I Am the Sweetheart of Mr. CEO-Chapter 449 - 448: At the Depth of Love, One Is Left Alone (Part 1)

Previously, due to Andre Colin’s arrangements, Grandma Wave was hospitalized here, and at the final checkout, they only charged the lowest cost and medication fees, nothing for inpatient care.

This kindness, Vera Wave naturally remembered in her heart.

She has never liked to owe people favors, let alone the other party is a friend of Kris Cooper. Without expressing her gratitude, she wouldn’t feel at ease.

"Alright." Andre Colin didn’t refuse any further, "Then I won’t stand on ceremony."

Seeing him accept it, Vera Wave finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Please sit!" Andre Colin invited her to sit again, placing the gift box back on the table, his gaze sweeping over her small face as he warmly spoke, "Vera, how’s your mental state recently?"

"It’s okay."

"I don’t think you look well." Andre Colin’s dark eyes scrutinized Vera Wave, who was pretending to drink orange juice to cover it up, "But you know, I’m very good friends with Kris Cooper, so if you need any help, just let me know."

He is a PhD in psychology, best at observing people’s minds.

From the moment Vera walked in today, Andre Colin could tell something was off with her.

Her complexion was poor, her eyes were red, either from crying or sleeplessness all night, or both.

He already knew about Kris Cooper’s proposal. Logically, the two would be happily in love during this period, but her current state clearly indicated something was wrong.

"Okay."

Vera lowered her eyes, smiling in response, then put the cup back on the table, "Then I won’t stay long, the driver is waiting for me downstairs. Thanks, Brother Andre!"

Bending slightly towards him, she earnestly thanked him, then looked up and smiled at him.

"I’m off, goodbye!"

"Vera!" Andre Colin stood up and called after her, asking behind her back, "You and Kris... is everything alright?"

At her age, crying to this extent likely boils down to a few reasons.

Either troubled by love, grieving over loss, or facing setbacks in life or work.

Andre Colin understood her situation, knowing Grandma Wave was just discharged and everything was fine, ruling out the second point.

She now works at Ashton’s firm, and given her relationship with Kris Cooper, no one at Ashton would dare trouble her.

With these two points eliminated, only love was left, which is why Andre Colin pressed on with his questions.

His words hit the mark, causing the smile on Vera’s face to freeze instantly.

However, she quickly adjusted her emotions and turned to smile at him.

"No, why would Brother Andre ask that?"

Seeing that she didn’t want to say more, Andre Colin didn’t push further, instead walked up to her with a smile. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"Everything about Kris is great, except his bad temper. He can be quite irritable sometimes. If he ever does anything to hurt you, don’t hold it against him. If he dares to bully you, just tell me, I’ll help you out."

Listening to his warm and kind words, Vera felt grateful but also more saddened.

She tried hard to control her emotions, nodded at him with a smile, and spoke softly.

"Don’t worry, if that guy dares to bully me, you’ll be the first one I tell. Shall I... get going now?"

"Alright."

Andre Colin personally saw her to the elevator, reminded her to call anytime if there’s anything, and then waved goodbye to her.

Watching the elevator doors close, Andre Colin gently shook his head.

"These hormones that bring both joy and worry... how powerful you are!"
