“Mark, I couldn’t attend your birthday party, so I bought a small gift for you. I hope you like it.”
Elaine quickly takes out a beautifully wrapped gift from her bag and passes it to Mark.
Mark’s face brightens up and he reaches out his hand to take the gift, “Elaine, thank you so much. You even think of me when you’re out on business trip...”
“Of course, I think of you every day!” Elaine blurts out unexpectedly.
After finishing her words, she stuns herself.
Oh damn, my mouth. Why does my mouth never know when to shut up?
She is embarrassed! And this is so humiliating!
Hazel bursts out laughing and immediately lowers her head to drink her coffee.
Mark’s blushes slightly, and his face is full of joy.
After chatting casually for half an hour, the three of them walk out of the coffee shop.
Elaine is a simple-minded person; she accidentally steps on a small stone.
“Ouch!” Her body trembles a little as she grunts in pain.
“Be careful.” Mark holds her arm gently and she is startled.
“Are you fine, Elaine? You didn’t sprain your ankle, right?
Elaine wiggles her foot and says with a smile, “Heh Heh, I’m fine. I didn’t sprain my ankle. Thank you, Mark.”
Mark smiles gently, “I’m glad you’re fine. Be careful next time when you walk.”
Hazel purposely annoys Elaine, “Elaine is an idiot who has no sense of direction and doesn’t know how to look at the road.”
Elaine rolls her eyes, wanting to talk back. But she doesn’t want to look fierce in front of Mark.
Mark hesitates for a moment.
Shall he let go of Elaine, or not?
In the end, he decides to hold Elaine’s little hand. He turns his face to the other side as he is embarrassed to look at Elaine, and they continue walking.
Elaine blinks her big eyes and looks at it.
Is this really happening?
Mark is holding her hand?
Wow, that’s shocking!
Elaine looks at Hazel as she can’t believe this is happening. Hazel purses her mouth in a self-satisfied smirk and nods.
Mark is tense, so he remains silent while holding her hand. It takes ten minutes just to walk a few hundred meters.
Finally, he reluctantly let go of Elaine’s hand and says, “Elaine, Hazel, I’ll be waiting for you both at Irvine University.”
Hazel nods her head and grins, “Okay, okay. You’ll have to treat us when we go to Irvine University.”
“Well, sure.” Mark nods gently and can’t help looking at Elaine.
Elaine lowers her head and her face turns red. She is so excited that Mark has been holding her hand all the way.
After that, Elaine directly rushes into her house before Hazel has the chance to speak.
“Oh, come on. This woman gets this excited just because someone holds her hand? Really, that’s too scary.”
Hazel shakes her head and walks into the house. The more she thinks of it, the funnier she feels.
Looking at Mark’s attitude today... it is obvious that he likes Elaine too.
This fool, Elaine, has been having a crush on Mark since forever, yet she doesn’t even have the courage to confess.
Hazel follows Elaine inside and sees her running around the house like a mouse.
“Mark held my hand! Mark held my hand! Mark held my hand!”
Elaine giggles happily. She raises her hand up and stares at it.
Hazel shakes her head and sighs, “Look at how crazy you are! It seems you’ve been having a crush on Mark to the point where you’re obsessed now. Poor thing.”
