Chapter 252 Chapter 252 "Ms. Kay, please sign for your flowers," the delivery guy said, extending a bouquet toward me.
White wild roses! These were my favorite. Only someone who really knewwould get that.
My first thought was Jace.
He sendswhite wild roses on my birthday every year. And for other occasions, just plain white roses.
But today wasn't my birthday. Why was he sendingflowers out of the blue? Still a bit stunned, I took the flowers from the delivery guy, who looked like he was ready to move on to his next ston "Who sent them? Your boyfriend?" Ron popped up behind me, as usual, always in the right place at the wrong time.
I was about to deny it when a small card slipped out from between the flowers.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRon, ever the helpful one, bent down, scooped it up, and handed it to me. There were just two lines written on it: Hope you have a great day. From B.
A shiver ran down my spine as Brad's annoying smirk popped into my head.
I never would've guessed it was him! But how did he know I like white wild roses? Then it hit me. Tanya. She must've told him.
A wave of anger bubbled up. Seriously? So, Tanya's so worried I might go after Jace that she set Brad oninstead? Does she not realize how much worse that'd be if I actually went for it? "Who sent these?" Ron buzzed aroundlike a nosy bee.
I knew he wasn't interested inlike that, but he was definitely way too invested in my personal life.
Feeling mischievous, I smirked. "Oh, just syoung hottie." "Huh?" Ron blinked, totally thrown off.
Ignoring his slack-jawed look, I breezed back into the office.
"Ms. Kay, are those from your boyfriend? He's got good taste. They're gorgeous." "Ms. Kay, you're something else-white wild roses? Classy!" My coworkers were piling on the comments. I just smiled and shrugged. "If I were basic, would I be working with all of you?" My smooth response flattered them just enough to quiet things down, and they all went back to their desks, satisfied.
Back in my office, I tossed the bouquet onto the couch and picked up the card again, glancing at the 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 252 number Brad had so conveniently left.
Did he really wantto call and chew him out? What a shameless guy.
Leaving his number like he's practically begging for it.
If he wanted to look for a scolding, he was not getting it from me.
I tossed the card in the trash, turned on my computer, and was about to dive into work when my phone buzzed.
It was Hayden: [Busy?] As concise as ever.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI leaned back in my chair and typed back: [Not too bad.] Hayden: [What are you doing right now?] Me: [Texting you.] Hayden: [...] Me: [Is there something you need?] Hayden: [No] I paused, unsure what to say next.
He said he didn't need anything but still messagedknew what that meant. I'd been in relationships before. It meant he was thinking about me.
Sigh.
The sweet, confusing scent of love.
Hayden: [Anything happened at work today?]
I was about to say no, but then I X glanced at the roses on the couch. I snapped a quick pic and sent it: [ Pretty, right?] Hayden: [Where did these cfrom?]
