Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 740

Chapter 740 Side Story: Efforts in Pursuing Her 22

Hank's apologies kept coming and coming, yet they couldn't call Yelena's rationality back.

Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of the most heartbreaking part of her story, and she couldn't help but curl into herself. "I was truly in pain at that time. I hated myself for not protecting the child. It was also then that I knew that there was no possibility left between us."

She would never be able to accept him as a potential partner if she couldn't get over her baby's death.

He caressed her head and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. "That's not true. You just need to turn around. I'm always right here waiting for you."

She raised her head and looked at his chiseled jaw and tender gaze with tearful eyes. Just then, her lips trembled in a miserable attempt at a smile. "I can't. It's too late now."

"Then, let me ask you this. Do you still love him?"

She blinked. "Of course, I love him. I've always rejected his advances, but I've never denied loving him."

When he heard that, he finally felt relieved. "Since you love him, he will surely protect you. He won't let you be hurt anymore."

Yelena rubbed her eyes, and her head felt heavy. "But… you're not him. How could you possibly know that? Anyway, it doesn't matter. My relationship with him is already over."

Hank remained silent, his fingers slightly curling, seemingly discouraged.

After that, she suddenly lifted her head and asked, "Since it's impossible between him and me now… It doesn't really matter who I marry now, does it? So, would you like to marry me?"

Her words shocked him once again.
