Chapter 1780

Keegan checked the time and replied, "Perhaps another day.

| have something to do today."

Instantly, Jaylene looked disappointed.

While she was still feeling down, Keegan unexpectedly inquired, "Do you... like flowers?"Jaylene paused, and her eyes immediately lit up. "| love them."

“Would you like to come with me to see some?" Keegan asked once more.

Looking into his eyes, Jaylene felt her heart racing.

"Y-Yes, of course..."

“Let's go," Keegan said, leading the way toward the elevators.

Jaylene tightened her grip, trying to calm herself down, and followed him.

Soon, Aldor drove them to the city's largest flower shop.

Upon entering, the myriad scents of the flowers greeted them, prompting Jaylene to sneeze involuntarily.The truth was, she didn't actually like flowers.

Having asthma, she often felt uncomfortable with the potent floral scents. Despite her job in the fragrance industry, she couldn'tendure prolonged periods in the lab due to her health condition.

She regulated her breathing, trying to acclimate to the overwhelming aroma.Approaching them, a shop assistant inquired about their preferences.

Surveying the shop, Keegan queried, "Which flowers are usually given to girls?"

The shop assistant smiled, "Roses are the most popular choice for girlfriends."

Keegan turned to Jaylene, "What do you think about roses?"

Jaylene's cheeks flushed slightly. "Roses... they're alright."

However, Keegan suddenly had a thought. ‘Roses are so typical."novelbin

He pressed his lips together and remarked, "Get me one stem of every flower here, except roses."Jaylene was surprised. Then, she heard Keegan continue, "I find roses a bit overdone."Feeling somewhat uneasy, Jaylene murmured softly, "But roses usually symbolize love."Keegan paused, then added, "I'll take two roses as well."

Jaylene's heart fluttered.

She hadn't anticipated Keegan would heed her comment and purchase two additional roses simply because she mentioned theirassociation with love.

Glancing at Keegan, who appeared indifferent while observing the shop assistant wrap the flowers, Jaylene pondered, ‘Is he...’

After a while, the bouquet was finally prepared. The shop assistant asked Keegan, "Would you like to include a card?""No, thank you," Keegan declined with a wave of his hand.

As the shop assistant handed over the bouquet, when Jaylene moved to take it, Keegan turned to Aldor and remarked, "Aren'tyou just going to watch?"

Aldor took the bouquet and placed it in the car.

Asense of warmth enveloped Jaylene.

Once they were in the car, Jaylene asked, 'Keegan, where are you headed next?""I'm taking you home," Keegan responded.

‘Didn't he mention having other plans? Yet he's still taking me back...' She cast her eyes downward and spoke softly," Keegan, ifyou have something else to attend to, you don't have to take me back. You shouldn't waste your time."

Keegan responded casually, "It's alright."Jaylene's heart fluttered once more.

Shortly after, the car arrived at the Saun residence. Hearing the car's engine, Stella descended the stairs and reached the door,where she found Keegan standing with a bouquet of flowers, accompanied by Jaylene.
