Chapitre 99: That voice again

Chapter - 99

"Huh...?" Margaret was taken aback by Alex's words. She was hoping for an embarrassed laugh and a couple of half-baked excuses. But all she got was a straightforward rejection.

"What... What do you mean by it won't work anymore, and let's just put a full stop to everything?" Margaret asked, looking straight into Alex's eyes. Margaret felt that she had made it very clear by her actions all along and especially the other day that she was not just playing with him. She was romantically interested in him. So why was he outright rejecting her? And what did those gifts she got for the last few days mean?

Alex, when saw Margaret looking at him, expecting an explanation, averted his eyes from her and looked away. He got off his bike and stood in front of her.
