Chapter 206 He Died in the Car Accident

I was startled by Carter's words, and it was only then that I really took a good look at him.

He wore a deep gray wool sweater with a high collar, and from this close, I could clearly see the fine, soft fibers of the wool.

The sweater added a layer of warmth to his otherwise cool demeanor.

Years ago, I had already known that Carter's looks were the most relined I'd ever seen in a man. He wasn't just handsome-his features were sharply defined, almost sculpted, his face exuding a quiet elegance.

I had never met his biological mother, but I had heard whispers that he had mixed heritage.

Still, he retained his Cobleau roots in his appearance-though his skin was fair and his features were deep-set, his eyes were darker than most.

When those eyes looked at you coldly, they conveyed an aura of power without the need for anger.

But when he gazed at you with tenderness, it felt like the male lead of a romance novel stepping out of a screen into real life.

On top of everything, his voice was magnetic, impossible to resist.

I felt a wave of panic, my heart racing as I nervously parted my lips, unsure how to respond.

"You... When did you...." I stammered.

Carter's fingers gently brushed my face, and he said, "Zoey, I originally wanted to wait until you were older, until you were ready to accept me, before we talked about this. But these past two days without you, I couldn't sleep. When I was awake, it was you on my mind. When I slept, you were still there in my

dreams."

His confession, so direct and passionate, made it impossible to ignore the intense tension in the air. I was completely overwhelmed, unable to control the situation, my breath quickening.

He rested his chin against my neck, his warm breath making my body tremble.

"Zoey, I can't wait any longer. I want you to be my wife, completely. Will you?" he asked.

I looked into his eyes, so close now, and saw not the pride and arrogance I was used to, but a vulnerable yearning.

It was that vulnerability that made it impossible for me to refuse.

"Can you ... give me some time to think it over? I'm sorry, but I can't give you an answer right now."

Everything was happening too fast. Too quickly.

I knew that my reasons for marrying him weren't entirely pure. Along with the journey, Carter had helped me a lot, and it was only natural for a man of his age to have certain desires, so I understood his proposition.

In my past life, I had loved a man so deeply, and it had led to my tragic death.

I couldn't risk my feelings again for an uncertain

When a woman loves the wrong man, the consequences are severe. I had learned that lesson the hard way.

What's worse, the man who had killed me was still free and I had no idea what other plots he might be involved in. I didn't want to get tangled up in matters of the heart again.

But Carter had been good to me, and I would still need his help in the future.

I bit my lip, making a difficult decision. "If you really want this, I can help you,"

Perhaps he saw the hesitation in my eyes, as he sighed softly and gently pressed my head to his chest.

"It's alright. I can wait. I won't rush you. But tell me, would you hate it if I kissed you?":

I thought for a moment, then answered honestly. "No, I wouldn't."

That's good. We'll take it step by step, afright?"

I nodded obediently, understanding his compromise. "Okay."

He rubbed my head gently and said, "I've packed everything. Philippa told me you made soup for me?"

"Yeah, I'm not sure if you'll like it though."

Tlike whatever you make. I'm hungry!

Then I'll go back to the kitchen."

The weight on my shoulders lightened, and I happily ran back to the kitchen.

Carter didn't pressure me. He was different from other men. I also wanted to do something for him in return.

Bill and Philippa weren't in the living room, and I didn't want to meddle in their situation.

When dinner was ready, I went upstairs to call them.

Mom still looked upset, and she had a new diamond necklace adorning her neck.

It was obvious who had forced it on her.

But she wasn't the same as before. She looked at me and said, "Zoey, can you take this necklace off for me?"
