Chapter 148 Do You Have an Extramarital Affair?

They were so close, and Darlene subconsciously retreated. “Mr. Walpole, you drank too much. You should rest.”

Gustave’s gaze fell on her. He was a little dazed, but his voice was still clear.

“Everything can be settled. Aurora, don’t secretly take it alone because you are afraid of being a burden on me. You were the one who stayed with me twelve years ago. Now, it’s my turn to go through it with you.”

Even if it was about death, he would definitely stay with her.

He continued in a low voice, “I can help you, and I am willing to help you. But you have to stay here and trust me.”

Darlene nodded. Her heart, which had been cold in the past, seemed to have warmed up a little because of expectations.

“Alright, I won’t leave. Thank you. I used to think that living was too boring for a long time,” she said firmly.

“But now, I suddenly feel that I can actually give it a try. Perhaps life isn’t completely hopeless.”

Gustave patted her shoulder and lowered his gaze to look at her with affection.

“Aurora, I’ve been missing you all these years. No one has been nice to me, and no one has cooked such delicious spaghetti as you did.”

He had hired many maids, and he had also eaten a lot of food in the restaurant.

Darlene’s cooking was indeed good, but it was not the best.

But it was different. Those people cooked for money or with purpose.

But the ten–year–old Aurora cooked with a stool under her feet. She would cook spaghetti in the narrow kitchen of the orphanage because Gustave, who was disfigured and did not want to go to the canteen to eat, was hungry.

Outsiders said that Gustave was ruthless, but in fact, he remembered everything better than anyone else.

As he approached, Darlene felt his breathing. Something between them seemed to

change silently.

It was only when Gustave’s face was very close that she suddenly came back to her
