Melody looked up at Everett.She was smiling, but her eyes were cold.
Everett also looked at her.
“If you think like this, that’s it.”
Melody clenched the apple tightly and smiled faintly.
“Everett, you really like to joke with me.’
After Brayden left, Olivia took the ‘Secrets of Green Embroidery’ and opened it.
This morning, she asked Brayden to bring the book over.
She wanted to return it to the Old Master when he arrived.
But he refused to accept it no matter what happened.
He said there was no reason for him to take back what he had given out and he told her to take
good care of it.
Olivia could understand his thought.
It was not because of Bill, but because he really wanted her to develop the green embroidery well.

She would not let the Old Master down.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Olivia paused, turned over the book, and put it aside.
She took the phone from the bedside table.
It was an unfamiliar number.
Brayden came back in less than two hours with a bunch of gardenias in his hands.
As soon as he came in, the fragrance of the flowers came to her nose.
“You like gardenias.It’s the right season for gardenias to bloom.I bought a bunch of them.Smell
them.Do they smell good?”
Brayden held the bouquet in front of her with a smile in his eyes.
Olivia smelled it and looked up.
“It smells good” Brayden smiled.
“I bought a vase, and I’ll buy a bunch of flowers every morning and put them in it”
As he said, he took out the glass vase and went to the bathroom.
Olivia listened to the sound of water inside and did not speak.
Brayden soon came out.
He trimmed the gardenia, put it in the vase and set it on the bedside table.
“Does it look good?”
He looked at her with gentle eyes.Olivia looked at the snow-white gardenia and nodded.
“Yes.” Brayden smiled again.
“You’re more beautiful.” Olivia looked at him.
“Brayden, I want to say something.”
She looked serious, and Brayden became serious.
“Say it.”
“Do you remember what Everett said at the hotel that day?”
Brayden’s face darkened.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes.”
How could he not remember? He still remembered what happened that day and what he had said.
“Then could you stop ruining your career and even your promising future because of me?”
Brayden frowned and looked at her for a while, “Why did you say this all of a sudden?”
He didn’t think it usual that she suddenly thought of this question.
“Because I’m scared”
“I’m afraid that we’re all under Everett’s control, especially the person I care about would get hurt
because of me, do you understand?”
This was the scariest part about Everett.
He would always find your weakest spot to attack you and make you unable to rise up again.
Brayden lowered his eyes and crossed his hands against his lips.
After a long time, he looked up.
“I promise you, but I also hope you promise me one thing.”
“Say it”
“Let’s get the marriage certificate in advance.”
