Chapter51: Sweet Lunch 2.0

“IS THERE A problem?” He glanced at me for a moment before speaking. “Dad asked me a favor.” He did not continue what he had to say because his jaws tightened first. “It’s okay, I understand.” I draw a frugal smile on what I said after I caressed his arm. Again he sighed heavily. It took a few more minutes before we reached our house. I stayed in the car for a few more minutes because I didn’t want to end the night like this. I looked down at the ring I was wearing. I even slightly caressed it and once again marveled at its quality and beauty. My heart turned a sunburned red. I never thought I would wear it a second time. “It looks more beautiful when you wear it,” Lawrence muttered. I was overwhelmed, my heart pounding even more as I watched him close the gap between us. “Thanks for the ride. I-I better go,” I said in a stammer. He just nodded, but I noticed his dark and scorching stares at me. I felt my knees tremble a bit. I feel like he absorbs my energy even when he does nothing.
