Chapter 35 Is That Why You Like Me?

“But at that time, I struggled to understand your feelings due to my limited understanding. Yet, you never despised me; instead, you stood steadfastly by my side and supported me every step of the way.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Initially, I thought our happiness would last forever. But in my dream, an unexpected occurrence restored my intelligence, wiping clean all memories of our time together.

“I began inflicting cruel pain on you, convincing myself that by treating you this way, you wouldn’t love me anymore, wouldn’t confine me, and would let me go. It was a misguided assumption. In the dream, you pleaded with me not to leave you, but I disregarded your pleas. Meanwhile, your overseas business encountered difficulties, compelling you to travel abroad to resolve them. Before leaving, you said, ‘Be a good girl and wait for my return. 1 didn’t heed your words,” Samantha choked as she continued.

“After your departure, I fled, escaping the stifling confines of the villa. At that moment, I held onto the hope that happiness awaited me, but tragedy soon befell me. I was murdered, my body callously discarded in the woods to decay under the sun.

“My body decomposed and was ravaged by snakes, insects, rats, and ants. Just when all hope seemed lost, you appeared. Like a ray of sunshine, you stood before my decaying corpse. With tenderness, you lifted my rotting body, cradling me as if I were a precious treasure, and brought me back to the villa I had desperately sought to flee.

“Gently, you placed me on the bed, kissing my decaying flesh. After avenging my death, you drank poison, ending your own life in front of my lifeless body.

Samantha shook her head. “No, to me, it wasn’t a dream. It felt as though I had experienced it firsthand. Whether you believe my words or not, I want you to know that since I’ve chosen to love you, I will never let you go.”

After a lingering silence, he asked. “Is that why you like me?”

She nodded. “Yes, that’s why I like you.”

He couldn’t help but chuckle at her words. “Your excuse is quite feeble. My grandfather used To send women to me, each with their own reasons for liking me. When I asked them why,

they would concoct elaborate explanations. Yet, even their fanciful tales seem more convincing than your claim that your fondness for me began in the realm of dreams.”

Despite her sincere recounting to Finley, he didn’t believe even a word she said.

Is he still doubting my sincerity toward him? she wondered.

With a pained expression, she looked at Finley and confessed, “Finley, I’m serious.”

But he didn’t believe her. Her sincerity, to him, seemed like a jest.

Falling for me in a dream?

In a dream?

Finley sneered. Now that the thunder had stopped and the pain of his body had subsided, he distanced himself from Samantha, addressing her coldly. “You…”
