“Why are you so stubborn? If you agreed, that rich woman would buy you a house, and then you could walk away right after. It’s not like you’d lose anything.“She wouldn’t force you to do things you’re unwilling to do. It’s obvious that she’s genuinely sincere toward you.”Dwight felt that it was a pity. If he had encountered such a rich woman, it would have been fantastic. He would definitely agree and work hard to please her.Unfortunately, he was not handsome enough, so he never got such opportunities.Kaze had such a great chance but did not know how to cherish it. It was such a waste.“You’re overthinking it.”Kaze did not expect Dwight to say such things.He also did not expect Dwight to overhear the conversation. Originally, he thought that Dwight had left, but the latter came back to grab some documents.“I just think it’s a rare opportunity and you should seize it. Besides, her requests were not unreasonable. She didn’t ask you to sacrifice yourself. You just have to ha
“Why are you so weird? I’ve already made myself clear. Do you still not get it? Hurry up and leave.”Kaze gave Buffy zero hope; he did not want to waste any more time.Some things had to be spelled out clearly.Dwight came out holding a folder in his hand, proving that he was not lying earlier.He happened to hear the conversation just as he stepped out the door, making him feel a bit awkward.He knew he should not have shown up now, but this was his home. He should not be feeling so uneasy.Noticing that neither of them was speaking, he asked nervously, “Should I leave and let you two talk?”“No need. You can sit here.”Kaze saw no need to hide anything. Since he had made himself clear, the other party should understand his intentions.There was no point wasting any more time. Buffy should leave now.“Are you really going to be this heartless?”Buffy was unwilling to give up.She did not want to walk away just like that.“I already made myself clear. Isn’t it time you lef
Buffy thought she was special to Kaze. Otherwise, he would not have stepped in to save her.Just as the two were stuck in this deadlock, the door opened again.Dwight, who had just left, came back.“Sorry to interrupt. I forgot something,” he said as he hurried into his room.He did not feel it was appropriate to come out, worried he might ruin the atmosphere.Kaze felt a bit awkward.However, he also felt that some things needed to be said face-to-face. He should not give Buffy false hope or continue to bother Dwight.Kaze had been going through a lot lately. He had to set boundaries and stand his ground.“Do you really not feel anything for me? Then why did you help me last night?”Buffy could not help asking. Even if she had to give up, she needed a clear answer.She did not want to be led on.“You were completely drunk last night and didn’t even know where you were. You almost passed out at the entrance of a bar. A few men were dragging you inside.“I just happened to b
“Either give me Kaze’s contact, or don’t talk to me at all.”Buffy did not want to waste any more time, so she just quietly sipped her tea and stopped talking.If Dwight gave her Kaze’s contact information, she would not have to wait here.“What exactly did you do last night? Why can’t you even remember?” Dwight could not help but ask, perhaps not used to the silence.“None of your business.”Buffy was never the kind of girl with a good temper, and she definitely would not let herself be wronged.Since Dwight did not want to cooperate, she naturally would not show him any kindness.Dwight did not know what to say to someone like her, nor did he want to keep talking. The situation fell into a stalemate.Dwight actually wanted to contact Kaze, but he was afraid of disturbing the latter, so he did not dare to do it rashly.Kaze was probably about to leave for work at this time, but he had not come back yet. Dwight wondered if he would be back today.Just thinking about it gave h
The idea that she might have been violated last night sent Buffy on a downward spiral. However, now that she had learned that Kaze had taken her home and changed her out of her clothes, she was riding on a new high.She did not want to leave the apartment without seeing Kaze, but when she wanted to get Kaze’s number from Dwight, the idiot would not believe her. Buffy would never have put up with Dwight before, but she did not have a choice right now. “Well, you startled me, too. You popped out of nowhere and said the strangest things. Aren’t you taking things far?” Dwight was hung up on that point. “How would I know why I’m here? Just give me Kaze’s number. I’ll contact him, and we’ll clarify this in person.”Feeling pretty swell today, Buffy did not want to argue with Dwight. She hoped Dwight could be swift in handing over Kaze’s contact information. “You don’t know Mr. Lee. Why should I give his personal information? What if you’re enemies?” Dwight kept his guard up. Thou
“Do you know Kaze?” Dwight asked seriously. It would not make sense if Kaze and the woman were strangers. Maybe Kaze took the drunk woman home out of kindness, but it would explain things if they had some history. “I know him. Did he take me here?” The realization eased Buffy’s frustration. “That’s right. You were totally wasted last night, so Mr. Lee took you here. You reeked of booze. You were out of it, too.” Dwight recalled the state of the woman last night, and it was bad. “That reminds me. Where were you drinking last night? How did you end up like that? If Mr. Lee hadn’t brought you here, you could’ve been in grave danger,” Dwight uttered curiously. A beautiful woman like Buffy should never put herself in a vulnerable position. “It’s none of your business. That’s my concern.” Now that last night’s incident was coming together, Buffy felt relieved. She did not mind Kaze taking her to the apartment and changing her out of her clothes. In fact, it was good news. May
