Chapter 130
Before Stella was safely sent home, Justin didn’t speak to her again, as if he wanted to give her time to think
It was quiet all the way. However, the quieter it was, the more restless she felt. As she looked out of the car window at the receding street lights, the scenery in front of her muddled together, and her vision became narrow. She could not see the future, nor could she look back at the road taken before. She closed her eyes, unable to think or be confused. Only when the car stopped did she realize she had reached home. She unbuckled the seatbelt, wanting to get out of the car. Suddenly, he said, “Wait.” She stopped in response and looked at him. Meeting her emotionless eyes, the man’s eyes flickered for a moment. Then, he suddenly leaned over and helped her with the seatbelt. His hand touched her coat, but he did not make any intimate action. He only tugged it slightly, but it had completely revealed his thought.
Looking down at his movement, she wanted to refuse at first. But she loosened her fists slowly, then put her hands at her sides and closed her eyes.
She did consider what he told her just now.
It sounded absurd at first, but when she thought of how Weston had been pestering her, she suddenly thought that it might be a possible solution.
After all, like Justin had already said, there was nothing bad with them getting together.
It could stop Weston from pestering her. And for both parties, they would get what they wanted from each other.
Seeing that her attitude had softened significantly, he softened his gaze as well.
After they got out of the car, he followed her to the lobby of her apartment.
It was not a high-class neighborhood, but it was considered safe as she was living with her brother. But for a woman being outside alone, there was still danger,
He didn’t think this way before. But now, he felt that this neighborhood was indeed not a good place to live. No matter where he looked, he could find faults.
The two walked downstairs. Before they arrived at the door, he reminded her. “When can you have time to register our marriage?” She nearly choked and coughed several times. With a red face, she asked, “So soon?” “It’s not too soon.” He paused and pushed the rusty door open. Letting her go in first, he then C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
closed the rusty gate behind her. “Weston has gone to settle some matters in Ahn City. It might not be easy to do so when he is back.”
Her eyes darkened immediately. As soon as she heard his name, she would feel cold. Looking at her like this, he suddenly felt complicated. He walked up to her and took her hand.
“If you are willing to believe me, I promise you that I will give you everything you need after we get married. No matter if you are willing to accept my feelings or not, at least I will be a responsible husband. I won’t force you and will respect all your wishes. As long as we are loyal to this marriage, I believe we can become a mutually supportive and honest couple.”
She couldn’t deny that she was moved by his words.
This was what her heart longed for the most.
She used to like Weston and couldn’t help falling in love with him after she got to know him, and she longed for a family of her own.
She didn’t need the man to be a big boss or anything. She simply wanted to spend her life in peace with the man she loved.
Somehow, she fell in love with a man like Weston, who already had Guinevere for a long time. Now, she knew that her love had long worn off. And she knew that she might not be able to love anyone so intensely anymore.
