Chapter 183 Cut it out

“Marvin, I appreciate you saving me, but…” Sarah paused, searching for the right words. “You know, it’s usually just family or romantic partners who live together. And, you can’t just go around kissing me as you please. Surely, you’re aware of this, right?”

“Would you rather have me as your spouse or partner?” Marvin asked. The memory of Marcelo’s taunt from last night echoed in

his mind.

Firmly holding Sarah’s hand, he declared, “I’m going to marry you, Sarah.”

Sarah stood there, speechless.

The sight of a charming, confident man proposing was something many dream of.

Since she was young, Sarah had imagined a man sincerely asking her, “Sarah, will you marry me?”

But the man she pictured wasn’t Marvin.

Acting on impulse, she questioned, “Marvin, do you like me?”

“Yes, I like you,” Marvin responded without a second thought.

Sarah’s heart fluttered.

She had heard the word “like” numerous times.

But it always ended up meaning nothing.

“I’m sorry,” she said, gently removing Marvin’s hand. “Marvin, since you’ve recovered, you’ve become overly reliant on me. This ‘liking‘ you’re feeling, it’s just your mind playing tricks. I can’t accept that.”

Marvin frowned, clearly unhappy..

She doubted his words.

“Do you have feelings for someone else?” he speculated.

It seemed clear to him who this other person might be.

“No,” she replied firmly. Speaking of Quincy, Sarah remained composed. “Quincy’s with Alma now. He and I are nothing more than acquaintances.”

As Sarah looked at Marvin, she felt a sense of liberation from her past ties with Quincy.
