pin to open the door.

 

With a scream, a girl lowered her head and rushed out of the door opposite his, bumping into him suddenly.

 

Feeling there was someone else, the girl hurriedly looked up at him. When she saw his face, she cried out in surprise, “It's you!"

 

It was the first time Payton had ever killed a cockroach in his life.

 

He put the dead cockroach in a napkin, took it to the bathroom and threw it into the toilet.

 

As soon as he walked out, the girl took out a bottle of water from the kitchen.

 

When she saw him, she anxiously asked, "How is the cockroach? Did you kill it?"

 

Payton nodded, “Yes.”

 

The girl heaved a sigh of relief, "You are my savior.

 

Then, she handed the water to him and said, "Thank you.”

 

Payton took it and teased her, “Are you so afraid of cockroaches?"

 

The girl rolled her eyes at him, "Every girl is afraid of cockroaches, okay?"

 

Payton raised his eyebrows, "Really? Looks like I'm ignorant.”

 

The girl smiled and changed the topic, “I didn't expect that you are my neighbor.’

 

Payton smiled, "Me too."

 

She was the girl he had met in the bar that day, who was with Juliet.

 

Her name was Tracy.

 

"Does your girlfriend live here?" Tracy asked, as if she was just checking. In fact, she was sounding out.

 

"No. She lives with her family.’ Payton looked around. According to the simple and fresh decoration in her house, she was plain. There weren't many ornaments in her apartment.

 

Noticing his gaze, Tracy smiled faintly and said, as if she had known his thoughts, “I'm a minimalist. So, I don't want too many ornaments in my house.’'

 

Payton looked at her clean face, without makeup, and smiled, "Actually..."

 

He weighed his words, "Your house looks great.’

 

Tracy laughed out loud, "Don't lie to me.”

 

Then, she pointed to the sofa in the living room. "Let's go sit down and talk. It's strange to stand here.”

 

Payton politely rejected her, "No need. I have to go back. It's late as well."

 

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the door.

 

Tracy followed him. She thanked him again at the door and saw him entered his house. She stared at his closed door for a long time before going back.

 

The next day, in the noisy canteen, Rosiley and Juliet sat in the corner.

 

Rosiley ate slowly and occasionally looked up at Juliet, who was sitting opposite her.

 

Juliet was no longer as enthusiastic and vigorous as before. She was listless, seeming distracted.

 

Rosiley put down her chopsticks and placed her hand on the table. She frowned slightly and asked, “Juliet, how were things going yesterday?"

 

Juliet looked up at her and bit her lips. She asked rather than answering Rosiley, “Rosiley, I'm going crazy.’

 

“What do you mean?”

 

Juliet hesitated for a moment before she sighed and said slowly, "I feel like I'm going crazy. I know clearly that Payton doesn't like me, but I can't give him up. What should I do?"

 

Rosiley couldn't help but laugh as she looked at Juliet's annoyed expression, "How do you know that he doesn't like you?"

 

Juliet curled her lips, “It's obvious. Does he like me?"

 

Juliet thought the answer was negative.
