Hearing that instantly had Harvey making up his mind.
However, before he could even voice his thoughts, he heard Arielle saying, “Then you should abort it.”
At that, he pushed the door open and entered the room, unable to hold himself back anymore. “Sonia, let’s get married…”
He had heard Arielle mention Sonia’s name before, and he thought it was a nice name.
Sonia gaped at him, unable to speak properly. “G-Get married?”
Gazing at her, he promised seriously, “Yes. Let’s get married. I won’t let you regret marrying me.”
I won’t let her regret her decision if she agrees to marry me.
When he finished his sentence, he stared at Sonia patiently while waiting for her response.
At last, Sonia finally spoke, “Arielle once told me I should marry someone I like. Likewise, the man has to love me wholeheartedly. Otherwise, I’ll be the one suffering in the future. This is the first time we’re meeting each other officially. Not only do we not know each other well, but we hardly have any feelings for each other. Don’t you think it’s too hasty for us to get married now?”
After listening to her, he realized her words made sense.
Though he had a good impression of her, he did not really have feelings for her.
Nonetheless, he did not think it was right for him to give up just like that.
“Why don’t we try dating each other for some time? We can get married if we actually develop feelings for each other. Is that okay?” Harvey suggested softly while gazing into Sonia’s eyes, worried she would reject his suggestion.
After a moment of silence, Sonia said, “One month. Let’s try it for a month. If we still don’t have feelings for each other and have no intention to proceed to the next step by then, I’ll abort the child…”
Sonia did not want to marry Harvey straightaway, but accepting the suggestion was a good sign.
