Chapter 181: I'm not perfect

I pushed him in an instant when I heard his question.

"What kind of question is that?"

"Because I haven't heard you say it back,"

"Seriously?"

"Hmhm..." he hummed and to my surprise, he held both my hands and his face turned serious all of a sudden."Sweetheart, I know I'm not perfect. I've never been a perfect father to our daughter, or a perfect boyfriend for these past few months and I know I was far from

being a perfect husband to you back then---"

"Wait a minute---what are you talking about? Why are you suddenly discussing perfection?"

"Because I know, if you were given the chance to go back in time you would choose David over me because he's perfect."

My mouth hung open when he started to speak.

"He's perfect in everything, from his looks, attitude and most of all, he has never hurt you. You have a better future in him than in me."

"Luke---"

"But sweetheart, I'm here, I've changed. I love you and even though I know I was far from being David, I'll do everything to be the man you deserve and the father that Cali deserves."

"So you heard our conversation," it was not a question, but a confirmation. The conversation I was referring to was the one Jack and I had in the kitchen a few days ago. "Yes," he nodded.

"But you said you didn't hear us talking? Wait, which part of our conversation did you start hearing?"

"From the moment Jack asked you about David,"

"So that means you heard---"
