Chapter 180: Marry Me
“Merry, please marry me!” Albert knelt down on one knee, holding a flower in one hand and a ring in the other, and formally proposed to Merry.
Merry held back her tears and finally came out of her eyes, she really wanted to say yes, her right hand had even reached out, but it was yanked back by her left hand.
“Merry, please marry me!” Albert said once more.
“I–” I–
Merry looked at Albert, the good word several times to rush out, but many people popped up in her mind, The Barrett family people, the Carlisle family people, these people kept changing in her mind, and finally, she could only hold her head.
“Ah–” watching Merry shouted, rushed up on the deck, Albert looked at the flowers and ring in his hand, a passionate heart, seemed to penetrate the yacht sank to the bottom of the sea.
Although very disappointed, but Albert is not worried about Merry, see her emotions just like that out of control or the first time, is there something else he does not know.
Merry stood at the bow of the boat, let the sea breeze blowing her long hair, her heart so chaotic, so painful, she really wanted to promise Albert, really wanted to marry him, she wanted a wedding of their own, that is Albert owed her, ten years ago, Albert promised, when she reached the legal age, he would give her a wedding of her own, but … …
Everything has changed, ten years, too much has changed. Although she is now the vice president of Sage Aviation, has a career, has wealth, but she is not happy.
Ten years ago, she had nothing, but she was happy, especially after she met Albert, which was the happiest time of her life. Because of this, ten years ago, no matter what conditions the old woman of The Barrett family proposed, she could not leave Albert.
Ten years ago, she could love him regardless, or ten years later, she can’t. She owes too much to others. Ten years ago, when she was unaccounted for by Daddy Lu, she told herself that she was no longer Merry, she was LISA, a woman who no longer belonged to her.
“Merry, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have pushed you.” Albert stepped forward, took off his jacket and draped it over Merry.
“It’s none of your business, it’s my own.” Merry wanted to break away from Albert, at this time, she didn’t want Albert to see her vulnerability, didn’t want Albert to see her conflict and heartache.
“I promise you, I won’t push you again, I will wait, until the day you nod your head.” Albert said nothing and refused to let go, not only that, but instead took Merry into his arms.
He knew it was a bit hasty, but Merry’s reaction was so great, it should not only be the reason why he proposed, there must be something else.
“There won’t be that day, Albert, it can’t go back to ten years ago, it can’t go back ……” Merry cried, pounding Albert.
She hated it so much, why did it have to happen ten years ago like that? Why did Albert not go to her earlier? Why did she not have the courage to stay at the beginning? Why ……
“Yes, Merry, we don’t need to go back to the past, we need to move on, we’ve wasted ten years, can you stand to waste another ten?” Albert didn’t want to irritate Merry and just hugged her tightly.
“You don’t understand, you won’t understand, let go of me, you let go of me, I want to go back, Albert, you let go of me, you are so free, you go find another woman ……” Merry struggled, but the more she struggled, the tighter Albert hugged.
“I don’t want other women, from the beginning to the end, I want only you, Merry, do you understand, these ten years, even if I thought you were dead, I still only have you in my heart ……,” Albert said and kissed Merry in spite of everything. The Merry of the world.
“No ……” Merry wanted to get rid of, but could not get rid of, but this time is different from before dinner, she was too angry, and actually bit Albert hard.
Although it hurts, but Albert did not let go of his mouth, not only that, he also took the opportunity to invade Merry’s mouth, he looked at Merry, if Merry bite down at this time, or even bite off his tongue.
The two of them are just like this, big eyes to big eyes, although in the night, but can see the starlight in each other’s eyes, Merry is the first to admit defeat, she closed her eyes.
Albert let go of Merry, Merry squatting on the deck wailing, she never cried before, even if she was bullied very badly, she never cried.
But now, her heart really hurts, so painful, like being sawed open with a blunt instrument, the pain has exceeded her ability to bear.
“Ah – why? Why does it have to be so unfair–” Merry suddenly stood up and shouted at the sea, at the sky.
“Merry, what the hell is going on? What the hell has happened in the last ten years? You didn’t used to be like this?” Albert wanted to get closer to Merry, he wanted to know why? Wanted to know what made his Merry like this.
“Don’t come any closer, I want to be alone.” Merry shook her head and pointed at Albert.
“Merry, is it because of the Carlisle family? Do you feel indebted to them? Or is it because of your engagement to Tony?” Albert does not give up, this Valentine’s Day proposal is one side, the other is to ease the relationship with Merry.
“You should stop guessing nonsense, you are a young master born with a golden spoon, how can you understand the feelings of a fatherless, motherless and even abandoned person like me, you won’t understand, Albert, go away, we are two different worlds, we shouldn’t be together at all, let it all end ten years ago, just pretend that you never came to America, okay? ” Merry scratched her hair, such Merry, reminded Albert of something, he was a little uneasy, even a little worried.
“Merry, today is Valentine’s Day, the first Valentine’s Day we’ve spent together since we met, let’s not talk about that, okay?” Albert slowly moved closer to Merry, trying to pull her in.
“Yeah, it’s our first Valentine’s Day together, but we don’t really fit this holiday, this time of year, you should be with other …… what are you doing?” Merry looked at the reflection of the moon in the sea, ignoring the approaching Albert, who took the opportunity to hug her.
“Merry, it’s cold outside, let’s go to the room to talk, okay?” Albert hugged Merry and said softly.
“You go back, I want to be alone, there are some things, you will never understand, you can never experience, you let go of me ……” probably because at sea, ten years ago, Albert’s grandmother’s words kept echoing in her mind, which made Merry was annoyed, and Albert, who didn’t know why, was holding her tightly.
“Yes, I do not understand, I do not understand, you can tell me, can talk until I understand, Merry, ten years ago, we said, no matter what, we have to face together, you …… Merry …… “Albert hugged very tight, but he did not expect Merry again with that lift, he ate the pain, let go, only to hear a ‘thud’ sound, Merry disappeared in front of him.
“Help – help -” Merry also did not expect to fall into the sea because of the reaction force, when the cold seawater into the mouth, the fear of years ago came overwhelmingly like a mountain.
Hearing Merry call for help, Albert jumped in spite of everything. Fortunately, Merry couldn’t swim and kept flopping around after falling, so Albert soon found her.
“No, – I don’t want to die, don’t -” Merry’s hand waved, at this time she has been completely hidden in their own consciousness, simply do not know that Albert will be holding her.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Albert took a great deal of effort to pull Merry onto the yacht, fortunately he was physically fit, otherwise, I’m afraid both of them would have to freeze for a while.
After getting on the boat, Albert hurriedly laid Merry flat on the deck and made sure that she had only drunk a few mouthfuls of seawater and was not seriously hurt before putting.
“I don’t want to die,” Merry, back on the yacht, seemed to be sober, looking at the busy Albert, she mumbled.
Both of their clothes were soaked through, and Albert hurriedly helped her take off her soaked clothes.
“Merry, you won’t die, you won’t–” Albert picked up Merry, wanting to let her soak in warm water to warm up, “Merry, trust me, with me, I will never let anything happen to you again.” Albert put Merry into the warm water, at this moment, he realized why Merry was so scared, and realized how deep the hurt his grandmother gave her ten years ago.
“Albert, you’re finally here–” Hearing Albert’s voice, Merry’s eyes fixed on his face, and then suddenly hugged him fiercely and cried out.
“I will always be by your side, and will never leave you again.” Seeing Merry’s helpless look, Albert’s chest choked, he was sorry for Merry, he owed Merry too much.
“Don’t leave me, Albert, don’t leave me ……” Merry cried louder and louder. The hands hugged tighter, Albert even felt her nails clamped into his flesh.
Just now because the clothes were wet, so took off, this will be naked, did not expect Merry will hug so tight.
“No, it’s okay, it’s okay – listen, the sea water is cold, soak a hot water first -” Albert patted Merry’s back and soothed.
“I’m so scared, your grandmother is going to kill me, she’s going to kill me …… uhhh …… Albert, I don’t want to leave you, I don’t want to leave you, I don’t want to die… …” Merry not only did not let go, but hugged Albert tighter.
“No, Merry, it’s over, we’re in America now, there’s only two of us here, it’ll be fine, no one will kill you, believe me ……” Albert’s heart burst with pain, ten years ago, Merry alone facing the fear of death, and he knew nothing.
“America? This is in America ……” Hearing the word America, Merry’s hand loosened a little and her eyes left Albert’s face to look around in the bathroom.
“Yes, Merry, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have argued with you, I’m really sorry. This is in America, it’s at sea, there’s only two of us here ……” Albert hugged Merry tightly, although he didn’t believe that Merry was okay, but it was really scary to see Merry incoherent just now.
“Hello nasty, so nasty, know that people are afraid of water, you have to be at sea, so nasty ……” Merry’s hand although loosened some, but did not completely let go, still hugging Albert crying.
Albert originally in order to put Merry into the bathtub, one knee on the ground, kneeling for so long, this will be some numb legs, but Merry does not let go, he can not get up.
