Chapter 130
Wasn’t it just being seen by him?
“Do you care about him that much? Are you afraid he’ll be angry after seeing it?” Ferris’s voice was low and hoarse, tinged with bitterness.
I didn’t answer him.
He didn’t understand why I was crying at all.
In the past, he never cared when I shed tears, but now, the moment I cried, he became so flustered.
“Stop crying.
After saying this, he lowered his head and gently kissed my forehead, nose bridge, cheeks…
I trembled violently, reaching out to push him away, but couldn’t budge him at all.
Just then, there was suddenly a knock at the door.
“Miss, your clothes have arrived,” the waiter said from outside.
Ferris immediately stopped his actions, his breathing still somewhat ragged near my ear.
1 quickly wiped the tears from my face and glared at him fiercely.
He stepped back, letting me go to the door.
I only opened a crack, took the clothes, then took a deep breath, trying to calm my emotions.
“Ferris, please go out. I need to change clothes.”
He stood there hesitating for a moment, seeming worried that I might cry again, but still went out.
He stood at the restroom door, lit a cigarette, but couldn’t suppress the irritation in his heart.
I looked down at the clothes–it was a light–colored summer top.

Perhaps feeling guilty, he didn’t stop me.
I composed myself and returned to the dining table, where I saw Adrian had already placed a jacket on my chair.
“You get cold easily, so I had the waiter buy a jacket too,” he said.
“Thank you.”
I put on the jacket, covering my neck.
Throughout the entire meal, Adrian never mentioned the marks on my body, only kept telling me about recent events, trying to make me laugh.
His thoughtfulness warmed me, but at the same time, made me feel even more embarrassed.
I ate the food in my bowl absent–mindedly, tasting nothing.
“In the future, if anything happens, you must tell me. Don’t bear it alone,” he said gently.
“Mm, okay.”
I agreed, but I knew I would never really rely on him.
After the meal, he insisted on taking me home.
After I got out of the car, he watched me enter the building before leaving.
In the car, his phone rang. It was his good friend Benjamin Harding.
“How did it go? Did she agree to go with you?”
Adrian looked out the window and said in a low voice: “No.”
“How could she not agree? You’re not usually the hesitant type.”
Indeed, Adrian was always decisive and straightforward in his actions.
“It’s complicated. I’m worried she hasn’t completely let go of Ferris and doesn’t want to choose me.”
Benjamin laughed on the other end: “Who could resist your charm?“.

But Adrian didn’t sound the least bit at ease. He let out a quiet sigh.
