Chapter 1059 No Romantic Feelings

"That's all in the past," Sadie cut Joe off, her voice firm. "There are just too many issues between us. We can't be together." "That's a shame," Joe replied, though he sounded a bit relieved.

"But Joe..." Sadie continued softly, not wanting to hurt him. "I don't have romantic feelings for you. I see you as a good friend."

"I get it," Joe said, unfazed. "That's fine. As long as you don't hate me, feelings can grow. My parents got married first and fell in love later. Look how happy they are now."

Sadie was momentarily speechless. Craig Louis and Amanda Robinson were known for their loving relationship, and their harmonious family life clearly nourished Joe's kind and pure-hearted nature.

"I told Tristan not to push you into marriage," Joe went on. "I hope you'll marry me willingly. We can start as friends, and if you fall in love with me, we can think about marriage. Of course, if you're ready to marry me now, I'd be thrilled. We can develop our feelings after marriage. My parents are even talking about meeting with Tristan."
