Chapter 635 The Heavy Heart
The text was from an unknown number.
After a few seconds, before Faye could figure it out, the strange number sent a second text which said, "I'm just kidding. Don't take it seriously."
Seeing that text, Faye raised her eyebrows lightly.
He was just kidding?
Faye stared at the phone for a while before she turned to look at Colin.
Colin closed his eyes and slept soundly. She couldn't see any difference in his expression.
Faye stared at Colin for about half a minute. Then, she moved her fingertips across the phone screen and deleted the few texts from that unfamiliar number.
On the next day.
When Faye got up, Colin was already having his breakfast downstairs.
Faye went downstairs after washing up. Colin raised his head when he heard the noise, smiled fondly, and said, "You're awake?"
Faye tapped her fingertips on the handrail of the stairs and said, "Um."
Seeing that Faye was approaching him, Colin put a bowl of cereal in front of her. Then, he stretched out his hand to tuck her hair from her cheek to the back of her ear, and pinched Faye's earlobe affectionately, "You don't seem well rested."
Faye replied with a very light "um". Then, she picked up the spoon, stirred inside the bowl, and said, "I had a nightmare."
Colin responded, "Take a day off if you are tired."
Faye brought a mouthful of cereals into her mouth and said, "I can't. There has been a lot of work in the PR department recently."
Colin laughed and said, "You're so hardworking."
Faye smiled and didn't answer.
After having breakfast, Colin left first.
As soon as Colin left, Faye put down the spoon and turned to look at Cindy, who was busy in the kitchen. She asked, "Cindy, what time do Lance and the others usually have their breakfast?"
Cindy stopped what she was doing and answered, "It's usually nine o'clock."
After that, Cindy added, "But there was only Emmett who ate alone this morning. Lance and Andy weren't there."
Faye reached out, took out a tissue to wipe her mouth, and said, "Um."
Cindy looked at Faye across the kitchen and couldn't see read her expression. She swallowed hard and thought to herself, "Did I say something wrong?"
When Cindy was doubting herself, Faye raised her lips and smiled at her, "I'll leave you alone."
After that, Faye got up and left.
