Her Precious Baby

Chapter 131

Angeline’s heart clenched at Evander’s words. She dared not even raise her head to look at him. Internally, she was flailing as though she was desperately trying to escape a trap.

She stammered, “I-I don’t know what you mean.”

She hoped changing the topic would deter Evander from his original line of questioning.

More importantly, she could not put a name to her feelings toward Evander.

That being said, Angeline admitted that her heart fluttered when she was around Evander. However, she was simply not ready to enter a relationship.

Angeline got to her feet, attempting to leave. However, Evander promptly foiled her attempt. He grabbed her elbow and swiveled on the couch, pulling her into his embrace.

“Oof!”

A muffled grunt escaped Angeline’s lips.

Evander stared intently into her eyes, and she fumbled under the heat of his gaze.

He declared, “I’m a businessman, Angeline. I don’t waste my time on frivolous matters.”

Even a fool would understand his intentions. Alas, Angeline had no choice but to respond.

“Why… and that person is me?”

She thought she must be dreaming. After all, Evander could have any wealthy and elegant socialite he wanted with a mere hook of his finger.

Still not breaking eye contact with her, Evander declared firmly, “No particular reason. I just want you.”

I just want you…

His short reply held so much conviction and crumbled Angeline’s defenses completely. He was clearly determined to dispel her doubts about his sincerity.

The room abruptly fell into silence. Angeline could only hear the furious pounding of her heart. Her vision began to blur as tears pricked her eyes.

All these years, she had suffered from humiliation alone and trusted no one. As such, she never imagined meeting a man who would protect and treasure her.
