Chapter 1617

When Maryanne finished, she looked at Hobart with teary eyes. The pain on his face was greater than hers. Other than that, there was also intense anger, which frightened Maryanne a little.

Maryanne licked her lips at a loss. Before Hobart could express his thoughts, she said, "Hobart! All of this happened because of me. Don't get mad at anyone, and don't even think about revenge."

She had witnessed the wrath of Patrick, so she would never throw Hobart into the firepit!

Hobart's eyes trembled when he looked at Maryanne's hand. He asked in a deep voice, "Maryanne, why are you willing to tell me all of this only now?"

He knew his sister. Maryanne had been spoiled since she was a child. And whenever she encountered any trouble, she would come to Hobart immediately, especially when she was bullied.

Therefore, Hobart could not understand why Maryanne had concealed all of this from him and silently endured the pain until this moment.

"Because..." Maryanne sobbed softly. "I like Milton. I don't want to leave him, and I don't want you to cross Patrick! They can do anything for Amelia. I don't want you to get hurt."

"You silly girl!" Hobart could not help but wrap his arm around Maryanne's neck and pressed her face against his chest. "You should've told me from the beginning that you had pushed Amelia down the stairs, so I would've brought you to apologize immediately. Patrick wouldn't have tortured you like this then."

Maryanne laid in Hobart's arms and said with fear, "Hobart, I wasn't sensible back then. Fortunately, this matter did not involve you, Daddy, and Mommy. Otherwise, I won't know how to atone for my sins."

Hobart's expression turned sombre. "Enough. You've paid the price! From now on, stay by my side. I won't let anyone do anything to you anymore!"

Maryanne's felt like crying when she heard him. "Hobart, promise me! Don't take revenge on Milton and Patrick. Let's put an end to this matter for Milton and me."

Hobart lowered his head and could not help but question, "Maryanne, tell me, do you still like him?"

Maryanne frowned with sorrow. "I don't think I'll be in love with another person for the rest of my life."

Hobart replied with disappointment, "You know that all of this is fake, so why did you still get caught up in it? What did I teach you? Why are you..."

Maryanne cried harder when she saw that Hobart wanted to swear at her but could not bear to do it. "Hobart, you're the best person in this world!"

"What are you crying for? Stop crying!" Hobart raised his hand to wipe her tears but did not realize that his eyes were also reddening.

"Hobart, I admire you sometimes. You've always been the type of person who never falls in love easily even though you're surrounded by so many pretty ladies. I've never seen you get caught up in your feelings..." Maryanne looked at Hobart and smiled foolishly.

Hobart brushed her nose and said, "Do you want to learn it from me? I'll teach you!"

However, Maryanne shook her head. "During this period in England, I felt like a boat that had found a harbour. Compared to cruising around, I prefer this feeling of stability."

Hobart pulled a long face. "You're so thick! Other than your parents and siblings, everyone else is a heartbreaker. If you don't mess them around, they'll mess with you. I thought you understood this!" Hobart lectured as he glanced at Maryanne's hands.

"Hobart, you're being too extreme," Maryanne repeated to prevent Hobart from finding Milton and Patrick in a fit of hot-headedness. "I told you. This is my fault. There's no one else I can blame."

"Stupid girl!" Hobart scolded again, but he did not say anything else this time.
