HONEY, Love Me One More Time novel Chapter 135

“Estelle,” Mr. Mysterious interrupted her.
Biting her lower lip, Estelle took a deep breath and waited for him to continue.
Mr. Mysterious then gently took her hand and pressed it against his heart.
He was only wearing a shirt, and Estelle could feel the warmth of his chest and his fast and powerful heartbeats.
“Can you feel my love now?” Mr. Mysterious bent forward and whispered in her ear in a sexy voice.
The next moment, Estelle’s ears, which were the most sensitive parts of her body, turned red immediately.
Mr. Mysterious seemed to know that her ears were very sensitive, and he deliberately got closer to her ear and whispered again, “Can you feel it?” 
As he spoke, Estelle could feel his hot breath exhale on her ear. 
This was the first time they had such intimate contact. And in fluster and shyness, she wanted to break loose from his embrace.
However, Mr. Mysterious didn’t give her a chance. As if knowing what she wanted to do, he pressed her hand on his chest with one hand and held her waist more tightly with the other. For fear of touching her incision, he controlled his strength well and meanwhile made her unable to break free at all.
Subconsciously, Estelle wanted to put her hand between their chest to prevent him from getting too close to her, but Mr. Mysterious seemed to have seen through her thoughts. 
He put his foot between Estelle’s feet and gently kicked her foot. 
The next moment, Estelle slipped, lost her balance, and was about to fall. Almost as a reflex action, she wrapped her arms around his neck at once.
Mr. Mysterious then held her all in his arms again.
Estelle was a little annoyed and said with a flush on her cheeks, “Sir, when did you also become so...”
He chuckled and asked, “What did I become?”
“So...”
“So what?”
‘So bad…’ Estelle bit her lip and thought to herself.
“Estelle, don’t speak ill of me in your heart. I know what you are thinking,” Mr. Mysterious teased her.
Hearing this, Estelle was startled and looked up at him with her eyes wide open. However, it was already dark, and she couldn’t see anything. 
She could only feel that his lips were slowly moving away from her ears, and then he pressed his forehead against hers.
“Sir, can you do mind-reading?” Estelle suddenly asked.
“Maybe. But I can only read your mind. I always know what you are thinking and what you want to say or do,” Mr. Mysterious briefly answered.
“Then, if one day I leave you, will you be able to know where I have gone?”
“Estelle,” Mr. Mysterious spoke in a husky whisper. “You promised me before that you would never leave me.”
She licked her lips and nodded. “Yes, I did. But I’m afraid.”
“What are you afraid of?”
“Many things,” Estelle said. “I don’t know who you are and what you look like. I don’t know any of your friends. If you disappear one day, I won’t even know where to find you. Sir, I can’t do mind-reading. If you leave me one day in the future, I won’t be able to see you anymore for the rest of my life. Or even if you show up in front of me, I can’t recognize you.”
Mr. Mysterious patted her on the back gently and comforted her, “Estelle, don’t think too much. I won’t leave you. As long as you still want to be with me, I will never leave you.”
“Sir, you know what? My ex-husband had promised the same words to me,” Estelle said.
“Oh, really?” Mr. Mysterious asked in a flat tone. It was hard to tell his emotion from his voice. 
“Yes,” Estelle said and nodded in his arms. “Maybe it was because he was too young back then and didn’t know what his promise meant that he said that casually. Sir, the person who makes a promise to others is always the one who forgets the promise first.”
Mr. Mysterious thought about the meaning of her words for a while and said to her seriously, “Estelle, I’m different from him.”
“I know,” Estelle said, “Back then, he was only a young man of, twenty years old. It’s normal that he has forgotten what he has promised.”
Hearing this, Mr. Mysterious chuckled and said, “So, you mean I’m old?”
“No, no, no. I didn’t mean that...” Estelle explained immediately. “I know you are different from him. You are a mature man who knows the meaning of a promise and won’t make a promise casually.”
“Yes,” Mr. Mysterious said and kissed her forehead softly. “Who said you can’t do mind-reading? You can read my mind, my Estelle.”
‘My Estelle.’ These two ordinary words tugged at Estelle’s heartstrings.
And in her heart, these two words were more romantic than “I love you”.
Since Mr. Mysterious and she knew each other, he had never said “I love you” to her, but she could feel that he loved her and he had taken her as a very important person in his life.
“So, are you Justin?”
“I’m just your Mr. Mysterious.”
“You are my Mr. Mysterious at night. But who are you in the daytime?”
“In the daytime, I will hide in a corner where nobody knows. And no one will know my existence.” 
“Sir, I don’t understand what you mean.” 
Without replying to her, Mr. Mysterious bent to carry her in his arms. His warm embrace made Estelle feel a sense of security. 
Immersed in his unique gentleness, she gradually relaxed her hold on his neck and leaned her head against his chest comfortably.
“Estelle, you will understand it in the future. It’s not the right time to let you know everything now,” Mr. Mysterious said and walked toward the main bedroom.
After entering the bedroom, he sat on the edge of the bed, still carrying her in his arms.
“Estelle, I can’t promise you when I’ll let you know all the truth because I’m also afraid,” he said.
“Sir, you are already a powerful man. Will you also be afraid of something?” Estelle asked.
“Of course. I’m just an average Joe and will also be afraid,” Mr. Mysterious said softly as he rested his chin on the top of her head. “Let’s not talk about it. Today is the first day that we’ve lived here. We finally have a home. Today is a good day. Look, the stars in the sky are very bright.”
Hearing this, Estelle turned her head and looked out of the window. It was dark outside, and the shining stars studded the night sky.
‘Yes, today is a good day. And it is... September 3rd. I will remember today forever,’ she thought with a happy smile.
