“Don't tell me you like men,” Payne stared at him, “I really can't figure out why you don't like me. I'm not ugly, and we're well-matched in social and economic status. Besides that, both of our parents are good friends. We're a match. I don't understand why you always reject me.”

Joan sighed helplessly. There was no reason for liking and disliking a person.

If Joan loved a person, he would not care about her identity, even though she was a civilian.

“It could be.”

Payne widened her eyes and made a backward step instantly, “W-what could it be?”

Joan looked at her appalled expression and replied, “I could be liking a man.”

Payne was speechless.

Joan's words were like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky to Payne.

“The spreading rumour is true? That's why you haven't been looking for a woman?” Payne swallowed hard.

Joan did not want her to wait for him and delayed her marriage. He also wanted to have peace and quietness, so he nodded, “Yes.”

Payne widened her eyes and stared at him for a few seconds without saying anything as if she was shocked by his answer.

She was reluctant to accept this answer.

When Joan said he liked man, her first reaction was to believe him because he had a clean life that she had never seen a woman around him. However, Payne liked him.

“It's okay. Even if you're gay, I'll still want to make you straight,” Payne walked over to grab his arm again, “I like you, no matter what your sexual orientation, I like you.”

Joan was speechless.

“Payne...”

“I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen,” she covered her ears with her hands and continuously shook her head. She knew Joan would say something to reject her again, so she was not going to listen, “I like you, and I've liked you for so many years, and I'm not going to like anyone else anymore.”

Joan was speechless.
