Erine wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. She didn't want to make a fool of herself in front of Eddison.
A few seconds later, she had a bad feeling. He was looking at her indifferently, not giving her any response at all.
Staring into his eyes, her heart felt heavy. Did she get the wrong idea?
Did he not see her that way at all?
It was impossible. If he had no feelings for her, why didn't he lose his temper when she gave him a cup of coffee with sugar in it?
Also, he was sending her gifts in secret all this while, wasn't he?
He had sent her gifts since December, and even until the most recent Spring holidays.
She kept all the gifts at home and didn't even use them.
Was he too surprised at her confession that he couldn't come up with a response yet? That must be it!
However, a few seconds later, he spoke up.
He said, "Do you plan to continue liking me, or do you want to continue with this job?"
Wait... What?
