Honey, You're a Billionaire by Chandler Solar

Chapter 435 Have You Looked Enough

Evan frowned. Without waiting for her to finish, he interrupted her.

"Enough. I told you I'd take accountability for that night." He didn't want to remember or bring up that night.

With her, he only saw accountability. Dawn hated that word the most, but that was the only thing she could use to hold him down. She wiped her tears as she blamed herself.

"If it weren't for me, you and Rose might have..."

"Rosie and I..." Evan couldn't hide the disappointment in his voice. Even without Dawn or the event that transpired that night, he and Rose were not meant to be.

There was never a relationship, to begin with, so why dwell on how things could've gone? When he reunited with Rose this time, he was confident she had someone in her heart. What was surprising was that it wasn't Miles. "But..." Dawn wanted to say more, but Evan was reluctant to continue the conversation. He simply repeated his usual words.

"I'll take accountability for you."

This time, he eased her worried heart better than before. Dawn bit her lip and embraced Evan. He visibly trembled when their bodies touched, but due to her relentless pleading, he didn't push her away despite his aversion. "Don't push me away, Evo. Just don't..." Her voice was shaky. Seeing that he froze in place and didn't resist her, she added eagerly, "I'm scared, Evo. I know you're marrying me because of the baby, but..."

But she was unwilling to accept that fact. Still, she couldn't say that aloud. "But I'm scared, Evo. Except for that night, we've never... Can we please stay at the hotel tonight?"

The air seemingly froze. They usually slept in the same hotel room but were separated by different beds. What Dawn implied was that she wanted to share a bed tonight.

With bated breath, she eagerly anticipated the answer she hoped for, but all she heard was, "You should go rest."

Yes. Just her. He wanted her to check into the hotel alone.

Dawn tightened her grip on his hands. Evan frowned, and after some hesitation, he offered, "I'll drop you off at the hotel."
