True Love Waits novel Chapter 1455

Gifford was a punctual man. He said he would be back in ten minutes, and within eight minutes, he was ringing Chantel's room doorbell.

Chantel had just had her hair dried as she walked to the door on her phone with Edward, a man from Violet Eagles. After making sure that it was Gifford standing outside, she opened the door to let him in. "I can't go tomorrow afternoon either. I'm afraid I won't be able to make it there this time. Let's talk again soon if anything happens... Okay," she said into her phone.

Closing the door behind him, Gifford took off his uniform jacket and hung it on the clothes rack nearby.

Once she ended the call, she kept holding her phone nervously while looking at the man now loosening his tie. "Well... did you have dinner?"

"No." It was getting dark and he had just come from M Country.

So she suggested, "How about we order room service?" She didn't eat anything either and was planning to eat rice noodles alone after taking a shower.

Putting his tie aside, Gifford looked at her with an unreadable expression.

"Do you think I'm here for dinner?" he asked. 'No, I think you're here to eat me, ' she thought.

"So, come here!" Gifford crooked his finger at her.

With a flip of her long hair, Chantel put her phone on the table and walked towards him.

She thought he would say something else, but he didn't. He just held her in his arms and kissed her on the lips.

After a while, he said, "Take a shower with me." He had been out the whole day and was afraid she wouldn't like to be with him if he stank.

After all, she smelled so good. Despite having just had a shower, she complied and followed him into the bathroom.

After a long bath, Gifford carried Chantel back to the bedroom in his arms. Her long hair, which she had previously dried while he was out, was completely soaked again.

Putting her on the bed, Gifford told her, "Lie down. I'll dry your hair."

He had dried her hair twice while she was in the Li family house, both after a late-night shower. At the time, she had been so sleepy that she could barely open her eyes, so he had to do it since her hair was still wet.

Now the situation didn't look much different either. With a nod, Chantel hung her long hair on the bedside and closed her eyes as she enjoyed him drying her hair.

After he was done, she had already fallen asleep but ended up woken up by him.

When she opened her eyes, she looked at him in a daze. Noticing how sleepy she really was, Gifford didn't have the heart to ask her to go out with him. Instead, he sat down beside her and offered, "Why don't you go back to sleep, and I'll buy you some food?"

She shook her head and answered in a hoarse voice, "No, thanks. I'll get up."

However, as Gifford waited for her, she fell asleep all over again.

Half an hour later, she suddenly sat on the bed and looked around the dim room. She found Gifford on the sofa, staring at her.

Looking into his eyes, Chantel apologized immediately, "I'm sorry. I'll get up now!"

"Take your time." It didn't get past Gifford how exhausted she seemed. In fact, he was curious to know what she had done outside every day that got her so tired.

After she wrapped herself tightly in her overcoat, Chantel put on a hat, sunglasses and a mask. When she was ready, she gritted her teeth and suppressed the nervousness in her heart before taking Gifford's arm.

Out of the corner of his eye, Gifford looked at the small hand on him and smiled. 'Good! I like her holding my arm.'

Once they left the hotel, she asked, "I want to eat rice noodles. Will you join me?"

"Okay!" Actually, it didn't matter what he was going to eat.

In order to please her, Gifford drove to a place where she could have rice noodles, and he was fine with that.
