Clear your mind a little?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Florence slowly pulled back, and the concern in his eyes made her chest tighten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A walk?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brandon nodded, brushing a stray lock of blonde hair from her cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with a small tilt of his head, he gestured toward the car parked by the driveway, \"Come on. Let’s go somewhere quiet. Get in the car with me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She exhaled slowly, nodding once before slipping her hand into his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without letting go, he guided her toward the car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they reached the car, Brandon stopped by the passenger side and opened the door for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gestured lightly toward the seat, \"Your chariot, my lady.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She dipped her head and a soft laugh escaped despite the heaviness in her chest. \"You do spoil me, Brandon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brandon closed the door softly after her, circling around to the driver’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he settled in and started the engine, Florence turned her head toward him, looking at his side profile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car hummed softly as it rolled along the quiet coastal road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every so often, Brandon’s gaze flicked away from the road, drawn irresistibly to Florence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sat with one arm draped elegantly against the window with her chin propped lightly on her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiled faintly to himself, turning his eyes back to the road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The city lights had long since dwindled, replaced by the dark expanse of ocean and sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The road stretched in a winding ribbon along the coastline and the ocean stretched endlessly into the horizon, bathed in the moonlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brandon eased his foot off the accelerator, letting the car slow until it coasted to a stop on the sandy edge of the beach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tires crunched against the loose grains before settling and the hum of the engine dimmed as he switched it off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brandon stepped out first before moving around to Florence’s side and opening her door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The breeze tugged at her hair immediately as she hugged herself against the faint cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, Brandon guided her toward the front of the car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned casually against the hood and patted the spot beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Florence gathered the hem of her dress slightly so it wouldn’t snag, then eased herself down gracefully next to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them sat there, shoulder to shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a while, neither spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Florence tilted her head back and her eyes traced constellations among the stars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, she let out a quiet sigh and leaned sideways, her shoulder brushing against his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, almost without thought, she rested her head gently against his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brandon shifted slightly to adjust so her weight rested more comfortably against him and then raised one arm to drape lightly around her back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced down at her and said softly \"You know, I almost didn’t call you tonight. Thought maybe you would be too busy... or that I would be bothering you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Florence tilted her head slightly, looking up at him. \"Bother me?\" she repeated with a faint laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brandon, if anything, I felt guilty for cutting you off earlier. I... didn’t want you to think I was avoiding you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiled at that, reaching up to pat her head gently, his fingers brushing through her hair before settling lightly against her cheek \"Then we’re both overthinking, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm.\" She closed her eyes at his touch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them sat like that and Brandon shifted slightly so she could lean more comfortably, and Florence took the invitation, pressing closer to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brandon tilted his head up toward the constellations. \"Look. Orion.\" He pointed, guiding her gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Florence looked up and followed the line of his finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze landed on the familiar cluster and the three stars of Orion’s Belt gleamed under the night sky together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint smile touched her lips as she added, \"I’ve heard... that if you made a wish on a star near Orion’s Belt, it has more chance of coming true.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brandon glanced at her in amusement \"Really? Sounds like superstition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Florence tilted her chin up to look at him, \"Maybe. But sometimes... don’t you think superstitions are just a way for us to hope a little harder? To believe that the universe is listening, even when no one else is?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, he turned back toward the sky, his arm tightening just a little around her shoulders. \"Then maybe... we should try it. You can make a wish tonight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Florence turned her gaze back toward Orion and Brandon lowered his head slightly, his breath brushing against her temple as he murmured, \"What would you wish for, Florence?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her fingers curled gently against his sleeve and she gave a faint laugh, shaking her head. \"If I told you, it might not come true.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brandon chuckled softly at that and leaned back, listening to the waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They sat in another silence for a few moments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Florence...\" he finally murmured. \"What’s bothering you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The question was soft, as though he didn’t want to press too hard on the subject but couldn’t stop himself from asking either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Florence’s body stiffened faintly in his hold, and she lowered her gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’No... telling him will make Eira and Brandon worry about their relationship unnecessarily and Brandon will be concerned about me too. I can handle this myself.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, just as quickly, she exhaled and forced a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her head tilted slightly against his shoulder, \"Nothing much. I guess I just needed a little air. And... you brought me here. That’s already enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brandon turned his head slightly to look down at her and he was not entirely convinced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fingers tapped softly against her arm in thought, but he didn’t push further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Florence’s smile faltered for just a heartbeat as she felt the sincerity in his silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could sense he didn’t fully believe her, but he was giving her space, letting her come to him when she was ready.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That, somehow, made her chest ache even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gently, he brushed his hand through her hair and asked in a quiet tone \"Then... how about we go for a walk? Just a little, along the shore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Florence stirred faintly against him, her lashes lowering as she shook her head. \"No...\" she murmured, her hand curling against his chest as though to keep him from moving away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t want that right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pressed a little closer and whispered, \"Right now, I just want to be with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1096,"2026-05-30T03:52:04.456Z","2026-06-01T04:30:14.553Z",1,"novelbin.me","d254a2ff68c0b2e951ff5b0f68a1cc33541711255c75bca797b69a07a7de73ea","getting-spoiled-in-a-woman-dominating-world-chapter-293","getting-spoiled-in-a-woman-dominating-world-chapter-291",523,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgetting-spoiled-in-a-woman-dominating-world-cover.jpg"]
