Carissa relaxed only after she drank a cup of hot water.
If Melvin didn’t show up today and Warren kept pestering her relentlessly, she really didn’t know what to do.
But didn’t Melvin love? How did he suddenly come back?
It seemed like he noticed her confusion, so Melvin took out his phone from his pocket.
“I don’t know which absent–minded person left their phone in my car.”
Looking at the familiar phone case, Carissa blushed and quickly reached out to take it.
“Thank you, Melvin ”
Not only did 1 thank him for returning my phone, but also for helping me tonight.
Melvin smiled and said, “You don’t have to be polite, just call me Melvin from now on. Do you have time tomorrow? Can I treat you to a meal?” Carissa hesitated for a moment, avoiding his intense gaze, and slowly spoke.
ow was my ex–boyfriend. Although I had already broken up with him, you also saw his attitude, so I probably won’t start a new
“Melvin, the man just now was my ex- relationship for now.
She had already made her words very clear.
Carissa was not a fool, she could see Melvin’s affection for her.
But she was still unable to respond to his feelings now,
Warren had always been a stubborn person, and she didn’t want to involve anyone else in this matter before they completely cut off contact
However, Melvin did not back down, he gently comforted Carissa
“Carie, you don’t have to worry. Even if you ultimately don’t accept my feelings, as a friend of mine and Emma’s, I should still protect your safety. So please don’t reject my help. Rest assured tonight, I’ll be here and won’t let him harm you.”
Carissa displayed a sincere smile.
“Thank you, Melvin.”
As the words fell, Melvin’s ears inexplicably tinged with a blush of red, and he hurriedly bid farewell and left.
Perhaps it was because of Melvin’s comfort, or perhaps it was because of his determined gaze.
She slept particularly soundly during this nap
The next morning, Carissa went downstairs as usual to get ready for work, but she ran into Melvin downstairs.
As she looked at his slightly disheveled hair and the same shirt he wore yesterday, a ridiculous thought rushed into her mind.
“Did you stay downstairs all night yesterday?”
Melvin nodded naturally.
“Well, I was afraid that your ex–boyfriend would come back to harass you, so I walted here for a while. In the end, I couldn’t be bothered to go back, so I just spent the night in the car. It works out perfectly because I can still drive you to work this morning”
Carissa pursed her lips and asked, “Why didn’t you go upstairs to sleep?
Melvin hesitated for a moment, a bit of embarrassment crossing his eyes, as he avoided her gaze.
You were the only one at home.”
He mumbled just one sentence, but Carissa understood what he meant.
Because Emma was on a business trip and didn’t come home yesterday, out of

Melvin glanced at his watch and voluntarily opened the passenger door for her. Chapter 19

“Did you have breakfast? It’s still early, I can take you to have a quick bite and drop you off at the office.”
Carissa had planned to grab a bite to eat across the street from her apartment complex before heading to the office.
Upon hearing these words, he also nodded approvingly.
After they had breakfast, Melvin drove Carissa to her company.
“Carie, I will come to pick you up after work tonight!
Seemingly afraid of being rejected by her, Melvin hastily drove away after saying these words
Carissa couldn’t help but laugh when she saw his nervous expression through the car window,
She lowered her head and edited a message.
“Okay, then I’ll wait for you.”
