Lydia had no choice but to let it go.
“I understand. But if you run into any more problems, be sure to tell me right away.”
“I know.”
They chatted about more idle matters throughout the meal, after which Hannah checked her phone.
“I still have an hour before I need to go back to the office. Do you want me to show you around the area?”
Lydia smiled and shook her head.
“It’s okay. I wouldn’t want to take up too much of your time, Miss Moore. You can get back to work, and I’ll try to figure out how to deal with my father. I’ll ask you out on a date another day.”
Hannah nodded.
“ALL right. Get back safe.”
They parted ways outside the restaurant. On her way back to the company, Hannah received a call.
“Is this Miss Moore?”
“Yes.”
The female voice on the other end seemed to turn sweeter after hearing that.
“Hello, Miss Moore. I am calling from Lisa Jewelry to remind you of the custom-made cuff links that you commissioned. It is ready to be picked up.”
Hannah had completely forgotten about it. She had placed the order almost a month ago.
The cuff links were supposed to be a birthday present for Bryson.
And his birthday was next weekend.
Hannah’s steps faltered. She couldn’t cancel the items, they were custom-made. She sighed to herself. It seemed that she couldn’t totally break away from Bryson, even though their relationship had already ended.

“Miss Moore?” The caller asked tentatively when Hannah said nothing.
“Are you still there? Will you be picking up the items today?”
“Yes,” Hannah finally replied.
“I’m on my way, actually.”
“Very good, Miss Moore. I will be waiting for your arrival.”
The store wasn’t far from the White Group building. Hannah hailed a taxi and got to the store in about ten minutes.
