True Love Waits

Chapter 1086 Redeem Their Wishes

"Yes," Sheffield admitted honestly. His uncomfortable fidgeting was an implication that he wasn't too keen on talking about Gillian, and he tried to sidestep the topic.

However, Evelyn wasn't going to let him slip away so easily. She raised an eyebrow, feigning curiosity and said, "Please tell me more about your romantic stories from when you were in school!"

"Romantic stories? I wasn't that popular to be honest. In fact, I don't have any romantic stories from school. Admittedly, my relationship with her may have been close, but I don't think I was ever in love with her

But if I had known that I would meet someone like you in the future, I wouldn't have gotten close to any of those women in the first place." In hindsight, their love story would have gone a lot smoother, but everything in life that was ever worth having, was worth every bit of the hardship.

Evelyn curled her lips. "Well, I have good news for you. You now have a thousand chances to make it up to me."

"Then, are you happy now?"

"Of course I am!" Although she knew that he was just coaxing her, Evelyn was still very happy, deep down.

"That's good!"

Hand in hand, they took a walk around the campus, appreciating every second of this wonderful moment they were sharing together. Evelyn listened to him attentively as he told her all about his past life. When Sheffield mentioned his classmates, he would pretend to be annoyed and tell her how all the girls in his school tried to woo him back then.

Sheffield also took her to see the stadium, where he ran with her on his back on the basketball court.

Time flew wondrously when they were together, never having to deal with work or the other trifles of life. Their journey together as a couple was one filled with joy and love.

Right after they got back to Y City, the two of them went to the Temple of Dharma first instead of heading back home.
