CHAPTER 573 I CAN WAIT
Evelyn clenched her fists tightly, filling her ears with his voice.
Disgusting?
It shouldn’t be. Evelyn was angry at him for kissing her without saying a word, but she didn’t feel disgusted. After capturing her feelings, she became even more anxious.
Why did this happen?
Could it be that she had become so familiar with him after spending more than three years together?
Bert saw all her reactions with great interest. He was at a loss, nervous, excited, confused, and scared. His almond-shaped eyes were like a frightened deer, which made his heart itch.
The smile in the man’s eyes deepened. “So, Evelyn, don’t define your feelings for me as self-righteous. Humans are high-level animals. They love and hate each other. Most of the time, they can’t see through their hearts.”
She kept her head down, so Bert raised her chin and forced her to look straight at him. “You don’t have to be afraid, and you don’t have to fear. I won’t force you to make any choice. I just hope you can allow me to take care of you and Lucas, and you just need to accept it. Don’t deliberately push me away. Let nature take its course.”
The man’s body was as tall and straight as a tree. “Even if you don’t consider yourself, Lucas is already old enough. He needs someone who can give him a sense of security.”
All kinds of emotions rushed to the top of her head because of these words, and her eyes trembled Huston.
Lucas was three years old. He was not old, but he had his thoughts. He was going to kindergarten at the end of the year. Evelyn didn’t expect that he would be so worried. If he saw other children with their fathers in kindergarten, would he also yearn for such an existence?
He must yearn for it, just like when he went to the amusement park; he would occasionally watch other children being held by their parents in a daze.
Evelyn could do everything to be good to her, but no matter how good she was, she would never replace her father in her heart. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
It was undeniable that Lucas liked Bert very much. On the one hand, he could feel Bert’s love for him. On the other hand, it was because of his admiration and desire for the male elders.
This had nothing to do with age. It was just an instinct.
“You know very well what Lucas needs, so don’t push me out blindly. Think about it carefully, okay?”
When Bert first kept her by his side, he didn’t want anything. He felt he treated this woman a little special, but he couldn’t feel
what was special about her.
After more than three years, not only did the number of thoughts in his heart not decrease, but it kept increasing as if a small hand was constantly scratching his heart. He couldn’t stand it, especially when Evelyn became more mature and charming.
“You know that I can’t give you a response, Bert. Why do you do these things for me?” The woman frowned slightly, with a hint of sadness between her eyebrows.
If it were any other woman, she would be eager to get close to him, but Evelyn just couldn’t do it. She didn’t resist him, but she didn’t love him. The boundary of this kind of relationship was very unclear. She couldn’t indulge herself.
“I have a marriage and a child. With your conditions, you can find a better one.”
The man frowned and didn’t want to hear her belittle herself. “I, Bert, have lived for more than 30 years and have never cared about what others think. I know very well what I want. What you need to do is not to worry about this but to treat me as a real man.”
”
Evelyn stared at his handsome face. It was hard to imagine that the man who had pressed a gun against her three years ago had one day confessed his love to her.
Even more unimaginable was that she was slightly lost in such an atmosphere.
Bert suppressed the restlessness in his body and took a step
back, giving her some space to rest assured. “I won’t force you. You can take your time to think about it. I can wait.”
