Healing my disabled husband novel Chapter 1078

Chapter 1078 They Seem to Have a Natural Soul Connection

Nathalie held her fingers up in front of Emanuel's eyes, the tips of her fingers red from being squeezed too tightly.

Emanuel took her hand in his and said, "I'm sorry. I just wanted to hold you."

Nathalie understood now. She had been overthinking things earlier. If Emanuel had ever been in love before, she would have written his name backwards.

"You can't be a little gentler with me?" Nathalie asked him. "I want to be your girlfriend."

"Teach me," Emanuel replied.

Nathalie scoffed and said, "That's a dangerous thing to say. Usually when a woman teaches a man something like that, he ends up becoming someone else's man."

Emanuel furrowed his brow at the convoluted statement.

"I only love you," he said firmly while looking into Nathalie's eyes.

She was taken aback by how serious he sounded when she was just teasing him moments ago. Was this really appropriate? But Nathalie had grown accustomed to the way Emanuel spoke - even though it could be confusing at times - because whenever he spoke earnestly like this, it stirred something within her heart that she couldn't quite explain.

She liked feeling this way around him.

Without any more fussing around with Emanuel, Nathalie straightened up and adjusted her sitting position so that she was closer to him than before - close enough for their breaths to mingle if they leaned forward even just slightly more towards each other's faces.

Looking directly into Emanuel's eyes again, Nathalie asked, "So will you try being my boyfriend?"

"Yeah," came the simple response from Emanuel.

It was such an uncomplicated answer but it made Nathalie smile anyway as she moved closer still until their noses touched.

"Nice meeting you then…boyfriend," Nathalie whispered without opening her mouth yet.
