CHAPTER 488

Chapter 488 His Confusion

“It’s getting late. I have to go home.” Mallory broke free from his embrace, and her expression

darkened.

“What?” Bridger was stunned. They had agreed to watch a movie together. He still had a lot of small activities to arrange. Why was she leaving now? Wasn’t she fine just now?

He couldn’t figure out what was going on. Seeing that the girl was about to leave, he grabbed her hand. “Paisley…”

After a pause, he changed his words, “Mallory, please tell me what’s going on. Why are you. changing your attitude so fast? My heart is like being tormented by a stove…”

Mallory turned and looked at him, then looked down at her hand that was being held by him. She wanted to say something but hesitated. owns this text.

“Mallory, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, just say it. I don’t know what to do now. What can I do to please you?”

Bridger had a worried look on his face, and his eyes were full of sincerity. Mallory thought for a moment, then shook her head and pulled her hand out of his hand. She said softly, “It’s not you, it’s my problem.”

“What?”

“It wasn’t you. It was me. It was my fault.” Her voice was soft and there was some hesitation and

confusion in it. “You…”

“If one day you find out that I am not me, will you still like me?”

There was silence.

Bridger blinked his eyes in confusion.

Obviously, he did not understand what she meant.

“What do you mean, you’re not you? You… What happened?”

Recently, he always felt that she was strange, but he did not understand what was going on. He

was not sure. Now that she said so, Bridger was very suspicious.

“It’s nothing. I was just spouting nonsense. Don’t take it seriously. I told you before that I have a weird temper. You… just forget it.” Mallory shook her head.

“I have to go back. Thank you for the gift. I like it very much,” she said.

She raised her hand to touch her earlobe. It would still hurt a little if she touched it. It reminded her that all of this was just a dream. There would still be a time when she had to wake up.

She forced a smile, turned around, and ran away.

Bridger was puzzled.

She ran into the car and left. The suspicion in his heart was getting bigger.

Paisley came back early today. She had finished all the work. When she found that Mallory had not come back, she was unhappy.

She made a call, but Mallory still did not answer. The anger in her heart grew. Just as she was about to call someone to find Mallory, the sound of a car came from outside. It seemed that Mallory had come back.

Paisley took a few steps forward and wanted to go out to take a look. However, she had only taken two steps and she paused. She turned around and walked back. She sat down on the sofa and slowly made coffee for herself. Just as she picked up the teacup, she heard the crisp sound of

high heels.

The sound paused for a moment. It sounded like Mallory had sprained her ankle. Paisley frowned. and thought that Mallory was so clumsy.

Mallory was not used to wearing high heels, but to imitate her sister, everything had to be done according to Paisley, and her feet were a little smaller than her sister’s, so every time she wore high

heels, she would twist her ankle a few times.

She did not know that Paisley had returned today. She simply took off her shoes and held them in

her hands. She ran a few steps, wanting to quickly hide in her small space. In this home, it was the

most correct thing for her to hide from others.

However, something unexpected happened today.

Paisley took a sip of tea and looked up. She saw a figure with a hunched back and something in

the hand. Mallory was jogging in.

Mallory didn’t see her and ran quickly. Just as the servant was about to speak, Mallory waved at the servant. She wanted to go back to her small, hidden basement.

“Stop!”

Mallory’s voice was filled with coldness. Mallory subconsciously stopped in her tracks. However, her speed was a bit too fast. Her feet slipped and she almost fell.

Fortunately, she had managed to hold on, but her appearance was somewhat miserable.

Looking at Mallory’s funny and miserable appearance, Paisley was furious. She had almost the same face as Mallory, but she would never do such a shameful thing.

“Paisley, you are back.” Mallory was a little flustered and spoke with a trembling voice, not daring to look up at her.

“What are you doing? Why are you sneaking around? Look at you!”

“No, nothing. I just came back, so I didn’t know that you are home. I … will go back to my room,” Mallory whispered.

After saying that, she wanted to leave, but Paisley placed the cup heavily on the table. “Stop!”

Mallory suddenly stopped.

Paisley could tell what Mallory was doing. She narrowed her eyes. “Come here!”

Although Mallory was reluctant, she did not dare to disobey her sister’s order. She moved over bit by bit and stopped after a few steps, standing there.

“Come here!”

Mallory took two steps forward and stopped.

“Do you want to die?” Paisley’s voice was cold. Mallory’s shoulder trembled and she moved a few steps forward. She stopped three steps away from Paisley.

Paisley glanced at her coldly and sized her up from top to bottom. After so many years of deliberate imitation, in all honesty, Mallory was very similar to Paisley in terms of height, build, face, and even hairstyle. Especially the face, it was almost replicated.

However, someone very familiar with them would be able to tell the difference in their demeanor

and charm.

Paisley would never allow herself to reveal such a timid and cowardly appearance.

“I asked you to go on a date with that man. What did you do today?” Paisley became impatient.

“We, we didn’t do anything.” Mallory lowered her head and replied carefully. She raised her eyes and glanced at Paisley. Seeing that Paisley’s expression was solemn, she trembled and changed her words. “I mean, just… have meals together.”

*Just eating?”

“We … went shopping and bought something.” When she said this, she hurriedly put the bag in her hand forward, “This… He bought them. I’ll give them to you.”

“What else?” Paisley did not even bother to take a look.

“Also… he said that he wanted to take me to a movie. I didn’t go, so I came back.” Thinking of that kiss, she blushed again, and she did not dare to say it. She did not want to say it, so she just hid it.

It was annoying to listen to it. There were only shopping, eating, and watching movies. That man only had those childish tricks to coax young girls. If not for his status, Paisley did not want to

waste her time on him.

“Enough. So much nonsense! I said before, in the future, don’t carry things yourself outside. Have you ever seen me carry things myself?”

Paisley thought that Mallory was so stupid that she couldn’t even learn such a small thing.

“I know,” Mallory whispered.

“Alright, get lost!”
