Chapter 264: Come Home

After meeting  Alicia,Neil too left the office.In his anger and frustration,he had over worked and now his work was over.Holding the basket of blueberries in his hand,he opened the door to his home.Going into the kitchen he placed the basket on the counter and prepared some tea.Opening the basket,he took out a berry and popped it into his mouth.A rare genuine smile graced his face.Even though he could not reciprocate Mi Rae's feelings,he was flattered and appreciated her gumption.

The smile then slid off his face.He needed to stop her or she would be even more hurt.He thought more because he understood her feelings and knew his negative answer would inevitably hurt her.
