Love's Redemption

Redmption 268



What happened to Chris? Why was he covered in blood? Was he injured? Dreams like this usually meant something

The night before my parents' car accident, I had a bad dream too. I dreamed that my two front teeth fell out and bled profusely, and I woke up crying in forever.

I felt a wave of panic, and I even forgot the way Brandon was looking at me. It wasn't until his hand touched my forehead and gently wiped away the c "Did you have a nightmare?"

His voice brought me back to reality, and I realized he must have heard me calling out for Chris in my dream.

Not wanting him to misunderstand, I explained, "I dreamed of Chris standing at the foot of the bed, covered in blood. I asked him what was wrong, but "Don't worry, dreams are often the opposite of reality. If you're concerned, you can call him to check." Brandon unexpectedly suggested that I call Chris Shouldn't he be jealous in this situation? If it were Chris, he would definitely be jealous.

I looked outside and saw the sky was

getting bright. So, I snuggled into Brandon's arms and closed my tired eyes. "I'm sleepy. I want to sleep a bit more."

"Sure." Brandon stroked my head with his large hand. His tenderness toward me was just as usual, showing no signs of anger or jealousy.

But I was too exhausted and soon fell asleep again without thinking about anything. In my daze, I felt Brandon kissing my forehead and heard his low

"You're still worried about him."

I wanted to say something, but my mouth wouldn't move. When I woke up, it was already 9:00a.m. I knew I was going to be late for work. I noticed tha My body ached as if it had been taken apart and put back together. It seemed that there was some truth. in what was written in novels.

Lying in bed, my mind flashed back to the passionate night with Brandon, the dream I had in the middle of the night, and Brandon's words.

I closed my eyes, unable to believe that Chris would come and disturb my-first sweet night with Brandon.

But the scene of him covered in blood in the dream was quite frightening. I just couldn't shake off the uneasy feeling.

Even though Chris and I no longer

had romantic feelings for each other, the bond we shared over ten years had turned into familial affection. I picked up my phone and made a call, but not to Chris

Conrad.

Since he confessed to me and I turned him down, he had been very considerate and didn't bother me anymore. He was so understanding that it made me feel guilty. But still wanted to make sure that Chris was okay. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

"Maddie," Conrad's gentle voice came from the other end of the line.

“Conrad,” I called out: "How have you been lately?"

"I'm good. What's up?" His voice was light and cheerful

I felt relieved upon hearing that. If something had happened to Chris, he wouldn't be talking like this.

"It's nothing. I just wanted to ask when the amusement park is scheduled to open?" I quickly thought of an excuse.

If he thought about it carefully, he would know I was just making an excuse. If I had really wanted to know about the amusement park, I could have jus

"Chris hasn't set a date," Conrad replied truthfully.

I was a bit surprised. Before the lighting issue, the opening date of the amusement park had already been set, which was why I was so eager to get it fixed when the problem was discovered.

Now that everything was fixed, it should open as scheduled -

just a week from now. But hearing Conrad say this made it seem like the opening was still uncertain.

Usually, there would be a lot of preparation work before an opening, including promotions. But I haven't seen any advertisements yet. "Is there a problem?" I was still concerned about the project.

"No, there's no problem." Being the person in charge of the amusement park project, Conrad was certainly in a position to say that.
