Chapter 1780


    Keegan checked the time and replied, “Perhaps another day.


    I have something to do today.’ Instantly, Jaylene looked disappointed.


    While she was still feeling down, Keegan unexpectedly inquired, “Do you… like flowers?”


    Jaylene paused, and her eyes immediately lit up. “I love them.”


    “Would you like toe with me to see some?” Keegan asked once more.


    Looking into his eyes, Jaylene felt her heart racing.


    “Y-Yes, of course…”


    “Let’s go,” Keegan said, leading the way toward the elevators.

    Jaylene tightened her grip, trying to calm herself down, and followed him.


    Soon, Aldor drove them to the city’srgest flower shop.


    Upon entering, the myriad scents of the flowers greeted them, prompting Jaylene to sneeze


    involuntarily.


    The truth was, she didn’t actually like flowers.


    Having asthma, she often felt ufortable with the potent floral scents.


    Despite her job in the fragrance industry, she couldn’t endure prolonged periods in theb due to her


    health condition.


    She regted her breathing, trying to limate to the overwhelming aroma.


    Approaching them, a shop assistant inquired about their preferences.


    Surveying the shop, Keegan queried, “Which flowers are usually given to girls?”


    The shop assistant smiled, “Roses are the most popr choice for girlfriends.”


    Keegan turned to Jaylene, “What do you think about roses?”


    Jaylene’s cheeks flushed slightly. “Roses… they’re alright.”


    However, Keegan suddenly had a thought. ‘Roses are so typical.’ He pressed his lips together and


    remarked, “Get me one stem of every flower here, except roses.”


    Jaylene was surprised. Then, she heard Keegan continue, “I find roses a bit overdone.”


    Feeling somewhat uneasy, Jaylene murmured softly, “But roses usually symbolize love.”


    Keegan paused, then added, “I’ll take two roses as well.”


    Jaylene’s heart fluttered.


    She hadn’t anticipated Keegan would heed herment and purchase two additional roses simply


    because she mentioned their association with love.


    ncing at Keegan, who appeared indifferent while observing the shop assistant wrap the flowers,


    Jaylene pondered, ‘Is he…’ After a while, the bouquet was finally prepared. The shop assistant asked


    Keegan, “Would you like to include a card?”


    “No, thank you,” Keegan declined with a wave of his hand.


    As the shop assistant handed over the bouquet, when Jaylene moved to take it, Keegan turned to


    Aldor and remarked, “Aren’t you just going to watch?”


    Aldor took the bouquet and ced it in the car.


    A sense of warmth enveloped Jaylene.


    Once they were in the car, Jaylene asked, ‘Keegan, where are you headed next?”


    “I’m taking you home,” Keegan responded.


    ‘Didn’t he mention having other ns? Yet he’s still taking me back…’ She cast her eyes downward


    and spoke softly,” Keegan, if you have something else to attend to, you don’t have to take me back.


    You shouldn’t waste your time.”


    Keegan responded casually, “It’s alright.”


    Jaylene’s heart fluttered once more.


    Shortly after, the car arrived at the Saun residence. Hearing the car’s engine, Ste descended the


    stairs and reached the door, where she found Keegan standing with a bouquet of flowers, apanied


    by Jaylene.
