Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 1609



Hearing Lena's question in the bathroom, she paused, realizing she didn't know what Bruno liked.

Whenever they hung out, Bruno would always accommodate her preferences, so she wouldn't have thought of taking notice of anything else.

It dawned on her that she had been too selfish. She'd have to take note of Bruno's likes and dislikes in the future.

"I'm not too sure either."

She answered tepidly, speaking the truth.

"You're not sure? Yeah, right. Didn't you two grow up together? Shouldn't you know at least a thing or two?"

"I really don't," Mashauva said, shaking her head. "He doesn't seem to have anything he likes particularly. Why don't you guys Google it?" "Alright then."

By the time Mashauva exited the bathroom, the lights in the dormitory had switched off, so she dared not make any more noise, threading her way to her bed.

When she woke up the next day, Frida had left for the library, and she would already be asleep when Mashauva returned to the dormitory at night. No matter what, Mashauva couldn't get the chance to talk to her despite how badly she wanted to.

On the other hand, Lena and Hailey had gotten their gifts ready and handed them to Mashauva. "Mashauva, here are the gifts Hailey and I have prepared for Bruno. Please hand them to him for us."

One of the gift boxes was pink while the other was light blue, and there was a big heart drawn on both of them. One didn't need to be a genius to guess they wanted to confess their love for Bruno.

"Hello, Earth to Mashauva. What are you waiting for? Take it."

Lena shoved the two presents into Mashauva's arms and reminded, "You have to give them to Bruno today, alright? You're the best."

"Today?"

"Yeah."

"Well, alright, I'll try."

After class, with the gifts in hand, Mashauva took a bus to Bruno's school.

Bruno's school wasn't too far from hers as it was only a bus ride away, but the weather was

scorching, so she arrived at the academy with her face flushed, only to find that there wasn't even a person at the gates.

There was a shady tree some distance away from the gate, and she wanted to go under it to cool down, but she also wanted to wait for Bruno to show up, so she decided to stay by the gates and strained her neck to see the inside.

Several minutes later, a guard emerged from the guardhouse and waved at Mashauva.

"Miss, it's lunch break now. What is your purpose for being here?"

Lunch break?

Somewhat embarrassed, Mashauva apologized sheepishly, "I'm sorry, Sir. I didn't know. I'm here for my brother."

"Your brother?"

The guard then asked, "Who's he? What's his name? Maybe I can ask around."

"My brother's name is Bruno Collins, Sir. Since it's lunch break now, I'll come back some other time."

With that, Mashauva turned around to leave, but the guard stopped her, as he felt bad, seeing her face was flushed from the hot sun, and her back was drenched in sweat.

"Hold up, Miss. Since you've already come all this way, why not wait a little longer. I can make a call and ask around, or perhaps I can bring you to him."

In truth, people who came for Bruno

were anything but few and far between, and they'd bring gifts with them, just like Mashauva did, so it was just another day's work for the guard. Many girls from neighboring schools wanted to win Brunoover, so they'd claim to be Bruno's sister, classmate, or even girlfriend, but the guard would never let them in normally.

However, Mashauva's gaze was truly sincere, and she even decided to leave despite how hot she was after finding out it was lunch break. She was so sensible that the guard felt bad for her.

"Huh, really? Thank you, Sir. But if it's too troublesome, I can leave." Mashauva followed him into the guardhouse and uttered shyly.

"There's air conditioning in here. You can take a seat and rest for a while while I go ask around."

"Alright, thank you."

Mashauva wanted to put the gifts down; she didn't know what was inside, but they were quite heavy. Fortunately, she had been working out, or she would have long worn out her journey here.

She wanted to place the gifts on the table, but there was no space for her to do so, and it also seemed inappropriate to put them on the floor, so Mashauva had to continue carrying them.

Meanwhile, at the boys' dormitory.

Freddy was gaming on the sofa.

Bored out of his wits, he repeatedly stopped and continued the game e until he took his headphones off and asked sullenly, "Say, do you think there will be any health issues if Mashauva continued to lose weight like this?"

Bruno laid on his bed with his eyes closed as he rested, ignoring Freddy.

"Bruno, I'm talking to you. Don't play dead; I know you're not sleeping."

Bruno was never one for afternoon naps; he'd merely closed his eyes to let his body and mind rest. Their other two roommates slept like pigs, blasting their snores throughout the dormitory.

Freddy, who was already irritated, felt even worse the more he listened to their snore.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

"Bruno, say something. It's been a long time since we last saw her. Don't you miss her at all?"

As soon as she finished speaking, there came a knock on the door.

"Who is it?"

The door was pushed open; it was the guard. "Oh, you guys are taking a nap. Freddy, there's a young lady, claiming to be Bruno's sister, downstairs. She's in the guardhouse, carrying two big boxes."

"Oh, give me a break." Freddy's face turned glum, "There's already several this month, and here comes another. When will they learn to give up?! They can really come up with all sorts of ideas just to meet Bruno."

Freddy's impatient tone got the

guard thinking, "This is bad." But he chuckled and said, "I mean, it's normal for young girls to crush on goodlooking boys. She probably didn't have it easy, coming all the way here on such a hot day. Why not just go take a look?"

"Sir, please tell her to leave. Bruno won't meet her."

With that, the guard no longer persuaded them and only sighed. "Poor girl, her shirt was all drenched in sweat, even her hair was sticking to her forehead. She actually wanted to leave after I said you guys were on your lunch break."

"So what? If Bruno has to meet each and every one of them whenever they come, he will be utterly exhausted."

"Alright then, I'll just ask her to leave after she has enough rest."

When the guard turned around, he muttered to himself, "She's quite brave, I'll give her that. She may be chubby, but she has the courage to pursue boys like other girls. Don't think I've ever seen such a chubby yet adorable young lady."

The guard's words had caught Freddy's attention and he jolted up.

"What did you just say?"

At the same time, Bruno, who had been lying motionless on the bed with his eyes closed, shot his eyes wide open as he sat straight up.

The two looked at each other before Freddy sprung up and ran out the door. Although Bruno was more level-headed, he strode with a swift pace as

well.

"Hey, where are you two going?"
