Chapter 89 Ch Eighty Nine

• Malcolm had been so bothered about Zoe ever since he traveled out of the country for business a day after the party they both went to, because she had not been picking up his calls and merely replied to his messages with curt words that portrayed her unwillingness to continue the conversation. Her responses had been almost dismissive over the past few days, and it gnawed at him more than he cared to admit.
• He didn't know what she had done to make him so soft and expectant, but he knew that he wanted to see her and know what she had been thinking after his sudden confession and action at the party.
• ‘Had she been avoiding him because of that?’ He pondered wearily as he looked so bothered, as he prepared to return home from his business trip as excitement warred with nervousness in his heart.
