Chapter 1611

Milton had never expected that that was the reason. In response, his refined handsome face darkened.

All of a sudden, he was not in a rush to drive. He stared at Maryanne and asked in a strange tone, "You feel uncomfortable when you see him? Don't tell me that you still have feelings for him?"

Maryanne gawked at him incredulously. Others might not know what happened, but Milton certainly did. Her hands were injured under Patrick's order! She was terrified of Patrick, so how could she still have feelings for him?!

Did Milton feel pleasure in insulting her this way?

After chewing her lower lip hard, Maryanne's pale cheeks reddened. She managed to suppress her anger and replied, "Other than awkwardness, I don't have any other feelings for him!"

"Really?" Milton did not know what was wrong with himself as he added unexpectedly, "You used to pester him like a fangirl of his, didn't you?"

"Milton Cook!" Maryanne could not bear it any longer and glare at him with tears welled up in her eyes. "You know I like you! Why do you have to use Patrick to hurt me?"

Milton was stunned by her tears. Wait, was he competing with Patrick because he was jealous?

How could this be possible?

He was only soft-hearted towards Maryanne. He was not interested in her! "Answer me. Why aren't you replying?" Maryanne was genuinely angry. She felt that Milton and Patrick had colluded in making her life a struggle!

"What... What do you want me to say?" Milton asked, flustered. If Maryanne was listening intently, she would have noticed that his tone had become much gentler.

"You said I have feelings for Patrick!" Maryanne asked indignantly, livid, "I want to know how did you come to the conclusion that I still like him? Oh. Do you think that I was playing hard to get when I hid behind you when I saw him? Is that it?"

"I..." Milton was at loss.

"I, Maryanne Smith, have always been outright in relationships. I admit that I used to like him and had pursued him recklessly. But that's in the past! But now, I like you, and the person I want to be with all the time is you, Milton Cook!" When Maryanne spoke the last two words from the bottom of her heart, she almost shocked Milton's soul.

He found that the fury that had just emerged in him had gradually dissipated because of her words. In fact, he even felt happier.

But this did not make sense!

He was supposed to guide Maryanne to tell him the truth of how she had pushed Amelia down the stairs. So why did the topic shift to Patrick? Also, it was him who initiated it.

After a silent sigh, Milton's voice softened. "Maryanne, I'm sorry. It was my fault. I was paranoid and wasn't thinking straight. I've wrongly accused you."

Maryanne was still hurt by what he said. She could not help but mock herself, "To you, I'm just a crazy woman who goes around flirting with any handsome guy I see anyway. I understand. You don't have to explain!"

After that, Maryanne unfastened her seat belt and opened the car door, ready to get off.

"Maryanne!" Milton panicked. He wanted to hold her, but she pushed her way. So, he could only watch her get out of the car.
