Chapter 168: PLEASE FORGIVE ME, DOVE
You are not someone special Dove, it is just him who is a gentleman. Stop over thinking your place. Dove thought.
She sighed and looked away.
Dante on the other hand, turned towards Dove and a wide grin came to settle on his face, and he went over to her, who had her head lowered down, looking at the files.
"Dove," he called for her gently. And Dove who had her head casted downwards bit her lips and closed her eyes. Stop being so gentle with me- she wanted to say out loud.
Seeing that she did not reply, Dante lowered his head towards her again, and called out for her again, "Dove, listen to me. I have something to tell you."
"Hm, what is it, Dante?" Dove replied, her voice straight, but low. And she did not raise her head yet, still ’skimming’ through the papers. But Dante did not seem to mind it, he continued saying, "I brought ice creams for you. Eat it. Grandpa once told me that you loved ice creams more than anything in the world. Haha, how sweet."
Dove face turned sour, and she pouted. Grandpa did not need to say him that! It was true that ice creams were her weakness, after all.
She was already going through a crisis with her emotions and feelings. And now him bringing her favourite thing for her only added to her crisis even more.
And without thinking much, she said out, "Thank you for it, Dante. But I am busy right now. Please keep it in the freezer for now. I will have it later." And hearing her, a frown settled on Dante’s face, and his smile flattered. And the next second, without any warning, he closed the folder in front of her shut. Dove frowned immediately, and he looked up at him with a tsk, and the space between her eyebrows furrowed, "Dante, what’s this?"
