I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 770 Made the Heart Skip Faster

After hearing Daphne's words, Louis stared at her in silence, his lips curled in doubt as he looked into her eyes.

In the meantime, she returned his gaze with determination gleaming in her eyes. She wanted him to know that he should not tie himself down regarding certain matters.

Following a brief period of silence, the lights around them dimmed.

"What about you?" he asked softly, seemingly out of nowhere.

Daphne stared blankly at Louis for a moment after he asked that question, and it took her a while to figure out what he was getting at. "Me… What?"

"Did you reject me because I should not have been responsible for certain consequences?"

After hearing this, she gaped at him in the dim light, not knowing what to say. Is this a trick question? I can't give a satisfactory response to his question because there is none. After all, the fact that I reject him has nothing to do with this. Why does he mention I turned him down? Also, why does he suddenly bring it up again? In the few seconds since the silence had descended, millions of thoughts raced through her mind, and she had never felt so trapped that she could not utter a word. When his phone finally rang at that crucial moment, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, the stairwell lit up again as the lights turned on in response to the sound. Consequently, Louis could take in Daphne's lost and panicked expression.

However, she seized the chance to look away and said, "We've been away for quite a while. We… We should head back."

She had just turned around when he remarked, "There's a lingering odor of smoke on me."

After hearing that, Daphne whirled around to face him. "In that case—"

"Can you help me?" Louis interrupted.

"How do I do that?" she asked, puzzled.

As soon as she uttered those words, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his embrace. Then, he said, "Your perfume should cover up the odor."
