No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 667

Dustin furrowed his brows, his voice filled with concern, "Felicia, I know you're still grappling with the loss of Ernest, but don't let it consume you. If you're feeling lonely or troubled, you can always come to me."

His gaze was intense, and his expression sincere. His feelings were genuine, yet his love was becoming dangerously obsessive.

I lowered my eyes slightly, "Dustin, I don't want to cause a rift between you and Conrad. He's already reached out to me..."

"Don't worry about that. I'll take care of it," Dustin said, reaching out to hold my hand.

The touch was warm and comforting, yet it sent a shiver down my spine. I wanted to pull away but restrained myself, meeting his gaze with a mix of fear and uncertainty, "Dustin, you know your parents' stance on us... They're against it too..."

He shook his head gently, "I already told you, missing my chance with you once was enough. This time, even if the whole world opposes us, it won't matter."

Dustin's love was bordering on obsession.

My heart raced, and I withdrew my hand, rubbing it against my jeans under the table, "But that's not what I want."

"Is it that you don't want it, or is it that you can't accept me?" Dustin asked softly.
