Chapter 36

“She’s confident because you and I are still single. If you want her to back off, then marry me, Ellie.”

He was serious when he said that. I know he means it.

“I can’t marry you. I’m sorry.”

I was about to go to my room when he grabbed me.

“Tell me the reason, why you can’t marry me.” He said in a cold voice.

I almost shiver because of the coldness of his voice.

“I told you, you can’t marry me because of the kids. It’s not fair for the both of us.”

“I told you, Ellie, so many times that I like you. I don’t think I just like you. I am sure that for the longest time, I am already in love with you, Ellie. I know you can feel it too.”

He touched my face. I can see the love in his eyes. But I just can’t accept. I refuse to believe it, not again. His face went closer to mine. He kissed me. It was a sweet and gentle kiss. I kiss him back like how I usually do.

“Say something, my Quinn.” He whispers.

I flinched. He called me ‘my Quinn’ again. Did he finally remember me?
