Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 1537

"Who else are you so concerned about if it wasn't me..." Maryanne seemed to be mumbling to herself when she suddenly asked, "What about your childhood sweetheart? You don't think about her anymore?"

Milton's hand, which was holding Maryanne's, suddenly tightened.

When she saw his stiffened expression, Maryanne's smile gradually saddened. She knew that the woman was their taboo, so why did she bring her up? Was it because she was unwilling, jealous, or was she emotionally exhausted? Maryanne did not know why, but she suddenly wanted to lay her cards on the table. She felt tired after putting up the act for so long, but once the showdown was on, she could no longer stay with him.

After Milton slowly regained his composure, he asked softly, "Why did you mention her name out of the blue?"

But, Maryanne did not stop. Instead, she pressed him harder, "She's divorced. You know that."

Milton frowned slightly and asked, "Maryanne, what are you trying to say?"

Maryanne stared into his eyes and said firmly, "I just want to know if you still love her."

"I only love her as a friend, not romantically!" Milton answered quickly, because he had not forgotten his plan. Never!

Maryanne replied understandingly, "That is to say, you won't swoop in on her because she's divorced now?"

"Hmm," Milton replied.

"But, it's a great opportunity. If you don't grasp it now, maybe another 'Patrick Hopper' will come and take her." Maryanne questioned seriously, "Are you willing to do that?"

"Why not?" Milton suddenly lost his temper. He did not know if it was because of Maryanne's harsh questions or because the topic was related to Amelia. He heard his uncontrollable voice when he boomed, "Maryanne Smith, are you my girlfriend?"

"Yes." Maryanne replied certainly.

Milton then said jeeringly, "Then why do I feel like you're pushing me away?"

Maryanne met his gaze. "Because I want to clarify the problem that has always existed between us so that I can be your lifelong companion."

Truth be told, Maryanne sympathized with Milton.

Clearly, he loved someone else. So, he could only put on an act when he was with her.

She did not mind being with him at all, but she could not bear to see him missing out on his one true love.

Therefore, Maryanne gave him a choice. He could either keep up this show or have a falling out with her to free himself.

As the seconds ticked by, he answered faintly, "All I can say is that you're overthinking. I don't have any feelings towards Amelia anymore. I now... only have you."

Was he still unwilling to face his ugly truth?

Maryanne nodded, unsure if she was feeling relieved or sombre when she said, "I got you." She felt relieved because it meant Milton would not dump her for the time being. However, she also felt sombre because he had to put on a mask against his will to act as her boyfriend.
