For the first week, Chleo did her job easily. Chleo was also getting closer to her colleagues in this department. Alexis contacted her via voice call just yesterday afternoon.
Chleo was very happy to receive the young man's call, and she excitedly shared about her experience at her work in this company.
Alexis congratulated her, and the two of them chatted like friends. Only this time, Chleo held back a bit and didn't act as intimate as before. She knew that once Alexis returned to America, she would reject the young man's feelings. That's why she started to keep her distance a little.
She didn't want to give hope to Alexis. At the same time, she didn't want to ruin their current bond. After all, Alexis still has a place in her heart. To her, Alexis was an older brother she could never have.
Is she selfish? Perhaps, but she didn't care. She was used to getting whatever she wanted. Her parents and uncles would make sure Chleo got whatever she wanted.
