PopularNovelChristine had been on the hunt all day.
Finally, she found a place that ticked all her boxes.
If only it wouldn't rain, then it would be absolutely perfect.
"Oh, my back..."
Exhausted, she collapsed onto the couch as soon as she got home, too tired to move or think about doing
anything.
But after a while, she forced herself up to remove her makeup.
While she was putting on a face mask, her phone on the coffee table wouldn't stop buzzing.
Picking it up, she saw the caller ID and let out a scoff.
Nope, not answering that.
And straight to the block list it went.
Meanwhile, Dailey was left hanging.
He had waited all day, and Christine hadn't sent even a single message his way.
Did she really not care about him anymore?
Was she really ready to reduce him to less than a stranger in her life?
Rubbing his aching forehead, he sent her a message.
"Tomorrow, 4 PM, at the Hillside Café. We need to talk."
Christine never got the message.
Blocking someone meant no notifications, no hints.

Dailey didn't check to see if she'd received it. He assumed she had.
The wind picked up in the evening, sneaking through the slightly ajar balcony door and causing the curtains to
flutter.
Moonlight illuminated the entwined figures on the bed.
| pushed against Gregory, "We agreed, just this once."
Bare-chested, Gregory's body radiated heat, making my cheeks flush. His deep brown eyes were filled with a
hidden depth, clearly not satisfied.
But | wanted to try on my dress early in the morning, to sort any issues in good time.
If we let this drag on, | wouldn't sleep till the early hours.
And then, waking up early would be a struggle.
"I'm just thinking of your health. Studies show, at a certain age, too much of this can be harmful."
Gregory smirked, his voice husky and enticing.
"Did | do something to make you think I'm past my prime?"
That was a trap, | could tell.
"It'swho's getting on, | can't overdo it. Shouldn't you, as my boyfriend, be understanding?"
Gregory chuckled, a sound that resonated from deep within, "And shouldn't you, as my girlfriend, helpout?"
That conversation went nowhere.
| opened my mouth to respond but couldn't find the words.
Gregory leaned in closer, his voice persuasive and dizzying.
"Baby, I've been patient, haven't I? Now, can't you be a little patient with me?"
Somehow, | found myself nodding.
When I finally closed my eyes in the early morning, | was filled with regret.
But | was too drained to even be angry.
And the next day, as expected, | didn't wake up until noon.
Thank goodness | had prepared milk for the baby in advance; otherwise, he'd have gone hungry.
"I'll ask Mr. Abdul for a tonic," | mumbled to myself.

the subject, "I'm running late. I've

Seeing my embarrassment, my mom didn't press further.
"Go ahead, but don't be late. The baby needs fresh milk."
"I won't be long, | promise!"
| assured her, then quickly made my escape.
