Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1517 But I Love You

Edmund’s candid words caused all the colors on Tillie’s face to drain away.

Standing behind him, Tillie felt as though she was hit by a bucket of cold water. It doused all the courage and hopes that she had held on. While staring at him, her face had turned pale all over again.

“Even so, can’t we live out our days in peace?” she pleaded, unwilling to give up.

However, Edmund’s smirk widened.

“Are you dreaming? Has all the luxury goods gotten into your head?”

“No, I sincerely meant what I said. Edmund, I know you don’t like me, and I’m not worthy of you, but don’t you need a family too? If you want to establish yourself in Jadeborough and expand the influence of the Cooper family, don’t you need to marry someone sooner or later? Does it make a difference who you marry?”

Tillie suddenly realized that she had calmed down.

Having lost all hope and no longer caring about the consequences, she gained the courage to go all out. Her mental state allowed her to be more shrewd than ever.

Edmund was stunned.

Even though I’m staying by your side, you can treat me as your partner. I no longer want to go through the hassle of remarriage again. I’m also sure that you’re unwilling to spend time marrying another girl, am I
