His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 977

"I will always be honest with you. Please Trust me." Roger smiled bitterly and gazed at the exasperated look on Helin's face. He continued, "Helin, I know I shouldn't do like this, but..." Saying this, he hesitated for a while and then went on, "I am doing this only for your own good. Do you understand me?" Helin stared at him with her mouth wide open trying to understand Roger's stance behind such an action.

After he finished speaking, he stared at Helin, waiting to see her reaction.

"Are you saying that you are doing this for me?" Helin said. She mustered some strength to come out of the state of shock. She gazed straight into Roger's eyes and paused for a while. Then she said, "Don't talk nonsense to me. First, you lied to me and even blackmailed my Dad. And now you told me that you are doing this for me. Do you think I will believe in what you said?"

Roger's face broke into a sardonic smile as he said, "I know you would not trust me." He looked back into Helin's eyes trying to look sincere and continued, "But this is the fact. I am doing this so that I can be with you forever."

Helin remained stern and unmoved by his word as she had decided not to trust him anymore.

Helin had already started considering Roger as an unreliable man and she could not find a reason for believing in what he said.

However, Roger did not want to give up so easily. Looking into Helin's eyes, Roger said again, "Helin, I am sure even you are aware of the fact that your dad doesn't want you to be with me. But do you know why he is against the two of us being together?"

"Why?" Helin asked creasing her brows. She explored all possible reasons inside her head to justify the accusation that Roger had put on Heron. Honestly, she could not come to a conclusion.

"It is just because I am not brilliant enough," Roger sneered impatiently. He rasped and paused for a while before starting again, "I am just a mere actor in this company. And no matter how hard I try and how much effort I make, I cannot change the fact. But you are different. The company that I work for is your family property. Even if you quit your present job as an actor, it will hardly make any difference in your affluent lifestyle."

"So what?" asked Helin as she laughed scornfully. She glared at Roger and then said in a sarcastic tone, "No one can choose his or her own background and this cannot be the reason for you to do that. You can't convince me with such an excuse." Helin fixed her stare on Roger demanding a reply from him.

Roger screwed his eyes to suppress his frustration and then forced a faint smile. "Please let me finish my sentence first. Helin, calm down!" "It is really easy for you to call it as an absurd excuse. But if you look at it from my position, the difference between us in our family background is a gap I can never overcome. Helin, I know it does not matter to you but I have to map a huge height to come up to the level to make myself truly eligible for you. Only then, people won't think I need to live off a woman."

As he finished his sentence, Roger looked into Helin's eyes and added in a sincere tone, "Helin, I am a man. I also need to preserve my self-esteem. Can you understand me now?"

"What the hell are you trying to tell me?" asked Helin blurted immediately in an impatient tone that even startled Roger for a moment. She glared at him and said, "Roger, just say it. Don't beat about the bush anymore. You are wasting my time. I need to get your point now." Her no-nonsense attitude, demanding for an immediate answer was not something Roger was expecting at this moment.

"Don't be so anxious, Helin. Calm down," Roger persuaded in a polite manner. He gave a wry smile and tried to explain, "Helin, I have really thought about it and this is the best way all these issues can be resolved. If I become a shareholder of this company, then we can be with each other forever. That is why I behaved like that. I just said those words on purpose, because I don't want him to regard me as a selfish person. I just want to relieve the besieged by besieging the base of the besiegers." He sounded utterly sincere and earnest as he spoke. Helin remained silent as she processed his logic in her brain.

Seeing that Helin was lost in her thoughts, Roger came forward and took her hand in his own hand. Clasping her hand with both his hands, Roger said, "Helin, you have to trust me. I really love you so much. I want to marry you."

Heron witnessed the conversation between Roger and Helin but chose not to interfere. He knew that as long as Helin herself was ready to give in, no one could change her mind.

Helin felt the warmth of Roger's hands around her own that even warmed her heart. As she looked into Roger's eyes, she could feel the sincerity as well as helplessness. For a moment she felt as if she was caught in a spell by his words that she was almost ready to believe in them.

Then suddenly, Roger's words and his tone of speaking as he spoke to Heron echoed in her mind. Helin had been hiding inside the room when Roger spoke to her father and the way he spoke to him came as a hard-hitting reality to Helin who just could not get it out of her head no matter how much Roger tried to justify.

And that was it. Helin was whipped back to reality as soon as she remembered all that. Immediately, she shook his hands off and sneered at Roger, saying, "Roger, do you still think I will believe in you after all these things I have been through?"

"Helin, don't say like this," Roger muttered in a shaky voice trying to pacify her. Roger was at a loss of words to convince her and even felt flurried as she shook off his hands without any hesitation.

Taking a glance at her, Roger said anxiously, "Helin, please give me a chance. You have to trust me this time. I am not telling a lie."
