Nathan changed his posture, so he was laying on his side and facing

Suzanne.

His voice was especially attractive in the pitch-black room, like smidnight rahost. Even his breathing was alluring.

“I married you even though I didn’t like you all because Grandma wantedto. It was very disrespectful and irresponsible of me.”

It was rare to meet a man who could self-reflect, be responsible, and respect women in the world these days. What was more, a man who had both power and wealth, like Nathan.

Suzanne couldn’t resist lying on her side to face him. She rested her head on her hand and asked gently, “You must have a lot of admirers,

Nathan.”

“I don’t know. No one’s ever confessed their feelings to me,” Nathan said lightly. “What about you? Is there someone you like?”

“Yes,” Suzanne said decidedly. Oh, how she wanted to co

But she wasn’t brave enough.

Nathan was always so cold and reserved. His domineering most women tremble when approaching him. Who would dare

confess to him?

Nathan was taken aback for a few moments. “Does he like you

“No. His heart belongs to another. It’s impossible for us to be together in this life.”

Nathan concluded, “So that’s why you wanted to marry me?”

Suzanne smiled weakly. The atmosphere between them had lightened up some. She teased, “What kind of logic is that?”

“Marriage isn’t child’s play, Suzanne. Why don’t we try to make this work?” Nathan suggested lightly.

Suzanne was stunned by his words. Her blood was rushing through her veins, her heart pounding in her chest as if it might explode.

Suzanne wondered if she was hallucinating.

Her nervousness showed in how her voice trembled. “What… What did

you say?

Nathan remained calm as ever. “Grandma doesn’t want us to divorce.

We should spend sttogether and try to make it work. We can separate when we find this relationship unsuitable.”

“Don’t… don’t you mind my background and past?” Suzanne was so excited her words weren’t coming out smoothly.

“Who doesn’t have a past they don’t want to face? People grow. I think you’re pretty okay right now, not too much of an issue.”

“What about Sally?”

Nathan grew silent at that.

Tension hung in the air, and his silence made sweat bead nervously Suzanne’s hands..

After several long moments, he said slowly, “If I still feel like I love Sally one day, I’ll let you know.”

Suzanne clearly knew that Nathan was only delaying their divorce in order to fulfill Vera’s wish. How could he not love Sally?

Even so, Suzanne couldn’t contain how excited she was. She turned so her back was facing him and wiped her tears away without him

looking.

Nathan may not love her, yet he was still giving them a chance to nurture their relationship so this marriage wouldn’t solely be made of

regret.

Suzanne knew that if she didn’t divorce Nathan now, she’d only fall deeper in love with him. But she was willing to put herself at risk like.

a moth to a flame, all for Nathan.

Even if Suzanne didn’t win his heart in the end, she would still have

tried her best.

“Are you okay?” Nathan asked softly

Suzanne couldn’t continue talking anymore. Her voice choked slightly. “I want to sleep now, Nathan. Could you stay quiet, please?”

“Okay.”

The room then grew quiet. Its atmosphere remained sullen.

The sounds of thunder weren’t so scary anymore that night.

Suzanne wasn’t sure when she fell asleep. When she woke up, the sun was shining brightly outside.

Nathan was nowhere to be found.

Suzanne curled her knees to her chest. She knocked herse head when she recalled her conversation with Nathan last nig

She had forgotten whether or not she agreed to Nathan’s sugg

How could she not have agreed to something so important?

Suzanne worried over it the entire morning, up until she looked at phone to find that Nathan had sent her a text.

“I’m taking your silence as agreement. I’m usually busy with work s won’t be able to spend much time with you. But I’ll do my best to

chto see you.”

Suzanne felt like she was on cloud nine after reading Nathan’s text message. She felt indescribably happy.

She held her phone and rolled on the bed like a fool, the smile on her face never disappearing.

After rolling for stime, Suzanne read the message again.

Though Nathan hadn’t said anything too sweet, Suzanne still felt like she’d just eaten the sweetest candy.
