Almost a Wife Never His Love novel Chapter 56

Chapter 22

After a mild case of food poisoning, Arabella stayed in the hospital for two days and then was discharged.

On the day I returned to the company, my colleagues from the department sent various condolences.

Among the various types of condolences, a cluster of sunflowers stood out.

She found herself transported back to every graduation season.

When she was young, she was not very confident in talking to Zackary.

He only dared to blend in with the crowd of fangirls every time he graduated, secretly giving her a sunflower.

Sunflower, a silent love, an unspoken love.

Arabella treated this as a little secret between her and Zackary.

Did he notice earlier?

These sunflowers were eventually placed on the balcony of the company.

But Arabella didn’t realize that this was just the beginning.

From that day on, every morning, there would be a fresh bunch of sunflowers on her desk.

Colleagues teased her one after another that she had blossomed with peach blossoms.

Arabella half-heartedly arranged it and placed it on the large balcony as usual.

Until the balcony was filled to the brim.

Arabella spent half a day moving the pot’s position.

We cannot continue like this.

She found Zackary, who was in the middle of negotiating with someone.

Seeing her outside the glass door, Zackary’s pace doubled.

Ten minutes later, Arabella sat in front of his desk.

“Don’t send flowers anymore.”

The anticipation faded from Zackary’s face.

I didn’t look at Lucas the whole time, but this time he took the initiative to explain, “Don’t misunderstand, it’s just that the

previous neighborhood was unsafe, so I found her a new place. I didn’t expect Auntie to live here too. Why did you buy so many things?”

Arabella sighed, “I knew why you were giving, but please don’t give anymore.”

“The past is already gone; I won’t look back.”

“Next time, I would throw it in the trash can.”

There was not much room for Zackary to play.

Zackary dared not refuse.

He was afraid that Arabella would run away again without saying a word, just like before.

There were many ways to get close to her without giving flowers.

“This new project team was led by Mr. Jefferson himself.”

Once the work arrangements were settled, Zackary became the supervisor of the project team.

The team leader was indeed Arabella.

It’s just work, and this project was quite critical, so it was normal for Zackary to personally follow it.

Arabella didn’t think much.

But in the coffee room, I happened to hear the employees’ cricket.

“Could it be that Mr. Jefferson liked Ms. Reid?”

“I saw Ms. Reid receiving cards every day in the flowers last time, and they seemed to be written by Mr. Jefferson.”

“No way, Mr. Jefferson…”

“Mr. Jefferson was pursuing Arabella.”

A pleasant male voice interrupted them.

Arabella trembled all over as she caught a glimpse of Zackary’s profile through the folding screen.

Is he crazy?

The employees of the cricket company left in a hurry after a brief loss of speech.

Turning a corner, Arabella was encountered again. In an instant, she froze stiffly and quickly fled the scene.

Zackary turned around and locked eyes with Arabella.

Arabella greeted dryly, “Mr. Jefferson.”

In the moment I turned around, I heard Zackary say, “I wasn’t joking.”

She pretended not to hear.

At work, Arabella tried to avoid meeting Zackary alone as much as possible.

But what had to come came.

Site inspection at the construction site.

Only Zackary and Arabella had experience, and they were forced to go together.

Fortunately, the construction site had been abandoned for a long time, and there were too many places that needed to be negotiated. Along the way, the two of them were only able to focus on discussing work matters.

As soon as I arrived at the destination, I immediately rushed to the construction site.

It was getting dark, and only the basement was left.

The two of them had just descended into the basement when the lighting suddenly went out.
