Chapter 2 I Won't Regret It

Linsey's words made the man's eyes narrow slightly. His voice, laced with surprise, held a sharp edge. "Ma'am, are you certain about this? I'm disabled. If you marry me, you'll regret it sooner or later."

Linsey didn't answer him directly. Instead, her gaze never wavered as she asked, "Would you ever abandon your wife for

another woman?"

"Of course not," he replied without missing a beat, his tone firm.

"Then I won't regret it either," Linsey said, her resolve unshaken. "As long as you agree, I'll marry you."

Seeing the sincerity in her eyes, the man had no reason to refuse. With a slow, deliberate nod, he replied, "Alright then, let's get married."
