Chapter 301


    Chapter 301 I’m Sorry


    Staring dazedly at her phone, she let it ring without picking up. The moment she saw the screen of her


    phone go off, panic coursed through her blood and it prompted her to quickly get to Ss’s number in her


    contact list. Just as she was about to call him back, she received a WhatsApp message. She clicked on


    it and found that it was from Ss: ‘I’ve prepared breakfast for you which I’ve left at your doorstep!”


    Shocked to see what he had written in his message, she felt a surge of warmth in her heart because he


    had actually made breakfast for her just when she thought he was angry at her and would never want to


    have anything to do with her anymore. As her body was reacting to the message faster than her brain,


    she jumped out of the bed and dashed toward the door where she found a stic carrier bag on the


    floor. However, the man was nowhere in sight. She thought he would pull off the same thing as what he


    had done a few days ago-he had hidden himself somewhere she couldn’t see and while she was trying


    to look for him, he secretly stood behind her so that as soon as she spun around, she found herself


    enveloped in his arms. Then, he edged closer and whispered next to her ears, “I’m trying out all possible


    ways just to catch a glimpse of you.” However, nothing of that sort took ce today. After scanning her


    surroundings for some time, she didn’t see any trace of him nor did she find herself in his embrace the


    moment she turned around. Nor did he express how much he missed her. Perhaps… he had lost the


    desire to meet herpletely Suddenly, she felt upset and a lump was growing in her throat. She


    wondered how harshly she actually treated him to make him shun her in this way. For some reason, she


    even felt a vague sense of loss. In fact, she was not supposed to feel that way because it was her who


    banned him from meeting her and it was her who refused to listen to any of his exnations. In the


    meantime, he didn’t even get the chance to start his trial period as her boyfriend. The effect of a habit


    could have on one’s life was remarkable. She found his presence a nuisance when she got to see him


    everyday but now that he was gone, she couldn’t get used to his absence. Standing rooted to the spot


    for quite some time, a sense of grievance overwhelmed her. She hated him for how he always madeN?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    concessions to gain advantage in the form of inducing her to reflect on her mistakes. As she had scarce


    experience in rtionships, she had no idea whether what she did was right.


    However, right now, she was sure that she missed him. So, she took out her phone and dialed his


    number… It only rang twice before it was picked up by him. “Cam-” “I’m sorry,” They said it at the same


    time before plunging into silence together. Yet, none of them hung up because they felt as though they


    could hear each other’s heartbeat through the phone. Atst, it was Ss who broke the silence by


    saying, “Cam, I’ve figured everything out. I know you aren’t interested in George or you wouldn’t have


    epted to go out with me. So, I think I shouldn’t have forced you to give me an answer and I was just


    confused before this.” Pursing her lips, Cam responded, “Everything I said to you yesterday was


    spoken in a fit of rage. Please give me more time to settle this.” “Okay. You should go back now, or else


    you will find it hard to exin when George finds out you’re outside.” Holding her phone, Cam had an


    inkling that Ss was somewhere nearby or he wouldn’t know where she was. “Where are you?” She


    started ncing around. For some reason, Ss answered her in a slightly miserable tone, “I’m in the


    security room watching the CCTV footage so that I can take a look at you safely!” Hearing what he said


    sent a mild pricking pain in her heart. Prior to this, she had never experienced the intense longing for


    someone but now, she found herself able to understand Ss all of a sudden because she too yearned


    to see him very much. It was the type of longing which could not be assuaged even after hearing his


    voice. Anyone would find it frustrating if they could not see someone who was just nearby. All of a


    sudden, she chuckled, “Ss, I’ll try to finish your grandfather’s suit as quickly as possible and by the


    time it’s ready, let’s bring it to him together!” With a note of pleasant surprise in his voice, Ss


    eximed, “Great!” Turning her head to face the CCTV camera, Cam beamed and said, “You should


    go back and get some sleep.” Her smile worked like a refreshing spring breeze that cheered Ss up in


    an instant. Obediently, he responded, “I will!”
