Your Uncle’s My Husband Now Back Off Ex (Nyla and Clark) novel Chapter 1330

"Valarie, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have given you the silent treatment for so long. I wasn't even angry anymore. I just… couldn't bring myself to reach out first," Brandon said.

Valarie frowned slightly, her eyes filled with disbelief. "Then why is it that every time I texted you or came to see you, you acted so cold? And now, as I'm leaving, you suddenly run over and hug me like you don't want me to go. Don't you think you're being unreasonable?"

Brandon lowered his gaze. "Because I felt like if I let you walk away, we might really break up."

Valarie pressed her lips together and remained silent.

To be honest, when she turned to leave just now, breaking up had definitely crossed her mind.

How could a relationship where communication didn't work, and every conflict led to silence, last?

After a moment of silence, Brandon looked up at her again. "Valarie, I know ignoring you all this time hurt you. I'm sorry. I was just trying to figure out how we could be together in a way that felt right for both of us."

"You don't have to apologize. I've been thinking too. I realize now that I was unfair to you. I'm sorry. I'll try to do better in the future," Valarie replied.

Brandon hummed.

They exchanged a smile, warmth softening their gazes.

Brandon pulled Valarie into a hug and said gently, "Valarie, I hope we can move forward without fighting like this again."

The past two weeks without her had been unbearable. He'd buried himself in work, trying to distract himself, but she was all he could think about in the quiet moments.

Was she eating well? Was she thinking about him too?

Even if she hadn't come to find him today, he knew he wouldn't have lasted much longer before reaching out himself.

Life without her felt empty. Every second dragged. Only when she was by his side did he feel at peace.
