Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 69

Bailey's body tensed slightly as the smile on her face slowly disappeared. “Did you misspoke, Edmund? Or are my ears playing tricks on me?”

Edmund stepped forward and grabbed her arms, staring straight into her eyes. “I didn't, and your ears aren't playing tricks on you. I love you, Bay. I want to marry you. If you think organizing a wedding is too sudden, we can get engaged first.”

Subconsciously, she avoided his passionate gaze. Her stiff lips twitched before she uttered in a shy voice, “I-I'm not ready yet, Edmund. I think... I think you should give me more time.”

That made him quite panicked.

He didn't really want to force her, but if Simon returned and she learned the truth, then a relationship between him and her might be impossible.

“Bay...” Gently holding her face, he slowly moved his lips closer to her scarlet ones.

Right before their lips came into contact with each other, Bailey suddenly put her hand on his shoulder and pushed him away slightly. “I-I'm still not completely used to this kind of intimacy, Edmund. Can you give me more time? How about a month? No, half a month. If you wait half a month, I'll definitely agree to your proposal.”

Edmund brushed his finger past her tender lips gently.

Day and night, he thought about kissing her lovingly. Her existence had been rooted deep into his soul.

However, he knew he mustn't force her because it would only achieve the opposite effect of what he wanted. If he appeared to be too unreasonable, she would be scared away.

“Very well. I'll wait for you for another half a month. I truly do love you, Bay. There's no one else in this world besides you who I want to marry.”
