Chapter 83
Looking into his deep eyes, Ava felt a jolt of nerves, her hand trembling. Like a cup too full, her coffer spilled onto Calebis pants and documents.
Caleb’s mouth twitched visibly
“I’m sorry, Caleb. I didn’t mean to do that. I’ll wipe it for you right now
In a frenzy, Ava grabbed some napkins and started wiping the stains off Caleb’s pants.
Caleb frowned and brushed off Ava’s hands. He was ready to blow up but stopped short when he saw her eyes britning with tears.
“Stop. I’ll go in and change my clothes. Wait outside. I’ll drive you home later.”
Fed up with the clammy sensation, Caleb had Evelynn in the lounge as soon as he stopped talking,
Soon, the sound of a shower came from the lounge. Ava took a deep breath, rushed to the desk, and sifted through the files, all while keeping an eye on the lounge.
Suddenly, the phone rang, which startled her. She found it was Caleb’s phone ringing
Checking that Caleb in the shower hadn’t heard, she picked up the call.
After a while, Caleb came out. He sat at his desk and continued his unfinished work.
She quietly returned to the sofa and sat down, daring not to come closer to Caleb.
Past 8:00 p.m., well beyond the rush, Caleb lifted his gaze from his documents and caught sight of Ava dozing on the sofa, stirring a hint of sympathy in him.
“Avy?”
Caleb put the suit on his arm and patted her.
“Let’s go. I’ll send you home,” said Caleb.
Ava came to her senses in an instant and followed Caleb in a hurry.
In the car.
Sitting in the passenger seat, she looked at the night scene of Glavia and asked, “Can I not go home? Can I live in your house?”
She turned her head and looked at Caleb hopefully.
“Cut it out. The paparazzi aren’t staking out your home anymore
Caleb refused without hesitation.
Jasmine and Evelyn were still at his villa; there was no way he could just bring Ava home like that.
“But I’m freaked out staying alone. What if someone breaks in at night? Can I just stay at your home for this one night? I’II get the keys to my new spot from my agent tomorrow, okay?”
With the tears in her eyes. Caleb softened hus heart. After all, he was the one who caused this situation.
