Silent Rejection의 모든 챕터: 챕터 11 - 챕터 20

Reid loves watching her enjoy the food that Gordon cooked. She didn’t say much but after, she wanted to tell him a lot of things about Gordon’s cooking. She’s utterly speechless mostly but she had pointed out everything that Gordon used. Even the small ingredient that would make it taste good. Garlic or onions. She could taste it all. “Alright, I'll call someone to clean it up.” “Hey, don’t bother.” She stood. “I will clean it up.” “But you were just sick two hours ago.” “Boss, I have hands and I can stand. I can walk. It means that I can clean it all.” “Fine.” He sighed. “I have to go to a meeting.” “Sure.” She nodded. “Also, you can go downstairs to shop for clothes.” “But I don’t need~~” “Just go. You need proper clothes for special events. I already asked them to assist you. Also, it’s paid by the company.” He said and patted her arm as he left quickly. It wasn’t paid by the company. He lied again. But it was only white lies. He already had them charged on his account. H

Three hours of sleeping was enough for her. She stretched her arms and legs as she removed her eye mask and earplugs. She rubbed her eyes and looked around to see that others were sleeping or watching a movie. She peeked at her boss whowas sleeping peacefully. She looked away as she didn't want to stare at his handsome face for long and got caught. Or else, she might fall. She can’t fall in love with anyone. Not to her colleague. Not to her boss. She slipped off and went to the toilet. The attendant stood to assist her but she smiled as she just entered. Weird. Then, as soon as she got out, the attendant handed her wet wipes as she thanked her. “You must be hungry. We have almost everything. Anything you like?” She thought for a while. “Hmm,” she shook her head. “Not for now. But I’ll be fine.” She smiled at her as the attendant nodded. “Please call us if you need anything.” “Okay. Thank you.” She headed back to her seat and realized that there were familiar faces in the first

She ran her fingers through her hair as a big guy approached them with an umbrella in his hand since it was sprinkling from the sky and led them directly to their expensive-looking big van. It didn’t have a company logo at all. He sat next to her and placed a blanket over her thigh. She thanked him as she went on to check their hotel room. “Everything is perfect. Rooms are ready for check-in.” She said and called the hotel to confirm their late dinner. She quickly reached for a tissue and upon smelling some kind of car freshener, she sneezed. “I’m sorry. Please excuse me.” “Bless you,” Echo said as he sneezed out well with his hands on his nose and mouth. “Bless me.” She handed him the box of tissues as she sprayed her hand with the alcohol and the air. “Hannah, how about your dress for the events?” Graham asked. “Quinn is asking. You should coordinate with her.” “I will, sir. Checking in with her.” She said as Reid sighed and turned his head at Graham, glaring at him. “By the w

That night she joked about them being together. He somehow comforted her. He was down as well and he was so stupid not to grab that opportunity. Now, here she is. She doesn’t even want to be touched at all. “You know,” She smiled but it cracked. “That night, it felt like my throat was closing and my chest was in so much pain… seeing him with another and not to the one whom he’s fated with. I would gladly accept it if he said it with words…” She shook her head. “I had known him for a long, but even back then, he was just a dream that I was unable toreach. We were together… we kissed… but I was the other girl. After my years of crushing him, I knew he was just a fantasy, but I just wished that I wasn’t crushed like that.” She exhaled. “Painful words were thrown at me, and I should get used to it. But hearing from him… like I was a toy?” Hannah now remembered that day just after her birthday.He stared at those eyes, it became cloudy. Her eyes were supposed to be siren… a little sharp b

They left the venue for a while as she needed to breathe. As soon as they reached outside, he pulled her closer, without realizing that he saw her ex-mate. She looked up at him as he smiled down. “Let’s have some matcha.” “Sure… but I would like some fruit tea for now. Are you going to treat me?” She asked as he checked for his wallet. He sighed and nodded. “Oh, wait. I need to sell my body since I don’t have my wallet.” He said as she sighed. “Yes, that’ll do.” They laughed along as he placed his arm over her shoulders. They went to the bubble tea station to get their drinks. He removed his coat as she held it and while the cashier was waiting for their payment, he was about to remove his shirt. “Wait, you are damn serious?” She asked and frowned. “Yeah, I don’t have money.” She reached her head. “Damn,” She pushed him away as she rummaged through her purse. “I was about to strip to pay for our fruit teas.” He said as the cashier flushed bright red. “I’m sorry.” She apolog
