Having no experience with women, he seemed calm on the surface, but he was actually a bit nervous inside.
However, he was always good at hiding his emotions, and most people couldn’t tell what he was really feeling.
Bringing up that night, he hesitated and first looked at Aria Rowlett’s reaction. After not sensing any resistance from her about the topic, he continued softly, "I’m sorry. The situation was exceptional then, and I did something that I couldn’t control rationally."
"Although I know saying this now doesn’t mean much, I still want to apologize to you in person."
It was her first time that night.
The first time for a girl is always very important, right?
But he took advantage of her under such circumstances, and even though he tried to compensate her afterwards, he still felt somewhat guilty towards her.
Surely, one would hope to do such a thing with someone they loved.
But to her, he was just a stranger.
That’s also why he ultimately decided to see her again.
He couldn’t take advantage of her and then let her not even know what the person who did that looked like.
That would be too much.
Aria, hearing his apology, was stunned and looked up in surprise.
Brandon Heath’s eyes were gentle, "Ms. Aria, I also want to apologize to you for my previous way of compensation. That was the worst decision I’ve ever made. It was my first time encountering such a situation, and I was a bit confused, so I didn’t think rationally and calmly, and I had Luke find you."
"I regretted it once I calmed down."
"You are a good girl, and that way was an insult to you. I hope you can accept my apology and let me compensate you properly, alright?"
Aria gazed into his sincere, warm eyes, her lips moved but without thinking, she blurted out, "I don’t think it was an insult, you don’t have to feel sorry for me. Besides, I should be the one compensating you, after all, I’ve always wanted to sleep with you, I... "
Brandon Heath just picked up the coffee on the table, and his hand suddenly shook, causing the coffee to almost spill out.
He looked at Aria in astonishment, "Ms. Aria, you... "
Halfway through the sentence, Aria suddenly realized what she had said.
When she realized what she had said, she froze, and her face flushed like a burning flame.
"No, Mr. Brandon, I just..." she hurriedly tried to explain, her face almost ready to burn up, "I didn’t mean that, what I meant is that you don’t have to feel sorry for me. That night... that night, you didn’t force me, I... I did it willingly."
Did she just have a brain fart?
What did she just say?
She actually blurted out what she was thinking.
Ah, she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
He must have heard everything, right?
He must have, or else why would he have that expression on his face?
Aria’s face grew hotter and hotter, feeling like the more she explained, the more it seemed like she was trying to cover it up. Nothing she said seemed right.
She felt like she couldn’t think straight since she saw Brandon Heath.
She didn’t even know what she was saying or doing.
She was completely out of it.
Brandon Heath maintained his stunned expression, watching her bury her head lower and lower...
As if she couldn’t wait to bury herself completely.
