“Don’t move. Just a while more!” Valda Theller suddenly said as her hand movements seemed to go faster. Brian’s eyes glimmered slightly, but he did not move as she wished and continued maintaining the posture earlier.
However, his eyes were looking at Valda Theller sitting opposite him.
Valda Theller’s face was no longer awkward and embarrassed before but absorbed. Even those round eyes showed an indescribable seriousness.
It was the first time a woman had looked at Brian like that.
They were so pure as if they contained no other ideas, ambition, or desire, let alone infatuation. It was as if she was only looking at him.
B Gifts When she finally drew the last stroke, she let out a long sigh of relief. Her expression returned to normal. “Done.”
“Is dating me boring?” he asked.
“Huh?” She froze. Then, she seemed to realize something and hurriedly said, “No, I didn’t draw you because it was boring. The image of you reading just now was so beautiful that I couldn’t help… uhh… drawing it.”
With that said, her expression changed suddenly. “By the way, do you mind if I draw you like this?”
“There’s nothing to mind. I promised you we would date and you could draw me,” he said.
Valda Theller breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.
After the two left the comic cafe, Brian sent Valda Theller back to her apartment.
“Next time, I’ll pick you up on the weekend,” said Brian.
“Can you come to my studio next time? There’s no one at my studio during the weekends. I want you to model for me,” said Valda Theller. Though she had drawn him today, she did not find it enough.
Brian said, “Okay, we’ll do it at your studio. Do you have any dress code I need to comply with to model for you?”
“Oh, no, you can wear whatever you want,” she said quickly.
“Alright.” Brian drove away. Valda Theller turned around to walk into her apartment. However, she had only taken a few steps when a hand suddenly grabbed her arm.
She was shocked and turned her head to see Raymond Bowman, who had walked over to her at some point and was holding her arm tightly with one hand.
“Raymond Bowman, what are you doing?” She struggled to break her away from his fingers.
However, his five fingers grabbed her like steel bars. “Is the man who just sent you back really your boyfriend?”
He came to her place to look for her today, but she was not at home. Therefore, he waited in his car in the apartment compound, only to find that the man he had seen in the restaurant before this sending her back.
“I think I introduced him to you last time. That man is my boyfriend,” said Valda Theller.
“Impossible!” Raymond Bowman said. Valda Theller sneered. “How is it impossible? Does a boring. woman like me doesn’t deserve a boyfriend?”
Raymond Bowman’s face turned pale. Boring… was what he had used to describe her.
With everyone watching, he said, “Valda Theller, I’ve never met such a boring woman like you. I hope you’ll stop bugging me, I’ve told you many times that I don’t love you. I’ll only hate you more if you keep following me around and disgusting me.”
“You still hate me for what I did to you, don’t you?” Raymond Bowman asked as his lips trembled slightly.
Valda Theller looked at the person in front of her coldly. “I did hate you back then. But I don’t hate you anymore. After all these years, there’s no point in hating someone irrelevant.”
“Irrelevant?” Her words made him paler.
“What else could it be? Am I supposed to think of you as important?” she asked as if she was amused.
A Gifts He stiffened. “I know I did a terrible thing back then, I’ve been wanting to apologize to you all these years.”
Valda Theller said indifferently, “Okay, apologize.”
He froze as if he was a little stunned that she was this straightforward.
“Didn’t you say you want to apologize? Now that I’m here, aren’t you going to apologize?” she asked.
Raymond Bowman took a deep breath, and his thin lips. parted gently as he spat out two words, “I’m sorry.”
“Okay, I heard you. Can you let go now?” Valda Theller asked without any expression on her face.
“Do you forgive me?” Raymond Bowman’s eyes contained a rare look of eagerness.
“I’ve only acknowledged your apology. It doesn’t mean I forgive you. I’m no saint. I’m not used to forgiving someone who used to hurt me, especially a man who hurt me to please another woman.”
“Valda, I…”
Valda Theller said, “Don’t call me Valda! Raymond Bowman, whatever happened between us is over to me. I don’t hate you, but it doesn’t mean that I’ll forgive you for what you did. I only hope that we’ll never meet again or that we’ll treat each other like strangers when we meet.”
“Strangers…” Raymond Bowman laughed bitterly. “If I said I could start over with you-”
However, she interrupted him before he could finish, “There’s no starting over. I want nothing more to do with you. Raymond Bowman, I have no feelings for you anymore. And to tell you the truth, I only think it’s some other bet you’ve made at my expense when you talk about starting over!”
There was a pain in his eyes. “I won’t hurt you again. I’ve been regretting what happened back then.”
However, there was still a calm expression on her face as if whatever he said did not matter to her anymore.
Raymond Bowman could not help saying, “What about your so-called boyfriend? Do you think he’s serious about dating you? That man looks rich and is good-looking. A man like him should have plenty of women around him. Maybe he’s just fooling around with you.”
Valda Theller said confidently, “He’s serious about me! Whether a person is sincere or not has nothing to do with their looks and fortune but character. I trust my boyfriend’s character, and I love him!”
Of course, the last part was a lie.
Raymond Bowman’s pupils shrank suddenly. His five fingers.
that clenched Valda Theller’s arm slowly loosened. “You… love him?”
Valda Theller said, “Yes, I love him very much. Raymond Bowman, I’ve heard your apology. I hope you’ll leave me alone!”
With that said, she turned around and walked into her apartment block.
Raymond Bowman stared blankly at the figure until it disappeared from his sight. He gently lowered his eyes and looked down at the hand that had grabbed her arm earlier.
Her warmth seemed to remain in his palm, but she was already so cold to him.
She had once been warm to him, telling him, “Raymond Bowman, I like you very much. I think this is love. I think I’ll always love you. Even if I’ve become an old woman, I will still love you this much.” However, he had destroyed her feelings for him!
B Gifts He thought she was only a tool. After all, she was not the one he had fallen in love with at the time. He was only using her to complete a bet with another woman.
However, when he saw her taunted at school and even humiliated in public, he felt a painful pang in his heart.
A person who had once been cheerful in front of him had become tremblingly fearful of her surroundings.
He knew she was being bullied and became the laughing stock of the school.
He caused all this. It happened to her because he used her. However, he still did not explain anything at school even when he saw her so miserable.
He hurried abroad as an exchange student half a year later as if to escape all this.
However, the scenes of her being bullied by others still appeared in his mind from time to time even after going abroad. She had imperceptibly held a place in his heart.
He would wonder how she was doing and whether she was alright.
It never occurred to him that the woman he did not care about but only wanted to use could not be erased from his mind.
Even when other women were friendly to him, deliberately approached him, and made intimate gestures, her face would He could not get rid of her!

Therefore, he found out about her whereabouts, secretly investigated her current situation, and asked Keith Sharp to take him on the blind date.
He only wanted to take this opportunity to reconnect with her, but he did not expect her to have a boyfriend.
