Chapter 2518
When His Eyes Opened
Layla looked at Ericâs reply, dumbfounded.
She felt Eric accommodating and pampering her.
However, she knew what was on his mind.
No matter which man Eric introduced to her, she would not like it.
She put down her phone, trying to calm herself down.
She went into the bathroom and dried her hair with a hairdryer.
While drying her hair, a thought came to her mind that why didnât she express her feelings directly to
Eric and saw how Eric reacted.
Anyway, Ericâs about to retire. When he quitted the circle, he would be an ordinary person, and he
could fall in love with whoever he wantedâ¦
After drying her hair, Laylaâs head continued to feel hot.
She put away the hair dryer, walked to the bedroom, picked up her phone again, and sent a message
to Eric: [How about you being my boyfriend?]
After sending the message, Laylaâs fingers were numb. After throwing the phone on the bed, she
covered her face with her hands. She couldnât imagine how Eric would react when he saw the news, let
alone how Eric would reply.
âAh! Iâm so dizzy! Will he ignore me again!â Layla, with disheveled hair, paced up and down the room,
getting hotter and hotter.
She tied her hair up with a rubber band, then walked carefully to the bed and picked up her phone.
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and turned on her phone.
ââEric did not reply to her message.
Layla froze.
What did Ericâs failure to reply mean?
She blushed and continued to send messages: [Iâm serious, you donât have a girlfriend, and I donât
have a boyfriend, letâs try it!]
Layla was not only so direct with Eric, she had been more direct with everyone and everything since
she was a child.
If She kept her stuffed up, she would feel like sheâs going to explode.
As a result, after she sent the second sentence, Eric still didnât reply.
Layla rolled around on the bed with her mobile phone in her hand. After wailing a few times, she
couldnât bear it anymore and dialed Ericâs number.
Who knew, Eric didnât answer the phone!
Layla dared not tell her parents about this, so she could only complain to her best friend: [Daisy, I
confessed my love to Eric, but he ignored me! I sent him a message and he didnât reply. Called him and
he wonât answered my call. Heâd never been like this before! Was he going to break up with me?]
Layla was a little scared.
This was not the result she wanted.
Daisy replied quickly: [Heâll definitely not break up with you! You just confessed to him, and you didnât
do anything to hurt him. He might be shocked and didnât know how to reply to you. When he thinks it
over, heâll get back to you.]
Layla: [I have a feeling heâs going to reject me. He has a relatively strong self-esteem, as long as he
thinks that my parents will object, he will definitely not agree.]
Daisy: [Since you know that the problem between the two of you lies with your parents, why do you still
confess your love? Isnât it just asking for trouble?]
Layla: [But I canât help it! Ever since I met him, Iâve found that I miss him all the time. If I have to marry
someone, then I want to marry him. I despise other men.]
Daisy: [Calm down first! Although Eric is quite attractive, Layla, you are not bad! You wait two days to
think about it again. If you still want to marry him after waiting for two days, then go and confess to your
parents! You can only be with Eric if you get through with your parents.]
Layla: [Then let me calm down for two days!]
After sending messages with Daisy, Layla clicked on Ericâs dialog box.
She didnât see his reply in the last second, but in the next second, his reply came: [Noâ¦]
Eric said âNoâ.
The rejection was simply forceful.
Layla lay down on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Itâs so hard!
Getting Eric to agree was one difficulty, getting parents to accept it was another difficulty.
It was like two big mountains were pressing on her body, making her breathless.
