Chapter 42

Joaquin tried his best to suppress the discomfort in his heart, but his expression was still somewhat stiff. "Well, I still have something to do in my company. I'll return first. Stay safe while you return to school alone."

He silently removed his hand from Beatrice's hand as he said that.

Beatrice had a disappointed look as she glared sadly at him. "Joe, do you not like me? It's fine even if you don't. I told you long ago that whatever happened five years ago was of my own will. You don't need to compel yourself to take the responsibility."

The more she spoke, the sadder she was; her eyes became red and crystal tears started forming in her eyes.

Joaquin couldn't bear to see her in this state, so he comforted her, "What are you thinking about, Beatrice? I will surely marry you since I promised you. Please give me some time."

When she heard the words, she looked up at him with a bitter expression. "Joe, I trust you, but could you please spend more time with me? I am really insecure. I-I always worry that you won't want me and that you will leave me."

Seeing her like this, he couldn't take it anymore.

He had bullied her five years ago, so he couldn't be such a sc*mbag and not take responsibility for her.

"I'll come with you tomorrow. Plan your day ahead and I'll pick you up at school tomorrow." Joaquin hugged her as he forced himself to ignore his unease.

Beatrice then snuggled into his arms and reached out to hug his waist.

The moment she touched his waist, she could clearly feel the man's body tightening as if he was resisting it.

Beatrice bit her lower lip secretly, feeling a little resentful in her heart.

She really couldn't understand why things wouldn't go as she imagined!

It had been five years. In these years, the most intimate actions between them were only hugging and holding hands. Joaquin had never even kissed her!

"Okay. Then, I'll think about the places I want to go to tomorrow when I head back tonight. You will accompany me no matter where we go, right?" She raised her head with a smile on her endearing face while a hint of tears still remained in her eyes.
