He was indeed good to her, extraordinarily good, yet she never got close to his heart.
He never shared his innermost thoughts with her, nor did he seek her company on his own initiative.
His kindness felt like it was shrouded in a thin veil, and she could never see his true feelings.
Thinking of this, Viola Harris felt waves of panic in her heart.
She always knew that Brandan Hyde felt more guilt towards her than affection.
But she thought that as long as she stayed by Brandan Hyde's side for a long time, he would eventually fall in love with her.
But, does he really love her?
Viola's heart skipped a beat as a chill spread from the depths of her heart. She bit her lip slightly, furrowing her brows tightly.
Though she had always been confident, at this moment, she suddenly couldn't answer.

Rubbing her sore shoulders, she made her way towards her bedroom.
