Her Precious Baby

“Yes, I do like you.”

Evander’s eyes sparkled with joy upon her words. He brushed her cheeks with his long slender fingers.

I can finally protect Angeline as her boyfriend.

To him, it felt better than signing a million-dollar contract. This feels magical.

However, Angeline frowned and turned away to avoid his touch.

“Mr. Golding, I know where I stand. So what if I like you? Have you ever thought of our future?” she sneered.

“I will make our relationship publicly known if you’ve thought this through.”

Evander enunciated as if this was the only way to show his sincerity.

“If you make our relationship public and your grandma objects, just like Sylas had said, are you going to turn your back on your family for my sake?”

Angeline’s tone was dead serious.

She couldn’t tell if Evander really liked her or if he simply found a sense of novelty in her.

What would I do if Evander lost interest in me one day and wanted to get out of my life?

She thought Evander would pull away after hearing her out, but instead, he cradled her face between his hands and locked eyes with her.

“Angeline, you’ve got to have more self-confidence. You have a great family background.”

Instead of making empty promises to protect her, he gave her gentle words of encouragement and reminded her that she would be perfectly fine even if she were alone.

This was the answer Angeline needed to hear.
